This chapter covers the installation and configuration of your 5556
Modem Card. Please refer to your software documentation for
additional information on installation and configuration of a modem.
The 5556 may be used with any Micro PC Control Card.
The 5556 contains static sensitive CMOS components. The greatest
danger occurs when the card is plugged into a card cage. The 5556
becomes charged by the user and the static discharges to the
backplane from the pin closest to the card connector. If that pin
happens to be an input pin, even TTL inputs may be damaged. To
avoid damaging your card and its components:
1. Ground yourself before handling the 5556 Modem Card.
2. Disconnect power before removing or inserting the 5556 card.
