============
Some of these instructions may include references to "modem script
files" - These files are:
- CLASS73.MDM
- MODEM.INI
- IBMM56.MDM
- IBMM56MM.MDM

Most communications programs include a function to set up your
modem within the program. Most communications programs are
capable of Modem auto-detection which usually includes the
following steps:
1. Search for modem
2. Discovery of modem make, model, speed, communications port
and interrupt
3. Incorporation of modem configuration into program
The IBM modem is automatically configured by the communications
program if the modem is installed prior to the communications
program.
If the communications program is already installed, you are
installing a new modem and/or your modem is not functioning,
please follow the instructions for each application.
