For calls that are automatically generated, a total of three call attempts are allowed to a telephone number, with a minimum period between calls of 2 seconds. If the call does not connect after three attempts, 30 minutes must expire before automatic redialing may be initiated. Failure to set the modem (and any associated communications software) to the above settings may result in the modem being non-compliant with Australian telecommunications standards. Under these circumstances a user could be subject to significant penalties under the Telecommunications Act 1997.

Warning This card must be properly secured in order for you to use it. Telecommunications network voltages exist inside the computer and the telecommunications line connection must be removed before opening the computer.

Information You Need in New Zealand

This modem is fully approved to operate on the New Zealand telecommunications network under Telepermit number PTC 211/98/119. All telecommunications devices are required to hold a Telepermit and be labelled accordingly with the approved Telepermit number to comply with the New Zealand telecommunications standards, ensuring the health and safety of the operator and the integrity of the New Zealand telecommunications network.

Note: Customers in New Zealand who are prompted to choose a country for their modem should choose the “Australia” country code setting.

To ensure compliance, all calls that are automatically generated should not make more than 10 call attempts to the same number within any 30 minute period with a minimum period between calls of 30 seconds. Failure to adhere to these standards may result in the modem being non-compliant with New Zealand Telecom standards. Under these circumstances a user could be subject to significant penalties.

Important If pulse dialing is required for any reason, the communications software must be set up to record numbers according to the following translation list.

mNumber to be dialed: 0; number to be entered into computer: 0

mNumber to be dialed: 1; number to be entered into computer: 9

mNumber to be dialed: 2; number to be entered into computer: 8

mNumber to be dialed: 3; number to be entered into computer: 7

mNumber to be dialed: 4; number to be entered into computer: 6

mNumber to be dialed: 5; number to be entered into computer: 5

mNumber to be dialed: 6; number to be entered into computer: 4

mNumber to be dialed: 7; number to be entered into computer: 3

mNumber to be dialed: 8; number to be entered into computer: 2

mNumber to be dialed: 9; number to be entered into computer: 1

The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones as this is faster than pulse (decadic) dialing and is readily available on almost all New Zealand telephone exchanges.

G3 specifications

The Apple G3, introduced in 1997, marked a significant leap in Apple's computer technology and design philosophy. This series of Macintosh computers was powered by the PowerPC G3 processor, which had a clock speed ranging from 233 MHz to 750 MHz, depending on the model. The G3 chip was notable for its advanced features, including a 32 KB L1 cache and the ability to support a more complex 256 KB L2 cache. This allowed the machines to execute instructions more efficiently than their predecessors, enhancing overall performance for various computing tasks.

One of the defining characteristics of the Apple G3 line was its innovative design, which combined form and function. The desktop models featured a sleek, curving case, famously known as the "Blue and White" G3, while the all-in-one iMac G3 showcased vibrant colors and an iconic translucent design that became a hallmark of Apple devices.

The Apple G3 was notable for its extensive use of USB ports, which was a relatively new technology at the time. This foresight helped pave the way for the adoption of USB peripherals, allowing users to connect a wide range of devices, from printers to scanners, with ease. Additionally, the G3 series also provided options for expansion via PCI slots, giving users the flexibility to upgrade their systems.

In terms of graphics, the G3 models were equipped with accelerators like the ATI Rage or the NVIDIA Riva TNT, providing improved visual performance for both professional applications and gaming. This was complemented by Apple's decision to support higher screen resolutions and better color depth, enhancing the multimedia experience.

Moreover, the Apple G3 introduced the Mac OS 8 operating system, which brought improved multitasking capabilities and a more streamlined user interface. This allowed users to experience a more intuitive and productive computing environment.

Overall, the Apple G3 line represented a critical evolution in Macintosh technology. It combined powerful processing, innovative design, and new technologies that set the stage for future developments in the Apple ecosystem. The G3 series not only solidified Apple’s presence in the computing market but also laid the foundation for the modern computing experience that would follow in the ensuing years.
