Using the modem
Your notebook computer is equipped with an internal modem. Before using your
modem, please read the instructions in Configuring the Modem for use in your
Software Guide.
Connecting a phone line
You need to connect a phone line to take advantage of online services and the Internet,
to register your computer and software online, and to contact VAIO-Link.
1 Plug one end of the phone cable into the phone line jack on the computer.
2 Plug the other end into the wall jack. *
* A country-specific phone plug
is supplied with your
VAIO notebook, allowing you to
plug the phone line into the wall
jack.
Your computer cannot be
connected to a coin-operated
telephone, and may not work
with multiple phone lines or a
private branch exchange (PBX).
Some of these connections may
result in excess electrical current
and could cause a malfunction
in the internal modem.
Phone cable and connectors are
TNV (Telecommunications
Network Voltage), according to
EN60950.
Only DTMF (Dual Tone Multi
Frequency) signalling (tone
dialling) is supported.
