• &D2 instructs your modem to hang up when the data
terminal ready (DTR) signal drops. This will speed up the
hang-up process for most communications software
packages.
• &W0 stores this configuration as profile 0. Now whenever
you type ATZ <Enter>, you will restore this profile.
NOTE:
Since your modem will be using hardware flow
control, your communications software must
also be set for hardware flow control. In
addition, to take advantage of the possible 4:1
data compression provided by V.42bis, you
should set your communications package to
lock the DTE rate to the highest speed pos-
sible: up to 115200 bps.

Sample Configuration 2

If you are using software that does not support hardware flow
control, then you might use the following configuration: AT &F0
&C1 &D2 &K4 <Enter>.
This configuration is identical to that of the previous example,
except that &K4 is used to enable software flow control rather
than hardware flow control. Note that software flow control
must be used with caution. Do NOT use software flow control
when you are transferring files that might naturally contain
XON and XOFF characters, such as binary files. Also, do not use
software flow control when you are transferring files using
protocols like XMODEM or ZMODEM.
NOTE:
If your modem is configured to use software
flow control, then you must also set your
communications software to use software flow
control.
