Windows directory prompt and then press
ENTER. Follow the on-screen instructions to
access the COM port settings panel. In this

in MSD with the serial rate listed in the chart
below. Select this serial rate (sometimes called
the "port rate") in any communications
software you use.

*All U.S. Robotics internal modems have a 16550
UART.
NOTE:
DO NOT select a 28,800,
14,400, or 12,000 bps serial port rate, if
offered. Your modem will NOT work
correctly with any of these settings. Fix

referred to as autobaud, select OFF).
