4.7 Installing and Using the External Modem (Continued)

Step 2: Connect and Configure the Modem

Use a shielded, null-modem serial cable, DB–25 male to DB–9 male, to connect the modem
to the CFR.

1

The most common ways to connect the cable are:

• A null-modem cable with DB–25 male to DB–-9 male ends (Figure 4.20).

• A null-modem cable with DB–25 male to DB–25 male ends and a 9–25 adapter.

• A standard straight-through cable with DB–9 male to DB–25 female and a null-

modem adapter.

2

Set the modem’s DIP switches as shown in Figure 4.21.

TIP: Do not enable auto answer with the DIP switches.
