- NOTE: The "ATZ" PREINIT and INIT commands presume you have saved all other
- parameters to Profile 0. Otherwise, replace both commands with your
- current initialization string.
-
- (3) (a) Issue this command from the system prompt "DB SETUP <ENTER>"

-
-
- (4) Check and set the USR SW1 bats to 3, 5 and 8 DOWN, all others to UP

-
- (b) Select "Comm/modem setup" heading "CONFIG". Press <ENTER>
-
- (c) Change _ALL_ dial strings to include "+FCLASS=0" as follows;
-
- Ex. Was "ATD".... is now "AT+FCLASS=0D"
- Was "ATB1D... is now "AT+FCLASS=0B1D
-
- This _MUST_ be done as commands issued these headings _will_ over-

- to remain in FAX mode.
-
- (d) Press <ESCAPE>
-
- (6) (a) Select "Security miscellaneous", heading "ADVANCED". Press <ENTER>

-
- where: dr = drive
- po = modem's comm port (just the number 1, 2, 3 or 4)
- ! = this overrides a Fax machine thing (don't worry)
- Q = use QuickLink (.QFX) format
- /NF = put a notification of fax arrival on the screen
-
- The first directory address points to the executables, the second
- to where received faxes are stored.

-
- (b) Move the cursor to an unused Function Key and enter the following;
