Hardware profile
To set the hardware profiles and improve your system efficiency use the
HW – HW
menu. The menu contains five different hardware profiles. For their benefits
profiles
and disadvantages see the table below.
Each VoIP card allocates 32 channels in hardware profile 0 and 64 channels in
all the other profiles. The PRI card always allocates 32 bus channels.
HW profile number – since different hardware profiles use different bus
frequencies, the new configuration saving system is switched into the service
mode and back automatically to bring the bus frequency changes into effect. The
bus clock can be 2, 4 or 8 MHz, which corresponds to 32, 64 nebo 128 extender
channels respectively. The count of extender channels available for calls is always
lower by 4 as one channel is normally occupied by signalling.
