8 Verifying Proper Modem Installation
Verify that the SM56 software and hardware installation has completed correctly as follows.
Verifying SM56 Software Installation
1. Verify correct COM port selection.
You can check COM port installation through the Modems icon in the Control Panel or through the SM56 Control Panel application (see below). Normally, the SM56 will install on COM2, COM3, or COM4. Sometimes, however, depending on your computer system setup or Windows setup, the SM56 may install on COM5 (or higher). Although the modem functions correctly on any COM port, many software applications do not work if the modem is on a COM port number higher than 4. If the SM56 installs on COM5 (or higher), you can force it to a lower COM port via the SM56 Control Panel applet.
2. Run modem diagnostic from the SM56 Control Panel.
The SM56 software modem provides an informative Control Panel application that reports:
∙Modem status: in use/not in use; dialing; negotiating a connection; actual connect rate (updated in real time during a connection).
