3 Intr oduction Thank you for purchasing the Action tec 56K ISA Advantage V .90 internal modem. The Advantage incorporates the latest technology in host-based V .90 modems. This new technology provides vast improvements in both the performance and the capa- bilities of personal computer fax/modems.
4 Do This First Please read the following tips before attempting to install your new modem. F or Windo ws 95 and Windo ws 98 Installations Be sure to remo ve all other modem drivers from your operating system. T o do this, right-click M y Computer , choose P roper ties from the menu that appears, then click on the Device Manager tab.
5 If you are going to use the T elephone Answering Machine ( T AM) functions of the modem and you are running Windows 95, you need to install a software component called U nimodem V . If you hav e Windo ws 95 OEM Service Release 2 (V ersion 4.00.950 B) or a later version of Windows, this component comes standar d as par t of the operating system.
6 T o disable COM2, boot your system and enter your BIOS setup. Y ou can normally invoke the BIOS setup menu by pressing a key or a combination of keys at the first boot up screen. Some of the common keys are DELETE, F1, F2, CTRL+AL T+S, CTRL+AL T+ESC.

8 Before installing the modem, you must enable ISA Plug-N-Play support within Win- dows NT . F irst set your system BIOS to “PnP OS” and then insert the Windows NT 4.0 CD-R OM into your systems CD-ROM D rive. The S tar tup window for Win- dows NT 4.
9 Hardw are Installation 1. T urn off the computer and all peripheral devices connected to it. 2. U nplug the computer power cord from the wall r eceptacle. 3. R emove the computer ’ s cover . Refer to your computer owner ’ s manual for instructions.
10 5. F irmly , but gently , insert the modem into the available 16-bit expansion slot. Ensure that the card is seated properly before securing it with the screw remo ved in S tep 4, as shown in the following diagram: Figure 6: Installing The Modem 6.
11 Connecting De vices T o The Modem Fig.7: Connecting Devices On the rear panel of your modem are input jacks to connect devices to the modem. As shown in the diagram, ther e are jacks for connection to a “ phone” and to a phone “line.” The connector labeled Line (T elco) is meant to be connected to a standard analog phone line.

30 Installing and Configuring Comm unications Software If your modem came with a communications software package, it is strongly recom- mended that you use this software for your modem. I t’ s default installation param- eters have been specially configured to work with this modem.
31 call is detected. The modem converts the digital information contained in the .wav file into an audio signal which is then sent ov er the phone line. The person calling hears your outgoing message and responds with an incoming message. The sequence of recording an incoming message is the reverse of an outgoing mes- sage.
32 T r oubleshooting This section lists some common problems and offers suggestions for a solution. I t is impor tant to remember that this modem is a Windows 95/98/NT based modem and requires 32bit virtual device drivers. I t therefore cannot work in Windows 3.
33 Device U sage box and make sure “Disable in this hardwar e profile” is not selected. (Windows 95 OEM SR2 and W indows 98 only). Make a note of the COM port and IR Q the modem is using. Errors reported in the Device S tatus box generally refer to conflicts.
34 If you receive an error message or the panel is blank, go to the section of this manual “Does N ot Install.” Step 4: Does Not Install The most likely reason for a non-installation in Windows 95 or 98 is a lack of IR Q resources. The modem needs one IRQ and one COM P or t in order to function.
35 M odems section after you have deleted it from the Device M anager . If it is, this could be a sign that your Plug-N-Play settings are not correct. See “Does N ot Install ” for information about Plug-N-Play .) 3. Close all open programs and return to the Windows desktop .
36 At the Advanced settings window , type the following in the “Containing text ” field: L T Win Modem . Click Find N ow . When a file is found, it will have the name “ oem#.inf.” Delete only an oem inf file. T o delete a file, highlight the file name by clicking once and then choose Delete from the File menu.
37 Common Prob lems No Dialtone Error Make sure y ou have connected the phone cable into the right connector on the back of the modem. See “F igure 7: Connecting Devices.” Y ou may have too many devices connected to the phone line. Remov e all other equip- ment.
38 when the modem is in use. This includes extension phones, answering machines, cordless phone bases, caller ID boxes and their cables. This reduces the load on your phone line and keeps signal attenuation to a minimum. Keep the length of your phone line cable to 10 feet or less.
39 Appendix A: A T Command Set A T Commands A T commands are issued to the modem to control the modem ’ s operation and soft- ware configuration. A T commands can only be entered while the modem is in com- mand mode. Enter A T commands by typing: ATXn where X is the A T command, and n is the specific value for that command.
