Owner’s Manual

Operating Your MultiModemZPW-PCI

You control your MultiModemZPW-PCI by issuing AT commands and setting S-Registers. Right now your MultiModemZPW-PCI is set up for the most typical user application, that is, as a traditional modem set to make a dial-up call to a remote installation where the call is answered automatically; therefore, you shouldn’t need to change the current default configuration. (If however, you know that your application does not follow this profile, please refer to Chapter 3 for AT Commands and S-Registers.)

In operating your MultiModemZPW-PCI it is likely that you will use your data communications software to either:

enter “terminal” mode, where you can “speak most directly” to the modem by issuing AT commands, or to

launch a datacomm session through a set of modem configurations which you select and then associate with a target telephone number. Once you have created, saved, and named this set of information according to your connection needs and your datacomm software’s conventions, the software then simplifies your dialing because you needn’t reconfigure your modem, nor run the risk of mistakenly keying-in incorrect information.

Either way, you need to understand that an AT command is the method by which your modem is controlled, and must therefore prefix nearly all commands. AT stands for attention, and alerts the modem that a command follows. You may enter these commands with either upper- or lower-case characters. Once you’re in terminal mode, enter AT followed by <CR> to check whether your modem is operational. If everything’s fine, your modem will respond OK.
