(5) All other steps to communicate with and configure the DFS 700 are to be carried out as
described in Section 6.4.6. As part of this, a dial-in number must be entered in the DFS
list for the DFS to be dialled (see Figure 6-14) without using special characters (+/-) or
the national dial prefix.
Modem communication includes a dial-in process, which can be
observed on the “COM Monitor”. If the dial-in process is not
correctly executed, the connection settings to the PC for the
modem may have to be modified in accordance with the
modem's manual. For support please contact the manufacturer
of the modem in the PC.
