5.3 Using the LCD/Buttons and Web for Configuration

You use the various configuration settings to adjust audio levels and processing options, set the

ISDN parameters, etc.
You may use either the front panel LCD/button user interface on the Nx12 main unit or the

Web interface to access configuration options. The Web interface offers the full set of configura-

tion options, while the LCD/button includes only the most often needed items.

The LCD/Button User Interface

Each of the three buttons below the LCD display calls up the menu item group associated with

the button’s name.

Pressing any menu button (Audio, Telco, or System) twice displays the Status screen.
Menu Navigation & Item Selection

After you select a menu group, you can use the ∆ and ∇ arrow buttons to scroll through the

available items. You may select a highlighted item for modification by pressing the OK button.

Once an item is selected, you can use the ∆ and ∇ arrow buttons to can change the value of the

setting.
When you reach the value you desire, press the OK button again to lock it in and return you to

the item selection/scroll mode.

The Web User Interface

A Web Browser can be used to remotely configure and administer the system. All front panel

configuration options are duplicated on the web pages. Certain advanced options such as enter-

ing ISDN DNs/SPIDs and Livewire configuration require the Web interface.
You can connect a PC directly to the Nx12 with an Ethernet cross-cable. Or you can connect

both the PC and the Nx12 to an Ethernet switch or hub.

Important Note

If Livewire has been enabled, there will be a lot of network traffic generated by the Nx12.
Some PCs, switches, hubs, and routers that are not multicast-aware will not be able to handle
the volume and Web communication will not be possible.

Normally, you would use the Web interface to switch off the Livewire streams, but since you
can’t communicate with the Web interface, you will have to first disable the Livewire streams
from the front panel LCD/button interface. The first item under the Audio menu is what you
need.
