Connecting the Modem

"NOTE:The built–in modem on the 6642 is designed only for regular analog telephone lines. The modem may be damaged when connected to a digital ISDN terminal or digital PBX.

"NOTE:Before connecting to a PBX, consult the PBX maintenance staff or its service company. If the electrical characteristics of your PBX are different from those of a regular analog line, the modem will not func- tion properly. If you connect the modem to a digital PBX, both the modem and the PBX may be damaged.

1.Turn off the 6642.

2.Lift the cover of the modem jack located near the LEDs and connect the end of the modem cable to the modem jack.

3.Connect the other end of the cable to the telephone line.

Setting Communications Software

2.Set parameters such as modem speed (baud rate) and line type (pulse or tone dialing).

"NOTE:Consult the manual or online help of the software you are using. Do not enter a suspend mode while using communication software. Exit other applications if you want to use fax communications.
