CC1600-Series Owner's Manual Introduction Multi-Tech rackmount modems are generally used in a central site computer environment (i.e., connected to a mini or mainframe computer) to automatically answer incoming calls from remote users. Command mode should be disabled unless you wish to give the modem commands. Leaving command mode enabled offers the possibility of a user calling into the modem and reconfiguring it, or causing it to dial out.
Chapter 2 - Installation Safety Recommendations The following safety recommendations should be observed when installing Multi-Tech CC1600-series modem racks. • Ensure proper installation of the CC1600-series modem racks in a closed or multi-unit enclosure by following the recommended installation as defined by the enclosure manufacturer.
