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.
