Modem preferences

The Modem Preferences screen enables you to define the settings for a modem that is directly connected to your handheld. These settings are for applications that activate and use the modem.

Note: You can purchase a Springboard modem for use with your handheld. See http://www.handspring.com.

To define the Modem preferences:

1. Tap TouchTone or Rotary.

Note: Select the Rotary setting only if you are certain that your telephone service does not support TouchTone dialing.

2.Tap the Speed pick list and select the maximum speed for your modem.

Note: This is the speed at which your modem communicates with your handheld, not the speed at which your modem communicates with your telephone service.

3.Tap the Speaker pick list and select the speaker volume that you want for the modem.

4.Tap the Flow Ctl (Flow Control) pick list and select either Automatic, On (Xon), or Off (Xoff) flow control for the modem connection.

5.If necessary, edit the String text to change the modem setup string.
