an ISDN telephone requires a six-digit SPID and has a DN of 73, its SPID 
is 007300. If the same TE requires a minimum of 10 digits, the SPID is 
0000007300. 
Most ISDN terminals require a five-digit SPID. An ISDN computer card 
usually requires a 10-digit SPID. Follow the directions that come with the 
ISDN device to program it with a SPID and ISDN DN.

ISDN router
By connecting an ISDN router to your Compact ICS, a group of computers

each computer occasionally uses an Internet connection.
To support Internet access, you must order BRI lines from your service 
provider, and subscribe to Internet service from an Internet service 
provider (ISP). Your computers must have an Internet browser and any

Networking with Norstar
In addition to public network connections, Norstar Compact ICS can be 
integrated into an existing private network or to other Norstar systems to 
form a corporate telecommunications network.
The big picture
Norstar uses enhanced trunking to join other Norstar or customer 
equipment in a private network. Authorized users can also access central 
office lines and Norstar features from outside their Norstar system.

Trunks and target lines
Trunks are external lines that provide the physical connection between a 
Norstar system and other systems in a private or public network. Norstar 
Compact ICS supports two different types of trunks:
Loop start trunks handle incoming and outgoing calls between Norstar 
and the public network. They are numbered 001-004 and 031-034.
BRI trunks handle incoming and outgoing calls between Norstar and 
an ISDN...

a line pool access code
a remote feature code from a DTMF telephone
To place an outgoing call, a loop start line can be selected by pressing a line 
button on the telephone, by dialing a...

receiving data, images, text and voice information. Using BRI lines allows
