MTA128ST-USB
Removing Your Old Device from Windows 98/95
When your new MTA128ST-USB replaces another terminal adapter, the old installation
remains in Windows 98/95 after you install the new device, and the old device is still
selected in HyperTerminal and other Windows 98/95 applications. Although you can
change the application connection descriptions one at a time, it is easier to force
Windows applications to use the new device by removing the old modem from Windows.
1. Click Start | Settings | Control Panel.
2. Double-click the Modems icon to display the Modems Properties dialog box.
3. In the list box, select (highlight) the device to be deleted.
4. Click Remove and then click Close to remove the device from your system.
5. The next time you dial a HyperTerminal connection, it will select your new device and
ask you to confirm the selection.
Configuration
Run the ISDN MTA128ST-USB configuration utility for North American customized ISDN
settings.
Note: For Europe, run the configuration utility to customize the settings of the terminal adapter;
for example, to configure Multiple Subscriber Numbers (MSNs).
Configure the unit to match your ISDN service and the remote terminal adapter (TA) with
any of three methods listed below:
• ISDN MTA128ST-USB Configuration Utility
This configuration utility is recommended for computers running Windows 98/95
operating systems. Because it is a software-based utility, you can use it to create and
store as many configurations as you want.
• Windows 98/95 Dial-Up Networking
With Dial-Up Networking you can gain access to shared information on another
computer, even if your computer is not on a network. The computer you are dialing in
to must be set up as a network server for you to use its shared resources. Windows
98/95 includes a remote-node client called Dial-Up Networking (DUN). The
MTA128ST-USB can be used with this client for data communications.
• AT Commands
If you prefer using AT commands or want to fine tune the operation of your unit,
configure your unit by using AT commands and S-registers much as you would
configure an analog modem. Enter these commands in your data communication
program’s terminal mode. AT commands are described in detail in Chapter 4.
Whatever method you use to configure your MTA128ST-USB, consider your network and
call control configuration choices beforehand and record your choices. Refer to them
during the configuration procedure.
