The status screens, which display data concerning the operational status of
the modem, are discussed in Chapter 7. Instructions for using the pushbutton
controls and LCD are included in Chapter 3.

Quick Reset enables you to reset the modem without powering down the unit.

modem is cleared for a new start, and the ROM memory chip is checked—
select RESET from MAIN MENU screen 3. The modem displays the power-on
screen for a few seconds. Then it displays the EIA status screen.
