ADMINISTERING THE SWITCH FOR MODEM POOLING

This section describes switch administration for a System 75, System 85, or DEFINITY Generic 1, Generic 2, or Generic 3.

If you are adding modem pool members, fill in the following before starting. For System 75, System 75 XE, Generic 1, Generic 2 (universal module), and Generic 3, locate the TN circuit packs shown below. For System 85 and Generic 2 (traditional module), locate the SN packs:

∙TN754 or SN270B connected to MTDM-1 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN754 or SN270B connected to MTDM-2 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN754 or SN270B connected to MTDM-3 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN754 or SN270B connected to MTDM-4 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN742/TN746B or SN243B connected to 2296A-1 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN742/TN746B or SN243B connected to 2296A-2 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN742/TN746B or SN243B connected to 2296A-3 ____________________ (equipment location)

∙TN742/TN746B or SN243B connected to 2296A-4 ____________________ (equipment location)

NOTE

On System 75, Generic 1, or Generic 3, lines (or stations) and trunks can reside on the same board for analog circuits. For digital circuits, lines and trunks should not reside on the same pack or the modem-pool setup may experience difficulty.

On System 85 or Generic 2, only modem-pooling trunks can be assigned to one analog or digital board (you cannot mix trunks and lines for modem-pooling circuits).

System 75, Generic 1, and Generic 3 Administration

Use the following steps to administer the switch for modem pooling:

1.Using change system-parameters feature, set Off-Premises Tone Detect Timeout Interval to 25 seconds.

2.Using add modem-pool next (for System 75 or Generic 1) or add modem-pool xxxx (for Generic 3, where xxxx is the next available number), set Group Type to combined and press

ENTER . The screen will be filled in as shown in Figure 11-8,System 75, Generic 1, and Generic 3 Modem Pool Assignments.

Make the entries as shown. Analog and digital assignments correspond to the equipment locations of the TN742 or TN746B and the TN754 circuits, respectively. When all entries are made, press

ENTER .
