Calls and Testing for the
Protocols

Introduction

Issue 2 - 05/00
This chapter describes the call setup and testing
functions for the National ISDN, AT&T and Northern
Telecom protocols.
For information on non-protocol specific call and testing
functions, see Chapter 6.
The chapter covers both Basic rate (BRI) and Primary
rate (PRI) functionality. The main difference between BRI
and PRI screens is that the F2 (channel selection)
function key, when available, shows B1/B2 in BRI mode
and CH in PRI mode. Also, in BRI mode, the F5 (SPID
selection) function key lets you swap between SPID 1 and
SPID 2 (the one that is currently selected is displayed on
the first line of the screen).
All the functions described in this chapter are accessed by
choosing ISDN CALL SETUP or AUTO TEST in the MAIN
menu.
Calls can be in progress on both B1 and B2 channels
simultaneously, but only one channel can be controlled
(set up or cleared) at any one time.
Calls can be in progress on all 23 B channels (47 for
NFAS) simultaneouslys, but only one channel can be
controlled (set up or cleared) at any one time.
For voice calls, the called party would be another TE
connected to the network.
