 Installation

This section includes procedures that will allow you to connect and
disconnect the Data/Fax Modem to, and from, your personal
computer and a PSTN telephone line. Also included are instructions
for installing the Data/Fax Modem software for users of both OS/2
and DOS operating systems and in the Windows environment.

During the software installation you will be offered the option of
installing a device driver, the README file, the online
documentation, and the diagnostics program. Depending on your
computer, your applications software, and your computer skills it may
not be necessary to install any or all of those files. If you want to
conserve space on your computer’s hard disk, you can choose not to
install them or to install only some of them. The files will always be
available to you for later installation from the Data/Fax Modem
diskette.

Backing Up the Data/Fax Modem Diskette

It is a good idea to make a backup copy of the Data/Fax Modem
diskette to use should something happen to the original. To make a
backup copy, you will need a blank, 3.5-inch, 2.0-MB capacity
diskette.

Follow your computer’s operating system instructions for making a
copy of the diskette. Place the original Data/Fax Modem diskette in
a safe place, and use the backup copy for installation and testing.
