Note:
To test the line later, you must have at least two switched channels. If you plan to
use a channel for drop-and-insert (D&I), you can enter it as Switched for the Quickstart
and then change it to D&I for the final installation.
For inband signaling, route incoming calls
If you using inband signaling, configure incoming call routing for the T1 line by setting the Ch
N # and Ch N Slot parameters as follows:
1
For each Ch N # parameter, enter the unique digits of the phone number used to reach this
channel.
For example, if your line is set up as illustrated in Figure 3-2 on page 3-3, enter 1111 for
the first 12 channels, and 2222 for the last 12 channels.
2
For each T1 channel that will answer analog calls, set the Ch N Slot parameters to the
number of the slot that contains the modem card.
For example, if the modem card is in slot 5, set Ch 1 Slot=5, Ch 2 Slot=5, and so on, up to
the total number of analog calls you want the MAX to accept on this T1 line. These
settings tell the MAX to route incoming analog calls to the digital modem card.
3
For each T1 channel that will answer digital calls, set the Ch N Slot parameters to 9, the
default number of the slot that contains the MAX unit’s bridge/router module. These
settings tell the MAX to route incoming digital calls to the bridge/router module, to be
bridged or routed to their destination.
Save the Line N profile
At this point, you have configured a line and are ready to save its profile, as follows:
1
Press the Left-Arrow or Escape key to exit the Line 1 profile.
A confirmation menu appears:
EXIT?
>0=ESC (Don’t exit)
1=Exit and discard
2=Exit and accept
2
Press 2 to save and exit.
For ISDN signaling, route incoming modem calls
If you are using ISDN signaling, you must perform the following steps to configure incoming
call routing:
1
To tell the MAX how to route incoming modem calls, from the Main Edit Menu select the
slot that contains the digital modem cards–for example, 50-000 V.34 Modem.
The slot’s menu appears:
50-000 V.34 Modem
50-100 Mod Config
50-200 Modem Diag
