Typical Application

To configure the Linc-Up
for the phone you are using,
simply set the level switch to
one of its four settings. The
setting you use depends on
the signal level used by the
telephone to which your
Mobile Linc-Up is connected.

The Linc-Up is versatile:
When sending data and faxes,
you can set the Linc-Up for
autodial if your telephone
supports autodialing. Or you
can dial data calls manually.

Level Switch

The Level Switch lets you set
the Linc-Up’s signal level to
that of the telephone to which
it is connected.

Make sure the Level
switch is set properly.
Otherwise, you will hear
buzzing or squelching
feedback through the modem
speaker when the modem is
off-hook, which will
adversely affect transmission
and reception.

Battery Life

The Mobile Linc-Up comes
with two 9-VDC batteries
installed. These batteries are
heavy-duty and will yield
over 15 hours of modem or
fax use. With alkaline
batteries installed, the Mobile
Linc-Up will provide
approximately 40 hours of
modem or fax use. The access
door for the battery
compartment is located on
the bottom of the unit.
