TC BBS M5000
The purpose of the TC Bulletin Board is to distribute new software, programs and presets for
TC products and to share information between TC Electronic and the users of TC equipment.
In order to use the TC BBS you need the following:
1. An IBM
tm
, Atari
tm
or MAC
tm
computer.
2. A communication program such as Procomm, Crosstalk or one of several public
domain programs.
3. A modem, (a modem is an interface for your computer that enables you to connect
your computer to another computer through the telephone line).
In the communication program you have to set certain parameters: i.e. (for the bulletin
board in Denmark) 300-14400 Baud, 8 Data bits, No parity and 1 Stop bit. You get the
best result if you set your program to use the ANSI terminal emulator.
Depending on where you are in the world, you can call the following numbers:
Bulletin Board Number to call Baud rate Data bits Parity Stop bits

TC USA 805-374 9343 300-14400 8 N 1
Important!
Once you are connected to the bulletin board, you will be asked what the serial number of
your M5000 frame is - so you better have that ready before calling, in order not to waste
expensive on-line time while looking for the serial number on the M5000 - notice that you
need the serial number from the frame - not the number from the modules - it will begin with
28x xxx.
When you are on-line, you will be guided through the menus and messages on the screen will
explain what to do, when you want to download (receive) a program, read a message or leave
a message etc.
On the bulletin board you will find the latest software version for the M5000 together with
different utilities such as programs for dumping software to the M5000 from a computer
through MIDI, program-files, newest information from TC and much more.
Call the bulletin board NOW and see for yourself....
