in for the modem to function properly.
Installing and Testing the Modem
Installing and Configuring the Software
Install the communications software according to the software user’s
modem of the same COM port and IRQ line used by the modem. You
may be prompted by the software to configure certain communication
parameters. We suggest the following settings:
Testing Your Modem
In order to check if the modem is installed properly, make sure that the
COM Port and IRQ settings of the modem match the software. Type AT
on your terminal screen and press ENTER. The modem should respond
by displaying an OK (or 0). If it does not, either the modem may not
have been installed properly or the software has not been properly
configured.
Using Your Modem
The communications software included with your modem provides a
user friendly interface to access the data and fax. The modem may also
perform basic communication functions (such as dialing) via the AT
commands. Please refer to “AT Commands” on page 4 for detailed
Item Suggested Setting
Baud rate 115200 bps
Data bits 8
Parity none
Stop bit 1
Flow control Xon./Xoff
initialization string AT&F

descriptions. Since the communication software is designed to shield
the user from the difficult and cumbersome AT commands, we strongly
suggest that all modem operations be performed via the software.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using your modem, please read this
chapter. If you cannot resolve your difficulties after reading this
chapter, contact your dealer or vendor for assistance.
Problem Solution
Modem does not
respond to
commands
1Make sure the communications software is
configured with the correct COM port and IRQ
setting (same COM port and IRQ setting as the
modem). Your communications software will not
be able to send or receive any data if it is not
configured to match the COM and IRQ settings for
the modem.
2Make sure that your modem is initialized correctly.
Your modem may have been improperly initialized
by the software because you have selected an
incorrect modem type. You may also be prompted
to enter an initialization string by the software.
Use AT&F as your initialization string.
Modem dials but
does not connect.
1Make sure the IRQ setting is identical on both the
modem and the software.
2Make sure the phone line is working properly. A
noisy line will prevent proper modem operation.
Modem makes a
connection but no
data appears on
your screen.
1Make sure all communication parameters (baud
rate, data, stop, and parity bits) are properly
configured and are identical on both sides. Be
certain software flow control (Xon-Xoff - default)
is enabled in both the modem and the
communication software.
2Press the ENTER key several times. The remote
system may be waiting to receive your data before
it begins.

AT Commands
Basic AT Commands
A summary of the commands implemented by the modem are shown
in the following table labeled “AT Command Set Summary”.
Commands may be executed when the modem is in COMMAND mode.
COMMAND mode is entered upon one of the following conditions:
•After power up
•At the termination of a connection
•After the execution of a command other than dial or answer
commands (ATO or AT&T)
•Upon the receipt of the ESCAPE SEQUENCE (three consecutive
characters matching the contents of S register 2) while in online
mode
•Upon the on-to-off transition of DTR if D1, &D2, or &D3 has been
set
Modem
experiences errors
while on-line with
a remote modem.
1Make sure Call Waiting is turned off.
2Make sure to use Xon/Xoff software flow control
when transferring binary files.
