Seb has gone south, though I would connect u.s. robotics modem to that port also have another spare port I could use printed ld 22 adan does anyone have have print out i could use when I make changes in ld 17 to config port for modem will use hyperterminal on far end. I installed this switch 12 years ago and have not installed a new switch in at least 10 retired Verizon 37 years service.
 
Will this help?.

Modem working on Meridian
THIS IS FOR US ROBOTICS COURIER/SPORTSTER
ALSO FOR THE USRobotics Courier V.Everything

1) The SDI port must be configured for Modem Attachment ( to connect to a DCE) set to 9600, wordlength 8, 1 stop bit, NO parity.

2) The tested Modem is a US Robotics Courier / Sportster WITH DIP Switches. Note newer models of Sportster do not have DIP switches and are not suitable.

3) The Modem should be connected to a terminal device via its V24 port to enable programming.

The modem will respond to AT<CR> with OK, if not then the command
ATE1 V1 Q0<CR> will get the correct response. (echo on, verbose mode, quiet mode disabled)

The command string to set the modem up is dependant on the switch settings.
Some of the switch settings will override the command string on power up so the switch settings must be set first

SW setting
1 on
2 off
3 off
4 on
5 off
6 on
7 off
8 ........ leave on for the present. I.E. not in dumb mode.

Now enter the command string

AT&A3&B0&C1&D0&H1&I0&K0&M4&N6&R1&S0&T5&Y1<CR>
the modem will answer OK

Now enter

ATB0E0F1L2M1Q1V1X3Y0<CR>
the modem will not respond, you have set it in quiet mode with no echo.

to store the settings in the Non Volatile RAM (NVRAM)

AT&W<CR>

This will ensure that the ‘power on’ settings are as above .
Now turn the Modem power off and back on again...

type
ATI4<CR>
to see the power up settings ( this will still print even in quiet mode with echo off.

it should look like

It is now time to set the modem into DUMB mode. this is the reason you need a modem with DIP switches.
DUMB mode means that the modem will ignore any AT commands on its V24 port ( I.E. from the Meridian).
DIP switch 8 need to be set OFF, then turn the modem power off to activate the change in switch settings.

When you turn the modem on you will not be able to get it to respond to any AT commands.

You can now connect the modem to the Meridian.

If you need to make any changes to the modem settings you will need to set DIP switch 8 to ON, turn the modem off and on again, then switch the Echo on ATE1<CR> and remove quiet mode ATQ0<CR>
