1. Typically, the modem is mounted against a flat surface with two mounting screws. Drill the mounting holes at the desired location.
The mounting holes must separated by 4 -15/16 inches center-tocenter.

Step 2 – Connect the Modem to Your
System
For AC Power
Turn off your computer. Place the modem in a convenient location, and then connect it to your computer’s serial port, the phone line, and AC power.
For DC Power
For DC power, use the fused cable in place of the Universal Power
Supply and the AC Power Cord. It uses a 313000 Series fuse (length:
1.25” or 31.75mm; diameter: 0.25” or 6.35mm).

Steps for Connecting Your Modem to Your System
RS-232 Connection
Plug one end of the 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.
Phone Line Connection
Plug one end of the phone cable into the MT5634IND LINE jack and the other end into a phone line wall jack.
Power Connection
For AC
Plug the power supply cable with attached transformer block into the power connector on the MultiModem. Then plug the AC cord receptacle into the transformer block, and plug the other end of the of the AC cord into a power outlet or power strip.
Note: Use only the power supply supplied with the MT5634IND.
Use of any other power supply will void the warranty and could damage the modem.
For DC
Plug the fused cable into the power connector on the MultiModem.
Then attach the two wires at the other end of the fused cable to a
DC power source.
Step 3 – Install the Modem Driver
If you use Windows 98+, you must install the modem driver, which is installed using the Windows Plug and Play feature. Follow the four-step procedure below. If you use another operating system, see your operating system manual.
1. Make sure your modem is connected properly, and then turn on your computer. Windows should detect your new modem and open the Install New Modem wizard.
2. Insert the MT5634IND CD, and then click OK.
3. Windows installs and configures the modem.
4. Click Finish to exit.
Note for Windows NT
–
Windows NT inserts one additional prompt before Step 2. Follow the on-screen directions and select the Multi-Tech
MT5634SMI-V92-IND driver.

Step 4 – Configure the Modem for Your
Country or Region
Different countries have different requirements for how modems must function. Therefore, before you use your modem, you must configure it to match the defaults of the country/region in which you are using it. You must also do this if you move the modem to another country/region after it has been configured for the first country/region. You can use one of two configuration methods:
1. The Global Wizard. Directions follow on the next page.
2. AT Commands. See the User Guide for directions.
Using the Global Wizard to Configure Your Modem
1. Insert the MultiModemIND CD into the CD-ROM drive. The
Autorun menu should appear.
2. Click Initial Setup and Country/Region selection.
3. Choose either:
•
Run Global Wizard from CD. This will not load the wizard onto your hard drive, or
• Install Global Wizard on the HD. This will install the wizard onto your PC for future use.
4. The Global Wizard dialog displays. Follow the on-screen directions.
Step 5 – Install Data Communications
Software
Data communications software is designed to send and receive messages. Multi-Tech includes PhoneTools, a communications software program with your modem. However, the modem will work with other data communications software, such as HyperTerminal.
To install PhoneTools, insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive; click the
PhoneTools icon. You will be asked to choose your language. The software automatically loads onto your PC. See the PhoneTools user documentation included with the PhoneTools software.
