network connection type

This field is used when the local AUDIX system attempts to call this remote AUDIX system for the
purpose of transmitting messages and updates.

This is the type of connection the AUDIX system will attempt to set up for the connection to the remote
AUDIX system.

— Enter

dcp

if this remote system is accessed using normal DCP channels (that is, AUDIX channels

1-4).

— Enter

rs232a

if this remote system is accessed using the RS-232 modems or data modules (unless

these channels use synchronous modem pooling somewhere in the link; then use

rs232s

).

— Enter

rs232s

if this remote system is accessed using direct RS-232 cabling.

data rate

This field is used when the local AUDIX system attempts to call this remote AUDIX system for the
purpose of transmitting messages and updates.

This is the data rate the AUDIX system will try to use for the call. The rate depends on the facilities
involved in the call:

— Enter

64000

if the remote system is colocated at the same switch as the local system.

— Enter

64000

if the switch’s Data Service 1 (DS1) interface to a T1 Carrier is used to call the

remote system.

— Enter

56000

if a 56 Kbps network is used.

— Enter

64000

if direct RS-232 cabling is used to a colocated system.

— Enter

19200

if modems (MNP mode) are used for switched RS-232.

— Enter

9600

if modems (fixed rate) are used for switched RS-232.

— Enter

19200

(asynchronous) if 7400A or 7400B data modules are used for RS-232 converted to

switched DCP mode 2.

— Enter

9600

if modems are used for DCP mode 2 (modem pooling).

channel

This field identifies which RS-232 channel is used when the local AUDIX system attempts to call this
remote AUDIX system for the purpose of transmitting messages and updates.

If one of the RS-232 channels is connected to this remote system, enter the number (5 or 6) of the
channel here. If both RS-232 channels are connected to this remote system, leave this field blank.

dial string

This field is used when the local AUDIX system attempts to call this remote AUDIX system for the
purpose of transmitting messages and updates. It will also be used whenever a connection test to this
remote system is performed from the local system.

On R1V3 and R1V4 systems, zero (0) to 30 characters can be entered. On R1V5 or later systems, zero
(0) to 65 characters can be entered. Permissible characters depend on the type of switch and/or modem
through which the AUDIX system is dialing.

The following are examples:
