Modem
Ring Resume Function
With this function, if the telephone that is connected to the modem rings in the standby
mode, the power of the computer automatically switches on.
This function is convenient when using automatic information receiving applications
such as a FAX application when not at home or not in the office.
When using this function, it is necessary to run a software application able to main-
tain the condition to receive telephone calls and to return the computer to the origi-
nal condition after a call.
To use this function;
1 Windows 2000
In [Control Panel] - [System] - [Hardware] - [Device Manager] - [Modems], select
the modem you are using.
Windows XP
In [Control Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [System] - [Hardware] - [De-
vice Manager] - [Modems], select the modem you are using.
2 Select [Power Management] and add a check mark for [Allow this device to bring
the computer out of standby].
NOTE
This function does not work when the computer is off or is in hibernation
mode.
When using this function, it is recommended that the AC adaptor be con-
nected to the computer.
The computer cannot resume if a telephone is connected to the line of a mo-
dem (e.g., a PC Card modem) other than the internal modem.
Concerning the setting for [System standby]*, roughly consider the communi-
cation time and then set [System standby].
There may be cases where the computer enters the standby mode after the
time set for [System standby] elapses even during communications, and cuts
off the communications. If [Never] is set, the computer will not enter the standby
mode during communications, but once the computer resumes, the power of
the computer will remain on while the user is absent.

When the Ring Resume function is being used, some time elapses before a
connection is established (equal to the time for the computer to resume). To
allow the computer to resume, set the "call" (with the software application that
is able to maintain the condition to receive telephone calls) to a larger value
than a typical telephone call.
If it is not possible for the sending side to set a long "call", set the "number of
rings until answer" (with the software application that is able to maintain the
condition to receive telephone calls) to a small value.
