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.
