Based Console), is a Windows graphic application which is used to activate all the functions
of an attendant console on a compatible PC. This application also provides the maximum level
of comfort and user friendliness.
The Alcatel 4059 MAC application has a specific Alcatel keyboard which improves the operation
of the attendant workstation.
The Alcatel keyboard is a PC-type keyboard to which a set of function keys has been added.
An audio handset may also be connected either on the right or left hand side of the keyboard.

1.2

Session opening procedure


The application can run in Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 95 or 2000 (release 4.014.9
or higher of the 4059).
When the software is installed, the procedure to open an Alcatel 4059 session is run
automatically when the PC is powered up.
In this case, the attendant may enter the name and password used to open a Windows session.
When the PC has been started up:
-

click on the icon which opens the Alcatel 4059 welcome window

or click on the menu Start >> Programs >> Appllications >> Alcatel 4059 MAC.

This procedure offers multi-user access to the 4059 application. Only the configuration
and management of the screen may be controlled by the user, as the management of the
installations data is common to all users.

Information display field


The information display field occupies the top half of the screen and comprises a display field
containing:
-

supervision icons,

programmable keys,

The supervision icon field and the programmable key field can be displayed either separately
or together.
The windows of these fields may be re-sized and re-positioned in order to better organise the
screen.
If the two fields occupy the top half of the screen, you can pass from one to the other using the
"TAB" key.
A signalling bar in the upper part of a field indicates that you are working in that field (small icon
turns green if block is being used or not) as well as the number of pages it contains.
Within the supervision icon field or the programmable key field, you can move around using
the "PAGE UP" or "PAGE DOWN" keys. This is also the case for the cursors which appear in
the right hand side of the field which appears if additional pages are required for the number
of icons.
Up to 8 supervision icons and 12 programmable keys can be displayed on the main screen.
The programmable keys are distributed on 1 page with 8 keys and 1 page with the 4 remaining
keys.

2.2.2.1

Supervision icons
The supervision icons indicate the status of sets, network lines and trunk lines.
Example:

The attendant may point the mouse to an icon to find out its function and status.

Basic screens

Call handling field


The call handling field displays all the information necessary for handling a call.
There is a difference between the attendant set when it is free and when it is handling a call.
When the set is free, the call handling field on the left displays a list of calls arriving, while the
one on the right shows a list of calls being forwarded or on hold.
When the attendant set is active, the call handling field on the left concerns the main call in
progress and the one on the right shows information on an enquiry call.

2.2.4.1

Attendant set idle

When idle, the fields displayed are:


-

the field identifying the calls to be processed,

the field for calls which are waiting or being routed,

the call waiting counters (urgent and the total of calls).

It is important to note that the counters are present whether or not the attendant authorized
them during management. See chapter Customization .
1.

Calls arriving field


This field offers two modes for displaying incoming calls, list mode and counter mode.
Switchover between modes depends on the number of attendants using the system. To
determine this, a threshold (that can be configured in management) gives the maximum
number of attendants using the system that, when exceeded, results in console display
mode switching from list to counter mode.
Description of the two modes :

List mode:
Example:

2-6

3BA19877ENAA - Ed. 03 - January 2002 - Alcatel 4059 attendant console

Basic screens

The following information is displayed:

the incrementation of the counter,

the identity of the caller (Surname-First name),

his directory number.

Calls do not need to be dealt with according to their arrival order ; the operator may respond
as he pleases.
Additional user information will be displayed when the attendant picks up the line.

Counter mode:

Example:

This field only shows the total number of incoming calls to the attendant and urgent calls
waiting.
The attendant takes calls (lines) in the order in which they arrive, that is, the first call to
arrive is the first to be dealt with.

user, the status of the set his directory number and telephone category.
Remarks:
The icon dispays the status of the user set.
The information displayed changes according to the call handling.

Enquiry call information field:


Example:

This field gives you access to information concerning internal or external enquiry calls made
by the attendant (for example to transfer the main call).
The attendant will view a display showing the name, the directory number, the status of the
enquiry call correspondent with its service class and the nature of the call and its entity.
Remark: The information field for a call in progress is surrounded with a black border while the field
for the main caller is greyed out. You may move from one field to another by pressing the

System,

LDAP (only available if access to this directory has been set up),

ODBC (only available if access to this directory has been set up),

External 4755 (This directory is only available if the PC Client software is also installed on
the PC).

The Personal directory is the internal directory from the Store and redial directory window.
The System directory is the OmniPCX 4400 internal directory.
The other directories when they are available come from external sources (e.g.: the external
4755 directory is on a SUN workstation equipped with the 4755 software).

search for the name is launched in the directories selected by default in management (in
the option, directory then Call by name menus). Otherwise, press the Search button.
2.

by selecting a specific directory in the Directory menu. The proposed directories are:
Personal directory, System, Alcatel 4755 (if any), ODBC and/or LDAP directories (if
they have been configured).
Selecting one of these directories (e.g.: system directory) opens the following dialogue
box:
Example:

Enter the complete name and, if necessary, the first name of the searched subscriber.
Use the S2 or S4 keyboard keys (or the corresponding buttons in the dialogue box) to
respectively launch a search by name or by name and first name.
In the case of a search by initials, enter the first letter of the name then the first letter of
the first name. Use the S3 keyboard key (or the corresponding button in the dialogue box)
to launch the search.
To move from one field to another, use the "tab" key on the keyboard or the mouse.
Note: the principle is the same for the other directories. The only difference is the buttons used to launch
the subscriber search (Prefix (S2) and Word (S3)).
