4 Specify the Group number for the nailed channels.
5 Set the FT1 Caller parameter to Yes to specify that the MAX unit initiates the call.
If the other end of the link initiates the call, set this parameter to No. Only one side of the
link can initiate the call for FT1-AIM or FT1-B&O calls.
6 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
7 Open the Port Config profile, which in this case is Host/AIM6 > Port1 Menu > Port
Config.
8 Set the Idle and Dial parameters to specify how the switched channels connect.
These settings must be the same in the device at each end of the link. The settings shown
beginning with step 1 above connect the switched channels when the host equipment at
both ends sets DTR active. As an alternative, the settings for the second Host/AIM6
profile in the “Example of a FT1-B&O call” connect the channels at power-up.
9 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.

Configuring a single-channel call
The following procedure provides a connection between two terminal adaptors connected to
two AIM ports on the MAX unit. A call between AIM ports on the same unit remains entirely
local. The MAX does not use any WAN channels. To configure a single-channel port-to-port
call:
1 Open a call profile in the Host/AIM6 (Host/Dual) > Port3 Menu > Directory menu.
2 Set the Dial # parameter to specify a value in a special three-digit format.
(For more information, see “Configuring outbound calls” on page 3-69.)
3 Set the Call Type parameter to specify a single-channel call type.
4 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
