What You May Need in Addition to the Kit
The Modem Integrator’s Kit should be sufficient fo r setting
up one modem on a bench for development and testing.
For GSP-1620 modem development purposes (bench setup
and developing modem applications), it is recommended that
you have a Windows PC, becaus e the Modem Integrator’s Kit
CD-ROM contains some Windows code sam ples.
If necessary, you can power the modem via the AC adapter on
the Diagnostic cable, but you may prefer to use your own DC
power supply. Mounting a bench modem and antenna is
optional, but would require M3 and M4 screws, respectively,
and a screwdriver.
OEMs who are packaging modems into end- user products will
need to supply mounting enclosures and customized cables.
For details, see Integrating GSP-1620 Modems into OEM
Products on page 7-1.
Configuration and setup of computer systems to use the
GSP-1620 modem with Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is
beyond the scope of this document. However, the
configuratio n procedures for th e QUALCOMM Globa lstar
GSP-1600 Tri-Mode Phone are included as a reference in the
QUALCOMM Globalstar Data User Guide, 80-99126-1
(located on the kit’s CD-ROM). For example, using the
procedures in that document, you can set up a Windows
modem driver and Windows Dial-Up Networking. With the
proper DNS addresses from your Service Provider (SP) or
Internet Service Provider (ISP), you can access the Internet
using your GSP-1620 modem via the Globalstar satellite
system.
