Modem switch settings

While the Hayes dialer protocol has become the de-facto industry standard, the way to set default "switch settings" vary greatly. External modems generally have a set of switches that control various modem defaults. Internal modems will either have these switches physically on the card or programmable from the operating system. Whichever way the modem is configured, the following table lists the required modem switch settings for correct operation with the TinyTERM Emulator.
