CONNECTING TO A MODEM
The FT 100S can be controlled remotely by a telephone line modem
connected to the control port.
While not required, it is recommended that a modem with an error
control protocol like MNP be used for remote control to prevent control
command errors from accidentally reconfiguring the unit.
1. Connect a null modem device or crossover cable between
the FT 100S control port and modem. Refer to Table 2-2
for control port pin connections.
2. Using the front panel, select terminal operation, the desired
control port baud rate, and local echo if desired.
Word length is fixed at 8 data bits with 1 stop bit and no parity.
3. Enter a / on the keyboard to display the sign-on screen.
The following illustration shows connection application to a modem.
