Chapter 1 - Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the MultiModemZBA modem. You have acquired one of the finest

intelligent voice/data/fax modems available today from one of the world’s oldest modem manufacturers:

Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. This user guide will help you to install, configure, test and use your modem.

The Products

MT5634ZBA-V.90 A desktop global data/fax modem supporting the V.90 protocol.

MT5634ZBA-V-V.90 A desktop global data/fax/voice modem supporting the V.90 protocol.

MT5634ZBA-V92 A desktop global data/fax modem supporting the V.92 protocol.

MT5634ZBA-V-V92 A desktop data/fax/voice modem supporting the V.92 protocol.

The Features

·Global Approval – With an MT5634ZBA global product, you need just one modem for worldwide

use. The MT5634ZBA has approvals in 40+ countries. This means one global product can ship

virtually anywhere.

·Voice – (With Voice Models) The voice feature supports voice mail and a full-duplex speakerphone.

This allows you and the caller to speak and listen at the same time.

·Remote Configuration – Whether you provide connectivity for a sales office just miles away or for

multiple offices across the world, the MultiModemZBA lets you configure each remote modem from a

central site. See Chapter 5 for a complete discussion.

·Callback Security – Callback security protects your network from unauthorized access. It also helps

control long-distance charges for remote offices and users requiring access to the central site LAN.

When callback security is enabled, the remote callers enter a password, and then the central site’s

modem calls back. See Chapter 6 for a complete discussion.

·Modem-on-Hold – Modem-on-Hold works with your telephone company’s Call Waiting service to put

a remote modem “on hold” while you answer a voice call. When you finish your conversation and

hang up, the previous connection resumes, providing you have not exceeded the time limit. Among

other things, this feature eliminates the problem of the modem disconnecting if someone calls you

while Call Waiting is enabled.

·2-Wire Leased-Line Support – A leased line is a private, permanent, telephone connection

between two points. Unlike normal dialup connections, a leased line is always active. The modems

automatically connect when they are attached to the line and are turned on. Because a leased line is

always active, one of the two modems on the line must be configured as the originate modem and

the other as the answer modem. It does not matter which is which. In the event of an interruption,

leased-line modems automatically reconnect when the data line or power is restored.

Chapter 2 - Installation

This chapter shows you step-by-step how to set up your Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA modem.

Safety Warnings

·Use this product only with UL- and CUL-listed computers (U.S.A. and Canada)

·To reduce the risk of fire, use only 26 AWG (.41mm) or larger telephone wiring.

·Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

·Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for wet

locations.

·Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been

disconnected at the network interface.

·Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

·Avoid using a telephone during an electrical storm; there is a risk of electrical shock from lightning.

·Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak.

Step 1: Mount the Feet

The modem comes with a set of self-adhesive plastic feet, which you can optionally mount on the modem.

To install the feet, simply peel them from their paper strip and press them into the recesses on the bottom of

the modem.

Step 2: Change the Internal Jumpers

This step is required only if:

·You intend to use the modem on a leased line.

·You intend to add a monophonic external speaker to your modem with the voice option. No changes

are needed for stereo.

This will require you to open the modem and move one or more jumpers on the modem’s printed circuit

board.

Warning: The following procedure must be performed by authorized service personnel.

Caution: The circuit board can be harmed by static electricity. Before you open the case, touch a grounded

object, such as the metal chassis of your computer, to discharge any static electricity in your body, then

touch the metal shell of the modem’s RS-232 connector to ensure that there is no voltage difference between

you and the modem.

Opening the Modem

1. If the modem is connected, turn it off and remove all connecting cables (including the power and

line cables).

2. Turn the modem upside down.

3. On the bottom of the modem are two screws, which hold the case together. Remove both

screws and set them aside.

4. Turn the modem right side up.

5. Remove the top part of the modem case.

6. To close the modem, reverse Steps 1–5.

Location of the Jumpers

Jumper for Modem

with Voice Option

Changing the Dial-Up/Leased-Line Jumper

As shipped from the factory, your modem is configured for normal dial-up operation. That is, the

modem must dial a phone number to connect to another modem. To use the modem on a leased

line, you must change jumper J10 to select leased line operation, and J11 to select whether it will

be the originating or the answering modem. If dial-up operation is selected, J11 has no effect.

See Chapter 3 for additional leased line information.

·The factory default is the answer position. This makes the modem the answering modem

on the leased line.

·To use the modem on a leased line, move the J10 jumper plug from thedefaultdial-uppositiontothe

leased line position.

·To make the modem the originating modem on the leased line, move the J11 jumper plug to the

originate position.

Changing the Voice Jumper

The speaker jumper (J8) is next to the external speaker jack.

·The factory default position of the voice jumper is set for a stereo speaker or sound card. A

jumper plug covers both pins of the J8 jumper.

·To use the modem with a monophonic external speaker, remove the jumper plug from the J8

jumper pins. You can store it by placing it on one jumper pin.

Step 3: Connect the Modem to Your PC

Turn off your computer. Place the modem in a convenient location, and then connect it to your computer’s

serial port, the telephone line or leased line, AC power, and, optionally, your telephone.

Connections - No Voice Connections With Voice

Connect the Modem to Your PC

Plug one end of the serial cable into the RS232 connector on the modem and the other end into a

serial port connector on your computer, such as COM1 or COM2.

Connect the Modem to the Telephone Line

Plug one end of the modular telephone cable into the modem’s LINE jack and the other end into a

standard phone wall jack.

Important: The LINE jack is not interchangeable with the PHONE jack. Do not plug the telephone

into the LINE jack or the line cable into the PHONE jack.

Note: Regulatory agencies may impose certain restrictions on equipment connected to public

telephone systems. For more information, see Appendix A.

Connect the Two-Wire Leased Line (Leased Line Only)

Plug one end of a two-wire telephone cable into the modem’s LINE jack and the other end to a

two-wire leased line wall jack or terminals.

Note: Before you can use the modem on a leased line, you must first change the internal jumpers.

See “Step 2: Change the Internal Jumpers.”

Connect the Modem to a Phone (Optional)

If you want to connect a phone to same line as the modem, plug it into the modem’s PHONE jack.

Important: The PHONE jack is not interchangeable with the LINE jack. Do not plug the telephone

into the LINE jack or the line cable into the PHONE jack.
