Apple Modem Tool 1.5 that is distributed with the Newton Connection Kit 1.0,
is compatible with other modems than Apple and Hayes-compatible modems. This
version of Apple Modem Tool 1.5, however, doesn't ship with a list of other
modems' command strings; it only offers the choice of Hayes-Compatible,
Custom, and a group of different Apple modems.
The workaround is to create a custom configuration for your modem. To do so,
follow these steps:
1) Choose Connection from the Settings Menu.
2) In the lower-left corner of the Connection Settings dialog are the Modem
Settings options. Scroll doen the list and select Custom.
3) Enter your "Custom Modem Configuration" (Refer to your modem user manual
or contact the manufacturer of the modem should you need help in
determining the proper command string to use.)
Your modem should now operate properly.
