5 From the main menu, click Voice Channels and the Channel Setup dialog box is displayed.
The three tabs in this dialog box define the channel interface, voice coder, fax parameters,
and regional telephone parameters for each channel.
Configure each channel for the type of interface you are connecting to. The Interface tab
defaults to Channel 1 in the Select Channel group. To change the channel number, click on
the down arrow for the Select Channel and a drop-down menu appears with all the channels
displayed. Highlight the channel number you want to configure.
6 The Interface group defaults to FXS (Loop Start). Select the interface option to correspond to
the interface type being connected to the Voice/Fax connector on the back panel of the
MultiVOIP.
If you are connecting a station device, e.g., analog telephone, fax machine, or Key Telephone
System (KTS) to the Voice/Fax connector on the back of the unit, then  the FXS (Loop Start)
will likely be the correct Interface option.
If the station device uses ground start, then chose FXS (Ground Start) option. Refer to the
device’s user documentation.
If you are using an extension from your PBX, then chose FXO option. Check with your in-
house telephone personnel to verify connection type.
If you chose an FXO interface, then the Dialing Options Regeneration group is enabled.
Check with your local in-house telephone personnel to verify whether your local PBX dial
signaling is Pulse or tone (DTMF). Set the Regeneration option accordingly.  
						

							34 MultiVOIP 200 User Guide
For FXO-to-FXO communications, you can enable a specific type of FXO Disconnect -- either
current loss, tone detection, or silence detection (Check with your in-house phone person-
nel to verify the preferred type of disconnect to use). For tone detection, you can select from
drop-down lists either one or two tones that will cause the line to be disconnected; the person
hanging up a call must then hit the key(s) that will produce those tones. For silence detec-
tion, select One Way or Two Way, then set the timer for the number of seconds of silence
before disconnect.
Note: the default value of 15 seconds may be shorter than desired for your application.
If you are connecting to an analog E&M trunk on your PBX, then choose the E&M option.
If you choose the E&M interface, then the E&M Options group is enabled.  Check with your
local in-house telephone personnel to determine if the signaling is Dial Tone or Wink and if the
connection is 2-wire or 4-wire. If Wink signaling is used, then the Wink Timer is enabled with a
default of 250 milliseconds. The range of the Wink Timer is from 100 to 350 milliseconds.
Consult with your local in-house telephone personnel for this timer setting.
If you want to dedicate a voice/fax channel to a point-to-point configuration, i.e., the device on
a local channel can call only a device on a remote MultiVOIP channel, click on the Auto Call
Enable option in the Auto Call group. Then enter the phone number of the remote MultiVOIP
in the Phone Number field.
7 Repeat the above step to configure the interface type for voice/fax Channel 2.
8 The Voice/Fax tab displays the parameters for the voice coder, faxing, DTMF gain for FXO
interface, billing charges for inbound and/or outbound calls, password authentication on
inbound and/or outbound calls, and auto disconnect which limits call duration.
9 To change the voice coder, first select the channel by clicking the Select Channel down arrow
and highlighting the channel number, then click the Voice Coder down arrow and highlight
your new voice coder entry.
If you changed the voice coder, ensure that the same voice coder is used on the voice/fax
channel you are calling; otherwise, you will always get a busy signal.  
						

							35 Chapter 3 - Software Loading and Configuration
10 If you selected the FXO interface and are using Touchtone dialing, you can set up the DTMF
gain (or output level in decibels - dB) for the higher and lower frequency groups of the DTMF
tone pair. Make your selections in the drop-down lists in the DTMF Gain group. Note: Only
change the DTMF gain under the direction of Multi-Tech Technical Support supervision.
11 The Fax option enables you to send and receive faxes on the selected voice/fax channel. You
can set the maximum baud rate for faxes in the drop-down list in the Fax group. If you do not
plan to send or receive faxes on a given voice/fax channel, you can disable faxes in the Fax
group.
12 You can set up billing options for inbound and/or outbound calls by checking them in the
Billing Options group and then typing in the charge in cents per x seconds.
13 Password protection can be enabled for outbound and/or inbound calls on the selected voice/
fax channel. If you enable password Authentication on inbound or outbound calls, you need
to also enter a password of up to 14 numeric characters in the Password field.
A user attempting to access the voice/fax channel will be repeatedly prompted with a series of
two short tones. At this point they must enter the password from their dtmf keypad to access
the voice/fax channel.
14 The Automatic Disconnect option limits call duration to the number of seconds entered in the
Timer: (sec) field. The default value of 15 seconds can be changed to any other value up to
65,535 (roughly 18.2 hours).
Note: After configuring a given channel (1 or 2), you can copy that channel’s configuration to
the other channel by clicking the Copy button. Everything on the Voice/Fax tab will be copied
to the other channel.

Phase 3:  Deploy the VOIP Network
Phase 3 involves the VOIP Administrator developing the VOIP Dialing Directory and deploying the
pre-configured slave MultiVOIPs to their remote sites. The remote site administrators need only
connect power to the pre-configured MultiVOIP, connect it to their Ethernet LAN and predefined
telephone equipment, and then wait for the phone directory database to be downloaded.
Perform the following procedure to deploy your VOIP network.
VOIP Administrator
1 Establish your VOIP Dialing Directory based on your Phone Directory Database for the
numbers to connect the MultiVOIP’s to your VOIP network and the telephone extension
number you need to connect to the Voice/Fax channels. A sample VOIP Dialing Directory is
provided below for your consideration and use.

6 If you are connecting a station device (e.g., analog telephone, fax machine, or Key Telephone
System (KTS) to your MultiVOIP, connect the smaller end of a special adapter cable (sup-
plied) to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXS connector on the back of the MultiVOIP and the other
end to the station device.
If you are connecting a PBX extension to your MultiVOIP, connect the smaller end of a special
adapter cable (supplied) to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXO connector on the back of the
MultiVOIP and the other end to the PBX extension.
If you are connecting an E&M trunk from a telephone switch to your MultiVOIP, connect one
end of an RJ-45 phone cord to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 E&M connector on the back of the
MultiVOIP and the other end to the trunk phone jack. See connector drawing in Appendix B.
If you are connecting to an E&M trunk, you need to ensure that the E&M trunk jumper is in the
correct position for the E&M type trunk. The default E&M jumper position is E&M type 2. To
change the E&M jumper position, perform the E&M jumper block positioning procedure.
7 Repeat the above step to connect the remaining telephone equipment to each Voice/Fax
Channel on your MultiVOIP.
8 Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by placing the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON
position. Wait for the BOOT LED on the MultiVOIP to go OFF before proceeding. This may
take a couple of minutes to go OFF.
