1) You will havce to convert the PIC's RS232 signals (Gnd & +5 Volts,
inverted !)   to true RS232 (+/- 3 to 15 volts).  You could use a MAX232
for this purpose.

2) A terminal emulation program for a PIC ?  I did not know it had a screen
& keyboard :-)   See your MODEM reference booklet for commands to send &
responses to expect (you can instruct the modem to generate full text
responses, or numbers only). Try sending a 'ATZ'  to your modem.  normally
it will respond with 'OK'.
