Configuring the Trap Mask

Pressing F5 allows you to change the current configuration of the trap
mask. It yields a popup menu with each of the status bits displayed
along with their current state (either ON or OFF). Use the UP and
DOWN arrow keys to highlight the desired bit and press F1 to toggle its
state. Pressing ENTER will record the changes. Pressing ESCAPE will
cancel this action and leave the mask unchanged. Selecting all bits has
the effect of trapping on every call, while turning them all off causes no
trapping to occur.

Configuring the Monitor Mode

Pressing F6 allows you to change the current configuration of the
monitor mode. It yields a popup menu with the current mode
checkmarked. Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the new
mode and press ENTER to record the change. Pressing ESCAPE will
cancel this action and leave the mode unchanged.
