Important Considerations
There are several considerations when using your codec in ISDN mode, including:
· Will you operate within North America or other countries?
· Will you use a single B channel or 2 B channels?
· Which network are you using?
· Is your ISDN line Point-to-Point or Point-to-Multipoint?
· What are your directory numbers (DN)?
· If you are in the US, what are your Service Profile ID (SPID) numbers?
· What is your Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) if you need to enter this outside North
America?
ISDN configuration is influenced by the country in which you operate. For example, a SPID does not
need to be entered into a Tieline codec for operation within Europe, but it does in North America.
U and S/T ISDN Interfaces
In North America the telephone company provides its BRI customers with a U interface. The U
interface is a two-wire (single pair) interface from the phone switch. It supports full-duplex data
transfer over a single pair of wires, therefore only a single device can be connected to a U interface.
The situation is different in Europe, the UK, most of Asia, Australia, Africa and parts of the Middle
East, where the phone company is allowed to supply the NT-1 and the customer is given an S/T
interface. The NT-1 is a relatively simple device that converts a 2-wire U interface into the 4-wire S/T
interface.
If you have an NT-1 device connected to the U interface line then you will require a Tieline ViA (ST)
ISDN module (S/T interface - model: TLISDNEUROVIA). If you don't have an NT-1 device installed
then the Tieline ViA (U) USA ISDN module (U interface - model: TLISDNUSAVIA) will be required.
You can ring your telecommunications provider to ask if you're not sure. Note: In Japan use the
Tieline ViA (ST) ISDN module.
Important Note: Tieline S/T ViA ISDN modules do not have internal terminating resistors.
When you connect terminating equipment such as a Tieline codec to an NT-1, 100 ohm
termination resistors must be connected between pins 3 and 6 and between pins 4 and 5
at the last socket on the ISDN line. Check your NT-1 device user manual as this may be
supported. Suppliers of electronic components sell suitable plugs with termination
resistors when required. Please note: U interface ISDN terminations do not require
terminating resistors.
How to Configure ISDN G5 Modules
To configure the codec to dial using ISDN for the first time:
1. Ensure that the correct country setting is configured in your codec via Home screen >
Settings
2. If you are dialing between two Tieline codecs
screen > Dialer
More advanced module and answering settings can also be configured:
a. Select Home screen > Settings
ISDN module settings specific to your codec site.
