4-4 Software Installation and Configuration
Follow the communication software manual for installation procedures. You
may be asked by the software to configure certain communication parameters.
We suggest the following settings:
Baud rate: 115,200 bps Data bits: 8 Parity: None Stop bit: 1
Flow Control: RTS/CTS Initialization String: AT&F
4-5 Testing The 56K Modem
To check if the modem is working properly after installation, run a
communication program ( ie. Hyperterminal) and set the software for the
correct modem COM port. At the software's terminal mode prompt, type AT,
then press ENTER. The modem should respond with an OK. This indicates
the modem is working properly. If it does not, either the modem has not been
installed properly or the software has not been properly configured. Return to
the PnP Hardware Configuration and be sure the modem and the software
have been properly installed. If required, refer to the Troubleshooting section
for more information.
