Class 1 Fax/Modem

Connecting Class 1 to Your PC

The 2002 uses a standard RS-232C port to communicate with the PC. A serial cable comes with the 2002 unit. Follow the instructions in “Attaching the Peripheral Cables” on page 2-4 to connect the cable if you have not already connected it.

Please Note: This feature is optional on your unit.

Installing the PC-Fax Software

There are a number of settings that affect the modem. This table provides a list of common settings and the preferred Lanier settings.
