Automatic Multiple Dialing Attempts
Most communication software can be configured to
make automatic dialing attempts to a telephone
number that is busy or not answering (automatic redial
function). The maximum number of all attempts that
can be made in one sequence must not exceed the
numbers shown in the following table. If your program
makes continuous automatic dialing attempts or more
than the number in the table, and it cannot be
changed, an alternative program must be used or
automatic dialing disabled. There is no limit for
manually initiated dialing attempts.

Bell Compatible Operation
Bell compatible mode should not be used. Nearly all
modems use CCITT mode because Bell mode is limited
to a maximum speed of 300 or 1200 BPS, and some
network interference problems may arise due to line
signaling requirements.
Parallel Telephones
If you find that you regularly experience line noise or
other interference when using your modem, we suggest
disconnecting other telephones from the line. Some
telephones may place a load across the telephone line
when not in use, which adversely affects the
performance of your modem.
If disconnecting parallel telephones reduces the
interference, then it may be necessary to have the
telephone(s) repaired or replaced.
