(b) Precautions for selecting a modem
• When using a cellular phone
A modem with the error correction function of MNP class-10 is recommended. However, note that
communication may not be established depending on the line condition.
• Modem setting
• Set the modem on the Q series C24 side as shown below:
*1 When using different modems, the slower communication rate will be in effect.
*2 Some modems may transmit one character as 10 bits.
Check the modem specifications when setting the Q series C24 transmission specifications.
*3 Some modems may switch the communication rate following the start of data communication.
Since the Q series C24 cannot switch the communication rate, set the modem side so that its communication rate does
not switch.
• When using a modem whose DR terminal (signal) is set by a switch, set the DR-terminal (modem output)
switch level to high. When using a modem requiring DR terminal setting with software, write the command
that turns on the DR (DSR) signal into the data for initialization. Set the "Modem initialization time DR
signal valid/invalid designation" to "Invalid" during modem function system settings with GX Configurator-
SC.
