Exclusive Stratagy IVP8/Stratagy DK Features
Parameters
Because of the unique nature of the interaction process between the Stratagy IVP8 and
Strata CTX or Strata DK, three parameters are used exclusively with the Stratagy IVP8 (see Table 3 on page 25 for the definitions and settings for these parameters).
•console_slot_id – identifies the PDKU slot. Stratagy IVP8 monitors the Direct Station Select (DSS) for Busy Station Identification.
•dss_active – tells the Stratagy IVP8 to retrieve Busy Lamp Field (BLF) busy station information for the assigned DSS Port field located on the Users Menu – Options screen (see Step 12: “Program the Mailboxes” on page 27 for information on programming the field).
•ksu_time – synchronizes Stratagy IVP8’s system clock with the system clock of the supporting Strata CTX/Strata DK telephone system. Use of this feature with the Strata CTX requires SMDI integration.
Tokens
As with all Stratagy systems, the Stratagy IVP8 retains all of the robust application programming that is provided by tokens. There are two tokens supported only by the Stratagy IVP8. These are:
•KM – Enables a Stratagy Admin PC’s modem to communicate with the Stratagy IVP8 internal modem (2400 baud). This token is factory programmed in User ID 993.
•KT( ) – Directs calls to a designated User ID when:
•DSS function is active (dss_active = true)
•Assigned in the “answering” mailbox
•Night Transfer on the DSS console is On.
Busy Station Identification
The Busy Station Identification feature enables the Stratagy IVP8 to determine if a station is
“busy” without performing a “hookflash” and transfer. Stratagy IVP8 “reads” the data of a DSS console and knows instantly if the station is busy or in Do Not Disturb (DND).
A station in DND mode signals a “busy” condition to a DSS console. DND and busy are processed the same way by the Stratagy IVP8 (i.e., the Busy chain is executed).
See “Busy Station Identification” on page 27 and “DSS/Busy Lamp Feature (For all Strata DK systems)” on page 13 for details.
Stratagy System Time
The Main Menu screen displays KSU time when this feature is enabled or the Stratagy IVP8’s own system time (standard, daylight savings) when it is disabled.
See “Stratagy IVP8 System Time” on page 27 for details.
Night Transfer Alternate Routing
Using the KT( ) token, a feature called Night Transfer Alternate Routing is available. The feature monitors the DSS Night Transfer key in order to activate the KT( ) token for alternate routing applications.
See “Night Transfer Alternate Routing” on page 28 for details.
