Thanks for the links! But why don't they have these on the web site? is it
THAT big the waste of storage? :-)
I am not sure, but I suspect that the 14.4k modems were not upgradable. Only
the 28.8k did support flash, because of the lack of the market-standard and
the quick evolution of standards at the time.
There is an ati(something) command, that reports if there is Flash support.
I am mirroring the supra directories, I do not know if I will find them
again in a couple of years ;-)))
Once again: Thanks!!!

But, could you please check, if there is an S
register for the 2 digit
display? could you please send me the options? I am 99% confident that
it's not in the quick reference sheet.
I don't see one that directly sets the display. According to the manual,
S37 can set the line speed, but N0 has to also be given to enable it.
There is another command called +MS that sets other speed settings, but it
has tons of options.
Diamond has this manual linked from their website, but it appears to be
for a later modem:

This file appears to cover most all of the AT commands and S register
options for the SupraFAXModem 288:
It looks like most of the modems are still listed here:

It also looks like most of the flash ROM versions can be found here:
ftp://ftp.diamondmm.com/pub/communications/supra/
Btw, the book I have covers both the 14.4 and 28.8 modems, while the quick
reference sheet only covers 28.8 modems.
Do you know offhand if the 14.4 modems can be flash upgraded in the same
manner as the 28.8s? It certainly appears as though Supra was trying to
prevent their modems from becoming obsolete due to protocol and speed
improvements. These remind me of the US Robotics Courier modems.
