Section Four - Installing and Configuring Communication
Software
Install the communication software according to the software user's
manual. Be certain that your software is configured to communicate with
the modem on the same COM port and IRQ line used by the modem.
You may be prompted by the software to configure certain commu-

Baud Rate: 57,600 bps Data bits: 8
Parity: None Stop bit:1
Flow Control: RTS/CTS Initialization string: AT&F
The AT commands used by the modem are compatible with the
command set used by Intel modems. Select a Rockwell modem type if

or Rockwell modemtype when prompted by your FAX or Voice software.

are application driven and are accessed only through application soft-
ware. Consult your software manual regarding procedures on
using these features.
Many types of Voice software support recording and playback of
voice files. To recordor playback voice with your modem, attach a
telephone to the modem, or, optionally, attach a speaker and microphone
to your modem's SPKR and MIC connectors. Follow the instructions
provided with your Voice software to record and playback voice files.

Common modem functions (i.e.dialing, file transfer, faxing) are

modem

as dialing) via the AT commands. A list and description of all AT commands
appear in
Section Six.
Since the communication software is designed to
shield the user from the difficult and cumbersome AT commands, we
strongly suggest that all modem operations be performed via the software.
The communication software included with your modem provides a
