DICTATION SYSTEM ACCESS

Description

Permits access to, and control of customer-owned dictation equipment by voice terminal users. Dictation systems may be connected either via single-line voice terminal ports (the preferred method) or via auxiliary trunk ports (if the dictation equipment requires a separate contact closure for proper operation). The dictation system is accessed by dialing a PDC oppressing a DSS button.

Considerations

Allows users to access and control shared dictation equipment.

Interactions

Direct Inward Dialing (DID): A DID number may match the dictation system access code. This allows an outside caller to access the dictation equipment.

Administration Requirements

System:

Requires a port assignment on a ZTN78 Tip Ring Line or TN742 Analog Line CP. A port on a TN763 Auxiliary Trunk CP must be used if the dictation equipment requires a separate contact closure for proper operation.

Voice Terminal: (Station Port)

Assign DSS access buttons as desired.

Hardware Requirements

Customer provided dictation equipment

Port on a ZTN78, TN742, or TN763 CP, as required. If the equipment requires a contact closure, the TN763 must be used.

Detailed connection information is provided in Figure 2-20.Descriptions of the SIP (Station Interconnect Panel), TAE (Trunk Access Equipment), and associated cables and adapters are provided under the heading “Connectivity” in Section 4 of this manual.
