Using the Notebook PC

The built-in modem and network cannot be installed later as an upgrade. After pur-

chase, modem and/or network can be installed as an expansion card.

IMPORTANT! For electrical safety concerns, only use telephone cables rated

26AWG or higher. (see Glossary for more information)

When you are connected to an online service, do not place the Notebook PC in sus-

pend (or sleep mode) or else you will disconnect the modem connection.

Connections

Example of the Notebook PC connected to a tele-

phone jack for use with the built-in modem:

Modem Connection

The telephone wire used to connect the Notebook PC’s internal modem should have

either two or four wires (only two wires (telephone line #1) is used by the modem) and

should have an RJ-11 connector on both ends. Connect one end to the modem port and

the other end to an analog telephone wall socket (the ones found in residential buildings).

Once the driver is setup, the modem is ready to use.

WARNING! Only use analog telephone outlets. The built-in modem does not sup-

port the voltage used in digital phone systems. Do not connect the RJ-11 to digital

phone systems found in many commercial buildings or else damage will occur!
