Connection Type
There are several ways of connecting

codecs. A drop-
down menu allows users to select from several different
connection methods. This is displayed in the right-hand image.
Manual default profiles have preset
Connection type
(and
Algorithm
) settings. Generally these settings reflect how you
will want to connect using the profile you wish to use.
In certain situations you will need to adjust the settings for
Connection type
. For example, if you are connecting using a
stereo connection, i.e.
ManDflt Stereo
, the default
Connection
type
is
Bonded Any
. This is so that you can connect using either POTS lines or
ISDN B channels with a bonded connection. However, if you have a POTS
connection attached to your codec, as well as an ISDN module (with 2 B
channels), if you dial using
Bonded Any
the connection may select one B channel
and the POTS line as the two available connections to connect with – even if you
have selected your bonded connection numbers. In this situation it would be best
to change the
Connection type
to
Bonded ISDN
, ensuring this sort of confusion
does not occur. The POTS connection could be used as a failover connection in
this situation. (Related topics: Algorithms, Failover profile, and Phonebook
Numbers.)
Important Note:
If you change a
Connection type
setting for a manual default
profile, you need to ensure that this setting is also changed on the remote codec
you are dialing.
