Operation
OVERVIEW
The Octal E&M Module is controlled by the ATLAS 550 Base Unit terminal
menu. The terminal menu allows for detailed configuration, status, and test-
ing of the Octal E&M Module.
Configuration of the Octal E&M Module is completed in two areas of the ter-
minal menu:
1. General configuration items for the Octal E&M-8 Voice Module are set
using M
ODULES
/E&M-8 M
ENUS
/C
ONFIG
(see the Menu Tree in Figure 3-
2 on page 3-3).
2. Specific configuration items depend on how the option module is used
and is displayed in the D
IAL
P
LAN
menus (see Appendix A, Dial Plan
Interface Configuration on page A-1).
Access the terminal menu using either a VT-100 terminal attached to the
ATLAS 550 Base Unit’s control port or a Telnet session established through
the Base Unit’s Ethernet port. The ATLAS 550 User Manual provides detailed
instructions on each of these management approaches.
To edit items in the terminal menu, you must have the appropriate
password level. Each menu description in this section indicates
the password level required for write and read access. See “Access
Passwords” in the ATLAS 550 User Manual for detailed
information on working with passwords. Security level 0 users
can view and edit every available field. Security level 5 users can
view any field but cannot edit.
