Notes for use of this device in New Zealand ◆ The grant of a Telepermit for a device in no way indicates Telecom acceptance of responsibility for the correct operation of that device under all operating conditions. In particular the higher speeds at which this modem is capable of operating depend on a specific network implementation which is only one of many ways of delivering high quality voice telephony to customers. Failure to operate should not be reported as a fault to Telecom.
ATS11=90 (DTMF dialing on/off duration=90 ms) ATX2 (Dial tone detect, but not (U.S.A.) call progress detect) ◆ When used in the Auto Answer mode, the S0 register must be set with a value of 3 or 4. This ensures: (a) a person calling your modem will hear a short burst of ringing before the modem answers. This confirms that the call has been successfully switched through the network. (b) caller identification information (which occurs between the first and second ring cadences) is not destroyed.
General conditions As required by PTC 100, please ensure that this office is advised of any changes to the specifications of these products which might affect compliance with the relevant PTC Specifications. The grant of this Telepermit is specific to the above products with the marketing description as stated on the Telepermit label artwork. The Telepermit may not be assigned to other parties or other products without Telecom approval.

The ERROR result code appears in regions that do not require blacklisting.
Appendix D S-registers S-registers contain the settings that determine how a number of functions of the internal modem operate. For example, how many times to let the telephone ring before the modem answers and how long to wait before it hangs up if a connection fails. You can also customize certain AT commands such as the escape sequence and command line termination. The contents of the registers are changed automatically when you modify corresponding settings in your communication software.
User's Manual S0 Auto answer ring number This register determines the number of rings the modem will count before automatically answering a call. Enter 0 (zero) if you do not want the modem to automatically answer at all. When disabled, the modem can only answer with an ATA command.

GLOSSARY AccuPoint (Abbreviations continued) SO-DIMM: small-outline dual in-line memory module SVGA: super video graphics adapter SDRAM: synchronized dynamic random access memory TFT: thin-film transistor UART: universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter USB: Universal Serial Bus VESA: Video Electronic Standards Association VGA: video graphics array VRM: video ready modem VRT: voltage reduction technology A AccuPoint: A pointing device integrated into the TOSHIBA computer keyboard.
byte AUTOEXEC.BAT: A batch file that executes a series of MS-DOS commands and programs each time you start the computer. B backup: A duplicate copy of files kept as a spare in case the original is destroyed. batch file: A file that can be executed from the system prompt containing a sequence of operating system commands or executable files. See also AUTOEXEC.BAT. binary: The base two number system composed of zeros and ones (off or on), used by most digital computers.
GLOSSARY cache memory C cache memory: High speed memory which stores data that increases processor speed and data transfer rate. When the CPU reads data from main memory, it stores a copy of this data in cache memory. The next time the CPU needs that same data, it looks for it in the cache memory rather than the main memory, which saves time. The computer has two cache levels. Level one is incorporated into the processor and level two resides in external memory. CGA: Color/graphics adapter.
delete components: Elements or parts (of a system) which make up the whole (system). computer program: A set of instructions written for a computer that enable it to achieve a desired result. computer system: A combination of hardware, software, firmware, and peripheral components assembled to process data into useful information. configuration: The specific components in your system (such as the terminal, printer, and disk drives) and the settings that define how your system works.
GLOSSARY device driver device driver: A program that controls communication between a specific peripheral device and the computer. The CONFIG.SYS file contains device drivers that MS-DOS loads when you turn the computer on. driver: A software program, generally part of the operating system, that controls a specific piece of hardware (frequently a peripheral device such as a printer or mouse). dialog box: A window that accepts user input to make system settings or record other information.
host computer Extended Capability Port: An industry standard that provides a data buffer, switchable forward and reverse data transmission, and run length encoding (RLE) support. F fast infrared: An industry standard that enables cableless infrared serial data transfer at speeds of up to 4 Mbps. file: A collection of related information; a file can contain data, programs, or both. firmware: A set of instructions built into the hardware which controls and directs a microprocessor’s activities.
GLOSSARY hot dock/undock hot dock/undock: Connecting or disconnecting a device to or from the computer while the computer’s power is turned on. hotkey: The computer’s feature in which certain keys in combination with the extended function key, Fn, can be used to set system parameters, such as speaker volume. HW Setup: A TOSHIBA utility that lets you set the parameters for various hardware components. I icon: A small graphic image displayed on the screen or in the indicator panel.
modem kilobyte (KB): A unit of data storage equal to 1024 bytes. See also byte and megabit. L level 2 cache: See cache. MDA: Monochrome Display Adapter. A video display protocol defined by the IBM Monochrome Display Adapter and its associated circuitry for direct drive TTL displays that supports a monochrome 720x350 text mode. megabyte (MB): A unit of data storage equal to 1024 kilobytes. See also kilobyte. megahertz: A unit of wave frequency that equals 1 million cycles per second. See also hertz.
GLOSSARY monitor monitor: A device that uses rows and columns of pixels to display alphanumeric characters or graphic images. See CRT. motherboard: A name sometimes used to refer to the main printed circuit board in processing equipment. It usually contains integrated circuits that perform the processor’s basic functions and provides connectors for adding other boards that perform special functions. Sometimes called a main board.
RAM password: A unique string of characters used to identify a specific user. The computer provides various levels of password protection such as user, supervisor and eject. pel: The smallest area of the display that can be addressed by software. Equal in size to a pixel or group of pixels. See pixel. peripheral component interconnect: An industry standard 32-bit bus. peripheral device: An I/O device that is external to the central processor and/ or main memory such as a printer or a mouse.
GLOSSARY restart restart: Resetting a computer without turning it off (also called ‘warm boot’ or ‘soft reset’). To restart the computer, press Ctrl + Alt + Del while the computer is on. See also boot. RCA jack: A single-pin connector that carries composite video signals, which include both contrast and color information. See also S-video. RGB: Red, green, and blue.
write protection V synchronous: Having a constant time interval between successive bits, characters or events. volatile memory: Random access memory (RAM) that stores information as long as the computer is connected to a power source. system disk: A disk that has been formatted with an operating system. For MS-DOS the operating system is contained in two hidden files and the COMMAND.COM file. You can boot a computer using a system disk. Also called an operating system disk.
