Windows 95/98/Me/2000 or later

Turn your computer back on. Windows will detect your new faxmodem and
drivers and add the drivers to its database. If you are using Windows 2000
or Me, you may see a dialog box entitled Digital Signature Not Found;
you can safely ignore this screen and click Yes.

Note: If the Plug and Play setup does not proceed properly, consult your

full-length user’s manual.

Now you need to verify the faxmodem’s COM port setting. This last
operation also tests your faxmodem by querying it with AT commands. The
steps for Windows 95/98 and 2000/Me vary slightly, as shown below.

Modems. Fill in the Location Information screen if it appears.
Click on the entry for your new modem and click Properties.

2

Set the Maximum speed to the highest speed available (probably
115,200). Note: Do not check Only connect at this speed. Click
OK.

Click on the Diagnostics tab. Highlight the port next to the entry
for your new faxmodem and click on More info.
