    If  you  cannot connect, three things must match on  both  sending  and

receiving modems/software. One is speed (bps). On non-V series modems,  set

the  software to Autobaud or Autodect = YES/ON, on V-Series NO/OFF. Two  is

Terminal Emulation (most often ANSI), some mainframe BBS use VT100 or  some

other emulation.  Emulation has nothing to do with the Modem. It is between

the  software  and  your display. (Some  special  emulations  will  require

special  software).  The  last  is Parity, Stop, and  Bits.  You  will  see

somewhere  in the software a place to set N,8,1 or E,7,1  (could  be  8,N,1

or 7,E,1) the two most common settings. Most local BBS use N,8,1 and  large

BBS like Compuserve use E,7,1.
