Q931 on MICS

[EdenA]

Hi,

I have just got a MICS, and have been trying to work out whether a MICS with PRI card supports Q931.

Using a handset I have checked the configuration options for the card and it states DASS2, BRI or Link.

Do I need an additional code to activate Q931?

Regards

q931 is a layer 3 protocol covered by the norstar. why are u asking about q931? are you getting a pri from a lucent switch?

Hi Tommy,

I have a PRI from DMS100, but here in Europe we generally use Q931 opposed to DASS2 from many years ago.

did you use a PRI enabler? sounds to me like the MICS is not PRI enabled.

I think it must be enabled because the MICS will accept a DASS2 based PRI but not Q931.

is this a new MICS? what version of s/w?

If this is new and you did not enter a PRI enable, it is not enabled. MICS never comes from the factory with PRI enabled.

i have never seen a Europen version of MICS software and the appearance of BRI as a choice leads me to belive that DASS2 does not require the PRI enabler but q931 does.

Hi, It was second hand but the PRI functionality is enabled otherwise DASS2 (other ISDN/30 or PRI variant) would not be enabled.

According to the docs that came with the system the PRI keycode has been entered. The previous owner was using it was a DASS2 PRI for about 12 months.
