descriptionof the modemcommand set beforemanu-
ally accessing the modem. You may want to read the
software manual first, however, as the software may
already provide a user friendly method of accessing
thefunctionsyouneed(i.e.dialingoransweringcalls).
2.9 Where To Go From Here
Youshouldfamiliarizeyourselfwiththefunctions
available from the included software by reading its
manual. You will be accessing most, if not all, of the
modem's functions from this software. You may also
useany other commerciallyavailable communication
software with the modem. Read Section 3 only if you
