3. Select an available PCI expansion slot. Remove the expansion slot
cover and save the retaining screw.
4. Before handling the MultiModemZPX, discharge static in your body
by touching a metal piece of the computer chassis. Carefully
remove the MultiModemZPX from its antistatic bag, handling it only
by the mounting bracket and edges. Do not touch the gold-plated
connectors along the bottom edge.
5. Place the MultiModemZPX directly above the expansion slot and
gently, but firmly, push it into the connector until the card’s retaining
bracket is flush against the computer chassis.
6. Fasten the retaining bracket to the computer chassis with the screw
saved in step 3.
7. Replace the cover of the computer.
Step 2: Make the External Connections
Now, connect the MultiModemZPX to the telephone line and,
optionally, to your telephone. For voice mail or speakerphone, you can
also connect it to a microphone and an external speaker, headphone,
or sound card. The microphone can be used for recording answering
machine messages or for speakerphone use. The speaker or
headphone can be used for playing back messages or as a

jack. Do not plug the phone into the LINE jack or the line cable into
the PHONE jack.

Step 3: Install the Modem Driver
If you use Windows 98 or newer, you must install the modem driver. The
modem driver tells Windows how to control the modem. If you use a Linux
operating system or the SCO OpenServer operating system, please see
the
User Guide for installation instructions.
Installing the Modem Driver in Windows 98/Me/2000/XP
1. Make sure your modem is connected properly, and then turn on your
computer. Windows should detect your new modem and open the In-
stall New Modem wizard.
Note: If Windows cannot find a modem, it may be plugged into the
wrong connector on your computer. See “Solving Problems” in the
User Guide.
2. Insert the system CD into your CD-ROM drive, and then click OK.
3. Windows installs the modem driver.
4. Click Finish to exit.
Installing the Modem Driver in Windows NT 4.0
Before you begin a Windows NT installation, make sure Windows NT
Service Pack 3 or newer is installed on the computer. Also, to add and
remove devices you must be logged on with Administrator privileges.
1. After installing the MultiModemZPX modem into your computer,
turn the computer on and allow Windows NT to start.
2. Insert the MultiModemZPX system CD into your computer’s CD-
ROM drive.
3. When the MT5634ZPX-PCI Autorun menu appears, choose Windows
NT Setup.

4. The Multi-Tech Systems NT4 PCI Modem Setup dialog box shows
the COM port assigned to the modem. You can change the COM port
assignment by clicking the down arrow and selecting an available
COM port.
5. Now click Install. The MultiModemZPX driver is installed on the se-
lected COM port.
6. When a message asking you to restart the computer appears,
remove the CD from the CD-ROM drive, and then click OK to
restart the computer.

Step 4: Configure the Modem for Your Country
Different countries have different requirements for how modems must
function. Therefore, before you use your modem, you must configure it
to match the defaults of the country in which you are using it. You can
use one of two configuration methods:
•Using the Global Wizard to Configure Your Modem
•Using AT Commands to Configure Your Modem
Using the Global Wizard to Configure Your Modem
The Global Wizard configuration utility is recommended for computers
running Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/NT 4.0.
1. Insert the MultiModemZPX system CD into the CD-ROM drive. The
Autorun dialog box appears.
2. Click Initial Setup and Country Selection.
3. Choose either:
•Run Global Wizard from CD. This will not load the wizard onto
your hard drive, or
•Install Global Wizard on the HD. This will install the wizard onto
your hard drive for future use.
4. The Global Wizard dialog box appears. Click Next.
5. The Wizard searches for your modem and identifies it. Click Next.
6. Select the country in which the modem will be used. Click Next.
7. Review your choice of country. If it is correct, click Next to configure
the modem.
8. When Global Wizard announces that the parameters have been
set, click Finish to exit.

Using AT Commands to Configure Your Modem
Non-Windows users can configure the modem using AT commands. You
must enter these commands in your communication program’s terminal
window.
1. Run your favorite communication program or use PhoneTools
(located on the CD packaged with your modem) and open the
program’s terminal window.
2. To configure the modem for a specific country:
Type AT%T19,0,
nn (where nn is the country code in hexadecimal
format
Press ENTER.
The message OK displays.
3. To verify the change:
Type ATI9.
Press ENTER.
The country code is displayed in decimal format, as in this example:
Country AT command Result code
(hexadecimal) (decimal)
Euro/NAM AT%T19,0,34 (default) 52
The complete list of country codes can be found on the Multi-Tech
Web site at http://www.multitech.com/GlobalModem/config.
Step 5: Install the Software (PhoneTools)
You may use either the communication software included with your
modem or a third-party program. Communication programs designed
for Windows 98+ normally do not need to be manually configured,
since they use the Plug and Play configuration of the Windows modem
driver. Communication programs designed for other operating systems,
however, may need to be manually configured. If you need advice on
configuring software, please see the
User Guide .
