TEL - Screen 1 (Status)
The first press of the TEL button will show the Tel Status screen. This gives the current status of
each of your ISDN B channels ("lines" 1 & 2). The most commonly seen status words are the
following (See Section 10 for additional information):
Ready – This indicates that this B channel has correctly initialized with the Telco and is able to
make and receive calls. The line is "idle".

ISDN TIP!
A false ready may be displayed if your Telco setting is incorrect (see below), or if SPIDs are
not entered when required.
If your ISDN circuit uses the National ISDN or DMS-Custom ISDN protocol, you must enter
Directory Numbers. An absent, or incorrect, Directory Number can prevent your Xstream
from receiving calls, despite being in the Ready state.
Connected – The line is currently dialed up to another unit. The number it is connected to (if
available), and the duration of the connection will be displayed.
