|=========================================================================| | | | Intel Modem System and Add-in Board Compatibility | | | |=========================================================================| GENERAL COMPATIBILITY STATEMENT All of Intel's external modems (SatisFAXtion Modem/400E, 14.4EX, 9600EX, 2400EX MNP, and 2400EX) can be used with nearly *ANY* RS-232 device. This includes data terminals, cash registers, or computers, regardless of operating system. However, you need an IBM compatible 286,386 or 486 system running DOS 3.0 or higher to use the fax software for the SatisFAXtion/400E. Intel's internal modems (SatisFAXtion Modem/100, 2400B Classic, and 2400B MNP modems will work in any IBM PC-compatible Classic bus-based computer (PC/XT/AT) under the DOS operating system. The 2400B modems also work under other operating systems (OS/2, Unix, etc.). Once the board is installed and working, all you need is communications software that runs under the operating system. These modems WILL NOT work in Micro Channel-based computers. The 2400B Modem 2 for Micro Channel-based computers will work in any Micro Channel-based computer (IBM MOD 50/60/70/80 etc...).This modem will not work in Classic-bus based computers. GENERAL COMPATIBILITY STATEMENT There are no compatibility problems with any other add-in cards. It is possible, however, to experience I/O address conflicts or IRQ conflicts between an Intel internal modem and another board in the computer. I/O address and IRQ conflicts are easily resolved by switching either the modem or the other device to a different address or IRQ. External modems cannot cannot cause conflicts because they use an existing serial port in the computer or terminal. =========================================================================== May 13, 1992 Intel FaxBACK # 4320 Page 1
