EMP Requirements and Configurations
This section outlines the requirements and configurations necessary for
using the EMP.
Operating Systems:
„
Windows 95

16 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended

20 MB disk space.
„
Windows NT

Windows NT 4.0 or later

24 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended

20 MB disk space.
Client Configuration: The EMP will support all COM ports on the
client system, along with any Windows NT/95 compatible modem.
Server Configuration: The EMP requires the server's COM 2 port to be
connected to an external modem or directly connected to a serial cable.
Direct Connect Configuration : A null modem serial cable is needed.
Connect one end of the cable into the COM 2 port of server and the
other into a port on the client machine.
Modem Configuration : On the client, the EMP uses the Windows
Application Program Interface (API) to determine if a modem is
connected and available. The EMP does not configure the modem; it
should be preconfigured through Windows.
For modem support, the server must use a Hayes compatible 14400
bps modem. The modem must be on the NT Hardware Compatibility
List provided by Microsoft. The server modem must be set in auto-
answer mode for the EMP to be able to connect to it.
