Please make sure the following two items are true before proceeding...
(1) Your modem is NOT set to "Auto Answer" mode (REGISTER S0 MUST EQUAL 0)
(2) You have already put all relevant DATA commands for the BBS into NVRAM

Note that, generally, fax (AT+F) commands CANNOT be stored in NVRAM.

Here is the relevant information...

[AdeptXBBS] Config -> Active Line -> General Settings

  "ATO on DATA" should NOT have a check mark!
                       ^^^
(Note that some Class 1 modems might need the check, but only put it there
if you seem to have trouble receiving data calls once you make all the
changes in this document.  The Optima 288 will NOT need it, but older
Hayes Accura 14400's might.)

  Answer .... ATA|
  Init ...... v~^~ATHZ|
              AT+FCLASS=1|
              AT+FAE=1|
              AT&C1&D2S95=43|
  Dial Pref.. AT+FCLASS=0DT
  Dial Suf... |

  Answer on Ring: 2
   Ring Response: RING

: +fclass=0dt              enables data mode operation on outgoing calls
: +fclass=1                enables fax mode operation
: +fae=1                   enables adaptive answering (fax+data mode op)
: &c1&d2s95=43             is recommended by adept for modem operation

[AdeptXBBS] Config -> Active Line -> Dial Strings

  If you make use of any of these special dial strings, they too must start
  with AT+FCLASS=0 followed by any special modems commands, then followed by
  the DT dial command.  The suffix can remain "|".

After making the changes, you will need to do a SHUTDOWN (of Adept, not OS/2)!

You will need to create a file called FAX1.CMD in your d:\Adept directory.
(The "1" is for #Line 1.  If you are using #Line 2, it would be FAX2.CMD.)

FAX1.CMD
~~~~~~~~
@d:\bgfax\bgfax2 /fhay:713_555_1212 d:\bgfax h%1 z /dis:79

The 713_555_1212 is your BBS phone number.  You will need to use underscores
to represent spaces.  "d:\bgfax" is the directory that faxes will be received
into.  "h%1" is how Adept passes the com handle to BGFAX/2.  The "z" saves
faxes in ZFAX-style format.  The "/dis:79" limits incoming faxes to 9600 bps
instead of 14400 bps, as this seems to be more reliable with the Hayes.

If you have trouble with /FHAY, you might try /FAX:713_555_1212 instead.
