Sportster Winmodem 33600 & x2/56K - User's manual 11
STEP 3: Installing the Communications Software
You’ll need communications software to get the modem working
— dialing numbers, downloading files, sending faxes, etc.
• If you’re asked to select your modem type from a
list, select a high speed Sportster or Courier Dual
Standard.
• If you cannot select a Sportster or Courier model
from the list, try:
1. Typing this “initialization string:” AT&F1
2. And then pressing the ENTER key.
• If you’re asked for a serial port (baud) rate, set
the rate for the highest option. (115.200 bps is a
good choice for most programs.) If you experience
trouble later (unusually slow transmissions, errors in
transmissions, etc.), reduce the rate. Do not choose
28.800 bps, 14.400 bps, or 12.000 bps, however.
Sportster Winmodem 33600 & x2/56K will not work
properly at these serial port rates.
• If you have to specify the COM port being used,
refer to the number you wrote on the first page of this
manual.
If you are asked to specify a flow control setting, choose
RTS/CTS for hardware flow control (highly recommended) or
XON/XOFF (the &F2 command) for software flow control.
Disable the type of flow control you are not using.
