EAGLE - ANNEX A.2. ISDN NATIONAL-1 communications guide (USA) 57
3.1.3.- PROTOCOL Configuration
SETUP->TA CONFIG-> ISDN X <*>-> PROTOCOL -> NATIONAL-1 <*>
EUROISDN < >
This defines the protocol used by the Terminal Adapter. There are two options: the NATIONAL-
1, which is the one most used in the USA, and the EUROISDN, which is the standard protocol in
Europe.
When the National-1 protocol is configured, the line status will go through several stages before
reaching “Ready.” First it will show “Inactive,” indicating that the line is in the process of
activation, then it will show “SPID pending,” indicating that the line has been activated and is in
the process of sending the SPID’s; and finally, it will show “Ready” if the SPID has been sent
correctly, or “SPID error” if the exchange did not recognize the SPID.
When the EUROISDN protocol is configured, the line status will go directly to “Ready”.
If the EUROISDN protocol is configured by mistake on a line with National-1 protocol, the line
status will go directly to “Ready” (it will not go through the SPID-sending stages) and the unit will
not work properly (incoming calls may work but not outgoing ones, calls may work on one
channel but not on the other, etc.).
3.1.4.- NUMBER LINE 1 and NUMBER LINE 2
SETUP-> TA CONFIG-> ISDN X <*>-> NUMBER LINE 1 -> "Number Channel 1”
SETUP-> TA CONFIG-> ISDN X <*>-> NUMBER LINE 2 -> "Number Channel 2”
These define the Directory Numbers (DN’s) for each of the ISDN line’s channels. If the National-
1 protocol is being used, their configuration is mandatory. If EUROISDN is being used, their
configuration is optional (they can be left blank). If a number is programmed for a certain
channel, that channel will only respond to incoming calls made to that number.
If these numbers are programmed incorrectly, the unit will allow outgoing calls but will not
receive calls.
Note: In the USA, the directory number to be programmed in the terminal should not contain the
area code, i.e., only the seven-digit local number should be used.
SPID LINE 1 and SPID LINE 2 (only for NATIONAL-1 protocol)
TA CONFIG-> ISDN U <*>-> PROTOCOL-> NATIONAL-1-> SPID LINE 1 = "Number”
TA CONFIG-> ISDN U <*>-> PROTOCOL-> NATIONAL-1-> SPID LINE 2 = "Number”
These define the SPID’s for each of the channels. The SPID’s are associated with each of the
channels and are provided by the phone company. Usually, the SPID’s are made up of the
“area code + directory number + 0101,” but there may be many other variations, so it is
important to get these from the phone company.
If the SPID’s are programmed incorrectly, the line status will show “SPID error” and the unit will
not allow calls to be made.
