TELCOM PROGRAM

The TELCOM program allows the M10 to communicate
with another computer or host system. Connection
may be either direct, using the special null
modem connecting cable, or remote, by means of a
telephone line. There are substantial differences
between the M10 MODEM and the other versions.

There are two operating modes in TELCOM, Entry
and Terminal. When you access TELCOM you are
automatically in Entry mode.


ENTRY MODE

This mode allows you to access Terminal mode, to
select the communications parameters and provides
the M10 MODEM with the auto-dial option.
