Loading PhoneTools Software
Communication programs designed for Windows normally do not need
to be manually configured since they use the Plug and Play
configuration. NT4.0 uses an Add Modem wizard which is a step-by-
step modem setup program. See the PhoneTools documentation on the
MT2834BA/BL CD for installation and configuration directions.
Is Your Modem Ready for Use?
As soon as you have connected power to the modem, if you are an
experienced modem user, you may simply want to check your modem’s
settings for data compression, error correction, and so on. You may find
that you can get moving quite quickly if you just issue an
ATL5, ATL6
and an
ATL7
command. These commands list how your modem is
currently configured. If you come across a setting you’re unsure of, refer
to Chapters 5 and 6 of the User Guide for AT command and S-Register
explanations and defaults.
If you’re a novice, refer to Chapter 3 of the User Guide to learn about the
basics of data communications.
