See the installation and configuration instructions supplied with the DLR-3 cable for more information.

Before you can use your phone to send and receive data or faxes, you must reconfigure your fax or data software so that it uses your phone rather than your existing modem. You may consider creating a separate set of dialing properties to use when your phone is connected, rather than changing any existing settings. Please refer to the documentation or online help files for your data or fax application when creating new dialing configurations, or modifying existing settings.

Getting started
Make sure your phone is connected to your computer via
the optional DLR-3 Data Cable and your computer
recognizes the new hardware.
See the installation and configuration instructions
supplied with the DLR-3 cable for more information.
Configuring your data or fax software
Once properly connected and configured, your PC will
recognize your phone as an external fax/modem. However,
your fax or data software may already be configured to use
the existing PCMCIA or internal modem.
Before you can use your phone to send and receive data
or faxes, you must reconfigure your fax or data software
so that it uses your phone rather than your existing
modem. You may consider creating a separate set of
dialing properties to use when your phone is connected,
rather than changing any existing settings.
Please refer to the documentation or online help files for
your data or fax application when creating new dialing
configurations, or modifying existing settings.
To start a data or fax call
Note: The restrict calls feature may affect any data/fax
calls you attempt. If you experience problems,
check your call restrictions. See page 66 for details.
1.
Initiate a data or fax call using your data or fax
software configured for your phone.
2.

Note:
Avoid terminating a call by pressing your phone’s
key. This may cause your data or fax application
