Users Menu – Options Screen

You should note the differences between the Stratagy IVP8’s User Menu – Options screen (shown below with sample data) and the Options screen supported by the other Stratagy systems:

The DSS Port field replaces the Alternate Rate feature that is not available with the Stratagy IVP8. See “DSS Port” on page 5 for details.

The Message Volume feature, although displayed on the screen, is not supported by the Stratagy IVP8.

DSS Port

Alternate Rate field is replaced by DSS Port field on Stratagy IVP8.

Important! If the dss_active parameter in the install.cfg file is set to false, this field is disabled.

The DSS Port field is indicative of the button position of a DSS console with default programming. Simply put, the Stratagy IVP8 assumes that the programming of the DSS console is fixed and cannot be changed. The Stratagy IVP8 always identifies key 01 of the DSS console as port 000. So if a port other than 000 is programmed under key 01, the DSS Port field for that corresponding mailbox is “000.”

Example

Let’s say that a programmer has changed key 01 in Program 29 (Strata DK424i/DK424) to provide BLF indication for port 023, and the extension associated for that port, which by default is extension 223, has a corresponding mailbox in the Stratagy IVP8. If the Stratagy IVP8 is expected to monitor busy activity for this extension, the DSS Port setting for Mailbox 223 would be “023.”

Possible values: 0~57, -1 disables feature

Default: -1

Important! Once the DSS/Busy Lamp feature has been programmed using the console_slot_id and dss_active parameters and the DSS Port field, Stratagy IVP8 must be re-started two times. The first re-start configures the DSS parameters/field. The second re-start “loads” the DSS parameters/field into active memory.
