4Run a serial communication port program such as Hyperterminal.

5Within the communication program, select the port to which the modem is connected.

6Configure the port to these settings:

baud rate = 9600 data bits = 8 parity = none stop bits = 1

flow control = none

7In the program’s terminal window, type in the letters “AT” followed by the enter key. The modem should give an OK response.
