ZEPHYR XPORT USER’S GUIDE

5.Move the cursor to the word Save (using <5> or <6>) and then press <SEL> to complete the editing process.

3.5The Xport's ISDN interface

Units with either of the ISDN interface options will display "Found ISDN card" shortly after startup. This is also displayed on the About screen.

hHOT TIP! When using an ISDN- equipped Xport on an analog (POTS) line you can force the unit into POTS mode by pressing <5> and <6> simultaneously when the "Found ISDN card" message is displayed. This will shorten startup time.

THE ISDN CONFIGURATION MENU

This menu will not be present if the ISDN option is not installed, or if the ISDN was not connected at the time of start up.

To configure the information about your ISDN circuit press <NAV> twice. Then, press the <6> key twice to highlight ISDN Setup. Now press <SEL> once.

•SPID

Users in the USA & Canada with Natl I- 1 and DMS Cust ISDN service should enter either of their SPIDs here. Your Telco should have provided you your SPID numbers for your ISDN circuit. The format is often XXXYYYZZZZ0101 (where XXX is the area code, YYYZZZZ is the 7 digit telephone number).

If you are using ETS 300 (Euro ISDN, used throughout the world), INS 64 (used in Japan), or AT&T Cust PTP (sometimes used in the USA) ISDN service, you should leave this field blank.

•MSN/DN

The use of these fields depends on the type of ISDN to be used.

Natl I- 1 and DMS Cust. Protocol (used in the USA and Canada): enter the 7- digit telephone number associated with the SPID entered above here.

INS 64, or AT&T Cust PTP ISDN Protocol: leave this field blank.

ETS 300 (Euro ISDN): you may enter a "Multiple Subscriber Number" or "MSN" here. This is optional, and may be used if you are sharing the ISDN with another device.

•Telco

This configures the Xport to operate with the particular type of ISDN line that may be connected. This is the ISDN "Protocol" or "Switch Type" and must be configured properly for the ISDN to function properly. ETS300 is used in most of the world including Europe, INS 64 is used in Japan, and AT&T Cust. PTP, DMS Cust. and Natl.I- 1 are used in the USA (Natl.I- 1 is used most commonly).

Once you are done setting this item, the Xport will prompt you to reboot.
