Chapter Four - QUICK START This chapter tells you how to dial and answer on a modem. If you use this modem with a PC, you probably don't need to worry about modem settings. The factory default may be just right for you. Connect the modem according to instructions in Chapter 3, install the communication software on the PC, make the modem dial as instructed in this chapter, and you're all set. This chapter also familiarizes you with the panel operation of the U-1496. This modem comes with a menu driven 20 x 2 LCD display. All functions of the modem are displayed and selectable from this menu. This chapter will also familiarize the user with the menu tree structure. It properly categorizes the modem operations. U-1496E and U-1496B modem users can also consult the U-1496's panel menu operations, but use the equivalent AT command listed in this chapter instead. LCD PANEL The U-1496's commands, options, and parameters can be set, changed, and viewed from the front panel or viewed and changed through AT commands by the computer or terminal connected to the modem. We will discuss panel operations in this chapter with reference to equivalent AT commands. Once powered up, the U-1496 goes into the Idle Screen (if not leased line selected). It then waits for commands from a PC/terminal or any key pad operation from the front panel. Refer to Fig. 3-4, there are four ON SCREEN BUTTONS: D Dialing menu. R Redial last number. O Originate mode on-line. A Answer mode on-line. Also, the status and current settings are displayed: Link Option V.32bis Link Speed 14400 bps Error Control V.42 (implied by V.42bis) Data Compression V.42bis Line Type Dial-up line Data Format Asynchronous DTE Speed 57600 bps PANEL OPERATION Four arrow keys manipulate the menu tree: Left/Right arrow keys used for horizontal item selection and
