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.
