Internal Modem
The NEC Versa 2000C comes equipped with a built-in modem to enable you
to send and receive faxes, cruise the Internet, and download information. A
modem converts data so it can be transmitted over phone lines and then con-
verts it back again so you can read it on your computer.
NOTE
If you have the NEC Versa 2000D, you do not have an inter-
nal modem, but you can purchase one as an option. Or you can use
a PC card modem. See the online
NEC Versa 2000 Options Catalog
for both options.
Your NEC Versa 2000 comes with fax software and several online service
gateways — all the basics you need to communicate with the outside world.
Use the following procedure to connect a phone line to the NEC Versa 2000.
1.
Unplug the telephone cable from the telephone.
2.
