• OTHER DATA APPLICATIONS

There are several other types of telecommunications applications that can be used with your Nokia phone and your computer. Some
of these include:
• Terminal Programs are used to connect to BBS services (bulletin board system) and mainframe or mini-mainframe
computers. Quarterdeck Procomm Plus, Microsoft Works (Communications Module), R-Link, and P-Term are just a few
examples of this type of program.
• Remote Administration are used to access your home or office computer remotely for file sharing or remote control.
Symantec PCAnywhere, McAfee Remote Desktop and Reach Out, Farallon's Timbuktu, Claris Apple Remote Access, and
Attachmate EXTRA! are a few examples of this type of program.
• On-line Services are used to access the Internet, or discussion and information forums within the service. On-line services
provide their own proprietary software interface for accessing their service. America Online, CompuServe, MSN (Microsoft
Network) and Prodigy are just a few on-line service providers that use their own proprietary software.

• CONFIGURE YOUR FAX SOFTWARE

Before you can use your phone to send and receive fax calls, you must configure your fax software so that it uses your phone as
the active modem (rather than your existing modem).
Many of the most popular fax programs should support multiple modems connected to a PC or laptop computer, including
Symantec WinFax Pro, Smith Micro Software HotFax (version 3.02 or newer), Castelle FaxPress, etc.
