Settings
ECHO CAN
Echo cancellation is used to prevent feedback disturbances on the parties line. The default is
set to disable.
GAIN
The gain for circuits can be set from this screen. Valued individual port gain settings are -15dB
to +7.5dB
logUNIT
This display-only field shows the logical unit assigned to this port, useful when using the all
ports sub-menu.
When a port is assigned to a bridge and saved, the three participants seen in Figure 20-4 are
now combined into an active bridge. This information is in turn reflected at the main bridge
screen as shown below in Figure 20-5 where the bridge in use reflects the three active
participants out of thirty-two possible.
The normal display of the individual user cards in use on a bridge will indicate their inclusion
on a bridge as a participant as seen in Figure 20-6 below. The information seen in the figure
below is noted as being bridge participants in the WAN/SRV field. The nomenclature is the
server slot location as the first two digits (1P, 2P or 3P), followed by the three-digit identifier
of the port. In the case of port 7 (which we have added to bridge 5), this port indicates it is in
use on the card in the first server slot (1P), and is assigned to the logical port number on the
server card slot to number 008. We can also see from this user card display that ports one and
two are also assigned to a bridge on the first server slot.
