Warning Notice to New Zealand Users of the IBM ThinkPad
Modem
The grant of a Telepermit for a device in no way indicates
Telecom acceptance of responsibility for the correct operation of
that device under all operating conditions.
In particular the higher speeds at which this modem is capable of
operating depend on a specific network implementation which is
only one of many ways of delivering high quality voice telephony
to customers. Failure to operate should not be reported as a fault
to Telecom.
In addition to satisfactory line conditions a modem can only work
properly if:
1. it is compatible with the modem at the other end of the call
and
2. the application using the modem is compatible with the appli-
cation at the other end of the call - e.g. accessing the
Internet requires suitable software in addition to a modem.
Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom's Tele-
permit requirements are dependent on the equipment (PC) asso-
ciated with this device. The associated equipment shall be set to
operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom's
Specifications:
1. There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same
number within any 30 minute period for any single manual
call initiation.
2. The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than
30 seconds between the end of one attempt and the begin-
ning of the next attempt.
3. Where automatic calls are made to different numbers, the
equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 5
seconds between the end of one attempt and the beginning
of the next attempt.
4. The equipment shall be set to ensure that calls are answered
between 3 and 30 seconds of receipt of ringing (S0 set
between 2 and 10). This ensures:
