6.2.6.6 Utilities: Circuit-ID

Edit this Modem’s Circuit ID:

()

----------------------------------------

Compose a Circuit ID string on the bottom line by using the

◄ ►

arrow keys to select the

alphanumeric character space to edit. Then, use the

▲▼

arrow keys to change that character.

You may use the following characters to compose a Circuit ID string of up to 40 characters in

length or a MetaCarrier Custom Message of 24 characters or less:

[Space] ( ) * + - , . / 0-9 and A-Z.

Press ENTER once you finish composing the Circuit ID string. As created here, in addition to the

front panel VFD, the Circuit ID also appears in the title bar of compatible web browsers for easy

unit identification.

Proper composition of the Circuit ID string depends whether the Carrier ID

(MetaCarrier) feature operation is turned On or Off (see Sect. 6.2.6.3 Utilities:

CarrID):

1)

With Carrier ID turned On, the first 24 characters of the 40-character Circuit ID

are intended for and sent as the MetaCarrier Custom Message. While you must

limit your MetaCarrier Custom Message to 24 characters or less, the full 40

characters of the Circuit ID will display on the front panel screen saver (see Sect.

6.1.3.1 Screen Saver).

2)

With Carrier ID turned Off, the Circuit ID full 40 character length is available for

creation of the unit identification label that displays on the front panel VFD

screen saver and the Web browser title care.
