Notices to Australian users:
The modem card must only be used in a data terminal equipment (DTE) e.g. computer, that has
a screw down cover (lid). As unsafe voltages (TNV) exist on the modem card, disconnect the
modem card from the telephone line while the cover (lid) of the DTE (computer) is removed.
Installation of the modem card in a DTE (computer) which does not require a tool to open the
cover (lid) will render the permit void.
Disconnect the telephone line before opening the cover (lid) of the DTE (computer). Do not
connect the customer equipment to the telephone line while the cover (lid) of the DTE
(computer) is open.
Modems connected to the Australian telecommunications network must be marked in
accordance with the Labeling Notice. This modem has been specifically configured to ensure
compliance with the ACA Standards. Do not adjust your modem or software outside the values
indicated as below. To do so would result in your modem being operated in a non-compliant
manner.
Modem Commands:
Command
ATA - Do not use
ATB B0 Do not set to B1
AT&G &G0 &G2
AT&P &P0 &P1
ATSn see table below
S register Default Permissible Range
s6 2 2 to 6
Call Attempts/Retries:
Applications software shall be configured so that no more than 3 attempts are made to
establish a connection to a given number (Note: if the modem can detect service tones, up to
10 attempts can be made). If the call sequence is unsuccessful, there shall be a delay of at
least 30 minutes before attempting to call the number again.
Failure to set the modem and any application software used with the modem, to the values
shown as above will result in the modem being operated in a non-compliant manner.
Consequently, this would be in violation of the Labeling Notice for this equipment, and the
Telecommunications ACT 1997 prescribes penalties for the connection of non-compliant
equipment.
