DCP Extension
Numbers
The switch data port extensions used for the AUDIX DCP network ports. System 85
and DEFINITY Generic 2 traditional modules require four extensions assigned in a
hunt group. Make the hunt group accessible to Direct Inward Dialing (DID), DCS, or
tie trunks (DID is the most common). Generic 2 universal modules require at least a
TN366B vintage 2 ACC, a TN539 vintage 4, or a TN539B ACCE in the AUDIX
system in order to support four channels.
System 75, System 75 XE, Generic 1, Generic 3, and MERLIN II require two
extensions. If the Generic 2 universal module is connected to a TN366 or TN366B
vintage 1 ACC, it is also limited to two extensions.
RS232
Connectivity
Extension
Numbers
The RS-232 numbers refer to the new ports (channels 5 and 6) available in R1V5 or
later AUDIX systems equipped with a TN539 or TN539B ACCE. Two extension
numbers are required and should be in their own hunt group with a DID number as the
lead extension.
This field refers to analog RS-232 connections where the AUDIX system is to be
accessed via a switched RS-232 connection (that is, the AUDIX system will be cabled
to a switch port through a modem). This is specified as an rs232a (asynchronous)
type of connection on the AUDIX system : translation : network
port form.
NOTE
If one AUDIX system is directly connected to another through a null-modem cable, no switch
extension numbers are necessary.
RS232
(Converted to
DCP
Connectivity)
Extension
Numbers
The RS-232 numbers refer to the new ports (channels 5 and 6) available in R1V5 or
later AUDIX systems equipped with a TN539 or TN539B ACCE. This field refers to
digital RS-232 connections where the AUDIX system is to be accessed via an
MPDM/M1* or 7400A data module. This is specified as an rs232s (synchronous)
type of connection on the AUDIX system : translation : network
port form.
Hunt Group
Extension
Number(s)
On System 75, DEFINITY Generic 1, or Generic 3 systems, this is the soft extension
(DID) number used to access the AUDIX network hunt group. Typically only one
hunt group is assigned.
Equipment
(Switch Ports)
This is the equipment location code for the DCP and/or RS-232 ports (formerly called
the Equipment Line Location).
Dial String At times it is appropriate for AUDIX to use the switch’s routing features. Select any
that apply to your switch and indicate the Feature Access Code (FAC), Trunk Access
Code (TAC), or Trunk Group (TG) as required.
Switchroom
Number
DID telephone number of the switch room. This number is used to contact the
technician.
AUDIX Remote
Maintenance
Number
The Remote Maintenance Terminal (RMT) DID number assigned to the modem
connected to the AUDIX maintenance port H00. This allows remote services
personnel to log in for troubleshooting and/or administration.
