top of the screen.  Then select your choice

             Modem Baud Rate
Baud rate is the rate at which your modem
tranfers data.  Changing the default setting
of this program (which is 300 baud) should
not be necessary unless your modem does not
support this rate.  Since TMC only uses the
baud rate in initializing the modem for
dialing phone numbers and does not transfer
any data.  The rate used is not important as
long as your modem supports the selected
baud rate.
             Modem COM Port
Your modems COM port is the communications
port which your modem uses.  It is normally
determined by switch settings on the modem
itself.  If possible, set up your modem to
use either COM1 or COM2 since COM3 & COM4
are not always supported by other programs.
Note: changing your modem to a different
COM port may cause conflicts with other
devices which also use the communication
ports.  Consult your manuals for more info.
             Modem Data Word
The format of the data word in this program
is used for initializing the modem and is
not important unless your modem does not
support the format selected.  If you have
problems with the phone dialer check your
modem manual and select a format that your
modem supports.  Note: see also Baud Rate,
COM Port, Dial string and Hangup string.


            Modem Dial String
The Modem dial string and the Modem Hangup
string are used by your modem as their
names imply for setting up to dial a phone
number and hanging up (disconnecting the
modem from the line).  These string of
characters are part of the AT command set.
Each group of characters specifies a
function to be preformed, such as deter-
mining if pulse or tone dialing is used.
See your modem manual for more details.
            Modem Hangup String
The Modem dial string and the Modem Hangup
string are used by your modem as their
names imply for setting up to dial a phone
number and hanging up (disconnecting the
modem from the line).  These string of
characters are part of the AT command set.
Each group of characters specifies a
function to be preformed, such as deter-
mining if pulse or tone dialing is used.
See your modem manual for more details.
                Printer Port
You must select the Printer port which
your printer is connected with to be able
to print data from this program.  Most
likely your printer is connected to LPT1.
See your DOS manual and your printer
manual for more information on printer
ports.



                Printer Type
There are two printer types specified
by this program: Generic and Compatible.
By selecting Generic this program should
work with all types, brands and models
of printers.  The Compatible type will
work with most printers that use the
same compatible standards used by this
program and should print better.  The
list of printer types will be expanded
in future versions of this program.
               Screen Saver
The screen saver can be set to blank
the screen whenever a key is not pressed
for a time adjustable from 1-20 minutes.
Setting the screen saver to 0 disables
it.  The screen can also be immediately
blanked by pressing <Shift><F10> when
not in an edit mode or using a menu.
To unblank the screen just press any
key.  Using the screen saver helps
prevent image "burn in".
              Sound On/Off
Program sound can be turned off or on by
selecting this item.  This program uses
sound mainly to warn the user of an
incorrect key stroke.  Note: there are
a few computer systems which do not have
an internal speaker and with these
systems the sound should be turned off.



          Set Sys Date/Time
With this option you can set your
computers internal time and date.  Just
type in the correct time and/or date in
the format shown and press <Enter>, or
<Esc> to cancel.





               Tab Set
The number of spaces that the Tab key
moves the cursor in one of the edit
modes is determined by the Tab Set.
Any number of spaces can be selected
between 1 and 20.
This is helpful when indenting lines
of text or other traditional uses of
the tab key on a typewriter.


             About Set Up
Set Up is a program used to determine
certain properties of TMC Calendar &
Phone Book (such as screen colors).
The value of these properties are
stored in a file called CALSETUP.INI.
TMC uses the information from this file
to set itself up as the user specified.
If this file ever gets corrupted, just
delete it and TMC or Set Up will create
a new one with the default values.
