Required Equipment
In addition to the contents of the MT1932ZDX package, you need the
following equipment.
u
Computer
The MT1932ZDX can be connected to any computer with an RS-232C/
V.24 serial port, such as the IBM PC, XT, AT, and PS/2 computers, and
most PC compatibles. It can also be connected to the RS-422 serial ports
on Apple Macintosh computers. To use your MT1932ZDX at its highest
speeds, a PC must have either a serial port with a 16550AFN UART or a
Multi-Tech ISI (Intelligent Serial Interface) card, such as the ISI551 (single
port), ISI552 (dual port), or the ISI608 (eight ports). A 16550AFN UART can
safely handle data at rates up to 115,200 bps. Almost all Macintoshes can
handle data rates up to 57,000 bps, while the newer ones can handle data
rates up to 115,000 bps.
u
Serial Cable
To connect the MT1932ZDX to your computer, you must provide a serial
cable, obtainable at computer stores and many office supply stores. The
cable should have a male DB-25 connector at the modem end. For IBM and
compatible computers, the other end may have a female DB-25 connector
or a female DB-9 connector, depending on your computer. Most Macintosh
computers require a round, 8-pin, mini-DIN connector. The Macintosh
serial cable should be wired for hardware flow control. To reduce electrical
interference, the FCC requires that the cable be shielded.
u
Telephone Line
You must have a telephone line with a jack (connector) that accepts the
cable that comes with the MT1932ZDX. If you do not have a telephone jack
near your computer, you should install one before proceeding.
