1. Connect your computer directly to the modem (follow the instruction
manual that came with the modem).
2. Begin executing any communication software which will allow direct
communications with the modem. Communication software is
included with most modems.
3. Set the modem's communication parameters to work with the Sampler.
A typical command string to send to the modem to configure it for use
is:
AT &F0 &C0 &D0 S0=1 &K0 &W0 &Y0
where:
AT Command prefix
&F0 Software reset; restore default parameters
&C0 Force DCD (Data Carrier Detect) "ON" at all times
&D0 Ignore DTR (Data Terminal Ready) from instrument
S0=1 Set auto answer to one ring
&K0 Disable local flow control
&W0 Store settings in profile "0"
&Y0 Use stored settings in profile "0" on power up.
Various commercial (especially older) modems may have different
commands for the functions listed above. Consult your modem's
instruction manual for the proper commands. Also, some modems
limit the length of the command string that may be sent. The
command string can be broken into two or more segments and sent
individually.
