DATA COMMUNICATION OPERATION
The Fax/Data Modem may be used to connect to an
1. | Data Bit | 8 | Data bit is the most common setting. |
|
| 7 | Data bit some for |
2. Stop Bit | 1 | Stop bit is widely use. | |
3. | Parity | There are three setting: ODD, EVEN or NONE depends on the system you are trying to connect. | |
4. | Baud Rate | The speed that the data traveling between the modem and your computer. The setting should be four times of your modem speed. For example: |
Modem Speed
Baud Rate selection
2400 bps
9600 bps
9600 bps
38,400 bps
14,400 bps
57,600 bps
28,800 bps
115,200 bps
5. Flow Control | Set the flow control between the computer and the modem can prevent data over run during transmission. There are two common ways of setting the flow control. |
| Software Flow control or XON/XOFF |
| Hardware Flow Control or CTS/RTS |
Most of the data communication software has the option for setting the above parameters. In order to let the modem communicate flawlessly, these settings must be identical between the two modems except Baud Rate and Flow Control.
