Installing and Configuring Software
INSTALLING COMMUNICATIONS SOFTWARE
If your modem came with a communications software package, it is strongly rec-
ommended that you use this software for your modem. Its default installation
parameters have been specially configured to work with this modem. The included
software features multi-language support in both data and fax modes. To install
this software on your computer, follow these easy steps.
Step 1: Insert the CD-ROM into your computers CD-ROM drive.
Step 2: If you are using Windows 95/98, a menu will automatically start (Note: if
the menu does not appear, use My Computer and double-click the CD-
ROM icon). If you are using Windows 3.1X, go to File-Run and type in
the CD-ROM drive letter followed by setup16. This will load the 16 bit
version of the software for use by Windows 3.1X.
Step 3: Choose the language you wish to use from the menu and install the soft-
ware.
If you want to use another software package, please be sure that it supports this
modem. Most software manufacturers have a listing of supported modems on their
websites or BBSs. Check these sites to see if this model is supported. If you are
unsure, or your brand of software supports only a few modems, try selecting Hayes
Compatible or Standard Modem. This may work in certain cases. Some soft-
ware programs allow manual input of parameters. For the users of these programs,
here is a listing of the data/fax command standards supported.
Data: TIA/EIA-602
Fax: TIA/EIA-578 for Class 1 Fax
Init String: AT&F&C1&D2W2
Note: Some programs must be configured to communicate with the mo-
dem on the same COM port and or IRQ setting used by the modem.
