Configuring Modems

After installing the hardware and VS-Link for Windows NT, use this
discussion to configure modem COM ports.

The RocketPort Serial Hub can support any asynchronous serial
modem for use by any application that uses TAPI. For information
regarding port pinouts and signals, see the Hardware Installation
Card
.

Working with NT RAS

Comtrol products are frequently used to provide Dial-Up Networking
access with NT RAS (Remote Access Service).

If RAS is not installed, note that you must install at least one RAS-
capable device (i.e., modem) before installing and configuring RAS.

If RAS is installed, note that the modem installation process
automatically launches RAS Setup after modem installation is
complete.

The following instructions were developed using Comtrol modem
products. If you are using another brand of modem, note that some
prompts and screen descriptions may differ from those shown.

Follow these steps:

Power up the modem.

2.
