Try the Club100 Documentation section. The NEC PC-8300 Telcom Manual is there.

Is there a difference between the Stat arguments in Telcom on the 8201a
vs the 8300?
I can't find a pc-8300 manual on-line that covers telcom. Just a user
guide, basic, and text. And the tech references on web8201.net.
Apparently there was a dedicated manual for telcom.
The closest I can find is the BASIC manual shows an example
OPEN "COM:9N82XN"
which is the same format as 8201.
On my 8201a, the following works ("works" defined simply as: it accepts
the change in settings, and a subsequent Stat command shows the new
settings, not talking about actually communicating)
F4
Stat 3n81xn
(upper or lowercase both work)
On 8300, the Stat key is F3 instead of F4.
Stat with no argument shows:
8I71XSP10
That's also the same format as 8201, just like the BASIC example.
But I can't get the stat command to accept anything.
The same exact format that works on 8201 isn't working.
Even typing the current displayed string back verbatim, with or without
the added P10, still beeps.
I found the NEC.THD file in the M100SIG which probably explains why
there's no manual available. They simply didn't sell this model to end
users via retail channels. It was just sold to big companies for
internal/integrated use.
Apparently the built-in telcom actually has xmodem???
