It's important to note that this information may be different for each line--even the switch type(s) may vary between lines and/or locations! - Switch type (AT&T 5E, NI-1, etc.) and/or D-Channel Protocol (1TR6, EDSS-1, etc.). In North America: Make sure your provider gives you explicit information regarding National ISDN-1. It's not uncommon for the provider to identify the switch type according to manufacturer and model number (Northern TeleCom DMS-100), but neglect to mention that National ISDN-1 software is running on the switch. - If it's a Northern TeleCom switch, your provider should verify that EKTS is disabled (=No). - If it's a National ISDN-1 switch, your provider should verify that EKTS is set to Basic or None. - Number of Logical Terminals (typically 1 or 2). - Multipoint or Point-to-Point service; multiple Logical Terminal and SPIDs per BRI line usually indicates Multipoint service. - The "DN" Directory (phone) Number assigned to each Logical Terminal. - The SPID assigned to each Logical Terminal. Information required from provider to make a call: - The protocol subscribed to on each B Channel (B1 and B2). This will be Circuit Switched Data (CSD) and/or Circuit Switched Voice (CSV) on either or both channels. In Europe: Make sure your provider gives you explicit information which D-Channel protocol is being used for your Service. Most commonly, the so called "Euro-ISDN" standard will get used, also referred to as EDSS-1, ISDN-2, VN5 or more generic NET 3. If your connection is not direct to the public ISDN Network but through a PBX system (Switchboard), please make sure your PBX is able to provide a full ISDN BRI emulation according to the protocol standard and is programmed to allow unlimited access to the ISDN line in Data mode. - The telephone number(s) of your ISDN BRI If you want to address different ISDN devices on the same ISDN Bus, you will need to have a subaddressing scheme. For example, you can address multiple devices under the Euro-ISDN protocol by using the so called MSN's (Multiple Subscriber Numbers). Make sure you get an adequate amount of MSN's and their numbers from your ISDN Provider. Under the 1TR6 protocol, you can assign the EAZ (Endgeraete Ausscheide Ziffer) yourself by adding one extra digit to your telephone number (Attention: EAZ may not be "0" or "9"). - Point-to-Multipoint or Point-to-Point service; Normally , our products require the Multipoint service. ========================================================================== GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - Please note the following two points before proceeding ========================================================================== 1.
