Chapter 2 – Installing the Modem Configuring the Country Where Modem is Used 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 in which you are using it.

With password protected remote configuration, you can issue AT commands to a remote MultiModem product for maintenance or troubleshooting as if you were on site. This chapter also describes how to change default passwords and characters to enhance the security of the product.
Chapter 5 – Troubleshooting Your modem was tested before it was shipped to you. If you can’t make a successful connection, or if you experience data loss or garbled characters during your connection, it is possible that the modem is defective. However, it is more likely that the source of your problem lies elsewhere. The following symptoms are typical of problems you might encounter: ● None of the LEDs light when the modem is on. ● The modem does not respond to commands.
Chapter 5 – Troubleshooting The Modem Doesn’t Work with Caller ID ● Caller ID information is transmitted between the first and second rings, so if autoanswer is turned off (S0=0) or if the modem is set to answer after only one ring (S0=1), the modem does not receive Caller ID information. Check your initialization string, and if necessary change it to set the modem to answer after the second ring (S0=2). ● Make sure that you have Caller ID service from your telephone company.
Chapter 5 – Troubleshooting ● If the modem reports NO CARRIER, the phone was answered at the other end, but no connection was made. You might have dialed a wrong number, and a person answered instead of a computer, or you might have dialed the correct number, but the other computer or software was turned off or faulty. Check the number and try again, or try calling another system to make sure your modem is working. Also, try calling the number on your telephone.
