. . . Changing CAPI 2.0/ISDN performance in LapLink
43
To change CAPI 2.0/ISDN performance in LapLink:
1 On the Options menu, click Port Setup.
2 Under Port Settings, click CAPI.
3 Click the Configure button.
4 If you do not want LapLink to answer any incoming CAPI
2.0/ISDN calls, clear the Enable box under Auto Answer.
To answer calls to only one number, type the number in
this box: Accept Calls Only on the Following Numbers.
5 If you want to combine the two CAPI 2.0/ISDN channels for
faster connections, check the Enable box under Channel
Bonding.
Be sure that channel bonding is also enabled on the
computer you will connect to.
6 Customize the Timeout options as necessary.
The Callback Timeout, Callback Delay, and Redial Delay
settings are specified in seconds.
7 Click OK.
Answering calls
By default, LapLink is set up to answer all incoming CAPI
2.0/ISDN calls on both channels. You can modify this so
that it does not answer any of these calls or it answers calls
to just one of the channels.
TIP If you don’t want LapLink to answer any incoming
calls, clear the Enable box under Auto Answer; then make
sure that the Accept Calls Only on the Following Numbers
box is blank.
TIP When typing the number to accept calls to, use only
numerals; avoid characters like dashes, parentheses,
slants, and periods. When typing more than one number,
use a semicolon to separate them.
Channel bonding
CAPI 2.0/ISDN provides two channels that can be used for
LapLink communications. Each channel has a transmission
speed of 64 Kbps. By combining (“bonding”) these chan
-
nels, the transmission rate can double to 128 Kbps.
By default, LapLink does not use channel bonding, even
when both channels are available. This setting keeps trans
-
mission costs to a minimum for users who pay additional
fees for each channel connection.
For faster transmissions, enable channel bonding. When
both channels are available, LapLink can then transmit at
speeds up to 128 Kbps.
TIP Be sure to enable channel bonding on both comput-
ers. LapLink may not be able to make a connection
between them otherwise.
TIP When one channel is already in use, LapLink uses
the available channel to transmit at 64 Kbps, even when
channel bonding is enabled.
