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.

13.5.1 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.

13.5.2 Configuring the Modem to Call a Remote Computer

To configure the modem to call a remote computer, perform the following

procedure:
NOTE: The brackets ([ ]) in the following steps indicate characters that require

keying in prior to pressing [ENTER].

1. Connect the modem to the PC through the serial port as described in the modem

manufacturer’s manual .

2. Key in [A], [T], then press [ENTER].

3. Confirm that the modem responds with “OK” or “0” (zero).

NOTE: In steps 4 through 7, the “xxxxxxx” is the phone number of a remote

computer. The phone number should include all local line and long

distance access numbers needed to dial out. This number is limited to 32

characters. For example, use “9” if needed for an outside line, “1” for long

distance + (Area Code) + Number or whatever access codes are needed to

dial the call directly. Add a “,” in the number anywhere that a delay is

needed. This will cause a two-second delay. More than one delay may be

added to the number; for example, enter “AT&Z0=T,9,,1 (Area Code) (Phone

Number)”.

4. To program a group one number, key in [A], [T], [&], [Z], [0] (zero), [=], [xxxxxxx],

then press [ENTER].

5. To program a group two number, key in [A], [T], [&], [Z], [1], [=], [xxxxxxx], then

press [ENTER].

6. To program a group three number, key in [A], [T], [&], [Z], [2], [=], [xxxxxxx], then

press [ENTER].
