USING MODEM STATION

TECHNICAL STUFF:
“Negotiation” is the noise we hear
when two modems connect. The
modems exchange information
about their respective protocols
and configurations. Once they
agree on the fastest protocol they
can both handle, transmission
begins.
STORED NUMBERS
The “Stored Numbers” screen displays the
phone numbers currently stored in your
modem’s memory.
Use this screen to edit or add numbers stored
in the modem’s memory.
To store a number in your modem’s memory,
simply click in one of the entry boxes. Type in
the phone number exactly as you would dial it.
NOTE: Position Zero has a special feature.
You can set your modem to automatically dial
this number when your computer is turned on
or when it is reset.
This is very useful if you are using your modem
with a “dumb terminal” or know that you need
to connect to a specific bulletin board or listing
service.
