Table 2-21 Solving Infrared Connection Problems
Problem
Cannot link with another computer.
Cause
Interrupt request (IRQ) conflict Baud rate conflict # bits conflict Stop bit conflict Parity conflict
Recommended Action(s)
Check IRQ assignments for conflicts and reassign as necessary. Select the same baud rate for both computers. Select the same #bits setting for both computers. Select the same stop byte for both computers. Select the same parity setting for both computers. Remove the interfering light sources.
Data transmission problem
Direct sunlight, fluorescent light, or flashing incandescent light is close to the infrared connections. Interference from other infrared devices Physical obstruction
Keep remote control units and other infrared devices away from the infrared connections. Do not place objects between the two units that will interfere with a line-of-sight data transmission. Do not move either unit during data transmission. Adjust devices so that they point within 30 degrees of each other. Verify that devices are not more than 3 feet (1 meter) apart. Download FASTIR driver from Compaq web site and install.

Troubleshooting 2-27
Solving Modem Problems
Table 2-22 Solving Modem Problems
Problem
Modem loses connection.
Probable Cause
The connection from the phone line to the modem is loose. Call Waiting has not been disabled.
Recommended Action(s)
Check to make sure the telephone cable is properly connected. Click Start Control Panel double-click Modems. From the General tab of the Modems Properties page, click Dialing Properties. From the My Locations tab of the Dialing Properties page, check the box labeled This location has call waiting. Select *70, 70#, or 1170 from the drop-down list to disable call waiting for your dialing area.
Noisy telephone line
Phone line noise causing garbled or missing characters, or slow data transfer speeds. Hang-up Delay S Register (S10) set too low.
Check your telephone and modem cable connections. If they are a little loose, they can cause noise on the line. Check with your local telephone company for a phone line filter. [. . . ] NOTE: If you are replacing the base enclosure, transfer the IR module to the new enclosure.
