Connecting the Faxmodem
1 | Make sure your computer is shut down. Locate the |
faxmodem’s serial number on the bottom of its case, just |
under the bar code, and make a note of it for future reference.
Depending on your modem model, your setup should look similar to one of the illustrations below.

2 | Connect the |
end of the cable into the matching connector on the back of | |
| your modem, and plug the other end of the cable into your |
| computer’s serial port. Some cables have an extra |
| connector; you should leave one unconnected. Tighten the |
| screws at both ends. Make a note of the COM port you plug |
| the modem into. |
3 | Connect the telephone cord. Plug one end of the cord into |
the phone line jack on the back of the faxmodem. Then |
plug the other end into the wall jack just as you would a standard telephone. Note: If you do not use the supplied telecommunications cord, use an equivalent of minimum AWG 26 line cord.
