MultiModemZPX User Guide

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the MultiModemZPX. You have acquired one
of the finest internal V.92 data/fax/voice modems available today from one of the
world’s oldest modem manufacturers: Multitech Systems, Inc. This user guide will
help you to install, configure, test, and use your modem.

Product Description

The MultiModemZPX is a full-featured internal data/fax/voice modem designed
for Pentium computers in Windows Plug and Play

TM

environments. Its half-length

card can be plugged into any available PCI slot.

The MultiModemZPX provides high-speed data transfer and fax capabilities for small
businesses, telecommuters, and SOHO users. Its compatibility with the new ITU-T V.92
protocol provides quick connections, downstream transmissions at speeds up to 56K
bps*, and upstream transmissions at speeds up to 48K bps when connected to V.92-
compatible Internet service providers. Transmissions between the MultiModemZPX
and other client modems are limited to 33.6K bps, as are upstream transmissions to
non-V.92-compatible ISPs and downstream transmissions that are converted more
than once on the telephone network.

The MultiModemZPX also supports “Super G3” ITU-T V.34 fax communications at
speeds up to 33.6K bps with Class 2.1 fax commands.

Modem features include Plug and Play operation, callback security, and remote
configuration. In standard mode, you can store up to four command lines or
telephone numbers of up to 40 characters each in the modems’ nonvolatile memory.
In callback security mode, you can store up to 30 passwords and dialing strings.
Other modem capabilities include voice operation using the included software,
AT&T calling card tone detection, pulse and tone dialing, adaptive answer, DTR
dialing, U.S. Caller ID reporting, two-wire leased-line operation, 11-bit operation,
V.42 error correction, and V.42bis and V.44 data compression.
