The FCC registration number of the modem will be found on your modem’s label.

◆ The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of the modem, which can vary. For the

REN of your modem, refer to your modem’s label.

The modem connects to the telephone line by means of a standard jack called the USOC RJ11C.

Type of service

Your modem is designed to be used on standard-device telephone lines. Connection to telephone company-provided coin service (central office implemented systems) is prohibited. Connection to party lines service is subject to state tariffs. If you have any questions about your telephone line, such as how many pieces of equipment you can connect to it, the telephone company will provide this information upon request.

Telephone company procedures

The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to do this, it may occasionally be necessary for them to make changes in their equipment, operations, or procedures. If these changes might affect your service or the operation of your equipment, the telephone company will give you notice in writing to allow you to make any changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.

If problems arise

If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they may temporarily discontinue service. When practical, they will notify you in advance of this disconnection. If advance notice is not feasible, you will be notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. In the event repairs are ever needed on your modem, they should be performed by TOSHIBA Corporation or an authorized representative of TOSHIBA Corporation.

Notes for Users in Australia and New Zealand

Modem warning notice for Australia

Modems connected to the Australian telecoms network must have a valid Austel permit. This modem has been designed to specifically configure to ensure compliance with Austel standards when the region selection is set to Australia. The use of other region setting while the modem is attached to the Australian PSTN would result in your modem being operated in a non-compliant manner. To verify that the region is correctly set, enter the command ATI which displays the currently active setting.

To set the region permanently to Australia, enter the following command sequence:

A T%TE=1 ATS133=1 AT&F AT&W A T%TE=0 ATZ

Failure to set the modem to the Australia region setting as shown above will result in the modem being operated in a non-compliant manner. Consequently, there would be no permit in force for this equipment and the Telecoms Act 1991 prescribes a penalty of $12,000 for the connection of non-permitted equipment.

Notes for use of this device in New Zealand

◆ The grant of a Telepermit for a device in no way indicates Telecom acceptance

of responsibility for the correct operation of that device under all operating conditions. In particular the higher speeds at which this modem is capable of operating depend on a specific network implementation which is only one of many ways of delivering high quality voice telephony to customers. Failure to operate should not be reported as a fault to Telecom.

◆ In addition to satisfactory line conditions a modem can only work properly if:

a/ it is compatible with the modem at the other end of the call and b/ the application using the modem is compatible with the application at the

other end of the call - e.g., accessing the Internet requires suitable software in addition to a modem.

◆ This equipment shall not be used in any manner which could constitute a

nuisance to other Telecom customers.

◆ Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s PTC Specifications

are dependent on the equipment (PC) associated with this modem. The associated equipment shall be set to operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom Specifications:

a/ There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same number within

any 30 minute period for any single manual call initiation, and

b/ The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 30 seconds

between the end of one attempt and the beginning of the next.

c/ Automatic calls to different numbers shall be not less than 5 seconds

apart.

◆ Immediately disconnect this equipment should it become physically damaged,

and arrange for its disposal or repair.

◆ The correct settings for use with this modem in New Zealand are as follows:

ATB0 (CCITT operation) AT&G2 (1800 Hz guard tone) AT&P1 (Decadic dialing make-break ratio =33%/67% ATS0=0 (not auto answer) ATS6=2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 (Blind dial delay, factory default value of 2 is recom-

mended) ATS7=less than 90 (Time to wait to carrier after dialing) ATS10=less than 150 (loss of carrier to hangup delay, factory default of 14

recommended) ATS11=95 (DTMF dialing on/off duration=95 ms) ATX2 (Dial tone detect, but not (U.S.A.) call progress detect)

◆ When used in the Auto Answer mode, the SO register must be set with a value

between 2 and 10. This ensures: (a) a person calling your modem will hear a short burst of ringing before the

modem answers. This confirms that the call has been successfully switched through the network.

(b) caller identification information (which occurs between the first and

second ring cadences) is not destroyed.

◆ The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones (ATDT...) as this is

faster and more reliable than pulse (decadic) dialing. If for some reason you must use decadic dialing, your communications program must be set up to record numbers using the following translation table as this modem does not implement the New Zealand “Reverse Dialing” standard.

Number to be dialed: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Number to program into computer: 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Note that where DTMF dialing is used, the numbers should be entered

normally.

◆ The transmit level from this device is set at a fixed level and because of this

there may be circumstances where the performance is less than optimal. Before reporting such occurrences as faults, please check the line with a standard Telepermitted telephone, and only report a fault if the phone performance is impaired.

◆ It is recommended that this equipment be disconnected from the Telecom line

during electrical storms.

◆ When relocating the equipment, always disconnect the Telecom line connec-

tion before the power connection, and reconnect the power first.

◆ This equipment may not be compatible with Telecom Distinctive Alert ca-

dences and services such as FaxAbility.

NOTE THAT FAULT CALLOUTS CAUSED BY ANY OF THE ABOVE CAUSES MAY INCUR A CHARGE FROM TELECOM

General conditions

As required by PTC 100, please ensure that this office is advised of any changes to the specifications of these products which might affect compliance with the relevant PTC Specifications.
