1. Installing Creative Plug and Play Configuration Manager

   To use your Creative Plug and Play (PnP) card in DOS/Windows 3.x
   systems, you need to install the Creative Plug and Play Configuration
   Manager (CTCM).

   CTCM.EXE checks that your Creative PnP card is properly configured.
   CTCM is required for the following situations:

   (a) If you do not have a PnP configuration manager such as the
       Intel Plug and Play ISA Configuration Manager (ICM) installed
       in your system.
   (b) If you have loaded ICM but it does not configure your Creative
       PnP card properly.
   (c) If you have a PnP BIOS system but it does not configure your
       Creative PnP card properly.

   CTCM.EXE can coexist with both ICM and PnP BIOS systems, and it
   does not occupy any DOS memory. Hence, it is highly recommended for
   you to install and load CTCM in your system.  If you are loading
   both CTCM and ICM, note that ICM has to be loaded before CTCM.

   To install CTCM, run the installation program that comes with your
   package. The installation program will add the following statement
   to your CONFIG.SYS file:

      DEVICE=C:\path\CTCM.EXE

      where path is the installed directory e.g., CTCM.


2. Configuring and Testing Your Modem Blaster

   (a) If you are using ICM and you want to change the configuration of your
       card, you will need to:

       (i)   Run the Intel Plug and Play ISA Configuration Utility (ICU) to
             change the configuration of your card.
       (ii)  Reboot the system.
       (iii) Run the test program DIAGNOSE to verify the configuration.

   (b) If you are not using ICM, ensure that you have loaded CTCM. You can
       then configure your card to other resource settings and test your card
       with these new settings by running the test program DIAGNOSE. Note that
       DIAGNOSE will highlight the current settings (or the default settings
       if the card is disabled) and you may change these settings.

   Note: DIAGNOSE.EXE can be found in your Modem Blaster directory.

   To run DIAGNOSE:

   1) At the DOS prompt, change to your installed directory (e.g., CTMB).
         For example, type CD CTMB and press <Enter>.
   2) Type DIAGNOSE and press <Enter>.
   3) Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the test.


3. NOTES FOR USE OF THIS DEVICE IN AUSTRALIA

   Any modem connected to the Australian telecommunications network must
   have a valid AUSTEL permit.

   This modem has been specifically configured to ensure compliance
   with AUSTEL standard.

   Do not adjust your modem or software outside the values indicated
   below.  To do so would result in your modem being operated in a
   non-compliant manner.

   Command       Default     Permissible Range
   ATA           None        Do not use
   ATB           B0          Do not set for Bell mode
   AT&G          &G2         &G0
   AT&P          &P1         &P1 only
   ATSn          See table below

   S-Register    Default     Permissible Range
   s0            0           0, 2 to 255
   s6            3           2-5 (May be determined by the ATX value)
   s7            50          21 to 255
   s8            2           0 to 255
   s10           14          1 to 255
   s11           70          70 to 255
   s29           50          10 to 100
   s91           13          13 only
   s92           13          13 only

   Call attempt retries:

   Application software shall be configured so that no more than 3
   attempts are made to establish a connection to a given number.
   There must be at least 30 minutes before attempting to call the
   number again.

   Failure to set the modem, and any application software used with
   the modem, to the values shown above will result in the modem
   being operated in a non-compliant manner.  Consequently, there
   would be no permit in force for this equipment, and the
   Telecommunications Act 1991 prescribes a penalty of $12,000 for
   the connection of non-permitted equipment.
