In this chapter I want to show all parameters which have to be changed. But be carefully, the chapters follow the APD-2 Handbook and not the way how the configuration works really. The reason is, that if you would change the asynchronous link first, you would loose the connection to the configuration menue. Therefore you should use the automatic configuration tool I wrote, or you should read carefully what the automatic configuration program does really.
Enter the configuration menue with typing
1<CR>
You should receive the following view:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration menu
--------------------
1) Channel
2) Profile
3) Link
4) System parameters
5) PVC
6) Call ID
7) NUI
8) Alias
9) Routing table
10) Funnel
11) X.32
12) Management
13) X.25 Multicast
14) IP Routing
15) ISDN configuration
CR) Exit

In the following chapters 4.1 to 4.15 I try to describe, which settings you need for a proper OeBB X25/X.25/X.21 Connection.
Press
1<CR>
to enter the channel configuration
Press
5<CR>
to check channel types. You should see the following:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chan | 2 | 3 |
-----|-----|-----|
Prot |X.28 |X.28 |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the channel types of link 2 and 3 if not X.28 Protocol set. Afterwards go back to configuration menue by pressing and change to menue update channel by typing
3<CR>
and enter channelnumber
2<CR>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you changed all parameters of profile 1, than save the profile with
S<CR>
and leave to the profile configuration menue.
Enter the link configuration for link 1 by activating fuction "3 Link" in the configuration menue and function "3 Update Link parameters" in the link configuration menue. You get the following view:

Normaly there should be nothing to change. If you checked the systemparameters leave this screen and go back to the main menue.
Enter the PVC configuration by choosing "5 PVC" in the configuration menue. In the first step you should check if there exists a empty pvc-configuration table. You can view the configured pvcs by choosing "4 Display PVC s" in the PVC configuration menue. You should receive the following picture:

If your PVC-configuration dosnīt look like this you should follow the reset procedure described at the end of this document and reset all parameters in the PAD and start again from the beginning with the setup procedure.
For OeBB X25 we need on the X.25 link two PVCs. In the next step we connect logicaly the two physikal links 2 and 3 to the first two PVCs on the physokal link 1, which is the X.25 connector. Links 2 and 3 are V.24/X.28 PAD Links to the OeBB X25 Applikation.
