             GUIDELINES FOR MODEM PREPARATION

NOTE:  Examples  are  given for MTEZ software,  but  the  general
approach  applies to other software. The macros given assume  you
have MTEZ xx/xx/xx or later, which already has macros  installed.
If you have an earlier version, see MACRO NOTES below.


YOUR MODEM HAS THE ABILITY TO ADJUST ITS IMPEDANCE TO MATCH  YOUR
LOCAL PHONE LINE.

     From  the MTEZ menu, enter 'terminal' mode. Type  AT\E1  and
press  the [enter] key. This tells your modem to adjust  to  your
phone line when you make your next V.32bis call. Make the V.32bis
call  immediately  after entering AT\E1. You may not  connect  on
the  first   try, as the modem will be  making  this  adjustment.
However  your modem will now be adjusted to the phone  line,  and
this  step will not have to be repeated unless you  change  phone
lines.


USING MACROS TO FORCE 2400 OR 9600 CONNECTIONS.

     When  calling a 2400 BPS modem, the <alt>-2 macro will  tell
the  modem  to connect at 2400 with no speed  negotiation.  Press
<alt>-2 and then use the MTEZ dialing directory to make the call.
     If you need to force a 9600 connection use the <alt>-1 macro
before making the call using your dialing directory.
     If you want to return the modem to the default, in which the
modem will negotiate speed, use the <alt>-3 macro.

IF THE OTHER MODEM DOES NOT HAVE ERROR CORRECTION CAPABILITY  YOU
MAY WANT TO DISABLE ERROR CORRECTION IN YOUR MODEM

     Press  <alt>-D  or select <D>ial to go to the  MTEZ  dialing
directory.  Press 'E' to edit your phone entry. Under 'type'  use
the  space  bar to toggle this type setting to 'NONE'.  Then  for
this  entry protocol  negotiation (MNP or V.42bis) will be  turned
off. Press <esc> to save.
     In  addition  you  may  use  <alt>-1  or  <alt>-2  to  force
connections after setting 'type' to 'none'.


MACRO  NOTES:  Macros may be assigned (if needed) or  changed  as
follows.

   From the MTEZ menu select <C>hange, then <M>acro.
   <alt>-1 macro is   ATS37=9N0!   (! is carriage  return  for  macro)
   <alt>-2 macro is   ATS37=6N0!
   <alt>-3 macro is   ATN1!

Be sure to use the 'S' to save, as MTEZ does not save the  macros
automatically. (the N0 is ZERO not letter 'O').
