MultiModemII User Guide

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the MultiModemII modem. You have acquired one of the finest intelligent data/fax modems available today from one of the world’s oldest modem manufacturers: Multitech Systems, Inc. This user guide will help you install, configure, test and use your modem.

Product Description

The MultiModemII MT5600BA and MT5600BL modems incorporate new modem technologies called K56flexand V.90, both of which enable Internet connections at data rates up to 53K bps* over standard telephone lines. These protocols are able to send data downstream to your computer at high speeds by taking advantage of the fact that 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 transmissions that are converted more than once on the telephone network.

Both models support two-wire leased line operation. The MT5600BL model also supports four-wire leased line operation with dial backup and automatic leased line restoral. Please note that, because leased line operation consists of two client mo- dems connected to each other, the maximum leased line data rate is 33.6K bps.

The MultiModemII offers interactive automatic dialing. You can store four command lines or telephone numbers of up to 30 characters each in the modem’s nonvolatile memory. The modem pulse- or tone-dials, and recognizes dial tones and busy sig- nals for reliable call-progress detection. It can also detect AT&T calling card tones. It is FCC-registered for connection to telephone networks without notification to the telephone company.

The MultiModemII front panel includes a liquid crystal display and four buttons that together can be used to display the current connection status of the modem or to configure the modem. The MultiModemII also can be configured through stan- dard AT commands.

Features

*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.
