Communicating with Your NEC Versa 6-3
!
Fax/Modem Cards — You can use a PC card modem with your system to
communicate with others via fax, email, or connect to an online service or bulletin
board.
You can insert a fax/modem card in either slot.
Note
Outside the U.S. and Canada, you might need a modem and telephone
adapter approved for the local telephone system. Check with your local dealer for details
about purchasing this equipment.
Always insert the fax/modem card before using your fax/modem software application.
If you start the application before inserting the fax/modem card, the application
typically does not find the card.
Storage Cards
When you insert a memory or storage card in an NEC notebook computer, it appears as
a unique drive as long as the system has an available interrupt for the card.
Other Cards
Many other kinds of PC cards are available for notebook computers. They include the
following cards:
!
Global Positioning System (GPS) — enables the tracking of remote units (for
example, delivery trucks)
!
Serial — adds an extra serial communications port
!
Multimedia — combines animation and sound
PC Card Slots
Your NEC Versa SXi notebook integrates two CardBus slots for inserting two Type II
PC cards or one Type III PC card. The 32-bit CardBus also has zoomed video support
in the bottom slot (slot 1).
Note
The 32-bit CardBus structure is backward compatible, but also accepts new
CardBus cards.
Using the system’s PC card slots, you can add optional PC cards and connect external
devices to your NEC Versa. These devices include peripheral devices, such as modems,
LAN cards, and storage cards.
