Modem Communication

Communication with the OCM-3 over an answer back telephone modem is relatively straight forward. For modem communication over conventional telephone lines, a maximum of 1200 or 2400 baud is recommended. Generally, a lower baud rate is more reliable on noisy lines. Modem should be self answering and data checking capability turn on.

The Milltronics Utilities software can be run via modem. In addition the Terminal Emulation program of the Utilities software package can be used to send control sequences directly to the modem.

The remote modem is defined as the modem connected to the OCM-3. The local modem is defined as the modem connected to the computer.
