Installing In DOS and Windows 3.1x

Because Windows 3.1x is not Plug-N-Play operating systems, a non-Plug-N-Play installation is required. Manually select COM Port and IRQ settings you wish the modem to use by changing the jumpers on the modem card itself. (The jumper setting definitions can be found in the “Installing The Modem” section of this manual.) It is recommended that you disable an existing COM Port that you are not using and set the modems jumpers for COM 2 -IRQ 3.

To disable one of your computer’s existing COM Ports, enter your System BIOS Setup routine. (Refer to your computer’s user’s manual for instructions on how to access the BIOS Setup.) Once inside the BIOS Setup, look for a section called “Inte- grated Peripherals.” Locate the entry for COM 2 or COM port B and disable it. Save your settings before exiting. Install your modem and start Windows 3.1x.

If you have a separate I/O card, use the card’s jumpers to disable a COM Port. If you cannot disable an existing COM Port, use COM Ports 3 or 4 and select an interrupt that does not cause a conflict with another device.

Since you have manually selected the COM Port and IRQ settings using the jumpers on the modem card, manually assign the same IRQ and COM Port settings in Win- dows. In the Windows 3.1x Program Manager, double-click Main and then Control Panel. Double-click Ports. Select the COM Port your modem is using by clicking the icon. Click Settings, then click Advanced. Select “3F8” for COM 1, “2F8” for COM 2, “3E8” for COM 3, or “2E8” for COM 4, depending on which COM Port you selected your for your modem.

Next choose the appropriate IRQ for the COM port you have selected. If you have set your modem to COM 2, then you would set the IRQ to 3. If you had chosen COM 3, then you would have set the IRQ jumper on the modem to an available IRQ setting, one that did not interfere with another device. You will need to set the Windows IRQ setting to this same number. After you have configured Windows 3.1x, close Windows and reboot your system. Install your communications software. Your modem is now installed, configured, and ready to use.

Hardware and Driver Installation

To perform a non-Plug-N-Play installation in Windows 95 or 98 proceed with the following steps.

Step 1 Be sure to remove all other modem hardware and drivers. This should in- clude removing these devices in Device Manager, as well as removing all modems from the Modems control panel by selecting them and clicking

Remove.
