PTSN (for Public Telephone Switched Network). The service processor expects to use the modem on the public network, so the telephone line should attach to the PTSN connector.

If No, continue with step 3.

3.Does your modem respond to the extended command set (prefixed with &)? If Yes, go to step 5.

OR

If No, continue with step 4.

4.Does your modem respond to:

vATZ reset command,

OR

vATZn reset commands, where n can be 0, 1, and so on?

If ATZ, configuration file modem_z.cfg is recommended. If ATZn, configuration file modem_z0.cfg is recommended.

Go to step 7.

5.Does your modem command set include a test for V.42 error correction at the remote modem (often called ªAuto-Reliable Modeº)?

If Yes, disable this test. You can use sample configuration files

/usr/share/modem_m0.cfg

OR

/usr/share/modem_m1.cfg as models to help you create a file for your particular modem. See ªCustomizing the Modem Configuration Filesº on page 173. Go to step 7.

If No, go to step 6.

6.Does your modem respond to:

vAT&F reset command,

OR

vAT&Fn reset commands, where n can be 0, 1, and so on.? If AT&F, configuration file modem_f.cfg is recommended.

If AT&Fn, configuration file modem_f0.cfg or modem_f1.cfg is recommended, depending on which provides the hardware flow control profile.

7.You have completed selection of the configuration file.

If your modem configuration selection is not available in the Service Processor Modem Configuration Menu, you must access it through the Configure Remote Maintenance Policy Service Aid.

If you find it necessary to adjust any of these configuration files, do so with reference to the manual that came with your modem. It is recommended you select settings that enable hardware flow control and respond to DTR.

Note: Some older modems do not respond to the commands X0 or &R1. You should edit out these commands from the modem configuration file if yours is such a modem. See your modem manual for more information.
