11c Remote Maintenance through Modem

[cecom]

Hi there-- I'm new to this site and to the field of the Option 11 - Here is my question(s)--
Could anyone help me in determining the correct modem settings and access programs (dial-up) for an Option 11C that I just purchaced? I have a USR 2400 Baud modem and am trying to get this hooked up so I can program it from my desk instead of at the site.. Any help would be appreciated!

You can set it up through Hyperterminal:

I used VT 52 for the emulator.

Parity/Stop Bits
8
None
1

Keep in mind you will not be able to access Meridian Mail via Hyperterminal. The software that works good with the PBX and Meridian Mail is called ProComm.

Colin,
When I type the string you mentioned above the modem comes back with ERROR - should the string be AT&B1&W1&W1? why W1 twice?
