Modem Phone Line(s)
Modem Phone Line(s) should be dedicated analog or ISDN phone lines, free of incoming calls. Incoming calls will
cause line errors and interfere with PhoneSweep’s operation (PhoneSweep will stop dialing on that line). If dialing
outside your local phone system, we recommend using direct lines if possible. Please verify that each line is free
of blocks on both your side and telephone company’s side.
Please see the recommended modems for further modem details and
multiport solutions for help with multi-port serial I/O card selection.
Security
We recommend for added security, that the PhoneSweep system not be connected to any network; or that you
disconnect the system from the network when you are not present. If system is on a network, such as when using
Gold Distributed and/or
Automatic E-mail Notification options, all security precautions should
be followed (See the PhoneSweep Gold Manual for additional information).
