Configuring Voice 13-11
SLT Time-out
is the time the local Voice port will wait before an actual fax transmission begins. If
there is no fax tone when this timer expires, the connection will be terminated.
Link Down Busy
enables (if Y ) or disables (if N ) automatic busy-out of channels when the link is down.
When this parameter is enabled, the system will automatically busy-out channels
when the composite link is down. When disabled, channels remain on-hook with the
link is down. If your application is connected to a PBX that can route calls to an
alternate source (e.g., an ACD) based on an "all busy" condition, enable this parameter
so the PBX will recognize this condition and reroute the calls while the composite link
is down.
This parameter affect on-hook channels only when the link-down condition
occurs. Active calls remain in progress until they return to on-hook.
Fax Supported
specifies whether or not faxes will be transmitted on the port. If N , all calls will be
treated as voice. If Y , both voice and fax will be transmitted
In most cases, this parameter should be enabled, to allow both voice and fax calls can
be processed.
If a voice call experiences excessive noise while this parameter is enabled,
the SmartSwitch 1800 might interpret it as fax call. Disabling this
parameter will cause the call to be treated as voice regardless of noise con-
ditions.
Telephony Interface Type
specifies (in conjunction with Interface ) the type of interface that will be used by the
Voice channel. Appendix C contains more information about selecting the appropriate
interface.
If E&M is specified, you must also set Switch 2 on the front of the SmartSwitch (see
Figure 13-6) as shown in Table 13-5 to select an E&M type.

Remember that the Voice port labeled as 1 is configured in the
database as port 4, and Voice port 2 is configured as port 5.
