Plug and Play Installation

This modem’s factory default setting is “Plug and Play” operation. If you
are using the Windows 95 environment, the COM port and IRQ will
automatically be set to Windows as the environment. Since your new
U.S. Robotics modem is a “Plug and Play” device, Windows 95 may be
able to detect your modem automatically after you plug it into your
computer. The operating system should do all the work of recognising the
modem for you.

How to Prepare for Plug and Play

Installation

1. Touch an unpainted metal part of your computer (the back is usually

unpainted) to discharge static electricity. Static can damage your
modem.

2. Take the modem out of its plastic bag.

5.3.

Find the jumper shunts (small black plastic pieces) on the COM

(serial) port and IRQ jumper pins on your modem. They should be in
roughly the area indicated in the following illustration.
