Figure 2-5. Modem Initialization Setup

Other software programs require you enter an initialization string in the software modem setup screen. If this is the requirement in your software application, enter the following command string to initialize your modem: AT&F<cr>. This setting configures your modem to operate optimally with its software.

Hardware/Software Confirmation

To confirm that your modem (hardware) and communications package (software) are working properly:

1.Go into terminal mode in your communications package.

2.To determine if your computer and modem are communicating properly, Enter: AT<CR> At this point your video monitor should display OK. If the characters you typed do not appear or if double characters appear, see the troubleshooting section of this chapter.

3.To confirm how your modem is configured, enter AT&V<cr>. The current modem configuration is displayed as show below.

Example:
