Working with fractional PRI
Working with fractional PRI Installer password required
When you purchase PRI from your service provider, you can request the number of B-channels that are allocated for you to use. For example, you may want to use only 12 B-channels instead of 23 B-channels. If this is your situation, you should disable all the B-channels that you do not need.
It is recommended that the number of lines that are deprovisioned on a DTI card (configured as PRI) be the same as the number of B-channels that are disabled. For example when B-channels 13-23 are disabled, you should deprovision lines 13 to 23.

DHCP Client
DHCP Client will access an external DHCP server every time the LAN cable is connected to the CPU/ VoIPDB or when the System is powered up. The System can receive the following information from the DHCP server:
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.
Conditions
• The DHCP Server should be configured to provide the system the same IP address every time. For example in the DHCP server extend the lease time to infinite or setup the server to provide the same IP address based on the systems MAC Address.
• When changing PRG 10-63-01 (DHCP Client Enable/Disable) a system reset is required for this change to become effective.
• DHCP client can set following programs automatically; however other IP related programs (such as PRG 84-26) have to set manually as required.
- IP Addresses: PRG 10-12-01 (CPU), PRG 10-12-09 (VOIPDB)
- Subnet Masks: PRG 10-12-02 (CPU), PRG 10-12-10 (VOIPDB)
- Default Gateway: PRG 10-12-03
• DHCP Client (PRG 10-63) and existing DHCP Server feature (PRG 10-13) can not be used at the same time.
• While the System accesses the DHCP Server, to receive IP Addressing information, the CPU RUN LED flashes as follows. If the System fails to receive an IP Address from the DHCP server the system will use the IP Address assigned in PRG 10-12.

Callback request
With Callback, a user does not have to repeatedly call a busy extension back, hoping to find it idle.
When an extension user calls a busy co-worker, they can leave a Callback request for a return call. The system services Callback requests as follows:
● Caller at extension A leaves a Callback at extension B.
Caller can place or answer additional calls in the mean time.
● When extension B becomes idle, the system rings extension A. This is the Callback ring.
● Once caller A answers the Callback ring, the system rings (formerly busy) extension B. If caller A doesn’t answer the Callback ring, the system cancels the Callback.
● As soon as caller B answers, the system sets up an Intercom call between A and B.
An extension user can leave a Callback at many extensions simultaneously. The system processes the Callbacks as the extensions become free. In addition, many extensions can leave a Callback at the same extension. The system processes these Callbacks on a first-in/first-out (FIFO) basis.
If an extension user leaves a Callback request and then fails to answer within four rings, the system cancels the Callback.

Code
Optional (Unforced) Account Codes
Optional Account Codes allow a keyset extension user to enter an Account Code while placing a trunk call or any time while on a call. This type of Account Code is optional: the system does not require the user to enter it. If the keyset user is already talking on a trunk call, their conversation continues uninterrupted while they enter an Account Code.
Single line telephone users can only enter an Account Code while placing their trunk call. Forced Account Codes
Forced Account Codes require an extension user to enter an Account Code every time they place a trunk call. If the user doesn’t enter the code, the system prevents the call. The system can require Forced Account Codes for all trunk calls, or just for toll calls (as determined by Toll Restriction programming). Note that Forced Account Codes do not pertain to incoming calls.
Verified Account Codes
With Verified Account Codes, the system compares the Account Code the user dials with a list of codes programmed into the Verified Account Code Table. If the Account Code is in the table, the call goes through (provided it is not prevented by an extension’s Toll Restriction programming). If the code is not in the table, the system prevents the call. Verified Account Codes, if enabled, apply only to Forced Account Codes.
Using Account Codes and Speed Dial
To simplify Account Code operation, Personal and System Speed Dial bins can contain Account Codes. Keep the following in mind when using Speed Dial and Account Codes:
● The Account Code can be either the first or last entry in the bin, and must be preceded and fol- lowed by the # character. For example, the Account Code 1234 must be entered as #1234#.
● The Program 0201 - # Key to Enter Account Codes (page 629) option must be enabled in sys- tem programming. In addition, the Program 0201 - Enable Account Codes in Speed Dial (page 629) option must also be enabled.
● The Speed Dial bin can contain an Account Code followed by an outside number, or just the Account Code. The Account Code must be preceded and followed by a # entry. If the bin contains just the Account Code, the user must be sure to press the bin key before dialing the outside number.
● If the system has Verified Account Codes enabled, the Account Code entered in the Speed Dial bin must match an entry in the Verified Account

System version
System version
System version allows you to note the version number of the System Processor (SP) software, which resides in the Feature Cartridge.
Use the SP version number to determine whether you have the latest software release, and to trace a software fault if one occurs.
For instance:
• SP version number can indicate a Feature Cartridge incompatibility.
• SP and telephone version numbers can indicate a telephone version incompatibility.
• SP and functional terminal version numbers can indicate a functional terminal incompatibility.

Controlling system access
Controlling system access
Modular ICS programming provides several ways of protecting your Norstar system from unauthorized access or use. These features are used in combination to provide control both to users and to lines.
Class of Service
Class of Service (COS) refers to the capabilities that Norstar provides to users who access the system from the public or private network. A password defines which set of capabilities the user has access to.
The COS includes:
• filters that restrict dialing on the line
• an access package defines the set of line pools that may be accessed and whether or not the user has access to the paging feature
The COS that is applied to an incoming remote access call is determined by:
• the filters that you apply to the incoming trunk
• the Class of Service password that the caller used to gain access to the Norstar system
In cases where DISA is not automatically applied to incoming calls, the remote caller can change the class of service by dialing the DISA DN and entering a COS password.
Thursday, July 9, 2015
Remote system access
Remote system access
The remote access feature allows callers elsewhere on the private or the public network to access a Norstar system by dialing directly into the system without going through an attendant. Once in the system, the remote user can use some of the system resources. The remote access must be enabled in programming before callers can use it.
Norstar systems support remote system access on the following trunk types, which may require the remote caller to enter a COS password for direct inward system access (DISA):
• auto-answer loop start trunks
• auto-answer E&M trunks
• DID trunks, by means of the DISA DN
• PRI trunks, by means of the DISA DN

Type of ISDN service
Type of ISDN service
Two types of ISDN services (lines) are available: Basic Rate Interface (BRI) and Primary Rate Interface (PRI). Each line is made up of separate channels known as B and D channels which transmit information simultaneously.
• BRI is known as 2B+D because it consists of 2 B-channels and one D-channel.
• PRI is known as 23B+D because it consists of 23 B-channels and one D-channel.

Delayed prime line
PRIME LINE IMMEDIATELY/DELAYED
Description
When a user goes to an off-hook state, the system normally provides ICM dial tone. If desired, a station can be assigned to access a pre-assigned system resource (Prime Line). The Prime Line can be any of the Idle Line Settings: Seize a CO/IP Line, Call another station, Activate a Flex button feature. Call to pre-assigned Hunt group. Call to pre-assigned station Speed. Call to pre-assigned system Speed.
Prime Line access can be defined as immediate or delayed. When assigned immediate, upon an off-hook event, the system provides access to the Prime Line. With Delayed Prime Line, the station user receives normal Intercom dial tone for the Prime Line Delay timer and after the delay, the Prime Line is accessed.

Alarm
Alarm
Description
10 MISCELLANEOUS SERVICES
The system can be programmed to recognize the status of an external contact from a relay (open or closed). When activated, the System will signal programmed Stations with a single tone repeated at 1-minute intervals or a continuous tone. This capability is commonly employed to provide remote alarm signals or as a Doorbell signal. When used as an alarm, the assigned stations receive the programmed signal. To stop the signal, the alarm should be deactivated (reset) from a station assigned to receive the alarm signal. Also, the condition causing the alarm should be cleared.
When used as a Doorbell, a single tone is used. Each time the Doorbell contact activates, the assigned stations receive the Doorbell signal. The system can be configured to allow the receiving station to activate a contact to open the door.
Operation
When the Alarm activates, the system sends the alarm signal to assigned stations.
To terminate the alarm signal from an idle station assigned to receive the alarm,
1. Dial ‘5 6 5’.
2. The alarm signal will be terminated at all assigned stations.
Consideration
The external alarm contacts should be dry (no voltage/current source connected) and
connected as described in the Installation manual.
An SLT cannot be assigned to receive alarm signals. Alarm Reset can be programmed on a Flexible button.
