modem models listed in your software

applications modem list, you can select

SupraFAXModem 288(336) for fax emulation and

Zoom Telephonics Zoom V.34X for modem

emulation.

Installing the RocketModem

This RocketModem card features a DIP switch that is

used to set the I/O address. The factory default is 180

(hexadecimal).

You will need to change the DIP switch setting on the

card, if:

•

Existing peripherals in the system overlap or use

the default I/O value (180h).

•

Installing more than one RocketModem ISA. You

must change the DIP switch setting on the second

and subsequent cards.

To install a single RocketModem, follow these steps:

Note: For best results we recommend installing

RocketModem cards one at a time, to simplify the

configuration process.

1. Determine if you need to change the DIP switches

from the default value of 180h. To reset the DIP

switch, see the Setting I/O Address DIP Switches

section.

2. Turn your computer off and remove the system unit

cover.

3. Select an available ISA or EISA slot and remove the

slot cover. For EISA installation, see Installing a

RocketModem on an EISA Bus below.

Note: The RocketModem ISA requires a full-length ISA

or EISA slot.

5. Insert the RocketModem in the expansion slot.

Make sure it is seated securely.

6. Reinstall the expansion slot cover screw.

Note: When powered up, the RocketModem

generates significant heat. After you install

and configure the RocketModem, make sure

the system cover is closed and the ventilation

fan is unobstructed. If you install more than

one RocketModem, you may want to add an

additional internal cooling fan.

7. Connect standard RJ11 (telephone) cables between

the RocketModem ports and the phone line jacks.

8. Power up the computer and run the Diagnostics

program to verify that the RocketModem is installed

and working correctly. For instructions, see the

Using the Diagnostics discussion in this card.

9. After the RocketModem has successfully passed

diagnostics, install and configure the device driver

for your operating system, using the RocketModem

Software Installation and Configuration Guide or

the

file released with the driver.

After you have successfully installed one RocketModem,

you can install additional RocketModem cards by

repeating this process.

Installing a RocketModem on an EISA Bus

If you are installing a RocketModem in a computer with

an EISA bus, you may need to use the EISA

configuration files. These can be found in the \EISACFG

directory on the Diagnostic diskette. The

EISAREAD.TXT file contains information on using the

EISACFG files.

Setting I/O Address DIP Switches

This RocketModem (and the ISA-bus RocketPort series)

use I/O address ranges at 400h (hex) intervals above the

base I/O range. If you are mixing RocketModem and

RocketPort ISA cards, they are treated the same for the

purpose of setting the I/O switch.

The first card requires a 68-byte I/O address range.

Subsequent cards use a 64-byte range. Most peripherals

use I/O address ranges between 0 and 3FF hex. If you

have peripherals installed above 400h, you may

experience an I/O conflict and will need to reset the DIP

to an available address for your system.

The first card installed determines the switch settings

for subsequent cards. For example, if you are installing

two cards and using the default I/O address range, you

would set the DIP switches on the cards as follows:
