                       MISCELLANEOUS TECHNICAL NOTES
           Note: Diagram not available. This modem is asynchronous only,
           but if your software supports synchronous operation the modem
           will run synchronous mode.

  Note:                 These commands are used by software that allows
                        the modem to operate in synchronous mode, this
                        modem doesnt have the hardware to support
                        synchronous mode.
