About Your Modem

Communication Setup Options

If you run into configuration difficulties with your communication software, it may be helpful to read the following section.

In setting up some older software programs, you may be asked to enter certain information. Most programs have default settings that are correct for use with this modem, and there is no need to change them. However, you should be aware of the following items:

If you are asked to select the “modem type” from a menu, and you don’t see this modem listed by name, select the most descriptive name such as V.92 modem, 56K modem, or generic Class 1 Modem.

In the dialing directory, set all entries to the highest possible baud rate, if your software and serial port support these speeds (do not go over 115,200 bps). All communications between the computer and the faxmodem take place at this higher speed, independent of the modem-to-modem speed.

If your fax software gives you the option of selecting Class 1 or Class 2 fax drivers, select Class 1.

Initialization strings and AT commands

An initialization string is a group of AT command settings that is sent to the modem as soon as you start up the software. The software determines which commands should be included in the initialization string, based on the device you select during installation. The commands remain in effect throughout the communications session, unless the software sends other commands to override them.

The software uses other AT command strings for all commands sent to the modem. This is transparent to you—the software does this in the background without you being aware of it.

It is sometimes necessary, however, to add other AT commands to initialization strings. You can find a table of AT commands on the

World Wide Web at www.modems.com. Click Technical

Reference Infobase and then AT Command Sets under Communications and Software Issues.

If your software suggests an initialization string for this modem, you should use it. If your software does not list this modem and no initialization string is suggested, use the following: AT &F.

Your telephone service may include Call Waiting that you can temporarily suspend by using your phone to dial a special code. (For example, in the U.S., you can disable call waiting by adding *70 to your dialing prefix; please check with your local phone company for the correct code for your area.) You can include that code, followed by a comma, in the dial string or dial prefix in your software.

If your software does not handle AT commands automatically, it should provide a place to enter AT commands in its setup menus. However, in some cases you may need to enter AT commands directly to the modem. You must do so from a data program’s terminal mode.

Using Terminal Mode to Enter AT Commands

Start your data communications program. Change to terminal mode (also called command, local, direct, or

dumb mode). Check your software documentation for additional instructions.

Type AT plus the command you need and press Enter. You will see an OK response.

When you finish, you can return to the data communications program’s standard user interface. See the software program’s documentation if you need help.

To return to the factory default settings for the modem, in terminal mode, type AT &F and press Enter.

Refer to the Troubleshooting section for more tips about AT commands.

Using Video

Your faxmodem supports video applications through the V.80 standard protocol so that it can be used for high-quality modem-tomodem videoconferencing. The modem is compatible with H.324 point-to-point and H.323 Internet video conferencing standards. To send videos, you need a camera and video software.

Troubleshooting

If your modem stops working, please read this section carefully before calling Customer Support. In addition, your modem CD includes a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).

Plug and Play Setup Problems with Windows

Under some circumstances, the Plug and Play setup under Windows may not resolve all installation problems. The Windows Help system has an excellent tool for thoroughly diagnosing and solving many problems.

1 On your desktop, double-click the Computer or My Computer

icon.

2 Choose the Help Topics command in the Help menu. Windows

displays the Windows Help dialog box.

3 Select the Contents tab. Note: Windows Vista, XP, 2000 and

Me include a Help Search option, which you can use instead. Search for “hardware conflict” or "USB," for example.

4 Click Troubleshooters. (For Windows 98, you will also have to

click Windows 98 Troubleshooters.) Then click the hardware conflict help entry.

5 Follow the instructions for determining and resolving a hardware

conflict.

This should solve your problem. Remember to write down your COM port setting.

Other Troubleshooting Tips

Problem: Your modem seems to install under Windows,

Solution:

but Windows cannot find it later.

If your computer has a built-in modem on the motherboard, Windows may reinstall it the next time you start up. Consult your computer’s

documentation or call your computer’s manufacturer to get instructions on how to disable the built-in modem.

Problem: The software cannot find the modem and the

modem does not respond to AT commands. (The following comment applies to many other problems as well.)

The most common problem with modems is that the

Solution

communications software is not configured for the same COM port as the modem.

Check which COM port the modem is using. Make sure that the software’s COM port setting matches the modem’s COM port setting. From the Windows Toolbar, go to Start | Settings | Control Panel | Modems | Diagnostics. Click the COM port for your modem, then click More info. If Windows displays the modem’s ATI responses, the modem is working.

Another problem is that COM port resources may be in use by another device. Make sure that the COM port resources used by the modem are not being used by any other device, such as a soundcard.

Problem

Solution

: You type an AT command line in a terminal

application and press Enter, but your modem fails to execute the command line. Or there was no response after executing a command.

Be sure you type AT at the beginning of the

command line. Make sure the communications software is

configured for the same COM port as your modem. Be sure your modem is not in data mode when you

type the command. Use the escape character sequence to switch to terminal mode (The default escape sequence is to wait at least one second, type +++, and wait another second or more.)

If you typed a command but did not receive an OK response from your modem, the E0 and Q1 commands may be in effect, disabling echo and responses. Verify this with the &V command. To enable echo and responses, type ATE1Q0 and press Enter.

Problem

Solution:

Problem

: The modem speaker volume is too low or too

high.

Your modem has a small speaker on board that provides audible feedback of dial tones and remote connection signals (“handshaking”). This is not the same as the speaker that you may have connected to your sound card.

If the software allows you to control the volume, make sure the speaker is enabled and set to a comfortable volume.

If the software does not have speaker settings, add one of the AT commands listed below to the initialization string:

L1 for low volume L2 for medium volume L3 for highest volume M0 to turn the speaker off entirely

For example, if you want the volume low and the software uses the initialization string AT &F, change it to AT &F L1.

: The modem does not automatically dial a call

when you send a Dial command.

Solution

Make sure the modem speaker is turned on in your

software so that you can hear dialing sounds. Also, make sure that the phone line is plugged in.

Make sure that you are dialing a valid phone number, including any required dial prefixes.

If you are using tone dialing on a line that requires

pulse dialing, the line may not be able to accept tone-dialed calls. Select Pulse dialing in your software, or make sure the software dialing prefix is ATDP (for pulse dialing).

Make sure your communications software and modem are configured for the same COM port.

Make sure your modem has hung up from the previous call. Select Hang Up in your software; or type ATH in terminal mode.

Problem

: The modem can connect to some modems, but

not to others.

A remote modem does not respond because of the

Solution

extended negotiation process by which modems determine the best common connection between them. If this is the case, you may have to disable part or all of the negotiation process. In the following table, “protocol” means error correction and data compression.

To force different communication speeds Type these AT

commands and press Enter

Negotiate speed and protocol (default setting) To force protocol Dualmode (V.90 or V.92)—56000 bps V92 only (disable V.90)—56000 bps V.90 only (disable V.92)—56000 bps Disable both 56K and autorate on V.34—33600 bps V.34—33600 bps V.32bis—14400 bps V.32—9600 bps 2400 bps 1200 bps

AT+MS=V22B,0

AT+MS=V22,0

Notes: Some software allows these commands to be added to the list of dial prefixes or the initialization string.

When the protocol is forced, the modem will not attempt to connect at other protocols if it cannot connect at the forced protocol. It will try to connect at the fastest speed available within the forced protocol.

There are other configurations that can be forced as well. If you need to select a particular configuration, use the AT command strings shown below. You can always return to the modem’s default configuration by typing AT &F and pressting the Enter key.

Remember that if you do this, the modem will not have received the commands in your software’s initialization string as it normally would. Using the ATZ command overcomes this problem if you have saved all of your setup parameters in nonvolatile memory. (To save setup parameters in nonvolatile memory in AT terminal mode: Type AT, followed by the parameter settings you desire, followed by &W, and press Enter. For example, if you type AT &C1 &D2 &W and press

Enter, the &C1 and &D2 parameter settings are stored.)

Problem: Your V.92 modem does not connect reliably

at V.92.

Solution:

First be sure that you have the latest modem firmware downloaded from our Web site. Also make sure that your ISP offers V.92 at the

number you are calling. If you still have a V.92 problem, you may want

to modify your Internet Connection string in Windows: On your desktop, double-click the My

Computer icon, and then double-click Dial-up Networking. Right-click the existing Internet

Connection that you wish to modify and select

Properties. Click General | Configure | Connection | Advanced.

You can add initialization (init) strings on the line labeled Extra Settings. Enter one of the init strings listed below. Try these commands one at a time until you find the one that gives you the highest possible connection rate for your telephone line conditions.

characters

Problem: Modem-on-Hold is not working.

Solution:

You may have disabled Call Waiting in your dial up networking settings. For example, in the US, if you included *70, in your phone number to dial, you have disabled Call Waiting.

Your ISP may not support V.92. Check with your ISP.

Confirm that you have established a V.92 connection. Modem-on-Hold will not work with a V.90 connection.

Your phone line may not have Call Waiting enabled. In order to use Modem-on-Hold, your phone must support Call Waiting. Please check with your local telephone company.

Your firmware might be out of date. Please visit our Web site to upgrade your modem’s firmware.

Problem: You are using V.92 Modem-on-Hold but it

disconnects you as soon as you are notified of an incoming call.

Solution:

Your ISP may have set your modem “on hold” time to zero. This means that you are disconnected immediately after accepting an incoming call.

Your Modem-on-Hold software might be set to automatically disconnect. Please consult the online help included with your Modem-on-Hold software.

Problem: Your modem disconnects while communicating

with a remote system.

Solution

The remote system has hung up, and you need to reconnect. The other most common sources of interruptions are Call Waiting or someone picking up an extension phone.

If you have Call Waiting, you can usually temporarily disable it by including a prefix such as *70,

(including the comma) in the U.S., or by selecting it as a prefix in the software’s dialing directory.

Depending on your service, you may not be able to disable Call Waiting for incoming calls. If your incoming data calls are frequently disrupted by Call Waiting, you should consider dropping the service or installing a separate phone line without Call Waiting.

Note: Disabling Call Waiting prevents your V.92 Modem-on-Hold feature from working.

Problem: Your modem does not make a connection.

Solution:

If your modem places calls but never connects, make sure you are dialing the right number and that the remote modem is turned on.

Problem: Modem performance seems sluggish.

Solution:

If you are connected to the Internet, there may be a lot of traffic at the Web sites you are visiting. Other possible causes are lack of sufficient memory in your computer (insufficient RAM) or a slow processor (you need a Pentium® 266 or faster, or equivalent, when using Windows 98SE, Me, or

2000).

Problem: Data appears garbled on the screen.

Solution:

Your communications software character set-up (start bit, data bits, stop bits, and parity bit) does not match that of the remote system. Check your settings against those used by the remote system and make sure they match. Pay particular attention to the parity setting, as this is the most common difference among systems. You should normally use 8 data bits, NO parity, and 1 stop bit (8, NONE, 1 or 8N1). Another common setting is 7 data bits, EVEN parity, and 1 stop bit (7, EVEN, 1 or 7E1).

Problem: You encounter communications problems with

your modem.

Solution:

Check that your communications software has been set up properly. Recheck the initialization string and dial string specified in your software manual.

Memory-resident programs can cause a variety of problems. Try starting up your computer without them. Programs that can cause problems include antivirus programs and screen savers.

An excessive REN may cause the equipment to not ring in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of the RENs of all equipment on a line should not exceed five (5.0).

In the unlikely event that this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company can temporarily disconnect your service. The telephone company will try to warn you in advance of any such disconnection, but if advance notice isn't practical, it may disconnect the service first and notify you as soon as possible afterwards. In the event such a disconnection is deemed necessary, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

From time to time, the telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, or operations which could affect the operation of this equipment. If this occurs, the telephone company is required to provide you with advance notice so you can make the modifications necessary to obtain uninterrupted service.
