1. Introduction
This is a User Guide for the Simple Technology® 33.6 Communicator with
SimpleJack™, 33.6 Communicator and 14.4 Communicator PC Cards.
Refer to the appropriate that follows for an introduction to the features of
your new PC Card.
The 33.6 Communicator with SimpleJack
and 33.6 Communicator
The 33.6 Communicator with SimpleJack and the 33.6 Communicator are
modem PC Cards that feature 33.6 Kbps data transfer, 14.4 Kbps fax,
cellular-ready and voice capabilities. In addition, the 33.6 Communicator
with SimpleJack features a built-in foldaway phone jack permitting
maximum portability. The 33.6 Communicator connects to the phone line
via a line access cable.
These PC Cards allow you to fax and to send and receive data. With
computers that have a microphone and speakers, the voice capabilities of
the PC Cards allow you to use your computer as an answering machine
with voice-mail. With the line access cable (optional for the 33.6 Communi-
cator with SimpleJack), you may use a compatible handset in case your
computer does not have a microphone and speakers.
Also, the PC Cards are cellular ready, featuring Microcom® MNP10
EC™ error correction and compression. The 33.6 Communicator with
SimpleJack features Celeritas® TX-CEL™ transmit spectral shaping.
These features ensure fast and reliable data and fax transmission over
harsh cellular conditions. For use with Microsoft® Windows™␣ 3.x and
Windows 95, optional cellphone cables and drivers for most cellphones
are available from your Simple Technology dealer.
The PC Cards work with PCMCIA Release 2.1 (or higher) Type II
specifications, standard on most laptop and notebook computers. The PC
Cards work with the Card and Socket Services already installed with
Microsoft® Windows™ NT, Windows 95 and Apple®MacOS™ System 7.
The PCMCIA standard facilitates hardware installation—just plug the
card into your computer socket. For Windows 3.x, Windows 95, IBM®
OS/2®Warp and MacOS System 7 the card features Plug n’ Play. This
allows you to install the card with your operating system already
running.
The credit-card size and Plug n’ Play installation of the card make it ideal
for transferring the modem between computers. This allows you to buy
one modem for use with several computers.
The cards feature Digital Line Guard. This protects the card against high-
current digital phone lines commonly found in hotels and offices.
