Modem Installation

Connect the Modem to Your System

Turn off your computer. Place the modem in a convenient location, and then connect it to your computer’s serial port, the phone line, AC power, and optionally your phone.

Connections – No Voice Connections with voice

Connect the Modem to Your PC

Plug one end of the RS-232 serial cable into the RS-232 connector on the modem, and plug the other end into a serial port connector on your computer, such as COM1 or COM2.

Connect the Modem to the Telephone Line (Optional)

For dial-up applications, plug one end of the provided telephone cable into the modem’s LINE jack, and the other end into a telephone wall jack. This is the only required connection.

Important: The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE jack. Do not plug the phone into the LINE jack or the line cable into the PHONE jack.

Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and

Industry Canada impose certain restrictions on equipment connected to public telephone systems.

Connect the Two-Wire Lease Line (Leased-Line Only)

For leased line information, see the User Guide, available on your

MultiModem Product CD.

Connect the Modem to the Phone (Optional)

If you want to connect a phone to the same line as the modem, plug the phone cable into the modem PHONE jack.

Connect the Microphone (Voice Option Only)

To connect a microphone, see the User Guide, available on your

MultiModem Product CD.

Connect the Speaker(s) (Voice Option Only)

For speakerphone or voice mail applications, use a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) plug male-to-male stereo patch cord to connect the SPKR jack on the side of the modem to the LINE IN jack on your sound card. If your sound card does not have a LINE IN jack, use its MIC jack. The stereo male-tomale patch cord can be purchased at a local PC retail store. If you do not have a sound card, you can plug an amplified speaker directly into the SPKR jack using a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) sterio plug.

Connect the Modem to the AC Power Outlet

The power switch is located on the right side of the modem. Make sure it is set to OFF.

Plug the universal power supply into the PWR jack on the modem. Plug the other end of the country-specific power supply cord into the universal power supply and the other end into the power outlet or power strip.

Caution: Use only the power supply supplied with the modem. Use of any other power supply voids the warranty and can damage the modem.

Power-on Test

When you apply power, the modem performs a diagnostic self-test. The

56 indicator should light. If this does not happen, check that the power switch is on, the power supply is solidly connected, and the AC outlet is live.
