Configuring the 7852-400 Modem

The 7852 Model 400 is one of the recommended modem choices for the Electronic
Service Agent. From the factory, there are DIP switches on the side of the modem
that need to be set to make the asynchronous mode the default mode. Switch 12
needs to be set to the off (down) position for asynchronous mode. Switch 11 needs
to be set to the on (up) position to enable AT Responses. If you want to enable the
auto-answer capability of the 7852-400 modem to perform remote dial-in to the NAS
Gateway 500, Switch 5 needs to be set to the on (up) position to enable
auto-answer. If your security requirements do not allow remote dial-in, switch 5
needs to be set to the off (down) position to disable auto-answer. See "IBM
