CHAPTER 9: Configuring Dial Options
Answer Always: If enabled, the answer unit answers any incoming call regardless
of failed conditions.
Weekend Lockout: If enabled, no backup will occur from midnight Friday to
midnight Sunday.
NOTE
Weekend and daily lockout apply to automatic DBU only. Manual DBU
is not affected. Also, this parameter affects the originate end only. The
answer end remains DBU-capable at all times.
Daily Lockout: Enable/disable the daily lockout specified by the fields Enable
Hour and Disable Hour.
Lockout Start: Enter the hour that the daily lockout begins and dial backup is
disabled (0 to 23). Only applies if the Daily Lockout parameter is ENABLED.
Lockout End: Enter the hour that the daily lockout ends and dial backup is
reactivated (0 to 23). Only applies if the Daily Lockout parameter is ENABLED.
Auto Restore
Once the DDS circuit is down, the CSU/DSU MS DBU remains in backup until the
DDS circuit is active for the length of time specified for the restore timer. The
selection is entered in minutes (up to 255). If the restore timer is set to 0, the DDS
must be restored manually. The factory-default setting is 1 minute.

Redial Counter
This option sets the number of times the CSU/DSU MS DBU re-dials the far end
when entering backup mode. The redial count, which is manually entered, can be
up to a maximum of 99 attempts. If the CSU/DSU MS DBU encounters a busy or
reorder, it attempts to establish the call the specified number of times. The factory-
default setting is 5.
