5.3  Inverting Signal for V.54 Compatibility 
In FOM-40 a proprietary protocol inverts signal data relative to a regular V.54. 
The new version of FOM-40 allows you to reinvert the signal data, to ensure 
compatibility with V.54. 
Signal inversion is not available on older V.54 units. If one of your units, either local 
or remote, is an older version, do not invert the signal data on the newer unit, to 
ensure compatibility with the older unit. 
 
To invert the signal for V.54 compatibility: 
1.  Open the local FOM-40 and set switches SW6/1–2 to ON. Close the unit. 
2.  Open the remote FOM-40 and set switch SW6/1 to ON. Close the unit.
