PHONE LINE MANAGER 16 X 4

18.2 Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 Configuration Program

This program is designed to run under Microsoft Windows and can minimize the need to manually enter all of the commands detailed in this manual. To use the program, simply insert the diskette into your computer and enter A:\SETUP or B:\SETUP from the FILE,RUN menu in Program Manager (or the START, RUN menu in Windows 95). There are still some instances where you will need to use the telephone at the System Manager’s extension to set certain features or operating modes. These are:

Set the mode of the RS-232C serial port. The “System Mode” must be set to allow the configuration program to communicate with the Phone Line Manager 16 x 4. This mode must also be set for the CAT version of the Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 software to function. The “Features Mode” is enabled to allow it to (1) output the Call-History information, (2) output the Caller ID data at the beginning of incoming calls (except for the CAT version of the software), or (3) respond to the Automatic Call-History Retrieval program running on attached computer.

The message in the voice announcement module can only be recorded from extension #15 when that extension is designated as the System Manager. (See Section 7.2).

If a person loses their Individual Call-Barring Password, enter the first part of the Configure Extension command. Enter 75 nn then hang up. nn is the physical extension number 00 to 15 (see Section 4.2).

Manually output the Call-History Buffer contents to the RS-232C port (See Section 17.3).

Clear the contents of the Call History buffer (see Section 17.5).

Reset the entire system to default values (see Section 3.7).

Set the date, time, and the day of the week (see Section 16.1).

18.3 Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 Configuration Program—Remote Operation

It is possible for a computer running the Configuration Program in one location to communicate with an Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 unit at another site.

Remote configuration is enabled when the System Manager enters the 772 command. When this command is entered, the Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 will answer the next incoming Central Office call in the DISA mode. If the incoming caller enters an 8, the unit will enter a mode allowing a remote program to configure the Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 via tones sent through the incoming line. An external modem is not required. A special translation unit is required at the host computer site in order to allow the standard PC-based Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 Configuration Program to connect to the remote Phone Line Manager 16 x 4.

In this configuration mode, the resources required for answering calls in the DISA mode will be in use. Therefore, all incoming calls will be answered in the non-DISA mode for as long as the configuration process is in progress.

NOTE

The ability to remotely program by using an external modem at the Phone Line Manager 16 x 4 unit site (using the 771 command) which was supported by earlier versions of the software is no longer supported.
