More information about COM settings is provided on
page 23. You should also check your fax modem
documentation for any instructions specific to your
particular fax modem.
5 Turn off the computer and disconnect the power cord
and any other cables.

Caution: As with any procedure involving microcircuitry,
you should take steps to eliminate static electricity, which
can destroy circuit boards such as the fax modem. It’s
best to use an anti-static wristband (available from your
computer vendor) for this. Otherwise, you can discharge
static by touching any unpainted metal surface on a grounded
(plugged-in) appliance. In addition, handle circuit boards by
their edges only, and avoid walking around, especially on car-
pet, while working with them.
6 Remove the cover from the computer and locate an
open 16-bit slot (approximately 6" long) on the com-
puter’s motherboard. (See your computer documen-
tation for information.)
7 Remove the spacer plate for that slot from the com-
puter’s interface panel by removing the screw hold-
ing it in place.
8 Remove the fax modem from its anti-static bag.
(Save the bag in case you need to ship or store the
board.)
