Configuration

The particular composition and hardware selected for a system, including external

 

connections, internal options, and peripheral equipment.

Control Mode

A state of the AUDIX machine where firmware is in control and software is shut

 

down. The maintenance terminal displays the Control Mode Menu and forms are not

 

available.

Control Mode

A list of Control Mode functions that may be done while software is shutdown. The

Menu

menu appears on the maintenance terminal and includes the options: (1) system

 

status, (2) environmental alarm status, (3) initialization history, (4) restart, (5) reboot,

 

(6) restart with Data Base Processor (DBP) reboot.

Corrupt

A damaged filesystem. It may have an usually small or large size, or a negative

Filesystem

number on the filesystem : list form.

Create Message

Activity 1 on the Activity Menu, used by AUDIX subscribers to record or edit a voice

Activity

mail message.

Customer

Any Integrated Systems Digital Network (ISDN) data or Terminal Equipment (TE)

Premises

that is installed at the customer site, not the central office (CO). The Network

Equipment

Termination 1 (NT1) unit is the normal boundary between Customer Premise

(CPE)

Equipment (CPE and CO (off-site) equipment.

Data Base

A collection of filesystems and files in disk memory that store the voice and nonvoice

 

(program data) necessary for AUDIX system operation.

Data Base

One of the major AUDIX subsystems that interacts with the other subsystems to move

Processor (DBP)

voice and nonvoice data to and from disk.

Data Base

This processor (UN160B) talks to a Voice Buffer (TN520) over the S-bus, and to the

Processor

Data Base Processor (DBP) through the Voice Storage and Forward Interface (VSFI)

Interface

UN162 circuit pack and the DBP/VME Bus.

(DBPI)

 

Data

Standard type of data interface normally used to connect to Data Terminal Equipment

Communications

(DTE) devices. DCE devices include the Data Service Unit (DSU), the Isolating Data

Equipment

Interface (IDI), and the Modular Processor Data Module (MPDM).

(DCE)

 

Data

A switch device that allows nonvoice (data) communication between AUDIX and a

Communications

System 85 or DIMENSION PBX. The DCIU is a high-speed synchronous data link

Interface Unit

that communicates with the Common Control switch processor over a Direct Memory

(DCIU)

Access (DMA) channel that reads data directly from FP memory.

Data Link

The connection from the AUDIX cabinet to the switch DCIU or SCI Interface boards

 

that enables nonvoice (data) messages to pass between AUDIX and the switch, such

 

as message-waiting lamp, time, and call-status information. The link varies according

 

to the type of AUDIX and switch used. Each AUDIX adjunct needs one data link.

Data Service

DATAPHONE II 2500 DSUs are synchronous DCE devices used for extended-local

Unit (DSU)

AUDIX connections. The 2600 or 2700 series may also be used; these are more

 

expensive DSU options and support diagnostic testing and the DATAPHONE II

 

Service network system.
