The ADTRAN Express 3000™ is a stand-alone ISDN modem that is
ideal for remote access and Internet connectivity. The Express 3000
transmits data at speeds up to 230.4 kbps when using hi/fn compression and up to 512 kbps when using Microsoft compression. The
Express 3000 includes ISDN terminal adapter and network termination functionality, eliminating the need for an external NT-1 device.
The unique modem port on the rear of the Express 3000 allows an analog modem and the Express 3000 to operate from the same computer
serial port on a PC or Macintosh.
Overview
AO/DI
The Express 3000’s Always On/Dynamic ISDN (AO/DI) technology
allows a virtual connection to a corporate network or to the Internet
while conserving costs. AO/DI allows data transmission over the low
bandwidth D channel using the X.25 packet network. As demand for
greater bandwidth is presented to the Express 3000, B channels are
added to accommodate the increased data flow. As deman d for bandwidth decreases, B channels are automatically disconnected to conserve bandwidth and the cost associated with using a B channel. To
use this service, your Internet Service Provide (ISP) or remote access
provider must support AO/DI.
EXPRESS CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE
ADTRAN’s Express Configuration software, included with the
Express 3 000, makes connecting to ISDN and configuring the
Express 3000 easy. This software includes on-line help to assist you in
quickly and easily setting up your system (see also
on page 3-5). Expert ISDN, part of the Express Configuration software, contains sophisticated patented algorithm s tha t automatically

Using On-line Help
Chapter 1. Overview
Service Profile Indentifier (SPID) numbers. In areas where the telephone company supports SPID download, this information automatically downloads to the modem, and the Express 3000 becomes plugand-play with the ISDN line.
ANALOG DEVICES SUPPORTED
The Express 3000 supports up to two analog devices such as telephone, FAX machine, or analog modem in addition to the computer
connection for data transmissions. When transmitting data at maximum throughput over both B channels using Multilink PPP, the
Express 3000 modem automatically detects calls on the analog ports.
Upon detection, the Express 3000 modem adjusts the speed of the data
call to 64 kbps using one B channel and accepts the analog/voice call
on the other B channel. After completing the analog/voice call, the
Express 3 000 modem automatically resumes data transfer over both
Bchannels.
REMOTE ACCESS
Remote access gives Management Information Systems (MIS) managers the flexibility of adjusting the configuration of remote units over
the ISDN line.
EXPRESS 3000 FEATURES
The Express 3000 provides the following features:
•Data rates up to 230.4 kbps—more than s ix times faster than a V.34
analog modem
•Simple setup with the ADTRAN Express Configuration Software™
•Automatic SPID and Switch Type detection using ADTRAN Expert ISDN (covered under patent number 5,715,241), or Auto SPID

Connecting Your Primary Telephone
The Basic Rate ISDN line, required for using the Express 3000, includes two ISDN phone numbers (see also,
Line
on page 1-4). The Express 3000 allocates ISDN phone number 1 to
POTS port 1. Connect your primary telephone (the one you use to talk
to people) to POTS port 1 (see Figure 2-5).
Ordering a Basic Rate ISDN
Shared Port for Analog Devices
ISDN phone number 2 is shared by the EIA-232 port and the POTS
port 2; therefore, you cannot use both ports at the same time. For example, you can’t use a FAX machine connected to POTS port 2 at the
same time you are using the Express 3000 for, say, Internet access.
ISDN data calls and external modem applications must be
placed to ISDN phone number 2, so provide this number as
your FAX number, etc.

UNDERSTANDING PROFILES
A profile stores and retrieves multiple configurations for the
Express 3000. An individual profile contains unique settings appropriate to specific applications. Using the Express Configuration program, profiles can be created, saved, copied, edited, and deleted. In
addition, importing and exporting profiles simplifies troubleshooting
and setup. The Express Configuration program uses two types of profiles: ISDN profiles and User profiles.
ISDN Profiles
ISDN profiles contain configuration information for the ISDN line
such as Local Directory Numbers (LDNs), Service Profile Identifiers
(SPIDs), and Switch Type. Using the
Configuration program, you can modify, create, and delete ISDN profiles. You can store up to 16 ISDN profiles. (See also

Figure 3-3. ISDN Profile Setup Window
General Tab
The General Tab contains fields for setting ISDN line information such
as switch type, area code, phone numbers 1 and 2, and SPIDs 1 and 2.
In addition, you can disable the automatic detection of SPIDs. Also,
you can enter feature activator codes for conference calling, call transfer, and message waiting.
Switch Type
Defines the switch type for the local version of the software, either
AT&T 5ESS, DMS - 100, National ISDN-1, or NEC Switch. If you
are running the International version of the Express Configuration Wizard, five additional switch types are available: Euro ISDN, VN4, NTT, KDD, or TDX. (The telephone company should
provide this information as part of the ISDN Line installation; if
this information is not provided, contact the telephon e company.)
Area Code
Sets the area code for the ISDN lines. The area code is the same for
both B channels. Enter the area code only if you plan to use the
AutoSPID algorithm to automatically detect the Switch Type and
SPIDs.
3-8Express 3000 User Manual61203153L2-20
Chapter 3. Using the Express Configuration Program
In regions in which the area code has recently changed, the ISDN
line may be configured with a new area code. ADTRAN’s AutoSPID algorithm attempts to recognize these regions and adjust
the area code automatically if AutoSPID in itially fails. A table of
old area codes and the corresponding new area cod es is located in
the installation directory. This is a standard text file and may be
modified. For Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, the default installation directory is C:\Program Files\Adtran\Isdn.
Phone Numbers 1and 2
Defines the ISDN LDNs. The LDN is the seven digit telephone
number assigned to the ISDN line and is used when placing or receiving calls. A multipoint line may have LDNs that resemble the
following:
ISDN Phone Number 1: 5551212
ISDN Phone Number 2: 5551213
SPIDs 1and 2
Identifies the ISDN terminal equipment to the ISDN switch. SPIDs
are assigned by the telephone company when the ISDN line is installed. The SPID usually looks similar to the telephone number.
For example , a mu ltipoint li ne may have S PIDs th at look a s follow s:
Service Profile ID 1: 0155512120
Service Profile ID 2: 0155512130
The number of SPIDs required (0, 1, or 2) depends on how the
ISDN line is configured. For example, a point-to-point line has no
SPIDs. Multipoint lines have one or more S PIDs. The Express 3000
uses the presence of one SPID to determine if the line is multipoint. If the line only has one SPID, then the SPID must be entered
in the box labeled Service Profile ID 1.
Disable SPID download
Disables the automatic detection of SPIDs.
NI1 Conference Feature
Defines the activator code for Call Conference. This code is generally used only with National ISDN and DMS-100 switches. The
default value is 60.

NI1 Message Feature
Defines the activator code for Message Waiting. The default value
is 63.
Packet Tab
The Packet Tab lets you set parameters for X.25 packet service, such as
window size, packet size, directory number, terminal endpoint identifier, and the dial prefix.
TX Window Size
Defines the number of unacknowledged packets sent before a reply is required. Used with X.25 flow control.
RX Window Size
Defines the number of unacknowledged receive packets that are
allowed before additional packets are rejected. Used with X.25
flow control.
Packet Size
Specifies the size of the X.25 packet sent.
Packet DN
Specifies the owner of the X.25 packet. This seven-digit packet
phone number is used when placing X.25 calls.
Packet TEI
Specifies the terminal endpoint identifier (TEI) that is negotiated
for D channel packet service. Use a value of 255 for dynamic TEI
allocation.
Dial Prefix
Defines the prefix required to dial out on a B channel. This information is only necessary when there is a different prefix f or D and
B channel access.

been rejected, users must view the Status Buffer for rejection messages.
Anonymous Call Rejection

MESSAGE WAITING INDICATOR
If your ISDN line provisioning includes a Message Waiting Indicator,
a stuttered dial tone is present on the POTS port when a message is unread. The stuttered dial tone is only present on the directory number
on which a Message Waiting Indicator has been provisioned. Once a
message is read, the stuttered dial tone stops.
When connecting to a National ISDN 1 switch, call
conferencing, message waiting, and call transferring are
assigned a unique feature identifier number. This number may
not be the same in all areas.
S-registers 90 through 93 (see Appendix A) contain the calling
feature identifier numbers used by the Express 3000. If these
numbers do not work in your area, contact your ISDN
provider.

You can set up the Express 3000 so that POTS ports 1 and 2 have distinctive rings that are easily recognized. S-register 19 controls this feature (see

If you are connecting an external analog modem that has not been
used by a PC running Windows 95/98, you must configure it before
you can use it (see
Configuring the External Analog Modem
on page 7-4).
Configuring the External Analog Modem
To configure the external analog modem, set up the communications
software so it uses the same serial COM port to which the
Express 3000 is connected.
To install and use an external modem that does not support
230.4 kbps, set
ON (down)
230.4 kbps operation for ISDN connections, set
OFF (up)
When using an external analog modem that does not support
230.4 kbps with applications that support Express 3000 operation at
230.4 kbps, attach the Express 3000 to the high-speed 16650 UART
COM port and connect the external analog modem to a separate COM
port. This setup allows the Express 3000 to operate at 230.4 kbps and
the external modem to operate at the reduced speed.

CONTROLLING AN EXTERNAL ANALOG
MODEM
You can enable and disable (control) an external modem w ith the Windows 95/98 Tray Tool Men u (see
or with VT-100 terminal emulation (discussed here). When the
Express 3 000 enables the external modem port, the external analog
modem RTS and CTS lines directly switch over to the PC COM port.
This switching process allows the external analog modem to provide
flow control as normal. Once the modem is enabled, all further COM
activity transmits to the external analog modem. When the modem is
disabled, the ISDN terminal adapter within the Express 3000 processes all further COM port activity.
Launching the Tray Tool

Controlling the Modem via T erminal Emulation
Another method of controlling an external analog modem is using a
VT-100 terminal emulation package such as HyperTerminal. First, determine if the external analog modem is properly connected to the
Express 3000 by typing the AT command
key. If properly connected, the Express 3000 responds with the mes-

AT Commands and
S-Registers
AT COMMANDS
AT commands issue directions to the Express 3000 via a VT-100 terminal emulation session. The DTE serial port accepts AT commands only
when no calls are established; i.e., the carrier detect (CD) signal is inactive. When a call is established, the CD signal is active and the port
is used for data. The port cannot be used simultaneously to issue AT
commands and transmit and receive data. After entering command
mode (CD inactive), you can transmit AT commands to the Express
3000 to configure most options, dial re mote Express 3000s, and initiate
tests to check both the Express 3000 and the network connections.
Escape Sequence and Guard Time Delay
To exit data mode (CD active) and enter command mode, the DTE serial port must transmit a proper escape sequence to the Express 3000.
A specified time delay must occur between the last data character and
the first escape sequence character. This delay is the guard time delay.
You can change the guard time by writing a value to the S12 register.
For a valid escape sequence to occur, the DTE must transmit the escape code character
each character less than the guard time.

Appendix A. AT Commands and S-Registers
Entering Text into the Command Line
All command lines must begin with the AT character set in either all
uppercase or all lowercase letters. After the AT attention code, the
command line may contain a single command or a series of commands; however, AT commands
separate line and followed by
mands, you may separate the individual commands with spaces for
readability. The maximum length for a command line is 40 characters.
After receiving a terminating character, the Express 3000 executes
each command line. The default terminating character is a carriage return (ASCII 013), but it can be changed by writing a differen t value to
register S3. Before transmitting the terminating character, you can edit
the command line by using the backspace character (ASCII 008) to
erase errors so the proper commands can be entered.
