Monitoring ISDN Line Usage
 
After you have first configured the unit for use with 
 
ISDN, it is important to monitor ISDN line usage to 
 
ensure that the unit is working in the way you expect.
 
Check the ISDN 1 and ISDN 2 LEDs to ensure that 
 
unexpected calls are not being made or that 
 
connections are not remaining open when you 
 
expect them to have closed.
 
Even if the ISDN Utilization LEDs are not lit, call with 
 
little or no data transfer may be in progress depending 
 
on how you have connected or configured the unit. 
 
As in a conventional telephone call, charges are made 
 
regardless of what is sent down the line until the call is 
 
dropped.
 
If you want to ensure that ISDN line usage is limited, 
 
set up ISDN Timebands or set the 
 
Maximum Call 
 
Duration
 
 parameter. See the 
 
Software Reference
 
 guide 
 
for more information on these features.
 
Setting Up a WAN Link

Before you power on the unit, connect an

For more information about suitable cables, see
