The DIVA Terminal Adapters Program for Windows 95/98/NT

General Tab

The General tab allows you to configure your location as well as the protocol you wish to use.

If your DIVA T/A does not have phone ports, this is also where you specify your ISDN directory numbers. For DIVA T/A models with phone ports, this tab allows you to enable or disable individual ports; directory numbers are specified in the Phone Port tabs (see page 41).

Of the screen captures shown below, the first one is the ‘General’ tab for devices with phone ports; the second one is for devices that do not have phone ports.

Country

This setting ensures that the correct options specific to your country are used. If your country is not listed, select ‘Other’ and default options will be used.

Data

The data protocol must match the remote ISDN device to which you are going to connect. Your options are ‘PPP’, ‘MultiLink PPP’, ‘MultiLink PPP with BACP’, ‘MultiLink PPP with AODI’, ‘V.110’, and ‘V.120’.

Setting Description

PPP‘PPP’ operates on a single ISDN channel. Since two ISDN channels are available, the DIVA T/A can support two PPP connections at the same time. This is useful if you need to have two connections running concurrently. For example, you could use one channel to maintain a connection to the Internet, and another to connect to a remote corporate network. Or perhaps you wish to support incoming data calls, as a PPP connection will never be disconnected to allow an incoming or outgoing analog call. Note that if two PPP connections are active, no analog calls can be made.
