2. Verify that the M10 MODEM is directly connected
   to a telephone line, the DIR/ACP switch in
   the DIR position and the ANS/CAL switch set to
   CAL.

3. Access TELCOM and press <F1> (Find); in
   response to the prompt, type in the name of
   the host System and press <ENTER>.

4. When the name and number are displayed on the
   screen, press <F2> (Call).

5. The number is now dialled automatically, the
   digits appearing as they are dialled.

6. When communication with the host System is
   established, the M10 MODEM enters Terminal
   mode automatically, emitting a high-pitched
   sound; the designation of the function keys
   F1-F8 in Terminal mode appear at the fopt of
   the screen.

The M10 MODEM will now proceed to log-on to the
host System, in accordance with the Instructions
entered in the angle brackets < > in the ADRS.DO
file. There are four special command keys to
enable you to set up the log-on protocol.

? This character teils the M10 MODEM to wait
  until the next character in the string is
  received before continuing e.g. ?P means wait
  until the character P is received from the host
  before proceeding.

= This character imposes a delay of two seconds
  in the procedure.

! The exclamation mark teils the MIO MODEM
  to transmit the next character as it Stands e.g.
  != means transmit the character = rather than
  wait for two seconds. The character ! allows
  the M10 MODEM to distinguish between special
  characters and transmitted characters.

^ This symbol instructs the MIO MODEM to send
  the next character as a control character e.g.
  ^C means transmit Control-C.
