This drop-down box allows the operator to select either Simplex or Duplex
communications for the circuit. (Duplex is the default setting.)
• Simplex – this type of circuit provides one-way communications.
• Duplex – this type of circuit provides two-way communications.
Note: An internal node (such as an SNM-1010/1010L) cannot function as the “From/A”
side of a simplex call.

This option group allows the operator to select either Normal or High Priority
status for the circuit. (Normal is the default setting.)
• Normal – this circuit type will have normal status, when compared with all
other
circuits.
• High Priority – this circuit type will preempt normal priority circuits if a
shortage of available bandwidth occurs. In this situation, the Normal
priority circuit will be terminated, and the High Priority circuit will be
established at the upper limit of the bandwidth on the transponder.
Click the Delete button to delete a selected call. Note: Call must be disabled before
deleting.
Point-to-Point calls are activated and deactivated by the Enable and Disabled buttons.
