Presentation

The Loop Start / Ground Start (LS/GS) board is also called Non Direct Dialing In (NDDI2-2)
board. It is an analog board which allows the Private Automatic Branch eXchange (PABX) to
be connected to most public networks. Furthermore, this board allows the PABX to be
connected to a pager system according to the ESPA standard.
The NDDI2-2 board can connect up to eight 2-wire analog lines. Lines 1 to 4 are processed on
the mother board and lines 5 to 8 are processed on the QATI-2 daughter board.
The NDDI2-2 board can handle the following optional daughter boards :
- Calling Line Identification Protocol Interface Adaptor (CLIPIA) board:
This board allows the line impedance to be modified to identify the caller and to detect the
metering pulses.
For more information on the CLIPIA board, see
Operation
- Tax Metering board:
This board is used to detect 12/16 KHz metering pulses.
For more information on the Tax Metering board, see
Detection Daughter Board
- Ground Start board:
This board is used to seize the line via the ground and to detect incoming calls via
grounding a line wire.
Note:
The Ground Start board is only available in the US market.
Each daughter board is dedicated to 4 network lines, i.e. 2 daughter boards are necessary to
handle 8 lines of an NDDI2-2 board.
