Modem
When using this function, it is necessary to run a software application able to maintain the
condition to receive telephone calls and to return the computer to the original condition after
a call. For further details, refer to the operating instructions provided with software
applications.
Enabling the Ring Resume Function
A
Select [Device Manager] in [start] - [Control Panel] - [Performance and
Maintenance] - [System] - [Hardware], and then select the internal modem
from [Modems].
B
Select [Power Management], add the check mark for [Allow this device to bring
the computer out of standby], then select [OK].
CAUTION
When using this function, it is recommended that the AC adaptor be connected to the
computer.
Concerning the setting for [System standby]
• Consider the approximate communication time and then set [System standby]. If the
time set for [System standby] elapses during communications, the communication
may be cut off.
• If [Never] is set, the computer will not enter the standby mode during
communications, but once the computer resumes, the power of the computer will
remain on while the user is absent.
While the computer is communicating via the modem, the computer may freeze when
entering the standby mode. If this happens, press the power switch for four seconds or
more to forcibly turn off the computer.
When the Ring Resume function is being used, some time elapses before a
connection is established (equal to the time for the computer to resume). To allow the
computer to resume, set the "Call" to a larger value than a typical telephone call. If it is
not possible for the sending side to set a long "Call", set the "Number of rings until
answer" (with the software application that is able to maintain the condition to receive
telephone calls) to a small value.
