howto: Simulate a modem or make a virtual modem w/ loopback device?
(OP)
I am using a product called wonderware scadalarm 5.0 that requires a modem. I just want to use the email capabilities but the software turns off if there is no modem. Tech support has no way around this limitation and the IT department forbids a modem on a networked computer.
How could I make something like a loopback connector device that would look like a generic modem on the windows 2k serial port?
Maybe there is a software solution to creating a virtual modem? Know of any utility that might "fake out" windows into seeing a modem?
TIA
