mode.
b. Connect PC serial port to the modem RS-232C port using modem cable
(Table A) or using a null-modem adapter (Figure 5).
NOTE:
Black Box model # ME-200 provides these null-modem connections and
female-to-female connectors.
c. Establish communications between the PC and modem using the commu-
nications software set for the generic parameters in Step 2.
