If YES was selected in Figure 25 (i.e., same number for all ports), the wizard asks for the 
number to correspond to all ports (Figure 26). If NO was answered in Figure 25, then a port 
number must be specified for each port. The screen in Figure 27 appears for each of the ports.

After completing the Wizard questions, the following screen prompts, “Would you like to quit 
now?” (refer to Figure 30). Selecting YES will result in the appearance of the System Status 
screen. Selecting NO will display a previous screen of the Wizard.

MANAGING Discovery IP CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
The configuration interface consists of three steps. The first step includes general Discovery IP
 
settings. The second step includes specifications of mapping address (and autodial number if 
applicable), as well as interface-specific port configuration. The third step involves the user 
confirming changes to the configuration, and restarting the Discovery IP machine in order for 
the new configuration to take effect. At the end of each step, the user may Restore Defaults 
(cancel changes to configuration), or Proceed to the next step (submit the changes), by selecting 
the appropriate option.
To view the configuration of each Discovery IP machine:
1. From the System Status screen, type C, then select System Configuration (refer to Figure 
31
).

†Number of Lines:  
Enter the number of telephone lines connected to the Discovery IP 
machine.
†Frames per packet:
  Controls quality of speech transmission for varying qualities of 
network connections. As the quality of the line deteriorates, the number of frames per

Discovery IP unit is situated on the trunk side of a telco switch, this setting should be set 
to Default (by entering nothing). If there is a need to adjust the default voice volume 
through the Discovery IP (if situated on trunk side), try setting it to 0
 first.
ˆDiscovery IP is set to 0 from the factory. If the Discovery IP unit is initialized, or the 
software is reloaded, this setting should be changed back to 0
.
†Local prefix:  
Enter local area code.Autodial: 
Valid only if NOMAP was selected as 
Gateway type. The autodial number is the number that should automatically be dialed out 
of the destination Discovery IP.
†Account Status Message:  
When enabled (only if AMAS is used) callers into this 
Discovery IP will hear a recording (phone bank) detailing the amount of time remaining 
before their balance runs out, a restricted period approaching, or when a maximum length 
of call is reached.

†Fax Mode:
  Select Disabled or G711 (T38 is not yet available with Discovery IP software 
release 2.28). When a Discovery IP is in Disabled mode, faxes attempted to be sent 
through it (as either origination or destination) will fail. In G711 mode, codec for that port 
will switch to G711 for the duration of a call detected to be a fax.
†Fax preload:
  Enter the number of buffers that should smooth the transition of the 
outbound queue between voice-transmission mode and fax mode. Enter values ranging 
from 1 through 32, or enter 0 to select the default value of 20.

†Autodial
: Enter the number which will automatically be dialed for calls mapped to this IP 
location. Not specifying an autodial number causes the destination Discovery IP phone 
line to go offhook (FXS line at destination Discovery IP will ring).
†IP Address to send calls to:
 When NOMAP is selected as the gateway type, this setting 
specifies which Discovery IP should be the destination box for calls originating at this 
Discovery IP.
†Gatekeeper IP Address:
 This address specifies the location of the Gatekeeper and billing 
services when the gatekeeper is the selected gateway type.
†Line Configuration:
 Depending on the interface type specified in Step 1, the following 
needs to be specified for each port on the Discovery IP system.
