Learn About Manual Selection Of Incoming Calls - Nokia 3570 Connectivity Manual

Select the correct modem
Each fax application typically has a setup menu that can be used to alter the settings for your modem, as well as define how and
when calls are to be received (for example, immediately, on the third ring, etc.). This menu may also provide you with a list of
available modems that you can use when sending and receiving fax calls.
Use your fax program's settings menu to select your Nokia phone as the active fax modem.
Hardware setup
Use the modem properties dialog box of your fax software to confirm the following settings:
• Communications port - COMn (where n= the virtual COM port number assigned to the DKU-5 data cable)
• Initialization - 19200 bps
• Modem type - Class 2.0
• Flow control - Hardware
Note: You may need to add the following initialization string to your fax software, even though the program provides a
drop-down list or checkbox for setting the fax mode/class:
AT+FCLASS=2.0

• LEARN ABOUT MANUAL SELECTION OF INCOMING CALLS

You can receive digital data or fax calls with your PC using your Nokia phone the same way that you would using your existing
modem.
However, certain service providers require that you preset your phone to receive incoming data or fax calls, rather than having the
phone automatically detect the type of incoming call.
Note: Your service provider may have special requirements for inbound data and fax calls. Check with your service provider
to see if prearrangement of incoming data and/or fax calls is necessary.
Prearranged data and fax call settings in your data/fax software
Before you can successfully receive a digital data call or fax transmission in this situation, your phone must receive a special
command from your data or fax software. This command tells your phone that the next call it receives is a data call or fax
transmission.
Your data or fax programs should allow you to send additional commands to the modem when the program is launched or when the
fax software instructs the modem to receive a call. Use your software's modem configuration menu to send the following special
initialization string to the modem:
TO PRESET YOUR PHONE TO RECEIVE A DATA CALL:
AT+CSP=1
TO PRESET YOUR PHONE TO RECEIVE A FAX CALL:
AT+CSP=2
Configure your data and fax software
