Switch
Type
If your switch type is not currently shown, press the space bar to change to the next
switch; repeat until you see the correct switch type. The Prestige will not be able to
place or to receive calls if the wrong switch type is specified. If you are not sure, contact
your telephone company to confirm the exact switch type.
In general, this will be Switch/Switch (the default). If you are only using one B channel
(e.g., your Prestige is sharing the ISDN BRI line with another device), then select
Switch/Unused. If you’re second B channel is a leased line, select Switch/Leased.
Press the [Space bar] to toggle through all the options. These options are

Telephone
Number(s)
Enter the telephone number(s) assigned to your ISDN line by your telephone company.
Some switch types only have one telephone number. For North America, these phone
numbers should be in a standard seven-digit format (for example, 5551212). Note that
the Prestige only accepts digits; please do not include ‘-’ and spaces in this field. This
field should be no longer than 25 digits.
Incoming
Analog
Call.
This tells the Prestige how to route an incoming analog call. Set to Phone1 if you wish
to route the incoming analog call for this telephone number to the PHONE port 1 (a.k.a.,
‘POTS’ port in North America and ‘A/B Adapter’ in Europe). Set to Phone2 if you wish
to route the incoming analog call for this telephone number to PHONE port 2. Set to
DOVBS if you wish to receive incoming Data Over Voice Bearer Service call. Note that
both phone ports will handle incoming analog calls as DOVBS in this case.
SPID
Number(s).
Depending on your switch type, you may have zero, one or two SPIDs assigned to your
line. For example, if your switch type is Northern Telecom Custom, you will have to
enter two SPID numbers
