7. If the card uses a T or NT loop, enter the following 
information, as supplied by your service provider: 
the SPID assigned to the loop
the number of B-channels associated with each SPID
the Network DNs used with the network SPID
the call type of the Network DN 
Repeat the programming for the second network SPID, if 
any.
If the T or NT loop is used for D-packet service: 
turn on the service
assign the appropriate S-loop mapping...

9. Provision the loops and lines , as appropriate, in 
Maintenance. Refer to Provisioning BRI and PRI lines on 
page 522.
10. If you are configuring auto-answer BRI trunks to map to 
target lines, program the received number for the target 
line to be the same as the Network DN supplied by your 
service provider. This setting is found under Lines.
Assign the ISDN lines and target lines to the appropriate 
ISDN DNs, which are the set of DNs...

Programming ISDN BRI lines
When the configuration programming under Hardware is 
complete, your BRI lines are ready to be programmed in the 
same way as analog lines. You can, for example, place them in 
pools and assign them to Norstar telephones, Business Series 
Terminals, or ISDN terminal equipment. 
However, there are some differences in the way BRI lines 
work that will influence how you configure them to handle 
incoming and...

Programming Direct Inward System Access (DISA) on PRI 
trunks
When a trunk cartridge is set to PRI, all lines on that trunk are 
set to Auto Answer without Direct Inward System Access 
(DISA). 
DISA can be accessed by one of two methods.
1) Define the DISA DN to match the trailing digits of the 
Called Party Number (CDN).
With Public, Private, and Tie service types, the CDN is 
simply truncated to the Target Line Receive Digit Length 
and...

A call presented to the Norstar system with service type 
FX and SID 2 will be handled as follows:
The ISDN setup message will specify FX with SID = 2
The FX SID = 2 will be mapped to DISA DN digits 1234
The call will be answered with DISA
Programming ISDN equipment
DTI cards configured as PRI support various applications that 
are enabled by PRI. For a list of the type of applications that 
are support, see ISDN applications on page...

The ISDN terminal equipment (TE) on the loop is also 
programmed with its ISDN DN. See the instructions that come 
with the ISDN device for information on how to program it to 
recognize the assigned DN. Most devices will require both a 
terminal service profile identifier (terminal SPID) and a DN, 
and some will require two terminal SPIDs and two ISDN DNs. 
The SPID used with the device should not be confused with a 
SPID used for network...

The following table uses the example in the illustration to 
show the programming for the S loop.
ISDN router
By connecting an ISDN router to your Modular ICS, a group 
of PCs can share Internet access. This arrangement is best for 
a workplace where each personal computer occasionally uses 
an Internet connection. 
To support Internet access, you must order BRI lines from 
your service provider, and subscribe to an Internet service 
from...

D-packet service (BRI cards only)
The D-packet service supplied by the Modular ICS supports a 
point-of-sale terminal adapter (POSTA). Connecting a 
POSTA allows transaction terminals, such as devices where 
you swipe credit or debit cards, to transmit information using 
the D channel of the BRI line. At the same time, the B channels 
of the BRI line remain available for voice and data calls. A 
special adapter links transaction equipment,...

POSTA for ISDN BRI
When you configure D-channel packet service, you are 
specifying the transmission path between an ISDN loop on the 
network side of the ICS and the ISDN loop on the telephone 
side. The telephone side loop is the loop used by the point-of-
sale terminal adapter. The service is turned on and configured 
using the network loop programming found under Hardware. 
Use NT loop for BRI-U2 and BRI-U4 cards and S or T loop 
for...
