2.4 Hardware Configuration (Plug and Play)
Your modem is configured using the Plug and Play
(PnP) capabilities of your computer. Plug and Play is a
set of specifications that define the ability for the computer hardware and operating system to automatically
configure all compliant devices that are installed, relieving the user of the need to determine which addresses
and interrupts to use for each device. Consult your PC's
owner's manual to determine if it is PnP Revision 1.0a
compliant. You most likely have a Plug and Play Revision
1.0a compliant system if it was purchased after June
1994 or if the BIOS is dated after June 1994.
Proceed to one of the following sections, depending
on your system's configuration:
• Section 2.4.1 if you are running Windows
95 (with or without a Plug and Play PC)
• Section 2.4.2 if you are running Windows
3.1x or DOS on a PnP-compliant PC.
• Section 2.4.3 if you are running Windows
3.1x on a non-PnP PC.
2.4.1 Configuring in Windows 95
When Windows 95 starts for the first time after
card installation, it detects the modem and displays the
New Hardware Found dialog box.
Under New Hardware Found, when asked to
“Select which driver you want to install for your new
hardware,” click on “Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer.” Click “OK.”
3
The Install From Disk dialog box now instructs
you to “Insert the manufacturer's installation disk into the
drive selected, and then click OK.” Insert the modem's
Utility diskette into the disk drive and type A:\ (or B:\ if
inserted in drive B) in the “Copy manufacturer's files
from:” box. Click “OK.”
Windows 95 may request its own installation disks
for some files. Insert the Windows 95 disks as required.
When all necessary files are copied, the modem is
configured. Windows 95 will assign the modem a COM
port and IRQ line.
Windows 95 communication packages will recognize the modem by name. Windows 3.1x communication
packages running under Windows 95 need to access
the modem via the COM port designation given to the
modem. This can be found by running Control Panel
(Start|Settings|Control Panel), double-clicking Mo-
dems, selecting the modem and clicking on “Properties”
under the General tab. Note which COM port is being
used by the modem. Proceed to Section 2.5, Software
Installation/Configuration.
2.4.2 Configuring in a Plug and Play System without
Windows 95
When this modem is installed in a Plug and Play
system without Windows 95, the computer's BIOS will
assign a COM port and IRQ line to the modem.
Proceed to Section 2.5, Software Installation/Configuration.
2.4.3 Configuring in a Non-Plug and Play System
Computers without native Plug and Play capabilities require the use of the included modem driver. If you
have not already installed this driver, refer to the file
README.1ST on the Windows 95 driver disk for installation and configuration instructions. Once the driver is
installed the modem is enabled and configured during
system boot-up. The COM port and IRQ settings that are
assigned to the modem will be displayed on the screen as
the driver is loaded.
Configure Windows 3.1x to properly recognize
these modem settings by opening PROGRAM
4
MANAGER|MAIN|CONTROL PANEL, click on PORTS
and follow Windows 3.1x user's manual instructions on
configuring the installed modem COM port.
Proceed to Section 2.5, Software Installation/Configuration.
2.5 Software Installation and Configuration
You are now ready to install and configure the
communication software. Refer to your software manual
for installation procedures.
We suggest the following communication parameters when you first use your data communication software. Consult the software manual for information on
using these and other parameters/features.
38,400 bps; 8 data bits; no parity; 1 stop bit;
RTS/CTS flow control set to “on;” initialization
string: AT&F
We suggest that a “Generic Class 2” or “Generic
Class 1” modem type should be selected in your fax
software, and a “Generic Rockwell” modem type should
be selected in your Voice software.
Note that your software must be configured to
communicate with the modem on the same COM port
and IRQ line used by the modem.
2.6 Using the Fax, Voice, and Speakerphone
Capabilities of the Modem
Your modem has built-in advanced FAX, Voice,
and Full Duplex Speakerphone functions. Please consult
your FAX/Voice/Speakerphone software manual about
procedures on using these features.
Voice functions include recording and playback of
voice prompts (files). You may record or playback voice
with your modem by attaching a telephone to the RJ-11
jack marked “PHONE” or by attaching a microphone to
the MIC jack and a speaker to the SPK jack located on
the back of the modem bracket. Follow instructions in the
FAX/Voice/Speakerphone software on recording and
playback of voice prompts.
