This manual covers the ETA (External desktop model) and ITA (Internal PC card)
ISDN Terminal Adapters.
ETA and ITA Terminal Adapters are “Active” devices; they contain a powerful microprocessor that offloads communications tasks from the computer allowing applications to perform at their best whilst you are online.
While the majority of ISDN Terminal adapters interface a single computer to the
ISDN network, ETA/ITA are dual port devices for connection to two computers.
ETA and ITA are ideal for applications where two or more concurrent data connections are needed such as the small office, a power user requiring high speed Multilink ISDN connections or dial-in servers supporting two concurrent callers.
The Terminal Adapters include a number of enhancements appropriate to
Electronic Point of Sale (EPoS) and are particularly suitable for retail environments.
ETA, the desktop model interfaces two standard telephone/ fax machines to
ISDN services in addition to its data connections. This feature eliminates the need to separately purchase ISDN telephones in addition to the data adapter.
ETA / ITA user guide 7
In addition to this User Guide the packaging should contain the following:
ISDN adapter
ISDN Cable
Windows 95/98/NT4/2000 Software Disk
The desktop model includes:
1 or 2 Serial adapter cables (single or dual channel units)
1 or 2 Serial adapter connectors (9 pin to 25 pin)
2 Telephone adapter cables (units with POTS)
Mains transformer
The latest software drivers, updates and user manuals are available online from the Internet at: www.panicsystems.co.uk

The following procedure installs the ISDN adapter in Windows 9x, 2000 and NTx.
Once installed the ISDN adapter can be used with most Windows applications including Dial-Up Networking, Hyperterminal, MS Exchange and Outlook mail.
Click on the Modems icon in Control panel..
Click on Add...
If the PC has PCMCIA slots, the following dialog appears.
Select Other and click on Next..
ETA / ITA user guide 17
Click on Next
When installing for the f irst time, click on “Have Disk”, and insert the driver diskette into the PC. The files are also available at www.panicsystems.co.uk
A number of ISDN adapter profiles are listed, select the one that suits your application. For a remote access server or calling the Internet, the PPP profile will normally be suitable.
Click on next.
The next dialogue prompts for the serial port, highlight the appropriate one(s) and click on Next.
To use both channels of the TA under Windows, repeat the steps in this section a second time.
If both channels of the ISDN adapter are installed they can be used independently by different applications, or by Dial-Up Networking for a Multilink connection.
The TA is now installed and ready for use.
ETA / ITA user guide 18
The TA can be configured to connect specified incoming calls to particular
Telephone or Data ports, based on information received from the network when the call is received.
Depending on the type of ISDN line and the subscribed options, the network may provide: an MSN number (the number dialed by the caller), a Subaddress
(specified by some calling equipment), or request a particular B channel (based on the number dialed by the caller).
The TA is most commonly set to use “MSN” to associate the number dialed with a port, however any one of the alternatives below may be specified.
First call to channel 1 (Default setting)
Configure the TA with AT!L0
The TA connects the first incoming call to DTE1(data call) or TEL1 (voice call).
When a second concurrent call is received, it is connected to DTE2 or TEL2.
Selected B Channel
Configure the TA with AT!L1
Use this setting for older BT ISDN lines that are neither Euro-ISDN compliant nor subscribed to MSN. For pre-1998 lines with two numbers, BT does not provide an MSN number but allocates a B channel to each number.
Incoming calls on the first number connect to either DTE1 (data call) or TEL1.
Incoming calls on the second number connect to either DTE2 (data call) or TEL2.
MSN number
Configure the TA with AT!L2 and see section 5.1 to allocate numbers to ports.
The number dialed by the caller determines which port receives the call.
This is the most common configuration if the ISDN line is Euro-ISDN, or is subscribed to MSN (Multiple Subscriber Numbers).
Subaddress
Configure the TA with AT!L3 and see section 5.1 to allocate Subaddresses to ports.
The Subaddress specified by the calling device determines which port receives the call. Note that Subaddressing is a subscriber option.
ETA / ITA user guide 19
In MSN or Subaddress mode (AT!L2,3 or 4), the TAs uses the incoming call table to allocate calls to DTE or TEL ports. The table is displayed by entering AT*C1.

Applicable to ETA units only
Line sense option
Units fitted with the line sense option incorporate circuitry to detect the ISDN line being disconnected.
The sense output is a normally closed relay contact suitable for connection to alarm panels. The relay is open if the ETA is turned off or the ISDN line is disconnected. The ISDN OK indicator on the front panel provides a visual confirmation of the relay status.
The relay output is connected to pins 1 and 6 (the outer pins) of the TEL1 socket.
Operation of TEL1 is unaffected although a suitable adapter will be needed if a connection to TEL1 is required.
DC power
Units may be supplied from either the supplied mains transformer or from a DC source such as a battery.
ETA accepts from 12 to 18VDC, which is applied to the two-pin power connector on the rear of the unit.
ETA is not sensitive to DC supply polarity and 0v and +Ve may be connected in either orientation.
