RS232 Connection
Plug one end of the serial cable into the RS232 connector on
the modem, and the other end into a serial port connector on
your computer, such as COM1 or COM2.
Dial-Up Connection
Plug one end of the modular telephone cable into the modem’s
LINE jack, and the other end into a standard telephone wall jack.
Note: The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE
jack. Do not plug the telephone into the LINE jack or the line
cable into the PHONE jack.
Note: Regulatory agencies may impose certain restrictions on
equipment connected to public telephone systems. For more
information, see Appendix A in the User Guide .
Two-Wire Leased Line Connection
Plug one end of a two-wire telephone cable into the modem’s
LINE jack, and connect the other end to a two-wire leased line
wall jack or terminals.

Telephone Connection
If you want to connect a telephone to the same line as the
modem, plug it into the modem’s PHONE jack.
Note: The PHONE jack is not interchangeable with the LINE
jack. Do not plug the telephone into the LINE jack or the line
cable into the PHONE jack.
Power Connection
The power switch is located on the right side of the modem.
Make sure it is set to OFF. Plug the the universal power supply
into the PWR jack on the modem. Then plug one end of the
country-specific power supply cord into the universal power
supply and the other end into a power outlet or power strip.
Note: Use only the power supply supplied with the modem.
Use of any other power supply voids the warranty and can
damage the modem.
Power-On Test
Test the modem by turning it on. When you turn it on, the mo-
dem performs a diagnostic self-test, after which the 56 indica-
tor should light. If this does not happen, check that the power
switch is on, the power supply is solidly connected, and the AC
outlet is live. If these measures do not work, see Chapter 8 of
the
User Guide , “Solving Problems.”

Step 4: Install the Modem Driver
If you use Windows 95 or above, you must install the modem
driver. The MTMoh Modem on Hold program is installed at the
same time (see Chapter 7 in the
User Guide ). If you use another
operating system, please see the
User Guide .
1. Make sure your modem is connected properly, and then
turn on your computer. Windows should detect your new
modem and open the Install New Modem wizard.
Note: If Windows cannot find a modem, your modem may
be turned off, it may be plugged into the wrong connector
on your computer, or the serial cable may be faulty. See
“None of the LEDs Light When the Modem Is Turned On”
and “The Modem Does Not Respond to Commands”in
Chapter 8 of the User Guide , “Solving Problems.”
2. In the Install New Modem wizard, select Don’t detect my
modem; I will select it from a list, and then click Next. A
dialog box with a list of manufacturers and a list of modem
models appears.
3. Insert the MultiModemZBA compact disc into your CD-ROM
drive, and then click Have Disk. (If the disc menu appears,
you may either close it or ignore it for now.)
4. In the Install from Disk dialog box, select the drive the
disc is in, and then click OK.
