             GUIDELINES FOR MODEM PREPARATION

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

                          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.

                 V.32 / V.42bis Dialing Prefixes

     The  normal dial Prefix is ATDT. If the number  is  423-1563
then  it sends ATDT4231563 to the modem, which then  dials,   and
connects. This is using auto-speed (baud) negotiation as well  as
negotiating   Protocol (V.42bis, MNP etc.). Some  modems/software
you   will  call  do NOT like this.  Listed  are  alternate  dial
Prefixes you may use.

AT&Q5N1DT           :negotiates SPEED and Protocol (default) 1
AT&Q6N1DT           :negotiates SPEED only 1
AT&Q5S37=11N0DT     :*Connect 14400, negotiate Protocol 1 2
AT&Q6S37=11N0DT     :*Connect 14400 only 2
AT&Q5S37=9N0DT      :*Connect 9600, negotiate Protocol 1
AT&Q6S37=9N0DT      :*Connect 9600 only 1
AT&Q5S37=6N0DT      :Connect 2400, negotiate Protocol 1
AT&Q6S37=6N0DT      :Connect 2400 only 1
AT&Q5S37=5N0DT      :Connect 1200, negotiate Protocol 1
AT&Q6S37=5N0DT      :Connect 1200 only 1
AT&Q5S37=1N0DT      :Connect 300, negotiate Protocol 1
AT&Q6S37=1N0DT      :Connect 300 only 1
                     * for all V.32 modems
                     1-for error correcting modems
                     2-for V.32bis modems

              Connect result messages / modem speed

S95=44   gives  you full result messages with CONNECT  (modem  to
computer  speed).  If you need CONNECT (modem  to   modem)  speed
the  same as CARRIER (modem to modem) use S95=45. When running  a
BBS,  try  S95=3 and you will get only CONNECT(carrier)  message,
with \ARQ for error correcting  modems.  Always set your  'speed'
in your program to  the highest permissable computer - to - modem
speed (check your manual). The V.32xx or V.42bis modem will  take
care of modem to modem speed.
