ALLS
When the ISDN TA/V is configured with auto-answer enabled on DTR (as it
is in the factory-default configuration), as long as DTR is present on the DTE
interface (the ISDN TA/V’s
TERMINAL 1
LED is lit) the unit will answer any
call that is incoming on the line irrespective of whether it is carrying voice or
data traffic. All voice calls will automatically be directed to the telephone
handset socket, and all data calls will be sent to the DTE interface.
7.8 Where to Go From Here
Now that you know the basics of how to use your ISDN TA/V, you are unlikely
to need to know much more to get maximum performance from it. This is
because your communication software performs most of the tasks for you. To
answer any questions that you may have, and to help you with any problems
relating to the unit’s configuration, the ISDN TA/V’s Reference section
contains all of the detailed information relating to its operating
characteristics.
