ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
Introduction  
Welcome to the world of data communications. You have acquired one  
of the finest intelligent data and fax modems available today from one  
of America’s oldest and most respected modem manufacturers—Multi-  
Tech Systems, Inc.  
ThenewIntelligentSerialInterfacecard,modelISI5634PCIisa  
multiportserialportexpansioncardwithfourV.90/K56flexmodems.  
The card’s capability can be doubled by adding an auxiliary module,  
which also contains four modems. It is an excellent hardware solution  
for adding fast serial ports to communication servers and async hosts  
that have 32-bit PCI bus architecture.  
Serial ports are essential to  
• Communication servers that pool modems and other  
communication devices for users on a LAN  
• Asynchronous hosts that provide user access through serial  
ports.  
The ISI5634PCI ships with drivers for the following multiuser operating  
systems: Windows® 2000, Windows NT, versions 3.51 and 4.0;  
Windows 95 , Windows 98, and Windows Me; Novell Netware  
versions 3.x and 4.x.; SCO Open Server 5; and Linux.  
The IntelligentSerialInterface card can be combined to support  
asynchronous serial devices (local or dial-up). The ports can be used  
to connect basic terminals with or without multiple pages of memory to  
multiplexer channels and asynchronous modems. Each ISI5634PCI port  
can support as many screens as there are physical pages of memory on  
the terminal. In Windows 95/98/Me, a built-in autodetect utility enables  
detection of Multi-Tech modems and sets the proper initialization  
strings.  
ISI5634PCI Modems  
The ISI5634PCI modems incorporate V.90/K56flex technology, which  
enables Internet connections at data rates up to 53 Kbps over standard  
telephone lines. V.90/K56flex technology is able to send data  
downstream from the Internet to your computer at these speeds  
because data on the telephone network typically is converted from  
6

Chapter1—IntroductionandDescription  
digital to analog only once before it reaches your modem. Upstream  
transmissions and transmissions between client modems are limited to  
data rates of 33.6 Kbps, as are downstream transmissions that are  
converted more than once on the telephone network.  
Note: Though these modems are capable of 56 Kbps download  
performance, line impairments, public telephone infrastructure, and  
other external technological factors currently prevent maximum  
56 Kbps connections.  
Modems on the ISI5634PCI card are Plug and Play capable with  
interactive automatic dialing and command mode configuration. In  
standard mode, you can store up to four command lines or telephone  
numbers of up to 40 characters each in the modems’ nonvolatile  
memory. In callback security mode, you can store up to 30 passwords  
and dialing strings. The modems pulse- or tone-dial and recognize dial  
tones and busy signals for reliable call-progress detection. The  
modems can detect AT&T calling card tones. They also have DTR  
dialing, CallerID, remoteconfiguration, callbacksecurity, two-wire  
leased-line, and 11-bit capabilities, and incorporate self-resetting  
lightning protection. Serial port speeds can be set to 230,400 bps. They  
are both FCC registered for connection without notification to the  
telephone company.  
TheISI5634PCIcardhasfull-duplexintelligentmodemswithV.42error  
correction, V.42bis data compression, and V.17 (14,400 bps), Class 1  
and 2, Group 3 fax capabilities. Voice functionality (+V commands) has  
also been added to the features of ISI5634PCI modems.  
IntelligentSerialInterface  
The ISI5634PCI is a multiport serial port expansion card that adds data  
buffering on each port for enhanced serial port performance. The  
ISI5634PCI features an on-board microprocessor to coordinate the  
communications activity of your local and remote terminals. Using the  
ISI5634PCI to provide additional serial connections enables your  
system’s processor to perform more efficiently since the ISI5634PCI  
handles all byte-by-byte interrupts generated by asynchronous  
terminals and stores the data in buffers.

ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
The processor, along with 256K bytes of RAM, works to allocate  
resources dynamically to the most active port. The ISI then generates  
one interrupt for an entire block of information and transfers the block  
to the system’s microprocessor.  
The ISI5634PCI has eight Mini RJ-11 jacks. It is a 3/4 size add-on card  
that supports a high-speed interface up to 230 Kbps.  
How to Use This Manual  
This manual contains hardware and operating system driver installation  
procedures, technical support and warranty information, and an  
appendix for additional information. Hardware configuration and  
installation procedures are described in Chapter 2. Installing the  
ISI5634PCI card also involves linking a driver to the operating system.  
This information is provided in Chapter 3.  
It is assumed you have basic PC skills. Therefore, we have not  
included step-by-step instructions for basic operations such as  
logging in and file editing, etc.  
Most of the steps listed in the driver installation section instruct you  
to press Enter. This is a reference to the key commonly known as the  
Enter, carriage-return, or Return key. Also, please note the difference  
between the letter O and the number 0. Both the letter and the number  
may be used in this manual.  
ISI5634PCI Applications  
The ISI5634PCI is an ideal solution for adding ports when a powerful  
microcomputer used as a server or host lacks enough connectivity to  
accommodate the desired number of users. The ISI5634PCI provides  
eight additional serial ports with every card installed, with a potential  
of four additional cards installed per system—for a total of thirty-two  
serial ports per system.

Introduction  
The ISI5634PCI card ships with drivers for each of the following  
operating systems: Windows® 2000, Windows NT, Windows 95,  
Windows 98, Windows Me, Novell Netware versions 3.x and 4.x, SCO  
Open Server 5, and Linux. This chapter describes the installation of  
these drivers.  
In most cases, you will receive the ISI software drivers on a CD-ROM.  
In certain situations, however, software may be downloaded from the  
MultiTech web site, often onto diskette, and then installed. The  
instructions in this chapter generally presume that the driver files are  
being installed from CD-ROM and therefore show driver files being  
loaded from locations on the ISI CD-ROM. If installation is from  
diskette, you will be loading driver files from file path locations on that  
diskette. For example, a driver file found at  
E:\servcard\drivers\win2000\when installing from CD-  
ROM, might be located simply at A:\if installation is from diskette.  
Installing a device driver modifies your system. For this reason, only  
the super user (system administrator) is allowed to perform the  
installation. If you cannot login as administrator, find the person in  
your organization with this authorization (i.e., password). To begin  
driver installation, login as administrator. Then proceed with the  
appropriate section: Windows 2000, Windows NT or Windows 95/98/  
Me. For Novell Netware, you need rights to read and write to the  
SYSTEMdirectory. TheUnix-basedOSsSCOandLinuxsimilarly  
require such administrative rights.  
Installing ISI5634PCI Software for Windows 2000  
NOTE: A series of ‘installation wizard’ screens will appear  
repeatedly during this procedure (step 12). This is not an error.  
Do not discontinue the procedure when the ‘installation wizard’  
screens repeatedly appear.  
1. Shut down Windows 2000 and turn off the PC.  
2. Install the ISI5634PCI card in an available PCI expansion slot in  
the computer. Follow the computer manufacturer's instructions  
concerning installation of expansion cards. Observe standard  
precautions regarding electro-static discharge (ESD) when

NetWare Driver Installation  
Multi-Tech Systems provides AIO drivers for the ISI5634PCI cards, so  
they can function with Novell compatible asynchronous applications  
(e.g., NetWare Connect). The AIO driver is simply an NLM (NetWare  
Loadable Module) that runs on the file server. Drivers must be loaded  
on the file server where the board is installed. Drivers can be loaded  
from the file server’s console prompt or incorporated for autoloading in  
theAUTOEXEC.NCFfile.  
The file AIOMTS.MDC contains Novell (version 3.12 and higher)  
initialization strings for ISI products not previously listed for use with  
BorderManager and Netware Connect. The file AIOMTS.MDC is  
included on the ISI Product Family CD. To benefit from the  
AIOMTS.MDC file, you must copy it from the CD to the appropriate  
directory on your computer.  
To use AIOMTS.MDC under Border Manager, RAS, NIAS in 4.2 or 5.x:  
Copy AIOMTS.MDC to your System directory.  
To use AIOMTS.MDC under Novell NetWare 3.x, 4.1, 4.11 with  
NetWare Connect 2.0.28 or higher:  
Copy AIOMTS.MDC to your System and System/AIO directory.  
To install the Multi-Tech AIO driver, copy the file AIOISIX.NLM to the  
system directory of the file server from a workstation on the network.  
To copy, you can use the following command:  
COPY E:\SERVCARD\DRIVERS\NOVELL\AIOSIX.NLM  
F:\SYSTEM  
51  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
If you have downloaded the ISI driver from the MultiTech web site  
onto a diskette, use this command:  
COPY A:\NOVELL\AIOISIX.NLM F:\SYSTEM  
To load the driver, go to the system or PC console (where the ISI card  
is installed) and enter the following at the prompt:  
LOAD AIOISIX[port=W] [interrupt=X] [name=Y] [note=Z]  
Because the ISI5634PCI models are PCI-bus cards, Netware will set up  
the interrupt (IRQ) and I/O address automatically.  
To install the ISI card scripts, copy aiomdms.mdc to  
f:\system\aio\directory.ClickYestooverwritetheexisting  
aiomdms.mdcfile.  
Configuring Ports for NetWare Connect  
When the driver is installed, it will allocate consecutive ports for the  
ISI card as follows:  
• 8 consecutive ports for the ISI5634PCI-8  
• 4 consecutive ports for the ISI5634PCI-4  
To set up NetWare Connect ports, enter LOAD NWCCON at the  
NetWare console prompt. LOAD NWCCON opens the NetWare  
Connect Configuration Utility. Select the appropriate menu options  
(modem type, speed, flow control, etc.).  
Removing the Driver (Novell)  
In Novell, remove file AIOISIX.NLM from the system directory and  
make the appropriate changes to the Autoexec.ncf file.  
SCO Open Server 5 Driver Installation  
The ISI driver for SCO Open Server 5 is shipped on CD-ROM (FAT file  
system) and can also be downloaded from the Multi-Tech web site. In  
both cases, the driver files are compressed (“tarred”). Users installing  
from the CD-ROM should begin at “To install from CD-ROM” directly  
below. Users installing from a floppy disk should skip down to “To  
install driver from floppy disk” later in this section. The filename of the  
SCO5 driver in its tarred form is sco50x.tar.

Activating Ports in SCO Open Server 5  
SCO Open Server 5 provides a device database that monitors the  
activity of serial ports through which users can log onto the host. If  
your ISI ports are used by terminals (e.g., to allow users to log onto  
your host), you must create an entry in the system’s device database  
that furnishes specific information for the terminals that will be used on  
each ISI port. The database is referenced each time a user attempts to  
log in. If there is no database entry for a particular terminal, access to  
the host is denied.  
1. Turn on your system and verify that the firmware for each  
ISI5634PCI card loads successfully. If the firmware for a given  
ISI5634PCI card does not load, none of its ports will be accessible.  
(If this happens, see Multi-Tech’s Administrative Utility section  
in this manual.)  
2. Type the complete name of the first device you want to create in  
usr/lib/uucp/Devices. Substitute the specific base  
name, board number, and port letter for the generic parameters in  
the expression ttylbx. Use a lower-case xvalue for local DTE  
(terminal) support and an upper case Xvalue for modem control  
for each port you want to enable. Example: ttyl2Adenotes  
the second ISI card (2) and the first port on that card (A). The port  
status can be altered later, but one setting must be selected at this  
time. The ACU line would read as follows:  
ACU ttylbX - 9600 dialer name. Replace b, X  
and dialer-name with appropriate values.  
3. Repeat this process for each port on each board you have  
installed. Record the setting you select for each port.  
4. Using device names created in the previous section, type the  
following command for each port you want to activate: enable  
ttylbx

ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
5. Repeat this command for each port you want to activate, using the  
lower case letter for local terminal use or upper case for modem  
control.  
Note: Only one of the options (e.g., modem control or local  
terminal access) should be enabled for any port at one time. For  
example, you cannot enable ttyl1a and then enable ttyl1A.  
To change the status of a port, disable the current status  
(disable ttyl1a) and then enable it for the desired status  
(enable ttyl1A).  
RemovingtheDriver(SCOOpenServer5)  
To remove the Multi-Tech Serial Card Driver, enter the configuration  
utility (e.g., custom for SCO Open Server 5) and follow instructions to  
remove the entire driver and rebuild the kernel without the ISI driver. If  
it is necessary to reinstall the driver due to I/O address or IRQ overlap,  
remove the driver first.  
Note: Remove the driver before permanently removing the ISI card from  
the computer.  
Linux Driver for ISI5634PCI-4/8  
This is the standard installation procedure for Linux and is applicable  
to all Linux operating systems of the correct kernel level (2.0, 2.2, or  
2.4). The next major section of this manual, RedHat Linux 6.2/7.0 RPM  
Drivers for ISI Server Cards (PCI bus only), is an alternative  
installation procedure applicable only to RedHat Linux 6.2 and 7.0  
using the RedHat Package Management System (RPM). Note that  
RedHat Linux versions 6.2 and 7.0 both use the Linux 2.2 kernel and the  
applicable driver can be installed using this standard installation  
procedure, as well.  
LINUX: Pre-Installation Issues  
When unpacking the Linux driver, there are two choices, one driver for  
the2.0.xkernel(atthiswriting, itisfilenameL300_20X.TAR), andone  
driver that works for both the 2.2.x kernel and the 2.4.x kernel (at this  
writing,itisfilenameL305_22X_24X.TAR). Beabsolutelypositive  
about which kernel you have! Note that updated driver files may be

issued from time to time.  
The 'make' utility, GNU C compiler, and the kernel sources need to be  
installed on your system. If any of these are missing, the compilation  
will fail. Most later Linux OSs install these elements automatically .  
LINUX: Copying the driver from the media  
The Linux drivers (2.0 and 2.2/2.4 kernels) are shipped in compressed  
(‘tarred’) form on a CD-ROM formatted with the FAT file system. In  
some cases, users may download Linux ISI drivers from the MultiTech  
web site onto diskette (in ext2 format). We present instructions for  
both situations below.  
LINUX: Copying and untarring the driver from CD-ROM  
1. Mount the CD-ROM using this command:  
mount -r /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom  
2. Change directory  
cd /mnt/cdrom  
3. List the files on the CD-ROM and locate the directory for the kernel  
in use (2.0 or 2.2/2.4), using this command  
ls  
4. Untar the appropriate Linux driver using this command:  
> tar vxf {filename}/tmp  
Atthiswriting, thefilenamewillbeeitherL300_20X.TARor  
L305_22X_24X.TAR.  
LINUX: Copying and untarring the driver from a floppy  
The ISI driver .tar file can be copied from a DOS formatted floppy using  
the 'mcopy' command if the 'mtools' have been installed. Issue 'mcopy  
a:isilinux.tar <destination folder>' to copy the isilinux.tar ( or current  
driver name) file to the destination folder. As an alternative, the floppy  
can be manually mounted and the file copied to the required  
destination folder.

ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
NOTE: To read from a DOS formatted floppy, a kernel with support for  
the FAT file system (either statically linked in the kernel or as modules)  
is required.  
Steps for copying the driver from a floppy:  
1. Linux floppy disks are in ext2 format.  
2. Insert Linux driver in drive A: and mount floppy drive.  
> mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy  
3. Copy files from floppy to a temporary directory on hard drive.  
> mkdir /isi  
> cd /isi  
> cp /mnt/floppy/kernel_2.2.x/* /isi  
After you have copied the installation tar file to a folder, use the  
command 'tar xvf isilinux.tar' to untar (unzip or de-  
compress) the installation files in that folder.  
LINUX: Driver installation and loading  
Execute the 'Install' script to build the driver and to copy the driver and  
firmware files to the required folder.  
> cd /isi  
>./Install  
For ISI cards with the ISA bus, the installation script requires the user  
to type in the I/O address and the IRQ to be used. However, for ISI  
cards with the PCI bus (ISI5634PCI cards have the PCI bus), simply  
press ENTER when asked for addresses and IRQs. The installation  
creates the script file 'ISICOMStart' in the destination folder.  
'ISICOMStart' automates the loading process for the driver and  
firmware.  
To view busy I/O address space on your system, enter  
cat/proc/ioports  
62  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 3Software/Driver Installation  
To view busy IRQs, enter:  
cat /proc/interrupts  
You must load the driver before you can load the firmware. You can  
load the driver manually using the 'insmod' utility. For ISI cards with  
the ISA bus, the I/O base address and the IRQ required by the card  
also need to be passed as parameters to insmod (this does not apply to  
ISI5634PCI cards because they are equipped with the PCI bus).  
insmod isicom io=card1, ... card4 irq=card1,  
... card4  
The PCI cards and their configurations will be auto-detected by the  
driver.  
You can manually load the firmware into all of the installed ISI cards  
simultaneously by executing the 'frmld' utility in the installation folder.  
The firmware to all the installed cards can be manually loaded by  
executing the 'firmld' utility in the installation folder. This utility  
requires the firmware files (.bin) to be located in the /usr/local/ISICOM/  
folder.  
LINUX: Setting the baud rate  
The 'stty' utility can be used to set the baud rate of a particular port.  
For example, to set the baud rate of the first port on the first card  
(ttyM1a) to 38400 bps, execute 'stty 38400 < /dev/ttyM1a'.  
The current baud rate can be viewed by executing 'stty < /dev/  
ttyM1a'.  
LINUX: Verifying the ports  
Terminal utilities like 'minicom' can be used to verify the ports, 'talk'  
to the modem, and dial out.  
To configure 'minicom' for a particular port, run it with the '-s'  
option. In the 'serial port setup' menu option, set the serial device to  
the required ISI port device (for example, '/dev/ttyM1a' for the  
63  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
first port on the first card). Save the configuration for a particular port  
using the 'save setup as' menu option as, for example, '1a' for the port /  
dev/ttyM1a. To connect to the port /dev/ttyM1a using minicom the  
next time, 'minicom 1a' needs to be executed.  
LINUX: TTY Devices Created by the Drivers:  
Device files corresponding to ports on the ISI card are created in  
the /dev folder. Use ttyMxyfor normal ports and cumxyfor  
corresponding callout ports. Normal ports (ttyM) are configured for  
dial-in connections. Callout ports (cum) are used for dial-out  
connections.  
In these expressions (ttyMxyand cumxy), the letter xis the  
card number (1-4), and yis the port designator (a, b, c, ...).  
The ISI Linux driver creates the following TTY devices in /dev  
directory:  
- /dev/ttyM1a TO /dev/ttyM1pfor the first ISI card  
- /dev/ttyM2a TO /dev/ttyM2pfor the second ISI card  
- /dev/ttyM3a TO /dev/ttyM3pfor the third ISI card

LINUX -- Dial-in configuration:  
To configure a particular port for dial-in, utilities like 'mgetty' need to be  
installed on the system. If, for example, the port /dev/ttyM2c needs to  
be configured for a remote-access dial-in connection, an entry of the  
form 'M2c:12345:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttyM2c' needs to be added in  
the /etc/inittab file. After you have made the change, execute 'init q' so  
that the 'init' process re-reads the inittab file and spawns the mgetty  
process to wait for an incoming connection. Users can then dial in, use  
their user names and passwords to log in, and access their accounts on  
the machine.  
To disable dial-in access on a particular port, change the entry in the /  
etc/inittab file to 'M2c:12345:off:/sbin/mgetty ttyM2c'or  
just comment-out that entry by prefixing a '#' to the entry on the line.  
LINUX -- PPP setup:  
The 'PPP-HOWTO' (a document that is available as a part of the  
'HOWTO' documentation on most of the distributions under /usr/doc/  
HOWTO) explains in detail the procedure for configuring a Linux  
machine as a PPP server. This information is also available at  
http://www.interweft.com.au/other/ppp-howto/ppp-howto.html.  
The documentation in the PPP-HOWTO is directly applicable to ISI  
ports.

ISI5634PCI/4/8UserGuide  
Note: A base I/O address of 0, e.g., ISIBaseX=oxo, or omission of these  
parameters for any card X, disables that particular card.  
Miscellaneous:  
Device files corresponding to ports on the ISI5634PCI cards are created in  
the /dev folder. Use ttyMxy for normal ports and cumxyfor  
corresponding callout ports. The letter xis the card number (1–4), and y  
is the port number, (a–d) for 4-port cards or (a-h) for 8-port cards.  
Normal ports (ttyM) are configured for dial-in connections. Callout  
ports (cum) are used for dial-out connections.  
To view busy I/O address space on your system, enter:  
cat /proc/ioports  
To view busy IRQs, enter:  
cat /proc/interrupts  
To load the driver manually, use insmod.  
Example: To load two ISI cards configured with base I/O addresses 0x210  
and 0x200 and IRQs 5 and 10, enter the following in the destination folder:  
insmod isicom  
ISIBase1=0x210  
Irq1=5  
ISIBase2=0x200  
Irq2=10  
To remove the driver manually, enter rmmod isicom. This removes  
the driver only if no ISI ports are in use.  
Removing the ISI Driver (Linux)  
1. Type cd /usr/local. Press ENTER.  
2. Type rm -r ISICOM. Press ENTER.  
3. This will remove driver for all ISI5634PCI cards in that Linux server.  
4. Remove the isictl file by typing “rm isictl” in the /dev directory.  
5. Remove all devices that start with ttyM1x, ttyM2x, ttyM3x and ttyM4x  
in the /dev directory.

Driver for Multi-Tech ISI Server Cards (for PCI and ISA busses)”) can  
still be used for any Linux operating system of the correct kernel level  
(including RedHat Linux versions 6.2 and 7.0, if so desired). Note that  
RedHat Linux versions 6.2 and 7.0 both use the Linux 2.2 level kernel.  
LINUX-RPM: Pre-Installation Issues  
The 'make' utility, GNU C compiler, and the kernel sources need to be  
installed on your system. If any of these are missing, the compilation

LINUX-RPM: Copying the driver from a floppy  
The ISI driver .rpm file can be copied from a DOS formatted floppy  
using the 'mcopy' command if the 'mtools' have been installed.  
For RPM version 6.2, issue the command  
'mcopy a:isicom-1.1-3.src.rpm <destination  
folder>' to copy the isicom-1.1-3.src.rpm ( or current driver name) file  
to the destination folder.  
For RPM version 7.0, issue the command  
'mcopy a:isicom-1.2-3.src.rpm <destination  
folder>' to copy the isicom-1.2-3.src.rpm ( or current driver name) file  
to the destination folder.  
As an alternative, the floppy can be manually mounted and the file  
copied to the required destination folder.  
NOTE: To read from a DOS formatted floppy, a kernel with support for  
the FAT file system (either statically linked in the kernel or as modules)  
is required.  
Steps for copying the driver from a floppy:  
1. Linux floppy disks are in ext2 format.  
2. Insert Linux driver in drive A: and mount floppy drive.  
> mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy  
3. Copy files from floppy to a temporary directory on hard drive.  
> mkdir /isi  
> cd /isi  
4. The current isicom.o file should be backed up before installing the  
RPM. The easiest way is simply to rename it or copy it into another  
file. For example, “cp(or mv) isicom.o isicom.original”. It  
is usually located in the /usr/local/ISICOM directory. For the version 7

Removing the ISI Driver (Linux-RPM)  
1. To remove the ISI driver, type rpm -e isicom  
If more than one instance of the isicom file exists in the system, an error  
message will be returned. To resolve this, type rpm -q isicom. Press  
ENTER. All isicom RPM modules will be listed. Decide which of  
these files you want to delete. Then type rpm -e filename to  
delete those files.  
Installing and Configuring Your Software  
You must have communications software installed in your computer to  
use the Multi-Tech modems on the ISI5634PCI card. If you want to use  
communications software that is already installed, you should  
reconfigure it for your new modem. Otherwise, install the data and fax  
communicationssoftwareprovidedtheISI5634PCI.  
1. Turn on your computer and run your communications software.  
2. Find the dialog box or menu that allows you to specify your  
modem. See different data communications examples below:  
• In Windows Terminal, select Settings and then Modem  
Commands  
• In HyperTerminal, select File, Properties, and then Phone  
Number  
3. Select your modem from the software’s modem list. If not listed,  
choose a generic modem and modify the settings as necessary.  
4. Change the modem initialization string, if necessary. The factory  
default configuration works well for most purposes.  
• To load the factory default configuration, use AT&F.  
72  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Chapter 3Software/Driver Installation  
• To load a custom configuration that was saved using the &W  
command, use ATZ. Note that the Z command must be in a  
command string by itself.  
• For a Macintosh, the initialization should include the &D0  
command.  
• If you don’t want the modem to always answer the phone, add  
S0=0 to the string.  
• To use Caller ID with the modem, add S0=2 to the string (Caller  
ID information is sent between the first and second rings, so the  
phone must ring at least twice before the modem picks up the  
line.) Depending on the software, you may have to end the  
string with a carriage return character (^M).  
Note: To change the modem’s default configuration, type new  
commands in the software’s terminal window, adding the &W  
command to store them in the modem’s nonvolatile memory.  
For instance, to create a default configuration for a Macintosh  
computer that turns off autoanswer, type AT&F&D0S0=0&W.  
The new configuration loads automatically whenever the modem  
is turned on or receives the ATZ command.  
5. Select the port where the modem is connected (normally starts at  
COM5).  
6. Select your serial port speed and label it maximum speed, DTE bps,  
or baud rate.  
• If you use data compression, set your serial port baud rate to  
four times the modem’s maximum transmission speed or faster.  
However, few files can be compressed enough to require speeds  
that high, and not all serial ports can handle speeds that high.  
• Set the serial port baud rate to 320,400 bps.  
7. If the software has an autobaud selection make sure it is disabled.  
Autobaud applies only to older modems and can cause problems if  
enabled.  
8. If the software allows you to edit the no connect messages (NO  
CARRIER,BUSY,NOANSWER,NODIALTONE),makesurethere  
is space between DIAL and TONE in NO DIALTONE.

AT Commands  
AT commands are used to control the operation of your modem. They  
are so called because each command must be preceded by the  
characters AT to get the ATtention of the modem.  
AT commands can be issued only when the modem is in command  
mode or online command mode. The modem is in command mode  
whenever it is not connected to another modem. The modem is in data  
mode whenever it is connected to another modem and ready to  
exchange data. Online command mode is a temporary state where you  
can issue commands to the modem while connected to another modem.  
To put the modem into online command mode from data mode, you  
must issue an escape sequence (+++) followed immediately by the AT  
characters and the command, e.g., +++ATH to hang up the modem. To  
return to data mode from online command mode, you must issue the  
commandATO.  
To send AT commands to the modem, you must use a communications  
program such as the HyperTerminal applet in Windows 95 and NT 4.0  
or the communications program included with your modem. You can  
issue commands to the modem either directly—typing them in the  
terminal window of the communications program or indirectly—  
configuring the operating system or communications program to send  
the commands automatically. Fortunately, communications programs  
make daily operation of modems effortless by hiding the commands  
from the user. Most users, therefore, need to use AT commands only  
when reconfiguring the modem, e.g., to turn autoanswer on or off.  
The format for entering an AT command is ATXn, where X is the  
command and n is the specific value for the command, sometimes  
called the command parameter. The value is always a number. If the  
value is zero, you can omit it from the command; thus, AT&W is  
equivalent to AT&W0. Most commands have a default value, which is  
the value that is set at the factory. The default values are shown in the  
AT Command Summary, which begins on the next page.  
You must press ENTER to send the command to the modem. Any time  
the modem receives a command, it sends a response known as a result  
code. The most common result codes are OK, ERROR, and the  
CONNECT messages that the modem sends to the computer when it is

connecting to another modem. For a table of valid result codes, see  
Result Codes at the end of this chapter.  
You can issue several commands in one line, in what is called a  
command string. The command string begins with AT and ends when  
you press ENTER. Spaces to separate the commands are optional; they  
are ignored by the command interpreter. The most familiar command  
string is the initialization string, which is used to configure the  
modem when it is turned on or reset or when your communications  
software calls another modem.

About DTMF  
DTMF (dual tone multi frequency) is the signal to the phone company  
that you generate when you press an ordinary telephone’s touch keys.  
In the United States and perhaps elsewhere, it’s known as  
“Touchtone” phone (formerly a registered trademark of AT&T). DTMF  
has generally replaced loop disconnect (“pulse” or “rotary”) dialing.  
With DTMF, each key you press on your phone generates two tones  
of specific frequencies. So that a voice can’t imitate the tones, one tone  
is generated from a high-frequency group of tones and the other from a  
low frequency group. Here are the signals you send when you press  
your touchtone phone keys:

#
When any key is pressed, both the high and low tones of of the row  
are generated, hence the name “dual tone”. For example, pressing the  
‘5’ button generates the tones 770Hz and 1336Hz. The frequencies  
were chosen to avoid harmonics (no frequency is a multiple of another,  
the difference between any two frequencies does not equal any of the  
frequencies, and the sum of any two frequencies does not equal any of  
the frequencies).

Chapter 4AT Commands, S-Registers, Result Codes  
Dual Tone Multi-frequency (DTMF) was a technique proposed by the  
phone company to replace “pulse dialing” to make dialing faster and  
more reliable. In anticipation to adding other “customer services”, 6  
additional digits were included, totaling 16 digits. Most commercial  
phones only include 12 digits. Many specialized phones and telephone  
equipment (such as ADSI phones, PBXes, etc.) utilize all 16 digits.  
DTMF was first introduced in the 1960s to the general public as “touch  
tone” dialing. The conversion from “pulse dialing” to “touch tone”  
dialing took over 20 years in the US. To this date (and in the  
foreseeable future) all phone companies support pulse dialing, and  
most phones you buy still allow you to switch to pulse. In the 80s,  
DTMF found a complete new use as a “key pad” for voice mail and  
interactive voice response systems. Since these systems have become  
a way of life now, DTMF has become the most common “man machine”  
interface.  
S-Registers  
Certain modem values, or parameters, are stored in memory locations  
called S-registers. Use the S command to read or to alter the contents  
of S-registers (see previous section).

FCC Part 15  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for  
a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These  
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful  
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial  
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the  
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is  
likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be  
required to correct the interference at his own expense.  
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.  
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.  
(2) This device must accept any interference that may cause  
undesired operation.  
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly  
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the  
user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Canadian Limitations Notice: Ringer Equivalence  
Number  
Notice: The ringer equivalence number (REN) assigned to each  
terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of  
terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface, The  
termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices  
subject only to the requirement that the sum of the ringer equivalence  
numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.  
Notice: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This  
certification means that the equipment meets certain  
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety  
requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will  
operate to the user’s satisfaction.  
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is  
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local  
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed  
using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be  
aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent  
degradation of service in some situations. Repairs to certified  
equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance  
facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by  
the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions may give the  
telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect  
the equipment.  
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground  
connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic  
water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution  
may be particularly important in rural areas.  
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections  
themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection  
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

Fax Branding Statement  
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for  
any person to use a computer or other electronic device, including fax  
machines, to send any message unless such message clearly contains  
thefollowinginformation:  
• Date and time the message is sent  
• Identification of the business or other entity, or other individual  
sending the message  
• Telephone number of the sending machine or such business, other  
entity, or individual  
This information is to appear in a margin at the top or bottom of each  
transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission. (Adding this  
information in the margin is referred to as fax branding.)  
Since any number of fax software packages can be used with this  
product, users must refer to the their fax software manual for setup  
details. Typically, the fax branding information must be entered via the  
configuration menu of the software.

Appendix A - Base I/O Address Switch Settings  
New Zealand Telecom Warning Notice  
Use of pulse dialing, when this equipment is connected to the same  
line as other equipment, may give rise to ‘bell tinkle’ or noise and may  
also cause a false answer condition. Should such problems occur, the  
user should NOT contact the Telecom Faults Service.  
The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones, as this is faster  
than pulse (decadic) dialing and is readily available on almost all New  
Zealand telephone exchanges.  
Warning Notice: No '111' or other calls can be made from this device  
during a mains power failure.  
International Modem Restrictions  
Some dialing and answering defaults and restrictions may vary for  
international modems. Changing settings may cause a modem to  
become non-compliant with national telecom requirements in specific  
countries. Also note that some software packages may have features  
or lack restrictions that may cause the modem to become non-  
compliant.
