The modem may not be connected to a party line or to a coin operated telephone. 2. The modem manufacturer must make any repairs to the modem to maintain valid FCC registration. 3. Notification to the telephone company is no longer required prior to connecting registered equipment, but upon request from the telephone company, the user shall tell the telephone company which line the equipment is connected to as well as the registration number and ringer equivalence number of the registered protective circuitry. FCC information is printed on a label on the bottom of the modem. i.2 FCC Notice This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a digital device, pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used the instructions, may cause interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

3 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a curcuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/tv technician for help. Shielded interconnect cables and a shielded power cord must be employed with this equipment to insure compliance with the pertinent RF emission limits governing this device. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. NOTE : The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or T.V. interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. i.3 DOC Notice Notice: The Canadian Department of Communications 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. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). 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. The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage or the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 100. Locate an analog telephone line. Many offices have digital telephone lines, which will not work with a modem. Warning: Do not connect your modem to a digital telephone line. Modems are designed for use only with analog telephone lines; connecting to a digital telephone line may damage the modem. Verify that the line is analog before connecting. Fax machines use analog telephone lines. If you can't find an analog voice line, find a fax machine and use its line.

4 1 - INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of this outstanding Fax/Data Modem. This manual describes how to operate your new Fax/Data Modem. Instructions for installing your Fax/Data Modem will be found in the Installation Manual, while the information in this manual, deals exclusively with the operation of the modem after it is installed, such as the command set, the internal configuration registers, troubleshooting and testing. Features : These Fax/Data Modems combine the features of a bps data modem and a bps FAX modem. Your new Fax/Data Modem gives your personal computer the ability to send and receive FAX messages over the telephone line like a standard FAX machine. Your Fax/Data Modem also allows your PC to communicate with other personal computers, terminals or BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) through the data modem functions. When used as a data modem your Fax/Data Modem uses the standard AT command set and is fully compatible with ITU-T V.42, V.42bis, V.34, V.32bis, V.32, V.22bis, V.23, V.22, V.21, MNP 2-5 and Bell 103. When used as a Fax/Data Modem it communicates with all ITU-T Group 3 FAX machines and is compatible with ITU-T V.27ter and V.29, V.17 and T.30. Switching between DATA mode operation and FAX mode operation of your Fax/Data Modem is done through its firmware, no hardware settings are required. If you are already familiar with the use of a modem and the Hayes AT command set, this modem will be extremely easy for you to use. Just read the installation procedures in the installation manual and you are ready to begin operation. If you are new to modem communications, we recommend that you read through this manual first. If you come across terms that you don't understand, consult the glossary. Words in boldface type are command names, commands, or default settings. Carriage returns (Enter) are noted with <CR> or [ENTER]; this does not mean to enter these characters literally; but instead to press the Enter key. This manual is written to be used for several models of Fax/Data Modems. Some of the information in this manual may not apply to your fax/data modem. 2 - COMMAND REFERENCE This chapter provides an alphabetized reference with examples for all commands for the modem. The system of commands is depicted below in Figure 2-1. To use these commands for dialing or configuring the modem, make sure the communications software package you will be using lets you operate the modem through its interna1 commands. If your software permits use of the modem's internal commands, read this chapter. If not, read your software user's manual and ignore the rest of this manual.

5 2.1 General Command Information Except for the A/ command and the escape command described in Section 2.4, all commands must be prefixed with the attention code AT. For instance, the A command (below) would be entered as: "AT A <CR>". Without the AT prefix, the command line cannot be executed. Once entered, AT cannot be deleted with the Backspace or Delete keys. More than one command can be placed on a single line and, if desired, separated with spaces for readability. Once the carriage return (Enter) key is pressed, the command line is executed. A line with no carriage return is ignored. The modem accepts either upper or lower case characters in the command line and ignores any spaces within or between commands. Typing errors can be corrected with the Backspace key. Exceptions are noted in the description of specific commands. A command without any parameter is equivant to that the parameter 0 is being used, for example, ATH is equal to ATH AT Commands A Go On-line in Answer Mode This command instructs the modem to go off-hook immediately and then make a handshake with the remote modem. Handshaking is not available during leased line operation. A is usually used to manually answer an incoming call. D Go On-line in Originate Mode D instructs the modem to go off-hook immediately and automatically dial the number contained in the dial string following D. The dial string may contain any of the dial modifiers contained in the following section. The D command without a dial string is usually used to call a remote modem in leased-line operation mode. During this kind of operation, the dial tone monitor should be disabled with the X0, X1, or X3 commands.

(default) 2.3 Dial Modifiers This section describes all of the dial modifiers which are used in dial strings. 0-9 DTMF digits 0 to 9. * The 'star' digit (tone dialing only). # The 'gate' digit (tone dialing only). P Select Pulse Dialing T Select Tone Dialing S=n Dial one of three telephone numbers (n) stored in the modem's nonvolatile memory.! Flash W Wait for Dial Tone The modem will wait for dial tone before dialing the digits following "W". If no dial tone is detected within the time specified by S7, the modem will abort the rest of the sequence, return on-hook, and generate an error message., Dial Pause The modem will pause for a time specified by S8 before dialing the digits following ",". ; Return to Command State

14 Added to the end of a dial string, this causes the modem to return to the command state after it processes the portion of the dial string preceding the ";". This allows the user to issue additional AT commands while remaining off-hook. The additional AT commands may be placed in the original command line following the ";" and/or may be entered on subsequent command lines. The modem will enter call progress only after an additional dial command is issued without the ";" terminator. Use "H" to abort the dial in progress, and go back on-hook. 2.4 Commands Not Preceded by AT ^ Enable Calling Tone Two commands, A/ and +++, are neither preceded by the attention code AT nor followed by a carriage return. A/ Repeat Command A/ repeats the execution of the last command line stored in the command buffer. If the last command line is invalid, the ERROR result code will appear on the screen. Note that A/ cannot be preceded by AT; if it is, ERROR will appear on the screen. +++ Escape When the modem has established a connection and has entered on-line data mode, it is possible to break into the data transmission in order to issue further commands to the modem in an on-line command mode. This is achieved by the DTE sending to the modem a sequence of three ASCII characters specified by register S2. The default character is '+'. The timing of the three characters must comply with specific time constrains. There is a guard time before the first character (the pre-sequence time), a guard time following the third character (the post-sequence time), and a guard time-out between the first and second characters and between the second and third characters (the inter-character time). These times are controlled by the value recorded in register S Result Code Verbose Digit Description OK 0 Command executed without errors CONNECT 1 Connect to another modem RING 2 Detect an incoming ring NO CARRIER 3 Carrier lost or never detected ERROR 4 Invalid command or invalid character CONNECT Connection established at 1200 bps NO DIALTONE 6 Dial tone not detected within timeout BUSY 7 Detects a busy tone after dialing NO ANSWER 8 No ringback or quiet answer was detected by the modem CONNECT Connection established at 2400 bps (DCE/DTE speed) CONNECT Connection established at 4800 bps (DCE/DTE speed) CONNECT Connection established at 9600 bps (DCE/DTE speed) CONNECT Connection established at 7200 bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE speed) CONNECT Connection established at bps (DCE/DTE speed)

These registers are memory locations inside your modem which control your modem's operation. You usually do not have to worry about setting any register because the default values work for most applications. The S registers are summarized in Table 3-1, along with their default values. Registers denoted with an "*" may be stored in one of the two user profiles by entering the &Wn command. One of these profiles may be loaded at any time by using the Zn command. The factory default values are stored in ROM and are loaded into the active configuration at power-up or by the Zn command. In addition, the designated default profile is subsequently loaded, and may change some of the factory default values. The designated default profile can be changed by entering the &Yn command. where 'n' is one of the two possible user profiles. The factory defaults can be loaded at any time by entering the &F command. 3.1 S Registers Summary The following chart summarizes your modem's registers: Register Function Range Units Save Default S0 Rings to Auto-Answer rings * 0 S1 Ring Counter rings 0 S2 Escape Character ASCII * 43 S3 Carriage Return Character ASCII 13 S4 Line Feed Character ASCII 10 S5 Backspace Character ASCII 6 S6 Wait Time for Dial Tone s * 2 S7 Wait Time for Carrier s * 45 S8 Pause Time for Dial Delay Modifier s * 2 S9 Carrier Detect Response Time s * 6 S10 Carrier Loss Disconnect Time s * 14 S11 DTMF Tone Duration s * 95 S12 Escape Code Guard Time s * 50 S13 Reserved S14 General Bit Mapped Options - - * 138 (8Ah) S15 Reserved - - -

Setting this register to zero disable autoanswer mode. Range: rings Default: 0 S1 Ring Counter S1 is incremented each time the modem detects a ring signal on the telephone line. S1 is cleared if no rings occur over an eight second interval. Range: rings Default: 0 S2 Escape Character S2 holds the decimal value of the ASCII character used as the escape character. The default value corresponds to an ASCII '+'. A value over 127 disables the escape process, i.e., no escape character will be recognized. Range: 0-255, ASCII decimal Default: 43 (+) S3 Carriage Return Character Sets the command line and result code terminator character. Pertains to asynchronous operation only. Range: Default: 0-127, ASCII decimal 13 (Carriage Return)

17 S4 Line Feed Character Sets the character recognized as a line feed. Pertains to asynchronous operation only. The Line Feed control character is output after the Carriage Return control character if verbose result codes are used. Range: Default: 0-127, ASCII decimal 10 (Line Feed) S5 Backspace Character Sets the character recognized as a backspace. Pertains to asynchronous operation only. The modem will not recognized the Backspace character if it is set to a value that is greater than 32 ASCII. This character can be used to edit a command line. When the echo command is enabled, the modem echoes back to the local DTE the Backspace character, an ASCII space character and a second Backspace character; this means a total of three characters are transmitted each time the modem processes the Backspace character. Range: Default: 0-32, ASCII decimal 8 (Backspace) S6 Wait Time for Dial Tone Before Blind Dialing, or After "W" Dial Modifier (W- Class Models) Sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem will wait before starting to dial after going off-hook when blind dialing. This operation, however, may be afftected by some ATX options. The "Wait for Dial Tone" call progress feature (W dial modifier in the dial string) will override the value in register S6. The modem always pauses for a minimum of 2 seconds, even if the value of S6 is less than 2 seconds. Range: seconds Default: 6 S7 Wait Time For Carrier After Dial, For Silence, or For Dial Tone After "W" Dial Modifier 1. Sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem will wait for carrier before hanging up. The timer is started when the modem finishes dialing (originate), or 2 seconds after going off-hook (answer). In originate mode, the timer is reset upon detection of answer tone if allowed by country restrictions. 2. Sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem will wait for dial tone when encountering a "W" dial modifier before continuing with the next dial string parameter. Range: seconds Default: 45 S8 Pause Time For Dial Delay

18 Sets the time, in seconds, that the modem must pause when the "," dial modifier is encountered in the dial string. Range: seconds Default: 2 S9 Carrier Detect Response Time Sets the time, in tenths of a second, that the carrier must be present before the modem considers it valid and turns on RLSD. As this time is increased, there is less chance to detect a false carrier due to noise from the telephone line. Range: Default: tenths of a second 6 (0.6 second) S10 Lost Carrier to Hang Up Delay Sets the length of time, in tenths of a second, that the modem waits before hanging up after a loss of carrier. This allows for a temporary carrier loss without causing the local modem to disconnect. When register S10 is set to 255, the modem functions as if a carrier is always present. The actual interval the modem waits before disconnecting is the value in register S10 minus the value in register S9. Therefore, the S10 value must be greater than the S9 value or less themodem disconnects before it recognizes the carrier. Range: Default: tenths of a second 14 (1.4 seconds) S11 DTMF Tone Duration Sets the duration of tones in DTMF dialing (US models only). This value has no effect on pulse dialing. Range: Default: milliseconds 95 (95 milliseconds) S12 Escape Code Guard Time Defines the maximum period, in fiftieths of a second, allowed between consecutive asynchronous escape characters (+) the escape sequence to be considered valid.

22 SWITZERLAND U.K FULL RANGE 4 - TESTING The modem provides testing features to identify fault location when transmission quality is not good: local analog loop back, local analog loopback with self-test. These tests are initiated with the &Tn command described in Chapter Local Analog Loopback(&T1) The local analog loopback test checks the integrity of the local computer or terminal and the local modem. During the test, the local modem internally loops data sent from the local computer or terminal back to the same computer or terminal as shown in Figure 4-1. During the test, data is not transmitted to the remote modem. If characters are looped correctly during this test, both the modem and the local computer or terminal are functioning correctly. If incorrect characters appear on the screen, either the local computer or terminal or the local modem is in error. If a connection exists when the &T1 command is issued, the modem will hang up before test is initiated. Example 1 - Test timer disabled Command: AT&T1 <CR> Result: cursor shifts down one line and the CONNECT XXXX message is displayed. Test message: THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG (or any other character you type) Escape: Result code: Command: (return to the on-line command state) OK AT&T0 <CR> (end the test)

23 Result code: OK Here, the test timer is disabled and the modem sets up an internal analog loop as shown in Figure 4-1. When the loopback is established, the modem goes on-line and the test message (any character you type) is looped back on the screen for verification. Finally, +++ returns the modem to the command state and &T0 ends the test and breaks the internal analog loop. 5 - TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE This chapter describes common problems in the installation, configuration and regular usage of your Fax/Data Modem. To test the Fax/Data Modem, a communication software package is needed and the package must include a mode that allows you to operate your Fax/Data Modem by directly issuing internal commands to the modem. Follow the procedures in the following sections to resolve these common problems: No Response From Your Modem 1. If you are using the internal add-on card modems, make sure that the COM port address you have set your modem to corresponds to the appropriate selection in the communications software which you are using. 2. Issue the ATZ command to reset your modem. The returned result code should be "0" or "OK" depending on what communications program you are using. Your modem is OK if you get one of these responses. If there is no response after issuing the ATZ<CR>, continue to the next step. 3. Check if there are any other interface cards in your computer that use the same COM port address as your modem. If so, you must set your modem to another COM port address. (Keep in mind that on most systems, only two COM ports are available. One of them must be used as either 1 or 3, while the other must be used as 2 or 4.) For example, if a mouse is set to COM1, your modem should be set to COM2 or COM4. Continue to the next step if the COM port address is OK. 4. Issue the command: AT&F&W <CR>, if a "0" or "OK" result code is displayed on the screen, your modem is OK. Otherwise, contact your dealer for assistance. Your Modem Does Not Dial Out Make sure that your modem responds normally as described in section 4.1. If you can communicate through the keyboard, check whether the modem is properly connected to the phone line. Your Modem Does Not Connect After It Has Dialed a Phone Number The problem may have several causes. The phone line may be too noisy or the telephone cord may be poor. Try the line with a regular phone. Also, the remote modem may not recognize your modem's baud rate. You Can't Transmit After You Have Connected to the Remote Modem

24 In this case, check the communication parameters of the remote modem, then configure your software to the same number of data bits, stop bit, and parity. Finding the Source of Transmission Errors A failure in modem communication is usually characterized by unacceptably high error rates or a total inability to communicate; it may be the fault of the local computer or terminal, the local modem, the telephone line, the remote modem or terminal. Initialize the Modem In case your modem does not work properly, please issue the following command string to initialize the modem and try again: AT&F&W&W1&Y If you have any further questions or problems, please contact your dealer. 6 - APPLICATIONS EXAMPLE 6.1 Dialing a Remote Modem Command line: ATDP9WT002, (886) <CR> This command line instruct the modem to dial a remote modem through a PBX. The modem first use pulse dialing to dial 9 (the access code of the PBX), wait for outside dial tone, and then use touch tone dialing to dial 002 once a one-second continuous dial tone is detected within 30 seconds, pause for 2 seconds (if S8=2) and then dial Dial a Stored Number Command line: AT&Z2=T03,709394<CR> Command line: ATDS=2<CR> The first command line store the dial string T03, to the 3rd location in NVRAM. Afterwards you can use the second command line to dial this stored number. The dial string T03, will appear on the screen to indicate the number being dialed. 6.3 Manual Answer an Incoming Call Command line: ATA <CR> The factory setting of the S-register S0 is S0=0. This condition disables the auto answer capability so that you must issue an ATA command to answer a call. At power up, your modem always monitors if there are incoming rings. If incoming rings are detected, your modem will display result codes on the screen as : RING :

25 : RING Seeing that, you may issue the ATA command to answer the call. This command must be entered within the quiet interval between any two rings. 6.4 Auto Answer an Incoming Call Command line: AT S0=2 &W &Y <CR> Auto answer can be enabled by changing the setting of the S-register S0 to a value between 1 and 255. In the above command line, S0=2 instructs the modem to answer an incoming call automatically after the 2nd ring. The &W command writes this configuration to profile 0 in NVRAM. &Y command instruct the modem to load profile 0 as the active configuration on power-up. The last two commands make S0=2 the default value at power-up or reset. This example also shows the insertion of space between two neighboring commands to make the command line more readable. 6.5 Voice to Data Switching Command line: ATA <CR> or ATX1D <CR> If you are talking with a remote modem user through the telephone set and want to initiate data communication with the remote modem, follow the procedures below: 1. You or the remote user issue an ATA command first to switch to data communication. 2. When the person on the other end hears an answer tone from the phone, issues an ATX1D command (X1 to disable the dial tone monitor) to instruct the modem to go off-hook and wait for a carrier. If connection is successful, the CONNECT XXXX result code will be displayed on the screen. Now you can hang up your phone and begin data communication with the remote modem.
