1. If installing one RocketModem, set the DIP switch
as shown in this table.
2. If installing two RocketModem cards, follow Step 1
for the first card, then set the DIP switches on the
second card the same as the switches on the first
card, except Switch 5 off.
3. If installing three RocketModem cards, follow Steps
1 and 2 for the first and second card, then set the
DIP switches on the third card the same as the
switches on the first card, except Switch 6 off.
4. If installing four RocketModem cards, follow Steps 1
through 3 for the first, second, and third cards, then
set the DIP switches on the fourth card the same as
the switches on the first card, except Switches 5
and 6 off.

Port Identification

The modem ports on the RocketModem
mounting bracket are numbered as
shown in the illustration at right. The
port on the "top" edge of the card is
modem Line 1, and the port at the
"bottom" edge of the card, nearest the
bus connector, is Line 8.
A four-modem version of the
RocketModem card is also available. The
four-modem version uses the same
mounting bracket and connector block
as the eight-modem version, but Jacks 5
through 8 are blocked with blank plugs.
The four-modem model is not user-
upgradeable to an eight-modem model.

Using the Diagnostics

After you have installed one or more RocketModem
cards in your computer, use the diagnostic program
RCKTMDM.EXE to establish that the card is working,
before installing the device driver.
The diagnostic program is an operating system-
independent program that is distributed on a bootable
diskette. You must boot the system from the diagnostic
diskette in order to run the diagnostic program.
Follow these steps:
1. Insert the Diagnostics diskette in the floppy drive.
2. Power up the machine. The diagnostic program
starts automatically on boot-up.
If your computer cannot boot from a floppy, boot up
into native MS-DOS, then log on to the a: drive and
execute RCKTMDM.EXE.
The diagnostic title screen displays. Note the release
number and date. You may need this information if
you contact Comtrol technical support.
3. Press any key to continue.
A message about PCI-bus cards displays. If you have
one or more PCI-bus RocketModem cards installed,
the diagnostic recognizes them automatically and no
entry is needed.
4. Press any key to continue.
A list of ISA-bus RocketModem models displays.
5. Select the letter that corresponds to the model you
installed, select NOT INSTALLED if you have no
RocketModem/ISA cards in the system, or select X to
exit the diagnostic.
If you select an ISA-bus model, a list of valid I/O
addresses (A through K) displays:
a. Select the letter for the I/O address you used
when installing the card. A list of valid IRQ
interrupts displays.
b. Select the letter for the IRQ you used when
installing the card.
Note: Some drivers require an IRQ. If this is a new
installation, the correct entry will be I: NO
IRQ.
c.
The diagnostic program loops back to Step 5.
d. If you have more than one ISA RocketModem
installed, repeat this step until you have entered
the information for all cards. When you are
done, select NOT INSTALLED to exit this loop.
