*****************************************************************
Set-Up Instructions for Enrollment:
You will be asked a series of questions to configure the set-up
program for your particular modem and dialing requirements. Those
questions are as follows:
1). TO BEGIN THE ENROLLMENT PROGRAM. Press the <F2> key from the
previous menu to start the enrollment process.
2). COM PORT. The program will search for your communications
port that is assigned to your modem. Confirm the Com Port by
typing in the number when prompted. Be sure not to assign the Com
Port you have designated for your mouse. NOTE: Your mouse and
modem can not be on odd or even number Com Ports. For example, if
your modem is on Com Port 1, your mouse must be on Com Port 2 or
Com Port 4.
3). MODEM INITIALIZATION. The program will set your modem at the
factory default setting of AT&F, then test to make sure that modem
string will work for your modem. If you use a specific modem
initialization string for your modem, enter that string when asked.
If you need assistance building a modem string please call Customer
Service at 1-800-547-4727.
4). PHONE NUMBER. You will be dialing an 800# to enroll. The
program will ask you if you need to enter a "1" before the 800#.
Simply respond "Yes" or "No.
Some phone systems require you to dial a "9" (or calling code) to
get an outside line. Penthouse Online will automatically place two
commas after your code to allow for a longer delay.
5). TO CONNECT. When the Penthouse Online Access screen appears,
press "C" to connect. NOTE: DO NOT ENTER THE SET-UP AREA, you have
already given the set-up appropriate instructions from your
previous entries. The network will give you a DIALING message, a
CONNECTED message, a CHECKING USER ID/PASSWORD message and then a
YOU ARE LOGGED ON message. After a few second the first sign-up
screen will appear.
6). ON-LINE SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION. At this screen, simply
complete each field.
7). ENTRY OF PAYMENT INFORMATION. You are given the option to use
your VISA or Mastercard for payment on your sign-up fee, basic
monthly service charges and usage fees. The credit card number and
expiration date must be typed in correctly so we can validate your
credit card.
The specified account will be electronically debited each month.
The debit generally occurs on the 10th of each month. You are
responsible for any charges that are incurred, but are free to call
customer service with any questions. Your invoice is available on-
line under ACCOUNT INFORMATION. There you may find a CURRENT TIME
METER and your PREVIOUS INVOICE. We do not send invoices via
traditional mail.
8). USER I.D. This number is randomly assigned to you. Your user
I.D. is permanent and can not be changed. Write this number down
for future reference.
9). PASSWORD. Passwords are used to provide security for each
user. We assign the first password, but after you log-on for the
first time you may change your password as often as you wish. From
the General Directory you must follow the path: Hot Stuff/Account
Information/Personal Data. The password can be no more than 8
characters in length. Do not use any characters other than
alphanumeric, with no spaces. You must wait 24-hours to access the
service using your new password. BE SURE TO REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORD.
10). TO QUIT ENROLLMENT PROGRAM. After you assigned a User I.D.
and Password you will be asked to exit the enrollment program by
typing "Q" (for Quit) at the Penthouse Online Access screen.
YOU MUST QUIT THE PHSIGNUP PROGRAM FOR THE SYSTEM TO UPDATE
YOUR ACCESS SOFTWARE WITH YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO LOG ON
TO THE PENTHOUSE ONLINE SERVICE.
Set-Up to Access Penthouse Online:
1). Type PHO at the C:>PHO prompt.
You will be asked the same series of questions similar to the
enrollment program for: COM PORT designation, MODEM INITIALIZATION,
and PHONE NUMBER special requirements, that were asked in the
enrollment program.
Your Terminal Set-Up screen will be configured based on the modem
parameters and personal information assigned during the enrollment
process. The Terminal Set-Up screen will be personalized with the
name that you entered in the Subscriber Information section during
enrollment (e.g.; Susie Smith)
2). PASSWORD ENTRY. You will be prompted to enter your password
into the set-up screen. This is optional. Some users choose not to
enter their password, to prevent others from having access to their
account. If you do not have your password in the set-up screen, you
will be prompted to enter your password each time you log-on to the
service.
3). BAUD RATE. The program will search for the fastest available
speed for your modem. Confirm the search by typing the appropriate
speed for your modem. For example, type 4 for 9600 bps.
4). PHONE BOOK. Penthouse Online gives you access to the service
via a local number. Use this section to select your access number
based on area code and baud rate of your modem. When prompted,
type in the area code of your calling area. Highlight the access
number you wish to use. This number will be placed in your set-up.
4). THE PENTHOUSE ONLINE ACCESS SCREEN. At the Penthouse Online
Access Screen press "C" to connect. If all of your parameters for
your modem are set correctly you will be logged-on to the service
after it checks your User I.D. and Password.
YOU MUST WAIT 24 HOURS AFTER ENROLLING BEFORE YOU ARE ALLOWED
ACCESS TO THE PROGRAM.
If you have any questions, or encounter difficulty using the
enrollment program or logging-on to the service, please phone
customer service at 1-800-547-4727. Please have your user I.D.
handy.
