Setting Up Your Modem

 Aladdin makes intelligent use of the modem interface lines and
 requires that the DCD, DTR, CTS and DSR interface signals
 reflect the true status of the modem and/or cause the modem to take
 specific actions.  Many communications programs do not care
 about the status of these lines, but Aladdin does care, so you
 may need to reset some of the defaults in your modem to get
 Aladdin to work.

 If Aladdin will not dial the modem, and displays an "On" status
 indicator on the rightmost field of the bottom line of your
 display, indicating that it thinks that your modem is on-line and
 that it is currently connected to a remote computer, your modem
 lines are set wrong and need to be reset as follows.

 For a Hayes Smartmodem 1200 or clone that uses switches to
 control these lines, use the following settings:

 Switch  Setting    Comment
 ------   ------    ----------------------------------
   S1       up      Support DTR
   S2       up      Verbal Result Codes
   S3      down     Result Codes are Sent
   S4       up      Echoes characters in command state
   S6       up      Carrier Detect Line Reads Status

 If you have a Hayes Smartmodem 2400 or clone that uses the AT&
 command set to control these lines, enter the following command
 string from terminal mode:

                 AT&C1&D2&R1&S1&T5&W

 This will set normal operation for the DCD, DTR, CTS and DSR
 lines, disable remote loopback testing to increase reliability,
 and then write these settings to non-volatile memory as the
 default.  (Not all modems support the &R1, &S1 and &T5 commands.
 The &C1, &D2 and &W commands are the most important ones.)

 Please refer to your modem owner's manual for more information
 about these configuration switch settings or commands.
