If you intend to change any default settings you must comply with the following rules: t The modem must not answer an incoming call less than two seconds after the first ring signal. As a "rule-of-thumb" your modem should be set so it answers incoming calls after the second ring (ATS0=2). t If Busy signal detection is switched off, the modem must not attempt more than two automatic redials and must wait at least two seconds before redialling. t If Busy signal detection is switched on, the modem must not attempt more than nine automatic redials and must wait at least two seconds before redialling. t If, after redialling the maximum number of times, the modem is still unable to establish a connection you must wait 30 minutes before attempting to redial. t The use of Bell standard 103 and 212A is not permitted in Australia. Use of these modes will cause your modem to lose its permit status. Changing the default values of the modem, in such a way as to cause your modem to operate in a non-compliant manner when connected to a telecommunications network operated by a carrier, is contrary to the Telecommunications Act 1991 and may result in penalties of $12,000.

This is useful if you purchase the Telstra Duet service. With Telstra Duet, two phone numbers are shared for one telephone line. One is for voice and the second is for your modem. Distinctive Ring Commands AT-SDR=n, AT-SDR=0 AT-SDR=1 AT-SDR=2 AT-SDR=3 where n=0 to 7, default=0 Any ring detected and reported as "RING" Single ring detected and reported as "RING1" Double ring detected and reported as "RING2" Single and Double ring detected and reported as "RING1" or "RING2" To enable the modem to answer only when your modem number is dialled, issue the command AT-SDR=4S0=2 (this can be saved with AT&W). For most users, AT-SDR=4S0=2 will be suitable. Do not set Auto Answer for less than two rings when AT-SDR=4 AT-SDR=5 Triple ring detected and reported as "RING3" Single and Triple ring detected and reported as "RING1" or "RING3" Error Correction: V.42, MNP 2-4 Distinctive Ring is enabled. AT-SDR=6 Double and Triple ring detected and reported as "RING2" or "RING3" Data Compression: V.42bis, MNP 5 Encryption: Init String: DES 64-bit Cypher Feedback (Aust only) Super Secure A suggested general purpose Init String for most communications programs: AT&F#C0S7=60&K3 Some software may not be compatible with Distinctive Ring. Check with your software vendor for more information. AT-SDR=7 Any ring detected and reported as "RING1" or "RING2" or "RING3" Data Formats: Terminal Speeds: Flow Control: RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF and Transparent XON/XOFF Install the Modem Setting up your Modem WindowsTM 3.1x/DOS To use the Socket Rocket 336 with DOS and Windows 3.1x, Card and Socket Services drivers are needed. Some computers will have these drivers already configured or a disk will be provided with the computer. Once Card and Socket Services are loaded the modem can be used. The drivers will automatically assign a COM port for the modem to use. For more information on configuring the PCMCIA drivers, refer to your Card and Socket Services documentation. For more information on setting up your modem under Windows 3.1x/DOS refer to the 'Easy Installation and User Guide'. If your modem does not respond, contact your computer vendor or modem dealer. · Switch off your computer · Insert your Socket Rocket 336 into your computer with the label facing up (ensure the card is level upon insertion) Refer to the installation instructions in your computer's 'User Guide', or your modem's 'Easy Installation and User Guide'. If your computer has two PC Card slots, make note of which slot you install the modem into ("slot A or 0" or "slot B or 1"). Windows 95TM The Socket Rocket 336 is Plug and Play Windows 95TM compatible. When your modem is inserted into a computer using Windows 95TM, it will be recognised instantly. Windows 95TM will then configure the modem for use. · Ensure that the PCMCIA port has been enabled for use with Windows 95TM. · Insert the Modem into your computer. Windows 95TM will report New Hardware found. · Select "Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer" and click OK. · Insert disk provided with the modem labelled "Windows 95TM Driver disk" into floppy drive. · Click on the OK button.

If your modem does not respond, contact your computer vendor or modem dealer. MacintoshTM To use the Socket Rocket 336 with a Macintosh PCMCIA port, insert the card with the label up into either slot. Gently push the card into the slot until it is socketed firmly. When the card is firmly seated, an icon for the PC Card will appear on the desktop. For more information about the PC Card in the slot, click on the Socket Rocket 336 icon once, so that it is highlighted. Then open the "File" menu and choose "Get Info". This will show an overview of the card status. For additional help, see the 'Using PC Cards' topic in your 'Macintosh Guide'.

Special Note: Some phones can cause your modem to lose their connection if they are left plugged in parallel with your modem. To avoid losing connection, remove all phones from their sockets while you are online with your modem. WARNING Do not connect your modem to a telephone line or a PABX which outputs a digital signal. If you are unsure whether the line you wish to use outputs a digital signal, please check with your telephone service provider. CAUTION Your modem may become warm to touch after extended periods of use- please handle with care. YML261-3B ...
