56K External Modem
Quick Start

This Quick Start describes installation for personal computers using
Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000, and NT 4.0. Your external modem also works
with almost any computer or terminal with a serial (RS-232) port, including
most Windows 3.x, Macintosh, and Linux computers. You should consult
your full-length modem manual if you have one of these other systems. The
full-length manual is located on the CD.

Please make sure you have the following items: modem, telephone cord,
power supply, and installation and communications software on diskette(s)
or CD-ROM. In some countries, you may also need a country-specific
telephone adapter to attach your modem to the telephone wall jack.
Depending on your modem model, your package may or may not include a
faxmodem-to-computer serial cable. If it doesn’t, make sure that you have a
serial cable that mates with the connector on your particular computer.

Windows NT 4.0 Users: You need to install your faxmodem hardware
before running your setup software. Skip to Connecting the Faxmodem
below.

Windows 95/98/Me/2000 Users: You need to run your setup software
before installing your modem hardware. Continue below.
Insert the enclosed CD in your computer’s CD-ROM drive and wait for it to
auto-run.

If the CD does not auto-run: Right-click on My Computer and then
click on Explore. In the left panel click on the CD icon of the drive
that has your modem CD in it. In the right panel, double-click on
Setup or Setup.exe.

When the main interface appears, click on Install Drivers. When the
Install Drivers screen appears, select the modem type you are installing.
Click Next. Follow the prompts. Click Finish.
Leave the CD in the drive, exit any running programs, and shut down your
computer. Continue below.
