Operating instructions

EQUIPMENT
If possible, ask people who send you FAX messages
to program your number into their FAX machine’s
memory. This will allow FAX calls to always be
processed automatically.
2.2 COMPUTER MODEMS
Your ATX-300 is compatible with all dial-up MODEM S .
Usually, MODEM
S are attached to the DEVICE 3
connector of your ATX-300. Your ATX-300 will
transfer incoming calls to your MODEM when the
calling MODEM dials * 3 (or another code, if
re-programmed) after the call has been answered
by your Versa-Link. The data protection feature
prevents interruptions from other telephone
equipment.
If your MODEM is only used for out-bound
communication, you do not need to be concerned
with the device selection code for the MODEM.
The device selection code for your MODEM is best
dialed by the calling MODEM. When calling your
MODEM attached to
DEVICE 3, with the ATX-300’s
factory programming, the dialing command for a
Hayes-compatible MODEM would be:
I
ATDT 1 203 555 5678 , , , 3
I
The commas will generate pauses in the dialing
MODEM. The number of pauses may need to be
changed to allow enough time for the call to be
switched through the telephone company,
particularly if the calling MODEM is dialing
long-
distance.
The device selection codes can be changed- up to
seven digits to add security to any system. Your
ATX-300 will restrict access to only those callers
who dial the right device selection code. See section
7,
PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES, to change this
code.
