Front Panel Operation
The liquid-crystal display (LCD) front panel provides easy real-time
access to modem configuration and status. You can use the LCD at any
time to modify modem options or to get information about modem
operation and status. All of the major modem options can be controlled
through the LCD interface without an external terminal or phone line
connection. Operation of the LCD can be secured using a password
protection feature. A remote modem can even be configured using the
local LCD, through the use of the front panel remote configuration feature.
