7.2 Modem
Initialization
If a modem card is installed into a working SCS1620, it must be initialized for
proper operation with the system. The
sysadmin
does this using the
install_modem
install_modem
install_modem
install_modem
command. This command forces a hardware reset of the
modem module and then sends an initialization string which configures the
modem for the system. This string also saves these values into the modem's
non-volatile memory.
This is not required if the modem is installed before
setup
is run on the system.
This command does not appear in the
help
help
help
help
or command menu list since it is
only used when installing the modem card after the initial installation.
To Initialize the Modem (only needed when it is first installed):
1. Login as sysadmin
2. Type
install_modem
install_modem
install_modem
install_modem
at the
sysadmin>
prompt.
3. When the command has run completely, you are returned to the
sysadmin> prompt. The modem has reset and is ready to use.
