HP StorageWorks SAN Director Installation Guide (A7393-90009, May 2007)

Setting up and installing modems180
Setting up a remote modem system
After the modems are connected, you can use a telco system to dial in to the modems and verify that
they answer and communicate as expected. If a dial-out modem facility is not available, you can
use a terminal emulation program on a computer workstation (or laptop) that has an attached
modem.
This procedure is only required if a dial-out modem facility is not already available for testing the
4/256 SAN Director modem connections.
To set up the optional remote modem:
1. Connect the remote modem to the workstation, as shown in Figure 40.
2. Disable any serial communication programs running on the workstation (such as a
synchronization program for a Personal Data Assistant (PDA).
