Firmware Patch Version F1-05-72 for USB Mini Modem
This Firmware Patch is only for the following modem models:
• Zoom V.92 USB Mini External, Model 3095
• Hayes Accura V.92 USB Mini External, Model H08-15356
How to Apply the Firmware Patch
This Firmware Patch is a 2-file process. These files must be loaded using a terminal emulation program
that can communicate with modems/serial ports and transfer ASCII or text files. The port settings in the
program must be configured to a baud rate (port speed) between 9600 and 115200 bps and hardware
flow control (RTS/CTS) enabled.
Below are steps for loading the firmware files using HyperTerminal, which is included with Windows 95
through XP. These instructions assume you have installed the modem using the Zoom or Hayes drivers,
depending on which modem model you have. Refer to the modem’s Quick Start or User Guide if
necessary. The driver installation automatically configures the port settings.
Windows Vista users will need to use a third-party terminal emulation program, such as the freeware
TeraTerm Pro Web by Ayera Technologies (http://www.ayera.com).
