Configuring a dual-port call

In a dual-port call, two inverse multiplexing ports on the MAX unit connect the call to the
serial host. The two ports are a primary port and a secondary port. However, the unit places the
two calls in tandem and clears the calls in tandem, and considers them a single call. The
following restrictions apply to dual-port connections:

•

The selected data service must be available end-to-end.

•

The answer number must be the same for both ports.

•

If trunk groups are in use, both channels of the call must be in the same trunk group.

In the following example, the Host interface profile must enable port pairing for dual-port
calls. (For details, see “Enabling dual-port calls” on page 3-52.) In addition, a T1 or E1 line has
two of its channels configured with the telephone number 1212 (a hunt group). To route the
call answered on the 1212 hunt group to the paired ports for a dual-port call:

Open Host/Dual > Port1 Menu > Port Config.

This is the Port profile for the primary port (Port 1).

Set the Ans 1# parameter to specify the hunt-group answer number.

Ans 1#=1212

Note:

Do not set the Ans # parameter for the secondary host port (Port 2).

Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.

To configure the dual-port call:

Open a call profile in the Host/Dual > Port1 Menu > Directory menu.

This is the call profile for the primary port (Port 1).

Set the Dial # parameter to specify the dial number of the remote codec. For example:
