About Data Communication Equipment
Communications Software
Setup
Before you can begin making and receiving data calls, you
must properly connect your DTE and DCE equipment, then
install a communications software or terminal emulation
package to establish communication to transfer
data.
Some data communications setup is performed
keyboard instructions which are provided in your modem or
data module documentation. You may also be required to
use your communications software or terminal emulation
package to perform certain setup commands for your DCE
equipment to work with your data station. Although each data
station's communication setup depends on configuration,
location, and specific equipment limitations and requirements,
the following list offers suggestions of the items to be
checked:
Verify or set the appropriate options on the DTE and
DCE, such as bit rate or parity. It is important to note
that even though your DCE equipment can operate at
2400 baud, your PC or terminal may not be able to
handle that speed.
Set flow control as appropriate for your equipment and
software.
