Special considerations:
The communication with the hardware is handled via a
serial communications connection to your Macintosh.
As with all communication devices, extra care must be
taken both in connecting the device and using it. Here
are some points to remember:
1. The hardware serial connection must be connected
to either the MODEM or PRINTER port of your
Macintosh. If you connect to the printer port, you
must check the Use Printer Port option in the
control panel.
2. When using the remote control, you must be sure
that all other installed devices / protocols
(FaxModem software, AppleTalk, etc.) that use the
port you have selected are either disabled (via the
software supplied with the product) or switched to
the other port.
3. After use you should re-enable all devices that were
disabled in step 2 above.
PowerBook:
If you are using the Interactive Remote Control with a
PowerBook portable with no printer port, please
observe the following:
1. Be sure that AppleTalk is turned off before using
the Interactive Remote Control. If AppleTalk was on,
you may have to restart your PowerBook for the
changes to take affect.
2. If you have a built in modem, select the external
modem option in the PowerBook control panel
3. If you get an alert to the extent that you cannot turn
off the internal modem because it is in use, follow
these steps:
a) Go into the control panel of the control panel,
and make sure the software is turned off (the
LED on the main switch will be green)
b) Now you should be able to select the external
modem option in the PowerBook control panel.
c) Afterwards, you can simply turn ON the driver
via the control panel and you should not need
to restart.
