You may wish
to
connect The
Mac
with another personal
computer such as the IBM
PC
XT using the modem but not the
telephone.
The
Hayes modem
is
capable
of
this configuration.
Connect the modems back
to
back as shown in the Hayes
modem manual. As an example, instruct the Mac
to
dial the
PC
XT.
The modem will dial the number and wait for
an
answer. Since there
is
no ringing, the IBM
PC
XT's modem will
not
automatically answer.
Enter"
ATA" into the
PC
XT.
This
is
a direct modem command forcing it
to
answer the telephone.
The modems will connect normally.
