ISDN TA/V
Now that you’ve configured the serial port of your PC to match the
requirements of the Terminal Adaptor; and the physical connections between
your PC, the DTE interface, and the ISDN network are correctly made, you’re
ready to complete your first call via the ISDN TA/V.
7.1 Dialing via the Communication Software Menu Structure
While running your communication software, select the
DIAL
menu option
(refer to your software’s manual for instructions on dialing a call) and enter
the number of the remote computer service to be dialed.
7.2 Monitoring the Call
The current status of your ISDN TA/V is displayed on its front-panel LCD.
During a dialing sequence the display will read:
DIALING xxxxxxxxx
followed by
REMOTE RING
or
CALL FAILED
depending on the state of the line.
When making a call, the ISDN TA/V behaves much the same way as a human
telephone user. It connects to the line, dials the number, and then listens for
a response. If the unit hears an engaged tone, or doesn’t get an answer within
a configurable time period, it hangs up.
When a call is answered, the connecting line is evaluated for protocols such
as V.110 rate adaption, error correction, data compression, etc. Once this
evaluation is completed, the outcome is reported back to the computer in
the form of a coded message. The front-panel LCD reports the line speed,
accompanied by a statement of the error correction type in use.
