Garbage Characters on the Monitor

• Your computer and the remote computer may be set to different word
lengths, stop bits, or parities. If you have connected at 8-N-1, try
changing to 7-E-1, or vice-versa, using your communications software.
• You may be experiencing line noise. Enable error correction, if it is
disabled, or hang up and call again; you may get a better connection.
• At speeds above 2400 bps, the remote modem might not use the
same transmission or error correction standards as your modem. Try
connecting at a slower speed or disabling error correction. (With no
error correction, however, line noise can cause garbage characters.)
• Try entering the &V (View Parameters) command, making a screen
print of the diagnostics listing, and checking for parameters that may
be unacceptable.
