MultiModemDSVD User Guide
1 Introduction
In t r o d u ct io n
Congratulations on your purchase of your MultiModemDSVD! You have acquired
not only one of the finest intelligent data, fax, and voice modems available, but a
modem that can transmit voice and data at the same time. This user guide will help
you to install, configure, test, and use your modem.
Pr o d u ct De s cr ip t io n
The MultiModemDSVD modem incorporates both the ITU-T V.90 and the K56flex™
protocols, both of which enable Internet connections at data rates up to 53K bps*
over standard telephone lines. Using these protocols, Internet service providers
(ISPs) are able to send data downstream to your computer at high speeds because
data on the telephone network normally is converted from digital to analog only once
before it reaches your modem. Upstream transmissions, and transmissions between
client modems, are limited to data rates of 33.6K bps, as are downstream transmis-
sions that are converted more than once on the telephone network.
The MultiModemDSVD offers interactive automatic dialing and command mode
configuration. You can store up to four command line/ telephone numbers of up to
40 characters each in the modem’s nonvolatile memory. The modem pulse or tone
dials, and recognizes dial tones and busy signals for reliable call-progress detection.
The modem can also detect AT&T calling card tones. It is FCC-Registered for con-
nection to telephone networks without notification to the telephone company.
Digital simultaneous voice and data (DSVD) operation allows data transfer and
voice conversation to occur simultaneously during a data connection. On a DSVD
call, a headset or microphone and speaker can be used as the voice interface. Both
local and remote modems must have compatible DSVD technology to support the
DSVD function. The MultiModemDSVD is compatible with the industry-standard
ITU-T V.70 DSVD specification.
Fe a t u r e s
General
• Complies with major ITU-T, TIA, and EIA international standards to ensure com-
patibility with other modems.
• Distinguishes data, fax, or voice calls using DTMF and tone detection with soft-
ware packages supporting these features.
• Supports serial port speeds to 230.4K bps with compatible serial ports
• On U.S. products, includes Caller ID to identify your caller’s phone number.
*Though this modem is capable of 56K bps download performance, line impairments, public
telephone infrastructure, and other external technological factors currently prevent maxi-
mum 56K bps connections.

Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Industry Canada, and other
government agencies may impose certain restrictions on equipment connected to
public telephone systems. For more information, see Appendix A.
Phone Connection
For voice-only calls, you can optionally plug a telephone into the modem’s PHONE
jack.
Microphone Connection (MT5600DSDV only)
Plug the microphone plug of the supplied headset into the MIC jack on the side of
the modem. Optionally, plug an unamplified microphone into the MIC jack. The mi-
crophone should have a 1/ 8-inch mini plug.
Speaker Connection (MT5600DSDV only)
Plug the speaker plug of the supplied headset into the SPKR jack on the side of the
modem. Optionally, use a 1/ 8-inch-plug male-to-male stereo patch cord to connect
the SPKR jack on the side of the modem to the LINE IN jack on your sound card.
If you do not have a sound card, you can plug an amplified speaker directly into the
SPKR jack.
Power Connection
Plug the power supply module into an AC power outlet or power strip. Plug the
power supply’s cable into the PWR jack on the modem.
Note: Use only the power supply supplied with the modem. Use of any other power
supply will void the warranty and could damage the modem.
Power-On Test
Test the modem by turning it on (a power switch is located on the right side). When
you apply power, the modem performs a diagnostic self-test, indicated by several
indicators flashing for a second or two, after which the 56 indicator should light. If
this does not happen, check that the power switch is on, the power supply is solidly
connected, and the AC outlet is live. If these measures do not work, see Chapter 6,
“Solving Problems.”
Surge Protectors and Lightning
Because of power surges and other transient voltages on power and telephone lines,
we recommend that you plug the modem into a surge protector rather than directly
into a wall outlet, preferably a surge protector that provides protection against elec-
trical spikes on the telephone line as well as on the power line. Please note, however,
that not even a surge protector can guard against damage from a nearby lightning
strike.

St e p 4 : In s t a ll t h e M o d e m Dr ive r
If you use Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000, you must
install the modem driver, which is installed using the Windows Plug and Play feature.
Follow the four-step procedure below. The modem driver is used by Windows to con-
trol the modem.
Installing the Modem Driver
1. Make sure your modem is connected properly, and then turn on your computer.
Windows should detect your new modem and open the Install New Modem
wizard.
Note: If Windows cannot find a modem, your modem may not have power, it
may be plugged into the wrong connector on your computer, or the serial cable
may be faulty. See “None of the LEDs Light When the Modem Is Turned On” and
“The Modem Does Not Respond to Commands” in Chapter 5, “Solving Problems.”
2. Insert the MultiModemDSVD system CD into your CD-ROM drive, and then
click OK.
3. Windows installs and configures the modem.
4. Click Finish to exit.
For Windows NT, the Install New Modem wizard presents one additional prompt
before Step 2. At this point, select Don’t detect my modem; I will select it from a
list, and then click Next. A dialog box with a list of manufacturers and a list of
modem models appears. Select your modem. Continue with Step 2 above.
Removing Your Old Modem Driver
When your new modem replaces another modem, the old modem driver remains in
Windows after you install the new modem, and the old modem is still selected in
HyperTerminal and other Windows applications. Though you can change the appli-
cation connection descriptions one at a time, it is easier to force Windows applications
to use the new modem by removing the old modem from Windows.
1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click the Modems icon to open the Modems Properties dialog box.
3. In the list box, select the old modem.
4. Click Remove, and then click Close.
5. The next time you dial a HyperTerminal connection, it will select your new mo-
dem and ask you to confirm the selection.

St e p 5: In s t a ll Ph o n e To o ls So ft w a r e
Multi-Tech includes PhoneTools communications software with your modem.
However, the modem will work with most data communications software. To install
PhoneTools, insert the MultiModemDSVD system CD into your CD-ROM drive;
click the PhoneTools icon. You will be asked to choose your language. The software
will then automatically load onto your PC.
Communication programs designed for Windows 98/ Me and Windows NT/ 2000
normally do not need to be manually configured, since they use the Plug and Play
configuration supplied by the Windows modem driver. Though each
communication program is different, the following procedure should work with most
of them.

3 Operation
In t r o d u ct io n
Like any modem, your MultiModemDSVD operates only under the control of a
communication program, such as the one included with the modem. It also operates
under other general-purpose data communication programs, such as Windows
Terminal and HyperTerminal. For information on how to use the modem with the
communication program of your choice, please refer to the program’s
documentation.
Unlike other modems, with the MultiModemDSVD you can also simultaneously
send voice and data over a single phone line or, using third-party white-board
software, work on a document with someone at another location.
Fr o n t Pa n e l
Figure 3-1. Front panel
The MultiModemDSVD has ten LED indicators on the front panel that indicate
status, configuration, and activity:
TD Transmit Data. The TD LED flashes when the modem is transmitting data to
another modem. The state of the LED matches the TD circuit on pin 2 of the
RS-232C/ V.24 interface.
Receive Data. The RD LED flashes when the modem is receiving data from
another modem. The state of the LED matches that of the RD circuit on pin 3 of
the RS-232C/ V.24 interface.
RD
CD
56
Carrier Detect. The CD LED lights when the modem detects a valid carrier
signal from another modem. It is on when the modem is communicating with
the other modem and off when the link is broken.
56K Mode (56,000–28,000 bps). The 56 LED lights whenever the modem
nects to an ISP server in K56flex or V.90 mode. The actual connection speed
depends on server capabilities and line conditions.
con
33 V.34 Mode (33,600–16,800 bps). The 33 LED lights whenever the modem
nects in V.34 mode.
con
V.32bis Mode (14,400 bps–). The 14 LED lights whenever the modem connects
14
in V.32bis mode.
Note: Although the modem can connect at lower than V.32bis speeds, no speed
indicator lights during the connection.

3 Operation
OH Off-Hook. The OH LED lights when the modem is off-hook, which occurs
when the modem is dialing, online, or answering a call. The LED flashes when
the modem pulse-dials.
Terminal Ready. The TR LED lights when a datacomm program initializes the
modem. It means the modem is ready for an outgoing or incoming call. It goes
off when the datacomm program disconnects the COM port. When it goes off, a
connected modem will disconnect. The state of the TR LED matches that of the
DTR circuit on pin 20 of the RS-232C/ V.24 interface.
TR
Error Correction (V.42). The EC LED lights continuously when the modem is in
V.42 error correction mode, and blinks when compression is activated.
EC
FX
Fax. The FX LED lights when the modem is in fax mode.
Note: When you turn on the modem, the speed lights flash briefly as the modem
does a self-test, then the LED for the default modem baud rate lights. The default
rate for the modem is 56K bps. After a call, the LEDs for the connection’s baud rate
remain lit until another call is made or the modem is reset. If you connect at a rate
under 14,400 bps, all speed LEDs remain off after the connection is broken, even
though the modem is still turned on.
Co n f ig u r in g t h e M o d e m
Your modem normally is configured either through Windows or through the
communication program you are using. The default settings work best for most
purposes. See “Step 5: Install and Configure Your Software” in Chapter 2 for help in
setting up your communication program.
You can also configure your modem directly by typing AT commands in the
terminal window of a communication program. See Chapter 4 for descriptions of the
modem’s AT commands.
Co n n ec t in g t o t h e In t e r n e t
Your Multi-Tech modem is your gateway to the Internet and the World Wide Web.
To access the Internet and Web via your modem, you must establish a dial-up
account with an Internet service provider (ISP). To locate an ISP near you, look in a
local directory or computer publication. Your ISP should provide you with the
following information:
• User name (also called user ID)
• Password
• Access number (the number you call to connect to the server)
• Host name and/ or domain name
• Domain Name Server (DNS) server address
If, besides the Web, you use the Internet for e-mail and newsgroups, your ISP should
also provide you with the following information:
• E-mail or POP mail address
• POP server address
• Mail or SMTP address
• News or NNT server address

Using the PhoneTools program included with your modem, you can use your modem to
send and receive faxes directly from your computer. The following procedure uses print
capture, which enables you to fax a document directly from the Windows applica-
tion in which you created it without opening PhoneTools.
1. Create a document in a Windows application, such as a word processor, graphic
editor, or spreadsheet. To fax the document, keep the application and the docu-
ment open and select the Print command from the File menu.
2. Select CAPTURE FAX BVRP as the printer driver, and then click OK. The Send
Fax wizard appears.
3. In the Recipient section, type the required information or extract it from the
Phone Book by clicking
.
4. In the Template section, optionally select a cover page and type a cover message.
5. Select the document to be sent. The default file when sending from within a Win-
dows application is Capture.dgr.
6. Select the date and time to send the document, if you do not want to send it
immediately.
7. Click Finish to start the transmission.

Operation in DSVD mode allows data transfer and voice conversation to occur si-
multaneously during a data connection. On a DSVD call, a headset or microphone
and speaker can be used as the voice interface. Both local and remote modems must
have compatible DSVD technology to support the DSVD function. DSVD can be
used by running a communications application that supports DSVD. Follow the ap-
plication instructions. DSVD can also be controlled manually issuing AT commands
to the modem as described in the following sections.
To Originate a Voice Call in Speakerphone Mode
1. In the terminal window of your communications application, type AT and press
ENTER. The modem will respond with OK.
2. Type AT&F and press ENTER to reset the modem to its default configuration.
3. Type AT#CLS=8#VRN=0#VLS=6 and press ENTER to initialize the modem for
speakerphone mode.
4. To dial, type ATDTnnnnnnn and press ENTER, where nnnnnnn is the phone num-
ber of a remote party. The modem will report VCON at the completion of dialing
to indicate the speakerphone is on.
5. To hang up, type +++ATH and press ENTER.

speaking into the microphone
6. To hang up, type +++ATH and press ENTER.
Note: If DSVD is enabled, the modems will not connect if the V.34 connect rate is
below 12000 bps. The voice link is not maintained in data mode, so if +++ is
typed and the user goes back to data mode, a simulated busy is played to both
modems to tell the users to place their handsets on hook. If you get an ERROR
message when dialing or answering a call, check to make sure the lines are not in
the wrong jacks. A DSVD data connection is terminated by dropping DTR (if en-
abled by &D2) or by issuing +++ATH.

4 AT Commands, S-Registers, and Result Codes
AT Co m m a n d s
AT commands are used to control the operation of your modem. They are so called
because each command must be preceded by the characters AT to get the ATtention
of the modem.
AT commands can be issued only when the modem is in command mode or online
command mode. The modem is in command mode whenever it is not connected to
another modem. The modem is in data mode whenever it is connected to another mo-
dem and ready to exchange data. Online command mode is a temporary state in which
you can issue commands to the modem while connected to another modem. To put
the modem into online command mode from data mode, you must issue an escape
sequence (+++) followed immediately by the AT characters and the command, e.g.,
+++ATH to hang up the modem. To return to data mode from online command
mode, you must issue the command ATO.
To send AT commands to the modem you must use a communications program,
such as the HyperTerminal applet in Windows 95 and NT 4.0, or the Trio communi-
cations program included with your modem. You can issue commands to the mo-
dem either directly, by typing them in the terminal window of the communications
program, or indirectly, by configuring the operating system or communications pro-
gram to send the commands automatically. Fortunately, communications programs
make daily operation of modems effortless by hiding the commands from the user.
Most users, therefore, need to use AT commands only when reconfiguring the mo-
dem, e.g., to turn autoanswer on or off.
The format for entering an AT command is ATXn, where X is the command and n is
the value for the command, sometimes called the command parameter. The value is
always a number. If the value is zero, you can omit it from the command; thus,
AT&W is equivalent to AT&W0. Most commands have a default value, which is the
value that is set at the factory. The default values are shown in the “AT Command
Summary,” which begins on the next page.
You must press ENTER to send the command to the modem. Any time the modem
receives a command, it sends a response known as a result code. The most common
result codes are OK, ERROR, and the CONNECT messages that the modem sends to
the computer when it is connecting to another modem. For a table of valid result
codes, see “Result Codes” at the end of this chapter.
You can issue several commands in one line, in what is called a command string. The
command string begins with AT and ends when you press ENTER. Spaces to sepa-
rate the commands are optional; they are ignored by the command interpreter. The
most familiar command string is the initialization string, which is used to configure
the modem when it is turned on or reset, or when your communications software
calls another modem.

sequence &M0\ N0 selects normal buffered mode, but the
command sequence \ N0&M0 selects direct mode. This is be-
cause the \ N0 command is analogous to the &Q6 command.

Description:
This command is an extension of the &M command, and is used
to control which connection modes are permitted. It is used in
conjunction with S36 and S48. (See also the \ N command.)
&Q0 Selects direct asynchronous operation. See &M0.
&Q5 The modem will try to negotiate an error-corrected link. The
modem can be configured using S36 to determine whether a
failure will result in the modem disconnecting or falling back
to a non-error-correction connection. See also \ N3.
&Q6 Selects asynchronous operation with speed buffering and no
error correction. Same as \ N0.

Description:
The modem can perform selected test and diagnostic functions.
A test can be run only when the modem is in asynchronous
operation in non-error-correction mode (normal or direct mode).
For tests 3, 6, and 7, a connection between the two modems
must first be established. To terminate a test in progress, the
escape sequence (+++) must be entered first, except for param-
eters 7 and 8. If S18 is non-zero, a test terminates automatically
after the time specified by S18 and displays the OK message.
&T0 Abort. Stop any test in progress.
&T1 Start local analog loopback, V.54 Loop 3. If a connection exists
when this command is issued, the modem hangs up. The CON-
NECT XXXX message is displayed upon the start of the test.

used to ensure that data in the modem buff-
er is sent before the modem disconnects. If
S38 is set to a value between 0 and 254, the
modem waits for the remote modem to ac-

5 Solving Problems
In t r o d u ct io n
Your modem was thoroughly tested at the factory before it was shipped. If you are
unable to make a successful connection, or if you experience data loss or garbled
characters during your connection, it is possible that the modem is defective. How-
ever, 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.
• The modem dials but is unable to make a connection.
• The modem disconnects while online.
• The modem cannot connect when answering.
• File transfer is slower than it should be.
• Data is being lost.
• There are garbage characters on the monitor.
• The modem doesn’t work with Caller ID.
• Fax and data software can’t run at the same time.
If you experience problems, please check the following possibilities before calling
Technical Support (see Appendix D).
No n e o f t h e In d ica t o r s Lig h t
When you turn on the modem, the LED indicators on the front panel should flash
briefly as the modem runs a self-test. If the LEDs remain off, the modem is probably
not receiving power.
✔ Make sure the modem’s power switch is on, especially if you normally turn on
the modem by turning on a power strip.
✔ If the power supply is plugged into a power strip, make sure the power strip is
plugged in and its power switch is on.
✔ Make sure the power supply module is firmly connected to the modem and to
the wall outlet or power strip.
✔ If the power strip is on and the modem switch is on, try moving the modem
power supply to another outlet on the power strip.
✔ Test that the outlet is live by plugging a lamp into it.
✔ The modem or power supply may be defective. If you have another Multi-Tech
modem, try swapping modems. If the problem goes away, the first modem or
power supply may be defective. Call Tech Support for assistance.
CAUTION: Do not under any circumstances replace the power supply module with
one designed for another product, as it can damage the modem and void your warranty.

✔ Make sure the modem is plugged in and turned on. (See “None of the Indicators
Light.”)
✔ Make sure you are issuing the modem commands from the data communications
software, either manually in terminal mode or automatically by configuring the
software. (You cannot send commands to the modem from the DOS prompt.)
✔ Make sure you are in terminal mode in your data communications program, then
type AT and press ENTER. If you get an OK response, your connections are good
and the problem likely is in the connection setup in your communications software.
✔ Try resetting your modem by turning it off and on. If you are using DOS or Win-
dows 3.1 communications software, make sure the initialization string includes
&F as the first command, to cancel any “leftover’ command that could affect the
modem’s operation.
✔ If you don’t get an OK, the problem may still be in the communications software.
Make sure you have done whatever is necessary in your software to make a port
connection. Not all communications programs connect to the COM port automat-
ically. Some connect when the software loads and remain connected until the
program terminates. Others can disconnect without exiting the program. The
modem’s TR indicator lights to show that the software has taken control of the
modem through the COM port.
✔ Your communications software settings may not match the physical port the modem
is connected to. The serial cable might be plugged into the wrong connector—check
your computer documentation to make sure. Or you might have selected a COM
port in your software other than the one the modem is physically connected to—
compare the settings in your software to the physical connection.
✔ If the modem is on, the cable is plugged into the correct port, the communica-
tions software is configured correctly, and you still don’t get an OK, the fault
might be in the serial cable. Make sure it is firmly connected at both ends.
✔ Is this the first time you have used the cable? If so, it may not be wired correctly.
Check the cable description on the packaging to make sure the cable is the right
one for your computer.
✔ Peripheral expansion cards, such as sound and game cards, might include a seri-
al port preconfigured as COM1 or COM2. The extra serial port, or the card itself,
may use the same COM port, memory address, or interrupt request (IRQ) as
your communications port. Be sure to disable any unused ports.
Windows 3.1x: To look for address or IRQ conflicts, in Program Manager select
File | Run, type MSD, and press ENTER. Then select Mouse, COM Ports, and
IRQ Status, and note the addresses and IRQs that are in use. If you find an IRQ
conflict, note which IRQs are not being used, then change one of the conflicting
devices to use one of the unused IRQs. If you find an address conflict, change the
address of one of the conflicting devices.
To change a port address or IRQ in Windows 3.1x, double-click the Control Panel
icon, then the Ports icon. Click on the port you want to change, click Settings,
click Advanced, and select the new port address and/ or interrupt. If you wish to
use COM3 or COM4, note that COM3 shares an IRQ with COM1, as does COM4
with COM2, so you should change their IRQs to unused ones, if possible.

Windows 9x: Right-click on My Computer, select Properties from the menu,
click on the Device Manager tab, double-click on Ports, then double-click on the
communication port your modem is connected to. In the port’s Properties sheet,
click on the Resources tab to see the port’s input/ output range and interrupt re-
quest. If another device is using the same address range or IRQ, it appears in the
Conflicting Device List. Uncheck Use automatic settings to change the port’s
settings so they do not conflict with the other device, or select the port the con-
flicting device is on and change it instead. If you need to open your computer to
change switches or jumpers on the conflicting device; refer to the device’s docu-
mentation.
Windows NT 4.0: To look for address or IRQ conflicts, click Start, Programs, Ad-
ministrative Tools (Common), and Windows NT Diagnostics. In the Windows
NT Diagnostics dialog box, click the Resources tab to see which input/ output
ranges and interrupt requests are in use. If you need to open your computer to
change switches or jumpers on the conflicting device; refer to the device’s docu-
mentation.
✔ The serial port might be defective. If you have another serial port, install the mo-
dem on it, change the COM port setting in your software, and try again.
✔ The modem might be defective. If you have another Multi-Tech modem, try swap-
ping modems. If the problem goes away, the first modem is possibly defective.
Call Tech Support for assistance (see Appendix D).
Th e M o d e m Dia ls Bu t Ca n n o t Co n n ec t
There can be several reasons the modem fails to make a connection. Possibilities include:
• lack of a physical connection to the telephone line.
• a wrong dial tone.
• a busy signal.
• a wrong number.
• no modem at the other end.
• a faulty modem, computer, or software at the other end.
• incompatibility between modems.
You can narrow the list of possibilities by using extended result codes. Extended re-
sult codes are enabled by default. If they have been disabled, include V1X4 in the
modem’s initialization string, or in terminal mode enter ATV1X4 and press ENTER.
When you dial again, the modem will report the call’s progress.
✔ If the modem reports NO DIALTONE, check that the modem’s telephone line
cable is connected to both the modem’s LINE jack (not the PHONE jack) and the
telephone wall jack. If the cable looks secure, try replacing it. If that doesn’t
work, the problem might be in your building’s telephone installation. To test the
building installation, plug a telephone into your modem’s telephone wall jack
and listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, your modem might be installed
behind a company phone system (PBX) with an internal dial tone that sounds
different from the normal dial tone. In that case, the modem might not recognize
the dial tone and might treat it as an error. Check your PBX manual to see if you
can change the internal dial tone; if you can’t, change your modem’s initialization
string to replace X4 with X3, which will cause the modem to ignore dial tones (note,
however, that X3 is not allowed in some countries, such as France and Spain).

✔ If the modem reports BUSY, the other number might be busy, in which case you
should try again later, or it might indicate that you have failed to add a 9, prefix
to the phone number if you must dial 9 for an outside line.
If you must dial 9 to get an outside line, the easiest way to dial it automatically is
to include it in the modem’s dial prefix, e.g., ATDT9,. Note the comma, which
inserts a pause before the number is dialed. By inserting 9, into the dial prefix,
you do not have to include it in each directory entry.
To change the dial prefix in Windows HyperTerminal, select Connect from the
Call menu, click Dialing Properties, and type 9 in the local and long distance
boxes in How I dial from this location.
✔ If the modem reports NO ANSWER, the other system has failed to go off-hook, or
you might have dialed a wrong number. Check the number.
✔ 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 per-
son 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. If you hear harsh
sounds, then another modem is answering the call, and the modems might be
having problems negotiating because of modem incompatibilities or line noise.
Try connecting at a lower speed.
Th e M o d e m Dis co n n ect s W h ile O n lin e
✔ If you have Call Waiting on the same phone line as your modem, it can interrupt
your connection when someone tries to call you. If you have Call Waiting, dis-
able it before each call. In most telephone areas in North America, you can
disable Call Waiting by preceding the telephone number with *70 (check with
your local telephone company).
You can automatically disable Call Waiting by including the disabling code in
the modem’s dial prefix (e.g., ATDT*70,—note the comma, which inserts a pause
before the number is dialed). To change the dial prefix in Windows Terminal, se-
lect Settings | Modem Commands. To change it in Windows HyperTerminal,
select Connect from the Call menu, click Dialing Properties, check This location
has Call Waiting, and select the correct code for your phone service.
✔ If you have extension phones on the same line as your modem, you or someone
else can interrupt the connection by picking up another phone. If this is a fre-
quent problem, disconnect the extension phones before using the modem, or
install another phone line especially for the modem.
✔ Check for loose connections between the modem and the computer, the tele-
phone jack, and AC power.
✔ You might have had a poor connection because of line conditions or the problem
might have originated on the other end of the line. Try again.
✔ If you were online with a BBS or an online service like CompuServe, it might
have hung up on you because of lack of activity on your part or because you ex-
ceeded your time limit for the day. Try again.

An s w e r in g
✔ Autoanswer might be disabled. Turn on autoanswer in your datacomm program
or send the command ATS0=1 (ATS0=2 if you have Caller ID service) to your
modem in terminal mode.
File Tr a n s fe r Is Slo w e r T h a n It Sh o u ld Be
✔ You might have an older UART. For best throughput, install a 16550AFN UART
or a Multi-Tech ISI serial port card. See the “Quick Start” chapter for information
on how to identify your UART.
✔ If you are running under Windows 3.1 and have a 16550AFN UART, you must
replace the Windows serial driver, COMM.DRV, to take full advantage of the
UART’s speed.
✔ If you are using a slow transfer protocol, such as Xmodem, try Zmodem or Ymo-
dem/ G instead.
✔ Is your line noisy? If there is static on your line, the modem has to resend many
blocks of data to insure accuracy. You must have a clean line for maximum
speed.
✔ Are you downloading a compressed file with MNP 5 hardware compression en-
abled? Since hardware data compression cannot compress a file already
compressed by an archiving program, the transfer can be marginally slower with
data compression enabled than with it disabled.
✔ Does your Internet service provider (ISP) use the same 56K protocol as your mo-
dem? The default setting of your modem is to connect using either the K56flex or
the V.90 protocol, depending on which one the ISP modem is using. If your ISP
uses the X2 protocol, the maximum speed you will be able to connect at is 33,600
bps. Check with your ISP to see which protocols it supports.
✔ Try entering the &V1 command to display information about the last connection,
making a screen print of the connection statistics, and checking for parameters
that might be unacceptable.
Da t a Is Be in g Lo s t
✔ If you are using data compression and a high speed serial port, set the serial port
baud rate to four times the data rate.
✔ Your UART might not be reliable at serial port speeds over 9600 bps or 19,200
bps. Turn off data compression, reset your serial port speed to a lower rate, or
replace your serial port with a faster one.
✔ Make sure the flow control method you selected in software matches the method
selected in the modem. If you are using the modem with a Macintosh, you might
have the wrong cable for hardware flow control.

5 Solving Problems
✔ If you are running under Windows 3.1 and have a 16550AFN UART, you might
need to turn on the 16550’s data buffers and/ or replace the Windows serial driv-
er, COMM.DRV.
✔ Try entering the &V1 command to display information about the last connection,
making a screen print of the connection statistics, and checking for parameters
that might be unacceptable.
Th e r e Ar e Ga r b a ge Ch a r a ct e r s o n t h e M o n it o r
✔ Your computer and the remote computer might be set to different word lengths,
stop bits, or parities. If you have connected at 8-N-1, try changing to 7-E-1, or
vice-versa, using your communications software.
✔ You might be experiencing line noise. Enable error correction, if it is disabled, or
hang up and call again; you might get a better connection the second time.
✔ At speeds above 2400 bps, the remote modem might not use the same transmis-
sion or error correction standards as your modem. Try connecting at a slower
speed or disabling error correction. (With no error correction, however, line noise
can cause garbage characters.)
✔ Try entering the &V1 command to display information about the last connection,
making a screen print of the connection statistics, and checking for parameters
that might be unacceptable.
Th e M o d e m Do e s n ’t Wo r k w it h Ca lle r 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 will not receive Caller ID information. Check your ini-
tialization 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.
Fa x a n d Da t a So ft w a r e Ca n ’t Ru n a t t h e Sa m e
Tim e
✔ Communications devices can be accessed by only one application at a time. Un-
der DOS or Windows 3.1x, you can run either your fax software or your
datacomm software, but not both at the same time, unless you have a special
communications device management application. In Windows 95, you can have
data and fax communication applications open at the same time, but they cannot
use the same modem at the same time.
