Using the built-in modem features The built-in modem enables you to send or receive data, faxes, and voice over the telephone line. This modem uses a digital signal processor (DSP), and its software can be upgraded, allowing great flexibility. It supports ITU-T V.90 protocols with data rates of 56 Kbps, and K56flex protocol with data rates of 56 Kbps. You can use the built-in modem only on a public-switched telephone network (PSTN). You cannot use a private branch exchange (PBX) or some other type of digital telephone extension line. If you connect the built-in modem to a line other than PSTN, an error message appears, preventing you from using the line. If you are not sure which kind of phone line you are using, contact your telephone company. Attention for use overseas In many regions, you cannot use the built-in modem function until IBM has received approval from the proper authorities. Your built-in modem is a worldwide modem and can be used in any region where Postal Telegraph and Telephone (PTT) type approval has been obtained. You can change the modem setting according to the region where you use the modem. If the region you want is not on the Region Selection listing, see http://www.ibm.com/thinkpad on the Internet, and download the newest Region Selection list. If you are a non-U.S. user, the parameter for using the modem is set automatically during the modem installation. The "Modem Region Selection" window enables you to change the region name to that of the region in which you are actually going to use the built-in modem telephony function. Confirm whether the selection matches the region name in the Dialing Properties listing. For more information on the use of the built-in modem in a specific region, contact the IBM customer support center in that region. Chapter 2. Using the features of your computer 11
