Quick Start: Connecting Quickly Using Manual
Default Profiles
Getting connected quickly with
T
ieline
codecs is a three step process that has been
simplified with the new codec menu structure. These three steps can be broken down
into:
1.
Set codec audio configurations settings;
2.
Select the profile you wish to connect with; and
3.
Use the
T
ieline
codec wizard to change any connection settings.
This process is the same for all profiles and applies to both manual default profiles
and custom profiles. Descriptions of how to connect quickly and successfully, using
the default profiles programmed into your codec, follow in the sections ahead. If you
require information about how your
T
ieline
codec operates, i.e. how to navigate
through menus and how to dial, please see the Operation of Your Codec section in
the main reference manual for each
T
ieline
codec.
WARNING for Installation of Modules
If you are installing or uninstalling any module, please ensure that the codec is not
powered up during the installation process. If possible use anti-static precautions to
help minimize the chances of static charges damaging the highly sensitive circuitry.
Do not force a module into the codec. Modules should be installed slowly and gently.
WARNING:
Ensure that both the local and remote codecs are connected correctly
before use. If you plug a digital PBX line into the RJ11 connector in a POTS module
or into the RJ 45 connector in an ISDN module, permanent damage may result from
the high voltage pulses digital systems generate.
IMPORTANT ISDN CONNECTION INFORMATION
SPID1, SPID2 (Service Profile ID): Users outside North America please leave the
SPID1 and SPID2 blank. North American users need to get SPID (Service profile ID)
numbers from the phone company and enter them exactly as supplied.
DN1, DN2 and MSN Numbers: (Directory Numbers and Multiple Subscriber
Numbers) A Directory Number is the ISDN number assigned to each B channel of
an ISDN line. In North America, users must get DNs from the phone company.
These must be entered exactly as provided. In most other locations MSN numbers
are used when more than one unit is on the line and will be allocated by the Telco.
A Cautionary Note: You usually need to enter DNs with an area code (10 digits),
while some other ISDN devices may only require 7 digit numbers. If your switch type
is an AT&T 5ESS custom point-to-point, you may need to leave both
DN
s blank -
even though they have been provided by the phone company. If you are using your
codec in places where MSN numbers (Multiple Subscriber Numbers) are used, enter
the MSN number in the DN1 and DN2 menu in the codec
.
