Telephone Line

You must have a telephone line with jack (connector) that accepts the cable that comes with the modem. If you do not have a telephone jack near your computer, you should install one before proceeding.

In North America, do-it-yourself telephone extension kits and accesso- ries are available wherever telephones are sold. You may also hire an independent contractor or your local telephone company to install an extension. If you want a separate line for your fax modem, you must contact your telephone company.

Communications Software

To operate your modem, you must have data communications (data- comm) and fax communications software (included with the modem). Data communications software simplifies control of the modem by guid- ing you through the process of selecting your serial port, your port speed, and other variables, and then storing your settings, including frequently called phone numbers, so they can be recalled with the stroke of a key or the click of a mouse. Data communications software must be set up, or configured, before you can use it.
