8.7. Modem Setup

Press “Modem Setup” to fetch the menu on the right. Here, you can adapt the

built-in modem to suit your telephone equipment if you do not obtain a con-

nection with the settings made at the factory.

Before you begin to change the standard settings, you should print them out.

In this respect, please read point 5.5. “Info Print”.

The individual points and their effects are described in detail in the following.

8.7.1. External Line

When using a franking system connected with telephone equipment, an ex-

change code often has to be preselected, e.g. “0” or “9”, to obtain a free

telephone line.

To enter the required exchange code, press “External Line”. At the same time,

this will show your current setting.

Enter the required exchange code and acknowledge your entry by pressing OK.

To delete any wrongly entered or unnecessary exchange code, press CE and

quit the display by pressing ENTER.

8.7.2. Pause

Some not-so-new telephone systems need a little time to send a call-connected

signal to the franking system. Using the function “Pause”, you can adjust the

desired time lag between “Picking up modem” and dialling the exchange

code. This adjustment is carried out as described in the procedure under point

9.6.1. “External Line”.

8.7.3. Dial Pause

Adjusting the dial pause supports the reliable dialling of telephone numbers,

especially in the case of not-so-new telephone systems. Using the function

“Dial Pause“, you can adjust the desired time lag between sending the ex-

change code and dialling the FramaOnline2 telephone number. This adjust-

ment is carried out as described in the procedure under point 9.6.1. “External

Line”.

8.7.4. Dial Mode

Your Frama Matrix franking system supports two different methods of dialling

telephone numbers. In case of doubt, please read the documation on your

telecommunication system. Press “Dial Mode” to shift between the two possi-

bilities.

Dial Mode TONE (standard): The modem uses tone dialling for calling telephone numbers.

Dial Mode PULSE: The modem uses pulse dialling for calling telephone numbers. This setting is intended

for not-so-new telephone systems.
