Difficulties
with Your PC
Card

The PC Card fails to accept commands to dial or answer a call.
There may be an improper telephone line connection.

Check the following:

• Make sure the telephone adapter cord is attached to the RJ-11 port.

• Check that all devices are turned on.

There is interference on the telephone line that is connected to the PC

Card.

To resolve this difficulty:

If you are unsure of
which peripheral
device is causing the
conflict, you can
isolate the source of
the difficulty by
temporarily removing
all devices (except
your PC Card and
essential devices such
as the disk controller).
After that, add the
devices back one at a
time until the device
that is causing the
conflict is found.
