After Connecting the Cables
Where AutoSPID is supported (check with your ISDN service
provider), the DIVA T/A installation is totally Plug and Play.
Continue at “What’s Next?” on page 10.
If your ISDN line does not support AutoSPID, get the following
information from your ISDN service provider before continuing the
DIVA T/A installation:


ISDN number(s).
Your ISDN service provider should have provided you with one
or two ISDN numbers. These numbers are required to configure
the DIVA T/A.


SPIDs
If you are installing the DIVA T/A under Windows 95 or
Windows NT, the ISDN numbers are all that you require as the
SPID Wizard, used for configuring the DIVA T/A, will
automatically configure the SPIDs.
If you are not using Windows 95 or Windows NT, you must get
your SPID information from your ISDN provider. SPID(s) are
numbers usually consisting of your 3-digit Area Code plus 7-digit
ISDN Number followed by some digits. For new ISDN lines your
local telephone company will likely follow the generic SPID
format of a 10-digit ISDN Number (Area Code and ISDN phone
number) followed by 0101. For example: 51455512340101.
You may not have to enter SPID information for the DIVA T/A to
function properly if your ISDN line is configured for non-
initializing mode. The DIVA T/A features automatic non-
initializing mode support, which enables the interface to operate
without programming a SPID, or to retain basic service if SPID
initialization fails. However, your local telephone company has to
turn this feature on. As you lose functionality, we do not
recommend this operation mode.
