Operating manual Pocket ISDN-TA Using the POCKET ISDN-TA with Application Software To use the POCKET ISDN-TA with different application software and access points you have to look for the following items: • Usually you need a contract with the service provider. They can help you to get an appropriate application program to run on a PC.
Using the POCKET ISDN-TA with Application Software Configuration for AOL/CompuServe You need a contract with AOL/CompuServe to access the AOL/CompuServe network via ISDN. To configure the POCKET ISDN-TA you need the following information from AOL/CompuServe: • ISDN access number • Layer two protocol, usually the protocol-type X.75 by selecting Modem POCKET ISDN-TA X.75.
Operating manual Pocket ISDN-TA Configuring the POCKET ISDN-TA The settings of the POCKET ISDN-TA for the V.24 interface and the S interface are called configuration. The POCKET ISDN-TA is delivered with a set of pre-set values. In the following section it will be shown how, by using the configuration commands, you can examine the configuration of the POCKET ISDN-TA and if necessary change it.
