TRAVELSAFE UTILITY FOR THE

AERO H/PC PRO

COMPAQ AERO H/PC PROFESSIONAL

INSTRUCTION CARD

TravelSafe is an application designed to diminish the need to enter manual modem dialing

strings when traveling internationally. You select the country where you will be using

your modem, and TravelSafe adjusts your modem’s settings for you. In countries not on

TravelSafe’s selection list, you can still use your Aero H/PC’s modem by manually

entering the appropriate dialing strings.

TravelSafe can be found in the Compaq Utilities folder or:

1. Click on StartàProgramsàCommunication and then select TravelSafe. A

TravelSafe Dialog Box appears.

2. Select from the drop-down list the COM Port on which your modem is installed.

TravelSafe’s default is COM Port 6, which is where the Aero H/PC’s internal

modem is installed. (See below if your unit does not have an internal modem

installed.)

3. Select from the drop-down list the Country where you intend to use your modem.

4. Click on Apply. TravelSafe will attempt to communicate with your modem to set

the necessary modem properties according to your selections. Once the selections

have been set, they can be changed by repeating steps 1-4 in these instructions.

5. If you receive an error message, verify that the COM Port you selected is correct,

and try again.

6. After TravelSafe has properly set up the modem, the flag of the country you selected

will be displayed in the lower right hand corner of the TravelSafe application.

7. Click on the Hide button to put the TravelSafe icon on the system tray.

8. To close TravelSafe, double click the TravelSafe icon in the system tray to

maximize the application, and then click on the “X” in the upper right hand corner

If your Aero H/PC does not have an internal modem installed, you can still

use TravelSafe by installing an approved PC Card Modem, and following the

instructions above. In Step 2., select the COM Port that is assigned to the PC

Card modem.
