Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting
MultiMobileUSB User Guide Introduction Your modem was thoroughly tested at the factory before it was shipped. If you are unable to make a successful connection, or if you experience data loss or garbled characters during your connection, it is possible that the modem is defective. However, it is more likely that the source of your problem lies elsewhere. The following symptoms are typical of problems you might encounter: • None of the LEDs light when the modem is on.
Chapter 4 - Troubleshooting The Modem Dials But Cannot Connect There can be several reasons the ZBA fails to make a connection. Possibilities include • lack of a physical connection to the telephone line. • incompatibility between modems. • a busy signal. • a wrong number. • no modem at the other end. • a faulty modem, computer, or software at the other end. You can narrow the list of possibilities by using extended result codes. Extended result codes are enabled by default.
MultiMobileUSB User Guide The Modem Disconnects While Online • If you have Call Waiting on the same phone line as your modem, it can interrupt your connection when someone tries to call you. If you have Call Waiting, disable it before each call. In most telephone areas in North America, you can disable Call Waiting by preceding the telephone number with *70 (check with your local telephone company). You can automatically disable Call Waiting by including the disabling code in the modem’s dial prefix (e.g.
Appendices
MultiMobileUSB User Guide Appendix A: Regulatory Agency Compliance Class B Statement FCC Part 15 This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
Appendix A - Regulatory Compliance 4. The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the quabtity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the device not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. 5.

Appendix A - Regulatory Compliance New Zealand Telecom Warning Notice The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty.
MultiMobileUSB User Guide Appendix B - V.90 Support Introduction V.90 is the ITU designation for what had formerly been called V.pcm. The ITU recommendation V.90 was determined at a meeting in Geneva ending February 6, 1998. V.90 will replace K56flex and other proprietary solutions for PCM connections. Dual-mode client modem code will be important until all central-site digital modems are upgraded to V.90 and all interoperability problems have been resolved.
Appendix C - Loopback Tests Appendix C: Loopback Tests Introduction Each time you turn on your modem, it performs an automatic self-test to ensure proper operation. Your modem also has three diagnostic tests: local analog loopback, remote digital loopback, and local digital loopback. These ITU-T V.54 loopback tests isolate telephone circuit and transmission problems. In a loopback test, data from your computer loops through the circuits of your modem and/or a remote modem before it appears on your monitor.
MultiMobileUSB User Guide character is entered. 5. To exit the test, type the escape sequence +++AT and press ENTER. This puts the modem in online command mode. Then type either AT&T or ATH to return to command mode. 6. Your modem passes this test if the data received on your monitor are the same as the data entered from your keyboard. If different data appear on your monitor, your modem is probably causing the problem, though it could also be your computer.
Appendix C - Loopback Tests Local Digital Loopback Test (V.54 Loop 2) The local digital loopback test is identical to the remote digital loopback test with one exception. Instead of using your modem to signal a remote modem to place itself in digital loopback mode, your modem is placed in digital loopback mode while the remote modem is not. Data is entered and transmitted from the remote modem, sent across the phone line to your modem, and looped back to the remote modem.

MultiMobileUSB User Guide Appendix F: Upgrading the Modem Introduction Your modem is controlled by semi-permanent software, called firmware, which is stored in flash memory. Firmware is nonvolatile; that is, it remains stored in memory when the modem is turned off. However, it can be changed by either the manufacturer or the user as bugs are fixed or new features are added.
Appendix F - Upgrading the Modem 5. If the firmware version number is greater than the firmware version number found in “Step 1: Identify the Modem Firmware,” your modem has an older firmware version. Continue with “Step 3: Download the Upgrade File.” Warning: The first digit of the new firmware must match the first digit of the old firmware, or the modem may not work properly; e.g., if your current firmware version is 4.16, replace it only with 4.xx firmware, not 6.xx firmware.
MultiMobileUSB User Guide 2. Click the modem to be upgraded, and then click Next to proceed. 3.

Models Supported By These Scripts MTA128ST-USB, MTA128ST-USB-RC (Some models are identified with MTA128ST-USB-RC where the RC indicates there is no support for V.110 via hardware and so the V.110 scripts will not work.
MultiMobileUSB User Guide MTS MTA128ST-USB Generic This modem script makes no changes to the parameters of the terminal adapter except to disable command echoing (E0) and disable auto-answer (S0=0). Use a terminal program such as Z-Term, Black Night, or CKermit to make changes to parameters and then save the changes with &W0. When the script is run it will not set the terminal adapter to any factory default as most other scripts do, thus you can have a lot of control over the terminal adapter’s abilities.
