Chapter 9 Descriptions

Maintenance Administration Terminal The Maintenance Administration Terminal (MAT) is a personal computer (PC) that provides an interface to the PBX via the UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS CPU card. The MAT PC must have the MATWorX IPS program properly installed to communicate with the PBX. MATWorX is required for system software registration, activation and system data backups.

Message Center Interface (MCI)

This feature provides an interface with a customer supplied Voice Mail System (VMS) which can send Message Waiting lamp control data to the UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS using an RS-232C interface.

Message Registration

This feature provides output from the system to a call accounting system using an RS-232C interface. This allows the Hotel/Motel clerk to retrieve the information needed to charge for local and toll calls.

Message Reminder

This feature allows a user or Attendant to turn on the message waiting (MW) lamp of a Single Line Telephone, or the Message Reminder (MSG) LED of a Multiline Terminal (if assigned).

Message Waiting

This feature allows the Attendant Console, Hotel/Motel (H/M) Front Desk Instrument, administrative station, or Property Management System (PMS) terminal to light a lamp (on an uninterrupted or interrupted basis) on a Single Line Telephone or Multiline Terminal to indicate a message is waiting.

In addition to the lamp indication control, this feature also provides the Voice Message Waiting service that an originating station user can set to Message Waiting with a prerecorded message by using the Digital Announcement Trunk card (PN-2DATA).

In addition to Loop and Ground Start Trunks, the following can also be interfaced with the UNIVERGE NEAX 2000 IPS: CCSA Lines Code Calling Equipment, Dictation Equipment, Foreign Exchange (FX) Lines, Radio Paging Equipment, and Wide Area Telephone Service (WATS) lines.

instances allows them to maintain telephone dial control of normal dictation system

features.

This feature provides station users dial access to Radio Paging Equipment, and to selectively tone - or voice/ tone-alert individuals carrying pocket paging devices. The paged party (when on premises) can be connected to the paging party by going to the nearest station and dialing an answer back code.
