  6. To READ or WRITE: A.

*99 works for dialup however I've never needed to press any keys using an NX-586, it just connects

You should try the 586, it's about 20 times faster, odd thing is uploading alpha keypads is still pathetically slow

It does upload all modules however it appears that the speed to upload alpha keypad descriptors is no different than using a standard modem which is odd

The rest of the upload is extremely fast
