NOTE: When selecting the Com Type MicroWin 2000EX will show default settings on the
Setup COM Port form. In most cases these default settings will work.
Modem
This port will be used to connect MicroWin 2000EX through a telephone line to a
S1000EX with a modem.
NOTE To connect MicroWin 2000EX to a S1000EX, the S1000EX will need to be put in Data
Answer Mode. To enable it, type the command 0**581*. This will allow the dialer to answer as
a modem. Even with the Data Mode Enabled, a user can still make a Voice call-in to the
system. While in Data Mode, the dialer will first try to answer a call-in as a modem (i.e. the
S1000EX will output an answer carrier tone). If it wasn’t able to connect to a modem after about
10
seconds, it will assume that a person has called it and speak as if Data Mode was Disabled.

Baud Rate
This indicates the speed the Modem will call out at. The port always connects at 9600.
Time to Wait For Connect
When a callout is made, the modem picks up, dials the number and waits for an answer. This
setting is the amount of time to wait for this answer.
Some modems will time out and hangup if no connect is found after some period of time. If this
needs to be extended, see your modem manual for details.
Modem Strings
These options are here because not all modems act the same or are programmed the same. If
problems occur with a modem, entering the appropriate modem strings should fix these. The
following also show the defaults which will work for most modems.
The Init Strings are sent to the modem before an actual callout is made. Each command expects
an OK from the modem before continuing on.
