Configuring the Modem

The modem must be configured by the user before connecting to the UPS. In addition, the modem must be programmed with the Call Out telephone numbers in order to operate the Remote Notification option.

To configure the modem, connect the serial port of a standard PC computer to the modem through the serial cable. Run a terminal emulation program on the computer. Test the connection to the modem by typing [A], [T] and [ENTER].

The modem should respond with either “OK” or “0” (zero). If the modem does not respond, consult the modem manufacturer’s manual to confirm your setup. If the modem still does not respond, then seek technical assistance from your modem manufacturer.

After connection, perform “Basic Modem Configuration” and the remaining sections of this chapter.

Basic Modem Configuration

The modem should be a plug and play type. All setup is configured by the UPS. Only the initial phone number needs to be entered by the user.
