Step 8: Configure the Modem for Your Country

Before you use your modem, you must configure it for the country in which it will be used. You must also do this if you move the modem to another country after it has been configured for the first country. You can use one of two configuration methods: the Global Wizard utility or AT commands.

The Global Wizard Utility

The Global Wizard configuration utility is recommended for computers running Windows 98 or newer.

1.Insert the MultiModemZPX CD into the CD-ROM drive. The Autorun menu should appear.

2.Click Initial Setup and Country Selection.

3.In the Global Wizard dialog box, select either Run from CD or Install on your PC. Choose the former to configure your modem without installing the Global Wizard on your computer. Choose the latter to install the Global Wizard on you computer and Start menu.

4.Click Next. The Global Wizard searches for your modem and identifies it.

5.Click Next.

6.Select the country in which the modem will be used, and then click Next.

7.Review your choice of country. If it is correct, click Next to configure the modem.

8.When Global Wizard announces that the parameters have been set, click Finish to exit.

AT Commands

Non-Windows users can configure the modem using AT commands. You must enter these commands in your communication program’s terminal window.

There is a separate document of AT Commands provided for reference on the MultiModem system CD.

1.Run your favorite communication program, and open the program’s terminal window.

2.To configure the modem for a specific country, type AT%T19,0,nn, where nn is the country code in hexadecimal notation, and then press Enter.

3.To verify the change, type ATI9, and then press Enter. The country code is displayed in deci- mal format.
