Configuring the Modem

The modem must be programmed with the Call Out telephone numbers in order to

operate the Remote Notification option.
To configure the modem, connect the serial port of a standard PC computer to

the modem through the serial cable. Run a terminal emulation program on the

computer. Test the connection to the modem by typing [A], [T] and [ENTER].

The modem should respond with either “OK” or “0” (zero). If the modem does not

respond, consult the modem manufacturer’s manual to confirm your setup. If the

modem still does not respond, then seek technical assistance from your modem

manufacturer.
After connection, perform “Basic Modem Configuration” and the remaining

sections of this chapter.

14.5.1 Basic Modem Configuration

The basic modem should be a plug and play type. All setup is done by the UPS.

Only the initial phone number needs to be entered by the user.
