Some Octet user stations and devices support audio and serial data emulation. In order for
a user to receive audio and serial data, the following conditions must exist:

such as the KV1713A/E user station.
• The user must be accessing a device that has been enabled by the Administrator to
output audio and serial data.
• The target device must be connected to an SAMDM module.
Each user can configure the audio and serial settings that will be available when he or she
logs in.
