1.1 Features

These Fax/Data Modems combine the features of a 56000(receive only)/33600/28800/14400/9600 bps
data modem and a 14400/9600 bps FAX modem. Your new Fax/Data Modem gives your personal
computer the ability to send and receive FAX messages over the telephone line like a standard FAX
machine. Your Fax/Data Modem also allows your PC to communicate with other personal computers,
terminals or BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) through the data modem functions.
When used as a data modem your Fax/Data Modem uses the standard AT command set and is fully
compatible with ITU-T V.42, V.42bis, V.34 (ANNEX 12), V.32bis, V.32, V.22bis, V.23, V.22, V.21,
MNP 2-5, Bell 103, 212A, V.90. When used as a Fax/Data Modem it communicates with all ITU-T
Group 3 FAX machines and is compatible with ITU-T V.27ter and V.29, V.17, T.4 and T.30.
Switching between DATA mode operation and FAX mode operation of your Fax/Data Modem is done
through its firmware, no hardware settings are required.
The communication software, which should be used, depends on the kind of machine that you are
going to communicate with. If you are going to call a FAX machine then you must use the Fax
software. If the machine that you are going to communicate with is a modem then you must use a data
modem communications software.
