Advanced Configuration – Switch Module
Although usually not required, the advanced features may be used to assist with
managing the Switch Module or trouble shooting voice or performance issues. The
following is a detailed description of the programming areas that would be considered
“advanced” to the proper operation of the Switch Module. Please consult the Advanced
Configuration section prior to contacting customer support should issues arise.
Advanced Port Setup
The Switch Module Port configuration screen is shown below:
Path:
Gateway->Configuration->Port
Figure 19: Switch Module – Port Configuration Screen
1. Port
Description
– The port description accepts 16 characters of text to identify the
user of a specific port. Typically the user’s name would be entered (i.e. John Smith).
2. Setting
a
User ID
– A User ID “maps” a specific port on the Remote Module to a
specific port on the Switch Module. When connecting to the 1100A Switch you require
a User ID. The default ID is 1 (representing the port number) on the Switch Module
side. This feature is typically used when connecting to one of Citel’s multi-user
devices such as a PBXgateway. If this remote is connecting to a multi-user device
refer to the
System Administrator’s Guide
of the PBXgateway for more information.
3. Setting a Connect
Password
– A connect Password restricts access to the telephone
port and is typically used in conjunction with the User ID feature. If the password is set
only on the Switch Module then the user will have to manually input the password
when connecting. If, however, a password is entered for a port on the Switch Module
and
Remote Module the user will not be required to take any action.
4. Configuring
the
Line Signaling
(Nortel Norstar PBX only) – On some installation
environments a clicking noise may be present in the audio path. This is caused by
errors in the duty cycle of the signaling wave form. This setting can be adjusted from 0
to 7. Some experimentation may be required to eliminate any audio issues that may
arise.
