2-2 RealPort Modem 56 User’s Guide
5 After plug and play installation is complete, and before restart-
ing the computer, use Start/Run to execute SETUP.EXE from
the Xircom diskette. Xircom Utilities will be copied to your
hard disk, a program group will be set up, and CountrySelect
and online registration utilities will launch. Make a country
selection (U.S.A. is the default) and complete the registration.
6 Remove the Xircom diskette and reboot the system.
Xircom Utilities
The following utilities are installed into the Xircom Utilities
program group by SETUP.EXE. Double-click the appropriate icon
to run the utility.
• COM Port Selector - View and modify modem COM port
settings
• CountrySelect - Configure your modem for a particular
country
• Modem Test - Display COM port status and input modem
commands

• Registration - Register the product online using the modem
Windows 95 and 98 Installation 2-3
Windows 95 and 98 Troubleshooting
Review this section if any of the following problems occur:
• Modem initialization errors occur when attempting to dial-
out using a communications application.
• Connection fails or other problems occur.
It may be necessary to define a modem type within your commu-
nications application. If the Xircom modem is not listed, choose a
“Generic Hayes compatible” device.
If your computer is equipped with an infrared communications
port, you may need to disable this port. These ports often use
COM port resources required for other communications devices.
Disable the infrared port both in the computer’s CMOS or BIOS
setup program and the Windows Device Manager, as follows:
1 Some computers use a hardware setup utility to configure the
infrared port in the BIOS. See your computer documentation.
2 To disable the infrared communications port in Windows, go to
Device Manager tab under System in the Control Panel.
3 Double-click the Ports (COM & LPT) entry and the IR Serial
Port entry. Remove the check mark under Device Usage. (Note:
In Windows 95 version 950b or later check the “Disable in this
Hardware Profile” option to disable the device.)
2-4 RealPort Modem 56 User’s Guide
Use the Modem Diagnostics Tool to verify the computer-to-
modem interface.
1 In the Modems option in Control Panel, click Diagnostics.
2 In Diagnostics properties, highlight the COM port associated
with the Xircom modem and click the More Info button. This
causes Windows to send commands to and read responses
from the modem and display information about the modem
and its COM port. The Port Information box should display the
following information:
•
The IRQ and I/O address of the modem’s COM port.
These should match the physical configuration of the port
or modem adapter.
•
Modem responses to various AT commands. The Xircom
modem may return ERROR for some AT commands that
are not supported. This does not indicate a failure.
3 A log file can be useful to help identify modem problems by
recording modem commands and responses. Windows 95 and
98 have slightly different procedures for creating and maintain-
ing a log file:
• In Windows 95, go to Control Panel, Modems, Properties,
Connection, Advanced. In the Advanced Connection Settings
window, place a check mark in the Record a log file option
box. A MODEMLOG.TXT file will be created in the
C:\ WINDOWS directory the next time the modem is used.
• Windows 98 creates a log file by default in the Windows
directory, using a filename based on the modem device
identifier, with a .LOG extension, in this case
"Xircom_Modem_56.log" (or a shortened version in MS-
DOS). To continue adding information to the log file, place
a check mark in the Append to Log option box in the
Advanced Connection Settings window (see the Windows 95
instructions above for the complete path to this window).
CHAPTER 3
Windows NT 4.0 Installation
PCMCIA Services Verification
Before installing the Xircom RealPort Integrated PC Card, make
sure that PCMCIA services are enabled on your computer.
1 Select Devices from the Control Panel.
2 Scroll down the Device list to the PCMCIA device. The Status
should be Started and the Startup should be Boot. If this is not
how PCMCIA is configured, then click Startup, set the Startup
Type to Boot, and click OK.
Modem Installation
Use the following procedure to install the modem:
1 Shut off power to the computer (power down).
2 Insert the Xircom RealPort Modem 56 into the PC Card slot in
the computer.
3 Power up the computer.
4 In the Control Panel, double-click the Modems icon.
5 In the Modem Properties window, click Add.
6 At the Install New Modem screen make sure that the Don’t
detect my modem; I will select it from a list checkbox is NOT
checked. Click Next. NT will query the COM ports to find the
Xircom modem. Click Next. If a Standard Modem is found,
click Change. Click Have disk. Insert the Xircom diskette and
verify or type the path to the diskette. Verify that the Xircom
Modem 56 is selected, then click OK.
7 At the Install New Modem screen click Finish.

9 Use Start/Run to execute SETUP.EXE from the Xircom diskette.
Xircom Utilities will be copied to your hard drive, a program
group will be set up, and CountrySelect and online registration
utilities will launch. Make a country selection (U.S.A. is the
default) and complete the registration.

Windows NT 4.0 Installation 3-3
Troubleshooting Modem Setup
Modem difficulties can usually be traced to interrupt, I/O address
or communications port conflicts. A modification to the Windows
NT 4.0 default communication drivers or physical damage to card
or cables can also be the source of problems.
Symptoms and Possible Causes
Windows NT fails to detect a Xircom modem. These conditions
can be caused by the lack of an available COM Port, or by a
resource conflict with another device.
Possible Solutions
1 Modify the interrupt and/or I/O address for the Xircom card
until no conflicts remain.
2 If your computer has an infrared communications port, disable
it. These ports often use COM port resources required for other
communications devices. Most infrared ports may be disabled
from within the computer’s CMOS or BIOS setup program. On
some computers a hardware setup utility is used. See your
computer documentation.
3 For difficulties in connecting to specific sites such as your
Internet Service Provider, or company remote access locations,
verify with the support personnel at the respective locations
that your client software and dial-in communications software
are configured properly.

your telephone line and still have all those devices ring when your telephone
number is called. In most but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the
number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN,
you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum
REN for your calling area.
If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they
will notify you in advance. But if advance notice is not practical, you will be
notified as soon as possible. You will be informed of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,
operations or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your
equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportu-
nity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact
Xircom, Inc. at (805) 376-9200 for information on obtaining service or repairs.
The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the
