WELCOME TO 56K* INFORMATION ACCESS

The International Telecommunications Union (ITU)
decides the technical protocols that communications
devices must use to operate with each other.
Modems that comply with ITU standards can “talk”
to other standards-compliant modems and fax
machines worldwide.
The ITU has determined a worldwide standard for
56K modem technology. With a U.S. Robotics
modem, you can get 56K Internet access from any
service provider who offers the ITU V.90 standard
or 3Com’s proprietary 56K technology. 3Com is
working with providers everywhere to quickly
upgrade their service to the ITU V.90 standard.

Answering Machine Features
Before You Begin
Your new Professional Message Modem is set up as
an answering machine from the factory with the fax
capability disabled. In order to use the fax features,
a PC is necessary to adjust default settings. Also,
you will need to set a password, using a PC, for use
with the remote feature of the modem. Refer to the
software package to choose your 4-digit password.
It is also necessary to record a Personal Greeting
Message and Full Message to use with the
Professional Message Modem. The following

this.
