Chapter 3. Installing an Analog Modem

Controlling an External Analog Modem

There are three options for enabling and disabling an external mo- dem: the Express Configuration Wizard, the WIN 95/NT 4.0 Tool Tray Icon, or a terminal emulation package. See the section Ex- press Configuration Tray Tool Menu on page 22 for more informa- tion on enabling and disabling a modem.

Once the external analog modem is enabled, all further COM ac- tivity is transmitted to the external analog modem connected to the Express XRT modem port. The external analog modem RTS and CTS lines are switched over to the PC COM port directly when the Express XRT is commanded to enable the external mo- dem port. This allows the external analog modem to provide flow control as normal.

When the external analog modem is disabled, all further COM port activity is processed by the ISDN terminal adapter within the Express XRT.

See the section Express Configuration Wizard Tray Tool on page 19 for more information on enabling a modem.
