Client Configuration: EMP Console supports all COM ports on the client system, along with any Windows NT/95 compatible modem.

Server Configuration: EMP Console requires the server's COM2 port to be connected to an external modem or directly connected to a serial cable.

Direct Connect Configuration: A null modem serial cable is needed. Connect one end of the cable to the COM2 port of server and the other to a port on the client machine.

Modem Configuration: On the client, EMP Console uses the Windows Application Program Interface (API) to determine if a modem is connected and available. The EMP Console does not configure the modem; it should be preconfigured through Windows.

For modem support, the server must use a Hayes compatible modem that supports a baud rate of 19.2k. The modem must be on the Windows 95 or NT Hardware Compatibility List provided by Microsoft. The server modem must be set in auto-answer mode for EMP Console to be able to connect to it.
