If your service provider tells you that the switch type is an AT&T
5ESS Custom Point-to Point with software version 6 or earlier,
you cannot enter a SPID and ID number since these are not
supported. Since SPID and ID numbers are not entered, you
must tell the
RoadRunner
not to look for them, by setting Local
Check to NONE, using the menu sequence
<TA101><Setup><Lcl Chk><None>
or the
CLC
command.
If your service provider says your 5ESS switch is running
software version 5E9.1 in Custom Point-to-Point configuration,
they may give you SPID numbers. On the
RoadRunner
, select
switch type 5E8,
do not
enter the SPID numbers, but enter the ID
numbers and local check values. A TA reset may or may not
result in a “SP1 BAD SP2 BAD” message.
When dialing, ‘1 +
area code’ dialing is required, even for local calls.
If your service provider says your 5ESS switch is running
software version 5E9.1 in National ISDN configuration, you must
contact MUSICAM USA technical support.
Service Provider ID (SPID) Number (North America Only)
For
most
areas in North American, the TA must be told the SPID
number of the
calling
ISDN line; that is, the line connected to the
RoadRunner
. The ISDN service provider in your area provides this
number.
It is important to remember that every time the
RoadRunner
is moved, or whenever there is a change in the ISDN line, or even
area code changes, the SPID and ID number, switch type and
possibly other parameters for the TA setup must be updated.
You
can store up to 20 ISDN SPID and location configurations for later
recall.
To set the SPID number using the keypad, go down the branch
<TA101><Setup><SPID>
select the ‘B’ channel number, 1 or 2, and enter the provided SPID
number. Please note that each TA supports 2 basic rate ISDN ‘B’
channels, so if your service provider gave you two SPID numbers, you
must enter both of them, one for each ‘B’ channel. Use the
CSI
command to set the SPID number from a terminal.
