Note: You can change the First DS0 Channel number, which has a valid range from one to the maximum number minus the number of active channels. If the number of active DS0 channels is 24 (maximum), First DS0 Channel is hidden.

If Automatic is chosen, the attenuation of the transmission will be set to match the receiving signal level.
