KAREL may modify the content of this guide because of any improvement or
addition without any notice. The products may have some differences from the
functionality written in this guide according to the hardware revision or software
version.
PREFACE

This guide covers all the programs of DS200L, DS200, DS200S and DS200M
Systems. As the programming is one of the most important steps of setting up a
PABX system, programming must be made only by authorized personnel.

As programming affects the functionality of the PABX, programming made by

unauthorized people may cause undesired functions of your PABX.

Before starting the programming, the customer requests should be clearly noted
then relevant programming codes should be defined and then the PABX must be
programmed as explained in this guide.

The PABX can be programmed through the system supervisor telephone and
through a PC via the IDEA software. Via IDEA, programming can be made faster and
more effectively.

We wish you a successful programming session,

Karel Electronics

 I. PROGRAM
is a software for programming Karel digital exchanges of models DS200L,
DS200, DS200S and DS200M over computer, viewing previously entered programs, as
well as taking records of these programs and saving them in computer.

program includes the following files:

1) IDEA.EXE: The main program.
2) SERVICE_ENG.TXT: The text file that contains the list of user features, which are
in the DS series software.
3) SERVICES_SBSC_ENG.TXT: Used only in rural software.
4) AC_NAME.CCH: The file that contains the name of all ports.
In addition to these files, there are folders that form automatically after the use of
Tests and Reports Menu. These folders are explained in Tests and Reports Menu.

The program is presented within a CD that comes with each DS series system.
The cable that will be used for the exchange-computer connection is provided as well,
beside that CD.

has been designed to work on Windows 9x, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and
Windows XP operating systems, and it has a user friendly structure which can be used
even by the users with basic computer knowledge.
DS Series exchanges can be programmed through the first analog extension phone,
which has been determined as the Operator (starting extension number is 1110) by
dialing the codes specified for programming. However, programming medium and
large-scale exchanges through telephone may take quite long time and become
cumbersome. Therefore, utilizing to program the exchange would provide time
efficiency as well as facilitation and control of the programming through visual means.

Through , it is possible to do the entire programming that would be coded over

the Operator phone. Besides, some features that can be activated by all users through
their own phones (e.g. Follow Me) and some operator-specific features (e.g. the Night
Mode) can be activated. Some programming related to the system parameters, which
could not be entered through phone (e.g. LCR), can also be accomplished through
.

Most of the program functions provided by can be accomplished by dialing

several codes through telephones. Therefore, details of these functions are not
mentioned in this guide. However, the functions that are offered only by are
explained with details in the chapter “Menus of ” in this guide.

1
 II. INSTALLATION OF
II.1.SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The software installation is quite simple. Installation can be starting by running the
IDEA_INSTALL program that exists in the CD of . When “Next” button is
pressed in the first window, the following window appears:

Initially the folder where the file will be copied is asked. If desired, the shortcut of the
program can also be included in Desktop and Start menu. The same window asks for
definition of user name and password definition for full-authorised user of .
There is not any restriction for the user name, but the password must contain at least
8 characters and 2 letters together with 2 numbers must be included. These
definitions can later be changed as explained in User Operations menu.

If IDEA_INSTALL file is used on a PC on which has an already installed , the

program will be uninstalled.

2
II.2. CONNECTION TO THE SYSTEM
Different modes of operation can be selected when is used. This selection can
be made just after the program is run. Along with the selected operation mode, which
are explained in the next section in details, the connection to the system also differs.
- Serial port mode:
This mode connection is supported with CPUIII and older revisioned CPU cards.

In this mode, a cable connection must be established between the serial port of
the computer and the system. Each DS series system comes with such a cable.
That cable has a length of 5 meters. It has a 9-pin D-type connector at the
exchange and computer ends. The pins used on that cable and the carried signals
are in the table below:

The Exchange End (9-pin) Signal The Computer End (9-pin)

2 TX 2
3 RX 3
5 GND 5
The connection with system is established with connecting the computer end of
the cable to an unused serial port of the computer and connecting the exchange
end to the 9-pin, D-type connector K7 on the DS200 CPUKON or DS200S CPUKON
card.

IMPORTANT
The settings for the dip-switch SW1 on CPUKON card must be as follows in order to
establish the connection:
Dip-switches 1,2 ON
Dip-switches 3,4 OFF

- Net-Console server / LAN Adaptor mode:

In this mode, a cable connection between the computer and the system is not
necessary. The program connects to the system along with the IP address of
server computer or LAN Adaptor card. CPUIV cards require this connection mode.
In this mode, total number of active connections is controlled. If there are 32
current connections (for CPUIV) or 1 current connection (for older
CPU cards), a new connection is not allowed and the user is informed by a
warning message.
- Old LAN adaptor mode:
In this mode, a cable connection between the computer and the system is not
necessary. The program connects to the system along with the IP address of LAN
Adaptor card.

3
 IMPORTANT
The settings for the dip-switch SW1 on CPUKON card must be as follows in order to
establish the connection:
Dip-switches 1,2 OFF
Dip-switches 3,4 ON

- File mode-Offline:

In this mode, is not connected to an operating system.

- Modem mode:

In this mode, is not connected to an operating system. Instead, the

program connects to the system through a modem connected to CPUKON card of
the system. The cable that connects the CPUKON of the system and the modem
has a 0-pin D-type connector at the exchange end and 9-pin or 25-pin D-type
connector at the modem end. The pins on that that cable are in the table below:

The exchange end The Modem end (9-pin The Modem end (25-pin
(9-pin female) male) male)
2 3 2
3 2 3
5 5 7
no connection 4,6,7 (short circuit) 4, 20, 25 (short circuit)
Note: Those pins may be varying for different modems.
Some adjustments must have been made on the modem that will be used in
modem connection mode and that will be connected to CPUKON card of DS series
system, before establishing the connection.
The AT commands below must be loaded on the modem so that the external
modem can be used in remote programming of DS series system. (The modem
must be connected to a PC for this purpose.)
AT&F0 factory-default settings
ATS0=1 auto-answer after 1 ring
ATE0 local echo off
ATQ1 no result code
AT&D0 ignore DTR signal
ATS37=9 baudrate 9600
AT&W0 save to profile number 0
AT&Y0 start with profile 0
The AT commands given above may differ depending on the modem of modem. In
such a case, the correct AT commands must be entered by considering the
explanations in modem’s guide.

4
- Multiple connection:

For CPUIV cards, different connections from different PCs to a single

system can be established at a time. All users have to be using the same version
IDEA in this configuration.

5
 III. START UP
When runs for the first time, it is not possible to establish a connection
directly. Instead, the user is required to specify the connection settings.

When “New” button is pressed, the following window appears:

6
In this window, the user first gives a name to the connection that he will specify. Then,
he can select any of the tabs in “Connection type” field, in order to run the program in
one of the following modes:
- Serial port
- Net-Console server
- LAN Adaptor
- File Mode - Offline
- Modem connection
- DCC Connection (for rural applications only)
After selecting the operation mode and pressing “OK”, the user returns back to the
start up window where he can see the pre-defined connection settings.

7
After selecting one of the pre-defined connections, the user can run the program by
entering the user name and password.
Before establishing a connection, the user can:
- Define a new connection (serial port, Net-Console server, LAN Adaptor, File
Mode-Offline, Modem Connection, DCC Connection).
- Edit parameters of the selected connection.

- Copy a shortcut of to the desktop of the PC with that connection’s settings.

- Delete the selected connection.
There are also extra startup options. To select these startup options is not mandatory.
- Disable Log Messages While Connecting: For the systems with high capacity and
traffic load, if log messages are also active, may require a considerable
amount of time especially. This option can be used to temporarily deactivate those
log messages, only during the opening period of . Once the program is
opened, the program will continue logging.
- Start in LOG Only Mode: For the cases where checking system parameters is not
necessary but only receiving log messages is enough, this option can be used.
Since the program will not check the system parameters but only LOG window will
be opened, the process will be short. Messages can be logged after defining a file
name when prompted.
- Advanced: This button can be used to access following options:

8
 • If you are about to connect to a CPUIV card, you can access to that card’s
Web interface.
• You can access to KNEE program.
• You can upload software to a system that is connected to a serial port of the
PC. In order to have this facility working, WINBCP54.DLL file must be copied
to the folder where program file is copied. (This file is automatically
copied during installation.

III.1. SERIAL PORT MODE

This mode must be selected if the PC, on which is running, will be directly
connected to the exchange through its serial port. The user can run the program after
selecting the serial port number and baud rate as shown in figure below:

9
After connection is established, the serial port number can be seen by pointing the
field that shows the connection type.

III.2. NET-CONSOLE SERVER MODE

This mode must be selected if the PC, on which is running, will be connected to
a Net-Console Server program. In this case, the PC with does not need to be
connected to the exchange through its serial port. Instead, the PC with Net-Console
Server program is in communication with the exchange through its serial port. The
user can run the program after typing the IP address of Net-Console Server PC as
shown in figure below:

If the connection to exchange will be made through LAN Adaptor card and if the
software version of LAN Adaptor card is greater than or equal to ACF, IP address of
the LAN Adaptor card must be entered in this option.

10
After connection is established, the IP address of Net-Console Server PC or LAN
Adaptor card can be seen by pointing the field that shows the connection type.

III.3. LAN ADAPTOR MODE

This mode must be selected if the PC, on which is running, will be connected to
the exchange through a LAN Adaptor card and LAN Adaptor card has a software
version smaller than ACF. In this case, the exchange does not have to be connected to
a PC by means serial port. Instead, a LAN Adaptor card is installed on CPUKON card of
the exchange and PC working on the network operates through this LAN
Adaptor card. The user can run the program after typing the IP address and TCP/IP
communication port number of LAN Adaptor card (the IP address and TCP/IP
communication port number of LAN Adaptor card are defined on the exchange side) as
shown in figure below:

III.4. FILE MODE - OFFLINE

can be used to modify a previously formed parameter backup file of any
exchange. In this operation mode, the parameters of the backup file can be changed
and saved. Then the modified backup file can be loaded on the exchange. So, with the
help of this mode, an exchange can be programmed without the necessity to have a
real connection to the exchange.
In order to be able to use this mode, the parameter file -received from the real
exchange- must be copied on the PC. The user can run the program after selecting
this backup file as shown in the figure below. After this selection, all of the new
programming that will be made via will be saved on this parameter file.

11
When “Select” button is clicked, the following window appears and asks for the
location of the backup file on the PC:

The file location can be selected on the left side of this window. The right side of the
window gives the following information about the exchange, from which this backup
file was obtained:
- The time and date when backup file was formed.
- The version of main system software.

- The version of that was used to receive backup file.

- The version of the backup file inside structure.

12
- A drawing that shows the system configuration.
The backup file can be selected by using “Use file” button. After connection is
established, the location and name of the file can be seen by pointing the field that
shows the connection type.

III.5. MODEM CONNECTION MODE

This mode must be selected if the modem on the PC, on which is running, will
be connected to the modem on the exchange. In this case, the PC with does not
need to be connected to the exchange through its serial port. Instead, it works through
the modem connected to the CPUKON card of the exchange. After entering the serial
port number to which modem is connected on his PC and entering the telephone
number of the modem connected to the exchange as illustrated in the window below,
the user can open the program.

Information about the number to be entered in “Remote phone no” field can be seen
after pressing “?” button. In this field, character “W” can be used in case it is
necessary to wait for the dial tone from the connected party and character “,” can be
used to insert delays between the digits.

13
 IV. BASICS OF
IV.I. MAIN WINDOW
When runs, if the correct operation mode has been chosen, then messages
that demonstrate that the program is communicating with the exchange & receiving
some data are displayed on the opening screen. In the meantime, the program opens a
report file, namely DS200.LOG, within the folder it has been installed and records
some data into that file during operation.
When the program starts, the main window of the program is displayed on the screen.

This main window consists of three parts: The menu items on the left side, the drawing
on the right side and menu toolbar at the bottom.

- The MENU ITEMS on the left side are explained in the chapter “Menus of ”.
- The drawing on the RIGHT SIDE turns into menu entry window, depending on the
selected menu item.

14
- The TOOLBAR at the bottom shows the operation mode of , the software
version of and main software version of the system in order. Besides, the
figure (or ) shows that the system is in Day Mode (or Night Mode).

If the sign on this part is double clicked, a window that shows the number of
transferred bytes is seen:

- The LOG part of the toolbar has a special use, by double-clicking on this field, the
following window appears:

15
The window consists of two tabs: Log and Settings.
“Log” tab of this window shows the monitor messages that finally form up
DS200.LOG file. (The system records the entire monitor messages in DS200.LOG
file, even when LOG window is not opened. In fact, LOG window is just an on-line
screen, which shows the contents of DS200.LOG file.)
The messages in this window can be selected by mouse, then be copied and
pasted into a text file. The window has the following options on its toolbar:
• Monitored records: When “Current session” is clicked, the messages, after
LOG window is opened, can be seen. When “All log records” is clicked, the
whole DS200.LOG file is displayed.
• Active: When this box is checked, the messages start flowing on the screen.
When this box is unchecked, then the messages are still recorded to
DS200.LOG file but they are not shown on the screen.
• Close: This button closes the LOG window.
Right clicking on the messages, as shown in the next figure, can be used to modify
their format. With these options, it is possible to increase/decrease the fonts of
the messages, delete / copy them or directly export them to a file. (The “Clear”
option does not erase the messages from DS200.LOG, it only erases them on the
screen.)

16
“Settings” tab of this window offers two options for formatting the messages while
they appear in “Log” tab.

a) Highlighting:
Log lines are searched for the keyword. Matching lines are styled according to the
settings of color, background or font style for that keyword.

17
 “Whole Line” / “Word Only” options can be used to apply the format change only to
the keyword or the whole line that contains that keyword.
+ and – buttons can be used to define new keywords or delete an existing keyword.
b) Filters:
If desired, only the messages that contain certain keywords can be listed. Those
keywords can be defined or deleted by + and – buttons. There are also additional
filter expressions. These expressions and their operations are:
<!> (exclude – not)
<&> (and)
<Ι> (or).
Parenthesis can be preferred in order to apply a priority between operations.
Example:
SETUP<&>(<!>DMA) : Lines which include SETUP and do not include DMA.

IV.2. COMMON FUNCTIONS

has some general-purpose options used in all of its menus. These options,
which exist under “Operations” button on the bottom of the screen in all menus,
function as explained below:
- “Program”:
In order to activate this option, value of at least one of the parameters of the
related menu should be modified. By clicking that option when it is active, the
entire modifications that have already been made are uploaded to the exchange
(or to the active file).
- “Refresh”:
When this option is clicked, the most up-to-date parameter values of the related
menu are reloaded from the exchange (or from the active file) and displayed on
the screen. Especially if programming is made through the system supervisor
phone while is used simultaneously, then that option can be useful to view
the latest forms of the programs entered through the phone.
- “OK” :
If this option clicked after the sub-parameters related to a menu have been
programmed, then the modifications are accepted and the user proceeds back to
the previous menu.
- “Undo all” :
When this option is clicked (before Program or OK options are clicked),
modifications made on the related menu are cancelled, the menu is closed and
the user proceeds back to the previous menu.

18
- “Cancel” option:
This options appears in some menus when the related parameters are being
reloaded from the exchange (or from the active file). If it is clicked, the reloading
process stops.
- “Print” option:
When this option is pressed, a preview window that shows the list of the features
to be printed is seen. If desired, page formatting can also be made. Then, the
features can be printed or the operation can be canceled.
- “Copy Parameters To” option:
This option automatically brings Parameter Copying Menu.
- “Save as CSV” and “Import CSV File” options:
The parameter values in table operations can be recorded in a CSV file and for
some menus (like Account Codes) a previously formed CSV file content can be
programmed in the current session.

IV.3. SEARCHING FUNCTION

In menus, many programming features are listed in alphabetical order. The
user can navigate among these features and make the programming upon his will.
However, in some cases, to have the list of features on a specific topic might be
preferred for the sake of easy programming. These functions can be reached as
follows:

: The user can enter a keyword after clicking this button. Then, the
features that have names including this keyword will be listed.

: When the menu is first opened, “ALL FACILITIES” is seen in

this box and all of the features are listed. If the features are listed as per a certain
keyword, then “-Search facility-” appears. The other options in this box are groups of
related features and these groups are separated with titles. The user can list the
features according to these search criterions.

19
 : Lists the features according to the previous search criterion. With repetitive
use, “All Facilities” can be finally seen.
: Lists the features according to the next search criterion. With repetitive use, the
features can be finally seen according to the last search criterion.

: Clicking this button opens the following window, which lets the user to define his
own list of features so that he can use later:

From the rightmost list that includes the whole features, the user can select the
desired features to form his own list using left arrow key (<). This new list is shown in
the middle of the screen and a name can be given to the list on the leftmost part. In the
list that appears in the middle, a feature can be first selected and then deleted from
the list using right arrow key (>). Up and down error keys (/) at the bottom of the
middle window can be used to change the position of the selected feature in the list.
The feature lists formed with this method can be used during future sessions of
as well.

IV.4. COPY/PASTE FUNCTION

In some menus (e.g. port parameters), it may be preferred to copy the programming
values of the current menu, in order to apply the same settings in another menu. In
order to provide this option, the “search toolbar” has the following two icons in these
menus:

Copy icon:
By clicking this icon, the following screen appears:

20
The list shows the features in alphabetical order, with the following options:
- The list can be modified using the “search toolbar” so that all features, or the
features selected in the previous window or the features of a previously formed
list can be shown.
- The features can be listed alphabetically in ascending or descending order using
 and  buttons.
- The features can be selected either one by one, by clicking on their check boxes,
or totally at once by clicking on the check box near the expression “FACILITY /
PARAMETER”.

- The selected features -that will be copied- can be saved using the button of
“Lists” field, and then giving a name to these features.
- A previously formed selection list can be called in “Lists” part.

- A called selection list can be deleted using the button of “Lists” part.
Paste icon:
After copying the parameters in a previous menu, this icon can be used to apply the
same values to the current menu. As the mouse is pointed on the icon, the hint box
writes the list of the features that will be pasted.

21
 V. MENUS OF
The menus of are listed in the left side of main program window. Contents of
all menus are explained below, with respect to the order they appear on the screen.

V.1. CONFIGURATION MENU

With the selection of this item, the following window appears:

This window includes a drawing that resembles 6 racks with card slots. The empty
slots and racks are shown in black. The cards -together with their names- of the
system configuration are shown in different colors.
There is an information window at the bottom of the system drawing. The main
system’s software version, the number of general purpose expansion cards and the
number of extensions/external lines can be seen in this window.
The buttons near the drawing have different functions:

- : It is used to name the towers in DS200L configuration.

22
- : It is used to check the modifications in system configuration and then to
transfer those changes to the screen.

- : It is used to print the configuration (with all cards).

- : (Appears only in systems with CPU IV cards) It is used to access Web

interface.

- : It is used to Access KNEE program.

- : (Appears only in systems with CPU IV cards) It is used to stop the system.

V.2. SYSTEM PARAMETERS MENU

The facilities that can be programmed within this menu are valid for all the system and
the details for most of them can be found in DS Series Programming Guide or in DS
Series User’s Guide in operator-only features. The following facilities can be activated
only through :
- ANM active (Automatic night mode) [Yes/No]: In order to activate Night Mode
between specific hours or on a specific day, this parameter must be programmed
as “Yes”. By default, it is deactivated.
- Auxiliary clock: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether the
auxiliary clock (which is used for synchronization with an external device for
applications like video conference) is activated or not.
- Export Name of Incoming Number from Phonebook: If the calling party number is
recorded in system’s phonebook, the name in the phonebook can be presented to
called extensions.
- Hotel Room / Minibar Service is [Permitted/Permitted only at check-in]: If it is set
to “Permitted” (default value), Minibar Account facility can be activated after
check-out. If it is set to “Permitted only at check-in”, Minibar Account cannot be
activated after check-out.
- Incoming Call Filter: The LCR filter that will be applied to the incoming numbers
received through network-mode lines. If an incoming call filter is defined under
port parameters of a line, in this case only port based filter will be used.
- KTS active: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether the
serial data line (which is used for Karel feature phones) is working or not.

26
- Music on hold: This parameter is used to activate music to be played to the parties
put on hold. If the system has a CPU IV card, internal music source on CPU IV card
can be activated as well.
- NC_Server active: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether
is running through Net-Console Server program or not.
- Outgoing Call Filter: The LCR filter that will be applied to the calling party
numbers in the outgoing calls established through digital network-mode lines.
- Remote modem mode: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows
whether connection to system via modem can be established or not.
- S. Operator no: This parameter cannot be programmed. It shows the access code
of the operator.
- Subscriber Fast Alarm [Yes/No]: If it is set to “No” (default value), an off-hook
extension will receive dial tone for 20 seconds and error tone for 1 minute. Then,
alarm will be produced and error tone will continue. If it is set to “Yes”, an off-
hook extension will receive dial tone for 20 seconds and error tone for 15 seconds.
Then, alarm will be produced and the extension will start receiving silence.
- VOIP Call Hold/Transfer Info: This parameter is functional in SIP connections to a
remote system which cannot make call hold - transfer as per SIP standards. For
these cases, the parameter must be deactivated so that hold and transfer is made
in control of DS series system.
- Waiting Call Warning Tone [Long beep/Short beep/None]: The warning tone heard
by extensions when they receive a second call as they are already engaged in
another one can be programmed as long beep (default value), short beep or totally
deactivated.

27
V.3. PORT LIST (ACCESS CODES) MENU

The main window of this menu is a table showing the following:

- Card: The cards’ types and the cards’ rack & slot numbers.
- Port no: Physical port numbers of the channels.
- Access code: Access codes of cards’ channels. These access codes can be
changed by double-clicking and then typing the new access code.
- Name: Names of cards’ channels. A name can be defined/modified by double-
clicking and then typing the new name. This name appears on the FT20, LT200(-
H), ST20 and digital Karel telephones that run with KTS protocol. Telephones with
Caller ID facility that are connected to EX200 (0/16C) card also see these names.
These names are also used in calls through network mode VOIP and PRI lines.
These names are used on FT20-4E telephones with ABH or later version software
when a forwarded internal call is received in the following format. The phonebook
entries for the extensions must be identical with the names defined in
program in order to have this facility working.

Calling extension number and name

then its parameters can then be modified.

31
Port number appears when a port is selected from the list:

The programming parameters of a port can be modified in this window. This third level
is the final point for the first two levels indeed. The details about most of facilities that
can be programmed within this window can be found in DS Series Programming Guide
or DS Series User’s Guide. The following facilities can be activated only through
:
For extensions:
- ARS (Automatic route selection) access level: This parameter cannot be
programmed. It just shows the call authority level of the extension, which will be
valid as long as LCR is activated on the system. (Please see LCR-ARS Menu.)
- Call Answering Method [Automatic from queue/By selecting from queue]: NT30D
users can select the call answering method with this parameter. When the default
“automatic” value is used, upon lifting the handset first incoming call will
automatically be answered. If “selecting from queue” is used, the NT30D user will
see an incoming call list upon lifting the handset and then he can select any call
from the list to answer.
- Call Splitting: It lets the user to switch between two calls easily by Hold/Flash
keys.
- Common pool authority [Yes/No]: When “Yes” is programmed, the extension can
call all common pool numbers including the ones beyond his call authority level.
Otherwise (default value), he will be authorised to call common pool numbers only
within his authority.
- Dialing Type [DTMF/Pulse]: If “DTMF” is used (default value), the telephone can
dial both DTMF and DP digits. If “Pulse” is used, only DP digits can be dialed.
- Echo Canceler Usage [Disabled/Enabled]: It is used to activate echo canceler
facility on DECT extensions. The default value is “Disabled”.

32
- Extension Line Access Group: Extensions can be included in one of 128 different
access groups so that they can access only to the lines that serve their group. This
definition can be made separately for Night and Day modes.
- KTS device: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether the
extension is using an LT200/FT20/DSS module connected to Karel serial data line
or not.
- Message waiting: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether
the extension has new messages left at his telephone or not.
- NC_Monitor on: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether the
extension is currently using his Net-Console client software or not.
- PBX: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows the next extension’s
access code in the selected extension’s PBX group.
- Permanent absent message exists: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just
shows whether the extension has left a temporary absent message to his
telephone or not.
- Permanent reminder with message exists: This parameter cannot be
programmed. It just shows whether the extension has activated the feature
“Permanent Reminder Service with Message” or not.
- Reminder with message exists: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just
shows whether the extension has activated the feature “Reminder Service with
Message” or not.
- Quick Call [Disabled/Enabled] : This parameter is used to determine whether the
extension can use the single digits in Quick Call Table or not. By default,
“Disabled” is used.
- Temporary absent message exists: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just
shows whether the extension has left a temporary absent message to his
telephone or not.
For lines:
- ARS (Automatic route selection) authority threshold: This parameter cannot be
programmed. It just shows the call authority level of the external line, which will
be valid as long as LCR is activated on the system. (Please see LCR-ARS Menu.)
) ARS for a line is operational only for the “network-mode” lines. If a call is
received through a network-mode line and then an external call is
established via LCR in the same call, the ARS for this network-mode line will
be checked.
- Enable External Calls Through VOIP Lines When LCR is not Used: This parameter
is added as a precaution against SIP attacks. To eliminate uncontrolled external
line use, access to PSTN lines through VoIP lines can be controlled with this
parameter. It affects access to PSTN lines in incoming calls from remote systems
and access to PSTN lines by telephony applications that use VoIP gateway cards
as servers. It is operational when LCR is not active.

33
- In error state: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows whether
there is a problem in accessing this line (due to a programming or physical
connection problem) or not.
- In Service for Extension Groups: The extension access groups (at most 128
groups) that can access to this line can be programmed with this parameter. A
single line can be programmed to serve multiple extension access groups. The
groups can be defined separately for Day and Night modes.
- Incoming call filter: The LCR filter that will be applied to the incoming numbers
received through network-mode Only port based filter will be used even when an
incoming call filter is defined under system parameters as well,
- PBX: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows the next line’s access
code in the selected line’s PBX group.
- Special Line (do not ask password): Defines password use on the line during
access from a locked phone
- VoIP Slave IP: This parameter cannot be programmed. It just shows the IP
address of the VoIP card that the line belongs.

34
V.6. PBX GROUPS MENU
This menu is used to form PBX groups for extensions and lines. The windows for
extensions and lines sub-options and the process of forming groups are the same.
Therefore, only the PBX groups of extensions are explained in the following sections.
This menu uses the following window:

After Day or Night mode is selected in the field on the top of the window, the desired
extensions should be selected by the mouse from the list at the right side of the
window. When an empty row in “Groups” is selected and « is clicked, the PBX group is
formed. In the “Selected group” part, the position of an extension can be changed by
the arrow keys (and) and the extension can be removed from the PBX group by the
key. Number of ports in the PBX group can be seen at the bottom part of the
window. Marking the check-box selects all of the listed extensions. Moreover, the
selected extensions can be saved as a list using the button.

Please make sure not to include an extension/line in more than one PBX group.
The details about this facility can be found in DS Series Programming Guide.

35
V.7. CALL PICK UP GROUPS MENU
This menu is used to form call pick groups for extensions with the following window:

After Day or Night mode is selected in the field on the top of the window, the desired
extensions should be selected by the mouse from the list at the right side of the
window. When an empty row in “Groups” is selected and « is clicked, the call pick
group is formed. In the “Selected group” part, the position of an extension can be
changed by the arrow keys (and) and the extension can be removed from the
group by the key. Marking the check-box selects all of the listed extensions.
Moreover, the selected extensions can be saved as a list using the button.

Please make sure not to include an extension/line in more than one call pick up group.
The details about this facility can be found in DS Series Programming Guide.

36
V.8. RESTRICTED/PERMITTED NUMBERS MENU
This menu programs the eight different external call authority levels, by defining the
restricted and permitted numbers for all of these levels.

The window has two options for defining eight restricted or permitted numbers of at
most four digits. The details about these facilities can be found in DS Series
Programming Guide.

37
V.9. PHONE LOCK TABLE MENU
This menu defines eight different levels for extensions so that they can use these
levels to lock their telephones for activating the facilities listed in “SERVICE_ENG.TXT”
file, or for dialing the digits defined in LCR-Leading Digits Table.

The details about this facility can be found in DS Series Programming Guide.

38
V.10. MEMORIES MENU
This menu offers the user two options in order to handle common pool of the system
and private pools of the extensions.
COMMON POOL

1000 common pool numbers of the exchange can be viewed and modified in this
window.

39
PRIVATE POOLS

10 private pool numbers of each extension can be viewed and modified in this window.
In order to do that, the extension number must be specified in “Extension” field. The
extension can be selected from the list or searched after clicking the “?” key:
In both of memory windows (common & private), the user can also delete all of the
numbers by right clicking on them.
Names can also be defined for the common/private pool numbers. Those names are
stored in the files PLCMM_NAMES.PCMN and PLPRV_NAMES.PPRV which are under
the folder of .
The details about entering and using common/private pool numbers can be found in
DS Series User’s Guide.

40
V.11. LCR (LEAST COST ROUTING)-ARS
(AUTOMATIC ROUTE SELECTION) MENU
This menu is used to define LCR (Lease Cost Routing) – ARS (Automatic Route
Selection) structure, which is one of the most superior features of the DS series
systems.
With this feature, the system automatically figures out the least costly route according
to the call type and establishes the connection through that route. Hence, that feature
provides means to reduce telephone expenses. Meanwhile, the extension makes a
normal line call, being unaware of such automatic routing operations.
In order to make use of these automatic selections; the system must be programmed
accordingly. That programming can be made only by .

V.11.A. FILTERS TABLE

This window, which is given below, is used to define the filters that will be applied to
the number dialed through the LCR. These filters will be used as an input in “Route
Table” window.

NO: This is the number of the filter to be defined and it is automatically defined by
. At most 32 different filters can be defined.

41
FILTER: It determines the sort of modifications to be made with the number dialed by
the extension, according to the starting digit number. The number of the filter that is to
be defined will be entered in the Routing Table.
Filter definitions are done by establishing several sequences consisting of characters
and figures. Each character has specific functions as a filter element. There are
characters and sample digits following them are given in the table below.

Sequence Meaning
R3 The first 3 digits of the dialed number are discarded. Here,
the number to be entered should be in the range 1..9.
[440] If the starting digits of the dialed number are 440, then they
are discarded. Otherwise, no action is taken.
%2 Two digits from the dialed number are added to the number
to be transmitted to the line. Here, the number to be entered
should be in the range 1..9.
D2 Adds 2 wait periods to the number to be transmitted to the
line (1). Here, the number to be entered should be in the
range 1..9.
C Adds a single wait period to the number to be transmitted to
the line (2).
A Exactly transfers the remaining digits of the dialed number
to the number to be transmitted to the line.
O0 Routing will be made by the special operator.
X Deletes the entire remaining digits of the dialed number.
123 Adds 123 to the number to be transmitted to the line.
E3 Used for calling Centrex exchanges. The number can be 3, 4
or 5. It is used to send that much right-most digits of the
dialled number (e.g. E3 sends the 3 right-most digits of the
dialled number).
(1)
When the exchange detects a wait character while calling a number, it interprets the
first wait character as ‘Wait until receiving “the connection has been established”
signal from the other party’. In this case, if there are other digits to be dialed, then they
are transmitted after the call has been established.
(2)
The wait character is interpreted as ‘Wait until receiving “the connection has been
established” signal from the other party’.

42
Filter groups can be formed from those sequences. For example:

Filter Dialed number Number to be transmitted

to the line
R2987D2 49123 987,,123
R2%2987D2 49123 12987,,3
R2987%2D2 49123 98712,,3
R2987AD2 49123 987123,,
R2987D2%1X 49123 987,,1
[55]A49 5412 541249
[55]A49 5512 1249

V.11.B. ROUTE TABLE

This window defines the operations according to the numbers dialed by the extensions
for making external calls. When extensions dial numbers, the exchange checks those
numbers one by one. If those numbers coincide with the ones that are in the Leading
Digits Table, then the exchange takes the actions in the related line of the Route Table.
The extensions are unaware of those operations. Therefore, that feature is called the
Automatic Route Selection.

43
ROUTE NUMBERS: Three alternative routes can be created for various actions according
to the number dialed by an extension. Those appear as Route 1, Route 2 and Route 3 in
the Route Table window, and they are divided into three parts at the top of the window.

NO: It is the route number, which is automatically set by . It can take values in
the range 1..32.
LINE: The system sends the digits dialed by an extension through this external line.
“Line” field must always be defined in order to defined other fields of Route Table. The
external line number can be selected from the list that appears by double-clicking on
this field.
FILTER NO: It is the filter number that will be used in the related route line. That filter
number is the parameter that appears as “No” in the Filters Table. The filter number
can be selected from the list that appears by double-clicking on this field.
A.L.( ACCESS LEVEL): Not only the least costly route, but also the most reliable route can
be selected by the LCR-ARS feature sometimes. That route may be more costly than
the other routes; hence, not all the extensions may be allowed to make use of that
route. The value in this field displays the minimum authorization level necessary for
using the route. For instance, if there is 7 in this field, the extensions with the access
level 7 or higher can use that route, whereas the level 6 or lower levels are not
sufficient to use the route. (Please see LCR - ARS Menu– Access Levels in order to
define access levels for extensions.). The access level (0…63) can be selected from the
list that appears by double-clicking on this field.
WT (WARNING TONE): It determines whether an extension will hear a warning tone from
handset in case somehow the 2nd or 3rd routes is to be used. By this way, the extension
knows the line access is not through the most convenient route, but through an
alternative route instead. The warning tone can be activated by double-clicking on this
field.

44
V.11.C. ROUTE PLAN TABLE MENU
This window, which is given below, defines the time intervals during which LCR routes
will be valid. At most 16 different tables can be formed using this option.

STARTING TIME: The routes for the programmed days start at the time entered at this
field (in hh:mm format) by double-clicking. The 7 weekdays are programmed in the
fields next to “Starting Time” field.

DAYS: Route numbers (The “No” field in the Route Table), which will be valid starting
from the time entered in “Starting Time” field, are entered in these fields by double-
clicking.

45
V.11.D. LEADING DIGITS TABLE MENU
The routes that the exchange will apply according to the numbers dialed by the
extension is defined in this window, which is given below:

NO: It is the number of the row. It can take values in the range 1…128. The row
numbers are automatically defined by .
By use of up – down buttons on the top part of the window, it is possible to change the
order of leading digit rows.
LEADING DIGITS: The group of digits that are to be considered by the exchange during the
checking of numbers dialed by the extension. The digits can be defined in this field by
double-clicking in one of the following formats:
Start: If the number dialed by an extension starts with those digits, then the route for
that number is applied. If even a single digit fails to match the definition, then the
route does not apply.
Range: A lower and an upper limit are defined. If the dialed number is within this
range, then the corresponding route is applied. The entire digits must be dialed for
that application. For instance, suppose that the defined value is in the range 1200-
1500. In that case, that route is selected if the extension dials, say, 1300, but not 13.
Other: The entered values must not match the values in the other lines except this line
and must start with the number specified in this line, for the corresponding route to be
applied.

46
ROUTE: The route or the routing plan to be applied when the defined numbers are
dialed is selected by double-clicking.
SECO (SENDING COMPLETE): This field has effect when the leading digit is defined in
“Range” format. If set as 1, the system sends the digits that match with the defined
range immediately to the C.O. If set as 0, the system waits for 4 seconds after each
dialed digit and then sends all the digits to the C.O. if no digit is dialed within a 4
seconds period. The value of this field can be set by double-clicking.

V.11.E. ACCESS LEVELS MENU

When LCR-ARS feature is activated, the system checks the dialled digits with respect
to the LCR routes and sends the digits to the C.O. accordingly. While doing so, the
authority levels for routes are also checked and only the extensions that have the
required authority can make their dialing through the defined routes. The following
window is used to define these authority levels, which will be valid as long as LCR -
ARS is active (when LCR-ARS is not active, the normal external call authority levels
are checked.)

The access levels can be defined separately for Day and Night Modes by double-
clicking in the related fields. The levels can be set in range 0…63.
In this window, there are also three options to see/modify access levels of all port, only
extensions or only lines. (The access level of a line is operational only when it is used
in “network mode” for a connection with another system and when this second system
is using the lines of your system.)

47
V.11.F. LCR-ARS EXAMPLE
Before starting with LCR-ARS programming, planning is required considering the
entire parameters in the tables mentioned above. For example:
Suppose a GT20 GSM Gateway device has been connected to the lines 7200 and 7201 of
the DS200 exchange. The line 7200 is connected to the GSM operator with the code
0542 (That operator supports calls with the codes 0543 and 0546 as well) and the line
7201 is connected to the GSM operator with the code 0532 (That operator supports
calls with the codes 0533 and 0535 as well.)
One does not need to dial the prefix 0542 to call a number beginning with the code
0542 on the operator “0542”.
Likewise, one does not need to dial the prefix 0532 to call a number beginning with the
code 0532 on the operator “0532”.
The extensions are required to make their GSM calls over the GT20 device. However, if
the entire lines of GT20 are busy during a GSM call, then certain extensions will be
enabled to call through the normal CO line with number 701. The access level of the
extensions that will be allowed to make use of the normal line is required to be at least
10. In that case, the extensions will receive the warning tone.
In the meantime, it is required that other GSM calls starting with 05xx shall be made
through the operator with the code 0542.
Furthermore, all the calls except for GSM numbers must be established through
analog line 701.
In that case, the following should be considered for the planning:
1) Starting digit numbers:
90542, 90543, 90546, 90532, 90533, 90535, 905 else (9 is the line access code)
2) The lines to be used:
For 90542, 90543, 90546, 905 else: 7200,
For 90532, 90533 and 90535: 7201.
3) Ranges in time and day base:
None
4) Filters:
R5 for 90542 and 90532 (In order to discard the entire prefix)
R1 for the others (In order to discard 9 only, which is the line access code)

48
5) A.L.
0 for the 1st route,
10 for the 2nd route.
6) WT
Let the extensions receive the warning tone for the cases when 2nd route is selected:
Present.
The programming can start after determining all those.
First of all, the Filters table is opened and the filters are defined:

Then the Route Table is created:

There is no need for a Routing Plan Table, since there is no setting related to date and
time.

49
Finally, the Leading Digits Table is created:

So, all the programming necessary at startup has been completed.

V.12. ACCOUNT CODES TABLE MENU

This menu is using the following window to define forced account codes and related
programming facilities:

50
The values can be set by double-clicking in the related field. The details about the

by each digit dialled by the external party on Auto Attendant line. The values can be
defined by double-clicking in the related field.

The most of the operations that can be programmed within this menu can be found in
DS Series Programming Guide. However, there are two more facilities that can be
activated only through .
“Collect Access Code-Access With Single Key” and “Collect Access Code-Next Menu”.
These facilities are useful when the numbers to be used by external callers coincide
with existing extension access codes.
If the caller presses that number and waits for a determined duration, then the
extension in programmed in “Phone” field rings; or the caller will be forwarded to the
specified menu. Otherwise, the caller can prefer not to wait until the end of that
duration and he can continue to dial numbers in order to access the extension he likes.
This duration is defined by “Interdigit Timeout” field of ACD Menu – General
Parameters.

57
V.16. UAC (UNIVERSAL ACCESS CODES) TABLE
1/ 2 MENU
These menu appear if there are EX200 (1S2/0), EX200 (1R2/0), EX200 (1CAS3B/0), VoIP
gateway or EX200 (8T0/0) ISDN line cards on the system. The menus are actually the
same; they are separated to ease the programming of too many rows. The menus give
the list of CO numbers of all of these cards and the parameters for these numbers in
the following window:

The details about the facilities that can be programmed within this window can be
found in DS Series Programming Guide. As exceptions, following facilities are
available only on :
a) Up – down buttons can be used to change the position of a row.
b) “Search” button can be used to find a specific ringing extension, fax extension, or
direct number.
c) If “Line” field is left empty, then the external number of that row is used in all
calls through digital lines.
d) “Operations” button offers assembled programming:

58
With this option, successive external numbers can be assigned to extensions or they
can be erased. In this successive programming, the initial external number and
extensions number are given and then their increments are specified.
FROM LINE – TO LINE: Numbers of first – last rows of UAC table that are going to be
programmed.
STARTING VALUE FOR EXTERNAL NUMBER: The first external number that will be assigned to
an extension.
STARTING VALUE FOR ACCESS CODE: The first extension access code that will have a direct
external number.
INCREMENT: The increment of external number/extension access code.
LINE : The access code of the first line on the digital line card.
ERASE: Used in order to erase all the numbers in the given range.

V.17. BIDIRECTIONAL BLOCKED CALL

EXTENSIONS MENU
This menu forms 31 different Tenant Groups of extensions that can call only the other
extensions of the same group.

59
The details about this facility can be found in DS Series Programming Guide.

60
V.18. ALARM TABLE MENU
This menu offers a facility that can be activated only through , and it is used to
activate alarm on certain functions.
This menu uses the following window:

The following alarm functions can be programmed:

Extension Fail: The error when an extension has left his telephone off-hook.
PRI Synchronization Error: The error when there is a failure on PRI synchronization.
Card Error (General): The error when a card has been powered off.
Card Error (EVM) / Card Error (SS7): Reserved for future use.
Analog Trunk Error / E&M Trunk Error / E&M PLC Error: The error when the lines are
out of service or there is no dial tone on the lines.
Rural Extension Test Error: The error when there is failure in EX200 (0/16R) tests.
Main Power Supply Error: The error when there is 220 V mains failure.
CPU Card Error: The error when the system is working on the redundant CPU.
VOIP Link Error: The error when there is a disconnection with VoIP gateway card.

61
VOIP Register Error: The error when registration to a Long Distance Service Provider
through VoIP gateway cannot be established.
SIP Extension SW Error: The error when there is a failure in IP extension software.
IP Trunk SW Error: The error when there is a failure in IP line software.
The following media can be programmed for showing alarm:
FT Alarm: The LCD of FT20 connected to the first extension of the system.
CM Alarm: INFO file that is a sub-file of Net-CM program.

LOG Alarm: DS200.LOG file of .

Alarm Lamp: The Alarm Module of the system. Within this option, the LED on which
alarm will be displayed, can also be selected.
Relay Alarm: The relay(s) on CPUKON card. Within this option, the relay number can
also be selected (for DS200 systems).
KTS Alarm: The LEDs of fast dial keys on FT20 / LT200 (-H) and DSS modules. These
LEDs start blinking when the assigned ports are problematic (like dial tone failure, or
synchronization lost, etc…)

V.19. EXTERNAL NUMBERS MENU

This menu is used to discriminate the Caller ID information in incoming external calls
and to reach Centrex exchanges in outgoing external calls.
This menu uses the following window:

62
LINE: This is the row number and it is automatically defined by IDEA. The table contains
500 rows.
EXTERNAL NUMBER: Called party number (for outgoing external calls) or calling party
number (for incoming external calls) of at most 16 digits.
TYPE: This field is operational only for outgoing calls. It can take values the “Normal”
and “Centrex”. When “Centrex” is used, last 3, 4 or 5 digits of the dialed digits are sent
to the C.O. (depending on the LCR route). Centrex operation can take place only on
lines where Centrex operation is activated and only when a digit that matches a range
of Leading Digits Table is dialed by extensions.
Note: Centrex type is operational only when LCR is active on the system and
leading digits are defined in “Range” format.
ACCESS CODE TO BE FORWARDED: This field is operational only for incoming calls. It is
used to define the ringing extension for the calls coming through the specified calling
party number.
TABLE PRIORITY: It determines the priority of External Numbers table. It can take values
“Low” and “High”:

a) When the value is “High”, if a call is received from the specified number, the
call rings on the extension defined on this table.

b) When it is “Low”:

- The ringing extension will ring for the calls coming through analog lines.

63
 - If the called number is defined in UAC table, then the related extension of
UAC table will ring for the calls coming through digital lines.
- If the called number is not defined in UAC table, the extension in External
Number field will ring for the calls coming through digital lines.
- Even if the line is marked as Auto Attendant or DISA line, instead of Auto
Attendant or DISA operation, the extension in External Number field will
ring for the calls coming through digital lines.
EXAMPLES:
When External Numbers table is filled as follows to have 4441126 as Centrex number,
and 4440565 is a Normal number with 1120 as the ringing extension:

Example 1:

Route 1 is used for range 90000000 – 99999999 with the filter R1E4, meaning that the
first 9 (line access code) will be erased and then the last 4 digits of the dialed number
will sent to the external line. The line of this route is marked as Centrex.
So, when an extension dials 94441126, the digits 1126 will be sent to C.O.

64
Example 2:
There is an incoming call from the number 4440565 through PRI line. The UAC table is
filled as follows to have the calls for 4407263 ringing on extension 1111:

Extension 1111 will ring when:

- The called party number is 4407263 and the calling number is different from
4440565, or

- The called party number is 4407263, the calling party number is 4440565, but the
priority of External Numbers table is set as low.
Extension 1120 will ring when:

- The called party number is 4407263, the calling party number is 4440565, the
priority of External Numbers table is set as low but Auto Attendant or DISA
operation is active.

- The called party number is 4407263, the calling party number is 4440565 and the
priority of External Numbers table is set as high.

- The called party number is not 4407263, the calling party number is 4440565 and
the priority of External Numbers table is set as high.
In the calls coming through digital lines, if the called party number is not 4407263 and
the calling party number is not 4440565, then the line will be disconnected or ring on
the specified extension depending on the programming.

65
V.20. QUICK CALL TABLE MENU
This menu is used to assign a single digit as the access code of a port or activation
code of a service. The extensions that can use these single digits are determined by
the extension based parameter “Quick Call”.
This menu uses the following window:

KEY: The single digit to be used by extensions.

NUMBER: Access code of extension/line or activation code of a feature.
Example:
In the above figure, when an extension with “Quick Call” authority presses 0, if he
waits more than 3 seconds, he will call extension 1110. When he presses 1, he can
continue to dial more digits; or he can wait for 3 seconds and the activate Follow Me to
extension 1111.
Note: This table is prior than the Access Table of the entire system. If the single digit is
already used as an access code of a port, the extensions that can make quick calls will
not be able to reach that port again.
E.g. If 0 is access code of an extension and 0 is programmed as quick call button for
extension 1111, when an extension with “Quick Call” authority presses 0, he will call
1111.

66
V.21. QUICK CALL BUTTONS MENUS (FOR ST26-
ST30 AND FOR NT30D)
This menu is used to program fast dial buttons of digital phones that run with KTS
protocol. The contents of the buttons can be saved in a CSV file as well. Two different
menus with the same function are given to program ST26&ST30 and NT30D.
Both of the menus use the same window, where the extension number is selected
from the list on top. After selection of function as “primary” or “secondary”, the table
can be filled with the available programming options.

V.22. PHONEBOOK
This menu is used to program phonebook entries and fast dial buttons of ST26 and
ST30. The contents of the buttons can be saved in a CSV file as well.
This menu uses the following window, where the extension number is selected from
the list on top.

67
V.23. VIRT. SBSC. SETTINGS MENU
When your system has a DECT concentrator, a sub exchange or digital/ISDN
extensions in gateway mode, or IP extensions and lines will be registered to the
system some definitions are necessary so that the extensions of the other system can
be processed just like regular extensions of your DS series system. Those definitions
can be made in the following window:

68
To be able to make programming within this window, it is necessary to first program
the virtual extension or line type through “Branch Exchange Node Table” option, which
is on top of the window. This option opens the following window:

69
This window is used to enter the physical address of first and last ports of the S2GW
card(s) used for connection, or the ports of ISDN/digital extensions which are in
gateway mode. The physical address of media gateway cards (MGW-1 or MGW-2) is
made In this window as well. These cards are used for communication between non-IP
and IP ports, The following fields are used in this window:
- No: This field shows the index number of S2GW – MGW1 – MGW2 cards &
ISDN/digital extensions and is automatically set by between 0 and 255.
- Starting port no: The physical address of the first port of S2GW – MGW1 – MGW2
card or the first port of range of ISDN/digital extensions that will be in gateway
mode. It can be defined by double-clicking.
- Ending port no: The physical address of the last port of S2GW – MGW1 – MGW2
card or the first port of range of ISDN/digital extensions that will be in gateway
mode. It can be defined by double-clicking.

70
- Node Type: The type of the extension or line is selected. Available options are as
follows:
1. PRI: Sub exchange extension type through S2GW connection.
2. PRI DECT: DECT extension type through S2GW connection.
3. ISDN: ISDN or digital extension type which will be used in Gateway mode.
4. SIP: IP extension type.
5. IP TRUNK: IP line type.
After definitions of types, the main definitions can be made in the main window. For
the types except IP extensions, just Access Code and Node Type fields are required. On
the other hand, other fields are also important for IP extensions while they are being
registered to the system. These fields are explained below:
Access code: The access code of the SIP extension (the telephone number of the IP
phone).
Node number: The index for the MGW card. This is the row number on “Branch
Exchange Node Table” where MGW location is programmed as SIP.
IP Number Usage: If this is programmed as “changeable”, any IP telephone can
register to the system with this access code. If it is programmed as “fixed”, the system
requires the telephone to have the IP address as programmed in “IP #” field.
SIP password: IP extensions are required to have a password during registration. The
default value of this password is “abcdefgh12345678”.
Authentication Control: If programmed as “at registration”, password from an IP
extension is required only during its registration. If programmed as “at registration
and incoming calls”, password is required in each call attempt as well.
RTP Proxy Mode: RTP Proxy use for an IP extension is programmed within this field.
When it is adjusted as “automatic”, RTP Proxy will be used only if the IP extensions is
registered behind NAT (if it is an internal IP extension RTP Proxy is not used). Other
programmable options are “always” and “never”.
Other fields in this table are for maintenance purposes. They cannot be edited.
Port #: The SIP signaling port number of the extension. This is entered from telephone
and the system programming does not have any effect.
Registered: Shows if the IP extension with the given access code is registered to the
system or not.
IP#: IP address of the phone. Must be entered if the “IP Number Usage” parameter is
chosen as “Fixed”. The IP address of the IP phone is automatically obtained during
registration and written here if the same parameter is chosen as “Changeable”.

71
V.24. MEDIA GATEWAY 2 MENU
This menu is used to program parameters of media gateway card with extended
facilities s (MGW – 2). During start up, checks the system configuration and
activates this programming menu with its different options.

V.24.A. DSP MODULE SETTINGS

This menu lists each dsp module and the ıp address on the system as a different menu
item. Ip address definitions of dsp modules can be made within this menu. Right-
clicking on mgw-2 card in configuration window opens this menu as well.

72
V.24.B. MEDIA SETTINGS
This menu is used to set media parameters of MGW-2 card.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC): Depending on the connection quality, decides whether
gain control will be applied to the voice or not.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) Level: If AGC is active, this parameter is used to set the
level in dBm.
Detailed QoS Log: Saves quality of service parameters of MGW-2 card into memory. Its
default value is “No” and must not be set to “Yes” unless required for maintenance
purposes.
Dial Level: DTMF generation level for MGW-2 can be defined in between -1 dBm and -
40 dBm. The default value is -10 dBm.
DTMF Duration: It is used to define the detectable DTMF duration in milliseconds. The
values can be 32, 48 and 64 msec. 48 msec is the default value.
DTMF Edge: It can take values as “Falling” and “Leading” and it is used to define the
DTMF single in reference to start – end limits. Default value is “Falling”.
DTMF Length: It is used to define the detectable DTMF lenght in milliseconds. The
values can be multiples of 10 milliseconds. 100 msec is the default value.

73
DTMF Send Mode: It is used to program the standard which will be used in
transmission of DTMF tones to the remote end during IP communications. The values
can be “In band”, “RFC2833” or “Out of band (SIP info)”.
FFT Filter Energy: This is the energy threshold percentage for DTMF detection. The
values can be between 65% and 90%. 90% is the default value.
Frame Size: Defines the size and frequency of transmitted RTP packets, in
milliseconds. Packet size varies with respect to CODEC. The default value is 20 msec
for G.729, PCMU (G.711 u-law) and PCMA (G.711 a-law). The default value for G.723 is
30 msec.
GTD Filter Energy: This is the energy threshold percentage for tone detection. The
values can be between 65% and 90%. 90% is the default value.
iLBC Mode: Defines the RTP packet size and frequency. This is different from “Frame
Size” parameter since coding scheme is different for iLBC compared to other CODECs.
iLBC Payload Type: RTP payload number must be separately defined since it is
dynamic. It must be used as its default setting.
Line Tones: This value is used program the tolerable deviation (in dB) from tone to be
detected. The values can be in between 0 and – 9 dBm, where – 9 dBm is the default
value.
RTP Timeout: When activated, if the connected side stops sending RTP for any reason,
MGW sends an indication to disconnect the call.
Session Info Log: This field is used to record statistics of received packets in RTP
sessions for each call.
Silence Suppression: Activating this parameter decreases data transmission during
silence period in IP calls, in order to use the available bandwidth more efficiently. This
parameter is operational only if the remote end is also supporting this facility.
Silence Threshold: Determines the silence threshold for DTMF detection. Tone
levels/thresholds in between -10 dBm & -40dBm are detected as DTMF. Default value
is – 40 dBm.
sRTPFlag: Determines to enable/disable encryption for IP calls. When activated,
encrypted call requests from extensions are accepted.
System Info Log: Saves the processes of MGW2 card in the memory.
Telephony Payload Type: This is the Real Time Protocol (RTP) CODEC number when
DTMF information will be sent as RFC2833. With this parameter, the remote end
understands that telephony payload is supported with the related payload type. The
values entered here must be different from the other dynamic CODEC payload types.
The value can be in between 96 and 127, where 96 is the default value.
Tone Twist: This is the energy difference between high – log freuqecy in DTMF
detection.

74
V.24.C. CRYPTO TABLE
This menu is used to select the encryption standard which the system will use for
secure IP calls.

V.24.D. CODEC TABLE

This menu is used to select the CODECs that the system will use on MGW2 channels.
All CODECs used by all IP extensions and IP lines must be available in this MGW2
CODEC list. Otherwise, the call attempts of users with CODECs that do not exist in this
list will be denied. The CODECs supported by MGW2 are:
• G711 U law
• G711 A lwa
• G729
• iLBC
• G723

75
V.25. QUICK SERVICE TABLE MENU
This table is used to define single digit codes for some system features.

The number in “No” field is the digit that will be used to activate the feature shown in
Service Index” field.
“Call Back” service has an exceptional use. The service is activated by the single digit
programmed in Quick Service Table, but a previously activated Call Back request is
deactivated by the access code defined in 2nd row of Services Table.

V.26. TONE TABLE MENU

With this table, it is possible to select the frequency of the tones among the possible 4
alternatives of the system.

76
This table consists of 9 rows and each row has 3 columns:
• Dial tone
• Ringing tone
• Busy tone
The rows are as follows:

• On outgoing external calls: This row programs the tone on external lines when
LCR is active. The programmed tone will be heard by the dialing extension.
(When LCR is not used, our system is not producing any tones, the extension is
hearing the tone coming from directly from the line.)
• Extension: This row programs the tones heard by extensions in their internal
calls.
• PRI (Network)/TWT/R2/PLC/E&M: These rows program busy/ring back tones
given to the external callers coming through network mode PRI lines and
TWT/PLC/R2/E&M lines.
• Analog Trunk: This row programs the tones heard by the callers on DISA/ACD
lines.
• Other: This row programs the tones heard at ACD/DISA operating R2/PRI lines.
The principles for the ‘Tone Table’ are as follows:
• For PRI (network), PLC, E&M, TWT and R2 lines, "dial tone" column is not used
at all. (The called party number is the number of the connected party and the

77
 callers can hear either ring back or busy tone for these types of lines.)
Therefore that column is not programmable for those type of lines.
• If PLC lines are not programmed as PLC device from port parameters, their
tones are controlled from E&M row of the table. If they are used as PLC device,
PLC row is used to decide which tone will be used.
• For VoIP lines, busy/ring back tones are programmed from the calling system.
(The first row of the table is used.)
• For TWT lines in R2MF mode, busy tone is programmed from the calling
system.
• If GPBX mode is activated, GPBX specifications are dominant. E.g. even if dial
tone for extensions is programmed as 425 Hz, it will automatically change to
375+400+425 Hz if GPBX is activated.
• The dial tone for extensions that have active Last Number Auto Dial call, Follow
Me feature or new EVM messages cannot be modified. They are 350 + 440Hz,
just as before.
• When the called extension has activated Follow Me, the default ring back tone
is 350 + 440 Hz. This has not been changed. But if ring back tone is changed
from Tone Table, the new tone will be used.
• The Tone Table of IDEA cannot totally be controlled by a program code.
However, 800091 can still be used to control "ringing tone column" of the table,
except for the first row. 800091 0 sets all ringing tones to their default values,
425 Hz.

V.27. LICENSE TABLE MENU

This table is used to introduce and control the keys that are necessary for operations
of licnsed system services and facilities. The keys are to be received from Karel.

78
UGB information on top of the window is related to the system’s security unit which
activates licenses. The license keys should be received from Karel based on this
information, otherwise the license keys will not work.
The left column of the table shows the entire list of the services that can be activated
by license.
License Count column shows the number of users that can use the license.
Activation Key column shows the 32-digit key code that is received from Karel.
Remaining Time column shows the available remaining duration for temporary
licenses.
License Type field column shows the license detail as Net-CM or Web-CM.

V.28. DATE / TIME MENU

You can use this menu to adjust your system’s date and time.

79
You can synchronize date/time of your system with the PC on which is running,
see date/time of your system or define any date/time for your system.

V.29. PRIVATE EEPROM TABLES MENU

has been designed in a way that will enable programming of lower level
parameters as well. In addition to the facilities mentioned so far, it is possible to view
the contents and setting the memory elements that are on the entire extension and
line cards. However, since such settings would affect the overall performance of the
exchange, it is highly recommended to make these settings after a full control.
Besides, the parameters to be modified may be ones that will be affected by external
variables (such as some clocking parameters). Hence, the sufficiency of the
modifications must be checked afterwards as well and the convenient values must be
set by varying the parameter value.

IMPORTANT
In order to have the modified EEPROM parameters operating, it is necessary to refresh
EEPROM settings. This can be done either in Private EEPROM Tables Menu, or in
Configuration Menu.

For each card on the system, different EEPROM settings can be programmed. In other
words, the first step in EEPROM programming is selecting a card whereas the second
and last step is to make the programming.

80
V.18.A. EEPROM PROGRAMMING - CARD SELECTION
When this menu is opened, a window that shows the cards on the system is seen:

Under the drawing of cards, there are some buttons:

: If you click to a card and then use this button, you see the EEPROM table
of that card with hexadecimal values. Double-clicking the card operates the same.

: If you click to a card and then use this button, EEPROM parameters are
set to their default values.

: If you change an EEPROM parameter and then use “Program” button of

hexadecimal table, you can use this button in order to load the EEPROM changes to
the card.

and : If you change an EEPROM parameter and then

these buttons without using “Program” button of hexadecimal table, the EEPROM
changes of the selected card or all cards are not programmed.

81
This main window has some programming options in the right side as well:
a) “EEPROM Copying” option can be used to select EEPROM parameters of a card
and then copy on other cards.

Selected Card: This part shows the card type that you clicked on the left side.
Destination Cards: By clicking the check box, you can select the cards on which
you will copy the EEPROM parameters.

: After the destination cards’ selection, this button is used to realize the
copying of parameters.
b) “Batch EEPROM Task” option can be used to manipulate EEPROM programming
of multiple cards with a single option.

By clicking the check box, you can select the cards on which you will make the
EEPROM programming.

82
 : This button is used EEPROM parameters of the selected cards to their
default values.

: This button is used to load the programmed EEPROM changes to the

selected cards.

V.18.B. EEPROM PROGRAMMING - PARAMETERS

Once the card is selected and the EEPROM parameters are viewed as a hexadecimal

table either by double-clicking or by button, 3 tabs are seen:

- General
- Cadence
- Details
After the programming is finished, card selection window is seen again. In order to

activate the programmed changes, button must be used, or “Refresh

EEPROM” must be activated by right-clicking on the card in Configuration Menu.

GENERAL
This is a hexadecimal-format table, which is shown in the following figure:

83
Since this table includes only some hexadecimal values, making modifications might
cause inconsistencies in the system. In order to avoid these inconsistencies, two extra
tabs (Cadence and Details) are also offered so that the parameters can be interpreted
and modified more easily in a visual way.

IMPORTANT
While modifying EEPROM parameters, before pressing “Program” button, it is
recommended to check the affected columns of this hexadecimal table:
These modified but un-programmed parameters are presented in red. If there is any
column with FF value in the same row before these red values, then the EEPROM
changes will not be applied.
In such a case the FF values in the same row must also be modified in a way that will
not cause an inconsistency on system operation.

CADENCE:
This is the option, where tone and ring cadences are programmed. Cadence option
does not differ very much from card to card. The biggest difference is between
extension / line cards:
EXTENSIONS
The cadences of the tones that the analog and rural extensions receive through their
handsets and the duty cycles of the rings on their telephones can be programmed, as
shown in the following figure:

84
The eight parameters seen in the first part of this window show the valid time intervals
of the following tones heard in various cases after lifting the handset:
Ring-back: The tone heard when the called extension is ringing.
Busy: The tone heard when the called extension is busy.
Error: The tone heard when an erroneous operation is made.
On hold: The tone heard by the extension when he is put on hold by another extension.
Do not Disturb – No Ring (Ext): The tone heard when an extension who has activated
Do Not Disturb facility is called “No Ring Do Not Disturb Mode” is active on the system.
Extension off-hook (Ext) / Busy Alerting (BRA): For analog extensions, the tone heard
when an extension who has left his telephone off-hook is called. For ISDN BRI or
digital extensions, the tone heard when another ISDN BRI or digital extension with an
ongoing conversation is called.
Unknown extension - Fault: The tone heard when a code that does not exist in the
numbering plan of the system is dialed.
Progress: The tone heard by calling parties through R2 lines until the ring back tone is
heard.
The eight parameters in the second part show the valid time intervals of the ring
cadence of phones for various types of incoming calls.
Internal call: The ring cadence of internal calls.
External call: The ring cadence of external calls.

85
Reminder: The ring cadence of reminder calls.
Returned call: The ring cadence when a parked call returns back.
Authorized Extension: The ring cadence when an extension with higher intrusion
authority is calling.
External (LD, IN): The ring cadence when call is received from a long distance or
international number. This cadence is used only when the Caller ID information of the
call is available.
Redirected Call (Int): The ring cadence when an internal call for another extension,
which has forwarded his calls, is received.
Redirected Call (Ext): The ring cadence when an external call for another extension,
which has forwarded his calls, is received
The boxes in dark colors are used for determining the time periods in which tones or
rings will be heard (Make/ON), and the boxes in light colors are used for determining
the time periods in which tones or rings will not be heard (Break/OFF). Since the
values that can be entered in each box varies in the range 0 and 2.54 seconds, in cases
when durations longer than 2.54 seconds are required, two consecutive boxes can be
selected as ON or OFF. Once the necessary changes are completed, the “OK” button is
clicked and the new timing parameters become effective from then on for the next
extension operations.
This window is especially important for EX200 (0/16C) cards. In order to have proper
functionality of CLIP facility of these cards, the internal and external cadences must be
set as 1.5 seconds ON and 3.5 seconds OFF.

86
 LINES
The cadences of the tones that the external parties hear when they call the system
through Auto Attendant or DISA external lines can be programmed, as shown in the
following figure:

Ring-back: The tone heard when the called extension is ringing.

Busy: The tone heard when the called extension is busy.
Error: The tone heard when an erroneous operation is made.
On hold: The tone heard when the called party puts the conversation on hold.

87

EXTENSIONS

Minimum disconnect duration for on-hook (as flash enabled): This parameter sets the
duration of the period in which an extension must keep the handset on hook in order to
terminate a call (while the extension has hook-flash authorization). The value of the
parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec. That value also determines
the upper limit of the hook flash period, i.e., on hook durations that are shorter than
the determined period are considered as hook flash, and the ones longer than that
period are considered as hanging up.
Minimum flash duration: This parameter sets the minimum duration of period in which
an extension should keep the flash switch off in order to put a call on hold. The value
of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec.
Maximum DP Break duration: If an extension is employing the flash switch of her/his
phone to make hook flash, then the duration of that hook flash must not be short as to
be confused with the DP break signal. Through this parameter, the maximum signal
length that the exchange will detect as the DP break signal is determined. The value of
the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec.

88
Minimum DP Break duration: The minimum duration of the DP break signal is
determined through this parameter to prevent detection of some very short
disconnections, which might occur on the line while an extension is dialing a number,
as a DP digit. The value of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec.
Maximum DP Make duration: This parameter determines the duration of the maximum
make signal that will be created on the line while an extension is dialing DP numbers.
The value of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec.
Minimum DP Make duration: This parameter determines the duration of the minimum
make signal that will be created on the line while an extension is dialing DP numbers.
The value of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec.
If DP phones of extensions are generating out-of-standard signals, then the
parameters related to DP dialing can also be set to detect those signals.
Minimum Inter-digit time-out for DP dialing: This parameter sets the length of the
delay period between two digits dialed consecutively in order to make sure those digits
are detected correctly by the exchange. The value of the parameter can be entered as
in the range 5-1250 msec.
Minimum disconnect duration for on-hook (as Flash disabled): This parameter sets the
duration of the period in which an extension must keep the handset on hook in order to
terminate a call (while the extension does not have hook-flash authorization). The
value of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec. That value also
determines the upper limit of the hook flash period, i.e., on hook durations that are
shorter than the determined period are considered as hook flash, and the ones longer
than that period are considered as hanging up.
Tone connection time after going off-hook: This parameter sets the length of the
minimum period in which an extension has to keep the handset off hook for the
handset to be detected by the system as lifted. The value of the parameter can be
entered as in the range 5-1250 msec. This parameter can be employed especially to
avoid such cases when the hook switch is turned on and off for very short time
intervals unintentionally due to the very own characteristics of a phone while the
extension is lifting the handset, the system may interpret such intervals as dialed DP
digits and disconnect the dial tone.
Minimum off hook duration during ringing to connect the call: In case of a coming call
request, this parameter sets the length of the period in which an extension has to keep
the handset off hook, in order to be detected by the system as answering the call. The
value of the parameter can be entered as in the range 5-1250 msec. This parameter
can be employed especially to avoid the misinterpretation by the system of the cases,
when the hook switch is turned on and off for very short time intervals unintentionally
while the extension is lifting the handset, due to the very own characteristics of a
phone, as the call is being answered and to avoid dropping of the line. Unlike other
parameters, this parameter can be programmed different for each extension.

89
Charging method: This parameter is valid only for Rural Extension cards and it can be
used to determine the cards’ charging method. The value entered here (metering
pulses of 12 KHz, metering pulses of 16 KHz, soft polarity reversal or hard polarity
reversal) can be used as follows:
- In internal calls, when the called extension answers, activates soft/hard polarity
reversal.
- In internal calls, when the called extensions ends the calls, activates soft/hard
polarity reversal. (The system must be producing error tone at the end of
conversation so that this application can work. For this program, refer DS Series
Programming Guide-Line Connection After A Call program.)
- In external calls through analog external lines, when metering pulse of 12 KHz or
16 KHz is received, produces metering pulse of 12 KHz or 16 KHz; or activates
soft/hard polarity reversal.
- In external calls through PRI/BRI external lines, when AOC information is
received, produces metering pulse of 12 KHz or 16 KHz; or activates soft/hard
polarity reversal.
CallerID transmission type: This parameter is valid only for Rural Extension cards and
can be programmed as DTMF or FSK to determine the format of produced calling
party number information.
The entire parameters in that window will be valid for all analog extensions.

frequency range in order to detect the pulse price signal transmitted from the network
to which the exchange is connected. The value of the parameter can be entered as in
the range 100-25000 Hz.
Minimum metering pulse on duration: This parameter sets the minimum duration of
the pulse price signals to be detected correctly, which are transmitted from the
network to which the exchange is connected. The value of the parameter can be
entered as in the range 10-2500 msec.
Minimum metering pulse off duration: This parameter sets the minimum wait time
between two consecutive pulse price signals, which are transmitted from the network
to which the exchange is connected, for the signals to be detected correctly. The value
of the parameter can be entered as in the range 10-2500 msec.
Current detection on line: This parameter controls whether current check will be done
on an analog line. If current check is performed on a line and if the exchange does not

91
detect current on that line, then the line is taken out of service, so that extensions are
prevented to access such malfunctioning lines.
Polarity reversal detection: This parameter controls whether polarity reversal facility
activated by CO is detected by the system or not. This feature can be controlled on
lines by a programming code; however, this value of this field must be set as “Yes” in
order to control the analog line card totally.
The parameters above are valif for all analog lines. The parameters listed below are
valid only for expandable lines:
Monitor: If activated, extra communication parameters of this card can be transferred
to DS200.LOG file. These extra parameters will be useful especially while checking
calling line party number detection facility.
Delay of detection polarity: This parameter is used to determine the duration after
which the system can start detecting the reversals of polarity, after accessing the
external line. Although the maximum delay can be defined as 4200 milliseconds, it is
recommended to keep this vale as 0 for DP lines and in the range 800 – 1200
milliseconds for DTMF lines.
Duration of holding line after the end of call: In order to eliminate detection of fake
ring signals at the end of calls, the line can be hold for a certain period. This
parameter is used to program this period.

In such cases, it is necessary to try different values of these parameters.
(PRI) National/international code for called party number: These values can be
programmed as 0/00 or 8/810. If they are programmed as “Automatic” the value of

V.30. MULTIPLE PORT OPERATIONS MENU

DS series systems offer big capacities and in some cases it may be cumbersome to
make the necessary programming for each extension/line one by one. To overcome
this burden, offers an option, which enables programming of parameters for
multiple ports in a single window. Multiple Port Operations menu is used for this
purpose and offers assembled programming for extensions and lines. The windows for
extensions and lines are the same. Therefore assembled programming only for
extensions is explained in the following sections.
This menu uses the following window:

105
In this window, the members of the assembled programming group can be selected
as:
- Manual selection by clicking on their check boxes, or totally at once by clicking on
the check box included in the toolbar. In this case, the selected members must be

be carried on the window at the left side by clicking the button.

- Selecting a previously formed port list.

After making the parameters’ selection, when “Continue” button is clicked, the
following window appears:

106
In this window, the desired parameters can be modified. Once right-clicked on a value
as shown in the next figure, two extra programming options appear:

- Fill following rows with this value: This option can be used to enter the same value
to all ports listed after the active one.
- Fill all the column with this value: This option can be used to enter the same value
for all selected ports.
- Search this value in the row: This option can be used to go the next port that has
the same parameter value.

107
V.31. PARAMETER COPYING MENU
Parameter Copying menu is used for copying parameters of a single extension or line
to multiple extensions / lines. The windows for extensions and lines are the same.

MENU
This menu uses the following window, which includes three buttons in order activate
several options.

109
The first option Write into memory allows saving the programmed parameters, which
have already been saved in the volatile memory, into the non-volatile memory in order
to preserve them in case of a power failure. When this button is clicked, the
parameters are saved after having the confirmation.
The second option Read from memory loaded parameter values that are in the non-
volatile memory of the exchange simultaneously both to the volatile memory and to
the automatically. Hence, it is possible to view and modify the parameters
directly, which are in the non-volatile memory. When this button is clicked, the
parameters are loaded after having the confirmation.
The third option Delete memory sets all of the parameter values in the non-volatile
memory to their default values. In that case, either the exchange should be re-
programmed from the beginning, or a previously saved parameter file should be
loaded. That option is especially useful if there have been some undesired changes in
the parameter values, which are active on the exchange, or if the exchange is not
functioning properly.

110
V.33. RCM MENU

is also stored in TRUNK.HTM file of REPORT folder that automatically forms under the
folder where program is installed. A sample report is given below:

120
The classifications in this report are given below:
For outgoing calls:
Channel: Total number of the lines in the PBX group to the given route.
Total: Total number of the calls made towards the route.
Overflow: The number of the call attempts, which are denied by the system internally
due to lack of resources.
Alert: The number of the calls ringed on the external party.
Busy: The number of busy calls.
Connect: The number of calls, which are answered by the external party.
Cancel: The total number of calls cancelled by the extensions or by the network before
the call reaches the destination.
Duration: The total duration (in minutes) of calls to the given route.
Erlang: Total duration of calls to the given route divided by total duration of report
range.
For incoming calls:
Channel: Total number of the lines in the PBX group from the given route.
Total: Total number of the calls received from the route.
Alert: The number of the calls ringed on the extensions.
Busy: The number of busy calls.
Connect: The number of calls, which are answered by the extensions.
Duration: The total duration (in minutes) of calls from the given route
Erlang: Total duration of calls from the given route divided by total duration of report
range.
The reports of line statistics can also be opened as a text file under TRUNKLOG folder
that automatically forms under the folder where program is installed.
TRUNKLOG folder includes the following files:
- ddmmyyyy.log: This file shows the report for the latest statistics. Its name is the
date of the Monday of the current week. (e.g.23052005.txt)
- olddet.log: The statistics of earlier weeks.
- detail.log: This file also shows the latest statistics with respect to line access
codes.

The lower part of first option is to handle automatic statistics. Provided that
program is running and “Automatic line statistics” box is checked, statistical
information of external calls can also be obtained automatically. This automatic
operation takes place periodically in the defined intervals. The first time, at which
statistics will be obtained, can also be programmed. This option is especially useful to
obtain statistics reports for short intervals. The system has a unique counter related to
calls of each line and it cannot divide this information into different periods of time.
This time discrimination for statistics reports can be provided only by using the
“Automatic line statistics” option. By this way, the cumulative values for each line is
received by , saved on the PC and the system side is reset. So, statistical
information on time bass is formed on the PC.

archive log files are slid.

132
 VI. OFF-LINE CONFIGURATION
One of the beneficial facilities of is its possibility to build up a configuration in
off-line mode. By use of this facility, the configuration can be stored in a file for later
use, e.g. parameter upload on another system with identical configuration.
This facility, which might especially be helpful for technical service usage, can be
activated only when runs through a shortcut with “ –cconfig” command. A
shortcut with this command is also automatically copied under the same folder of the
program during installation.

When shortcut of with “ –cconfig” command is run, the option “Create File &
Connect” appears on the initializing window of the program.

When this button is pressed, off-line configuration window appears:

133
This window offers you the following facilities:
- You can select any card from the list on the right side of the window, or from “Add
Card” option of “Options” button; and then drag/drop that card to any slot on the
left side.
- Using “Fill With This Card” item of “Options” button, you can fill the other
locations you desire with the selected card (e.g. all slots in that tower, all slots in
that rack, succeeding racks).
- Using “Import File Configuration” item of “Options” button, instead of placing the
cards one-by-one, you can use a complete configuration of another file.
- Using “EEPROM Size” item of “Options” button, you can change the EEPROM table
size of the selected card. This option is designed for rural applications.
- Using “Delete” item of “Options” button, you can delete the selected card or the
cards of that rack, that tower or entire configuration.
- You can undo the modifications in the configuration.
- You can determine the main system software. ,
- You can decide whether the parameters of virtual extensions will be included in
the file or not.
- Using the help option on the left bottom side, you can reach the necessary
explanations.
After deciding the cards’ locations, you can proceed with “Next” button and give a
name to the file you have formed. Now, you can start working on parameter
programming.
On a configuration file that is formed with this method, Restricted/permitted Numbers,
Phone Lock Table, Memories, First Digits Table, GPBX Table, Alarm Table, External
Numbers, Quick Call Table menus cannot be used.

134
 VII. PROGRAMMING MULTIPLE SYSTEMS
program has an additional module to program multiple systems
simultaneously. Only “Supervisor” user level of can activate this option.
The following points must be considered for this option:
1) The target systems must have the same CPU software version.
2) The target systems are reached over server applications: LAN Adaptor card
or Net-Console server; i.e. the programmed systems must have IP
connection.
3) The configuration of the systems is important:
a. If the configuration and numbering plan of the systems are identical, all
parameters of all systems can be programmed in a single attempt
b. If there are differences in configurations / numbering plans, only
matching parameters can be programmed (e.g. system parameters can
always be programmed.)
Programming begins with connection to a single system. The main idea here is to
record the programming session on a single system and then copy this programming
session to the other systems.

VII.1. FORMING A PROGRAMMING TEMPLATE

ON THE FIRST SYSTEM
Connect to a single system by program. Press the red circle on the bottom of
the main window.

135
After pressing the red circle, program will appear in a simplified version that
shows the programmable parameters appropriate for multiple system programming.
In this simplified window, the required programming can be made within the active
connection. The programming will be active on the connected system.
When programming is finalized, press the green circle on the bottom of the main
window and save the last programming session in a *.rcf file. The program will
return to its original view.

136
VII.2. PROGRAMMING MULTIPLE SYSTEMS
THROUGH TEMPLATE
With “Supervisor” role, press the blue triangle on the bottom of main window;
or run the shortcut “Multi-PABX Programmer” and enter the program with
“Supervisor” role. The following window will appear:

137
Aş the first step, “Add PABX” button must be used to form the list of systems in the
following window:

“Delete PBX” button can be used to remove systems from the list.
Since the systems are required to have same version software, versions of the
systems selected on the left side can be checked from “Query master software”
button. The program will connect to the systems and check their versions. The
successful connections will be notified with software version; the unsuccessful
connections will be notified with a warning.

138
Select the previously formed *rcf file through “Select File” button and press “Start
Selected” button for programming. If programming cannot be made due to a conflict,
related warning message will be displayed.

139
During programming, “Stop Selected” button can be used to abort the process. As
much systems as desired can be programmed with this option. But file will be loaded
to groups of 2 systems sequentially.
This option can also be used to update software and EVM200 Auto Attendant messages
on all systems through the “Update master software of selected PBXs” and “Update
EVM sounds of selected PBXs” buttons on main window.

140
 VIII. AUTOMATIC BACKUP MANAGER
program has another module to handle backups on multiple systems
simultaneously. With this option backups can be retrieved from / loaded to multiple
systems. This can be programmed as a scheduled task as well.
The module is accessed through the shortcut “Automatic Backup Manager”.

The first step is to form a list of systems. The list formed for Multiple PBX
Programmer module is valid for Automatic Backup Manager as well. The backup files
will be formed for the systems selected from the list on left.
“Create Scheduled Backup Task” button can be used to open Windows Scheduler and
then to enable backup process on the systems at desired periods. The following
windows will appear in this case:

141
142
After the schedule settings are made, Windows operating system will run Automatic
Backup Manager at predefined times automatically and perform backup process. The
PC must be ON at those times, otherwise, the process will not take place.

Backup process can be made in two forms:

1) Retrieving backup files form systems onto PC.

2) Uploading backup files from PC to systems.

The operation mode is set from the rightmost arrow on the main window. If arrow is
pointing upwards, the mode is “Restore” to load the last backup file from PC to
system. If the arrow is point downwards, the mode is “Backup” to retrieve parameter
file to PC.

143
“Settings” on button on main window can be used to define some parameters for
backup files.

The backup file can be browsed in this window. Some limits can be also defined for the
backup files that will be retrieved from systems and copied on PC.

1) Unlimited: Each backup file will be saved on the PC as a new file.

2) Limit number of files to: The folder will be able to contain as much number of
files as specified. When this number is exceeded, with each new backup file
the oldest file will be deleted from the folder. This setting is recommended if
backups will be formed frequently.

3) Keep files for: The folder will contain backup files as long as defined period of
time. After that time, with each new backup file the oldest file will be deleted
from the folder. E.g. for 1 month period, the folder will always contain backup
files for the last month.

144
 IX. DCC RELATED OPTIONS FOR
DS200L
In DS200L configurations, can be used to program DCC module as well.

To make those settings, “DCC Connection” mode of must be used and IP

address of DCC UTIL card must be entered to run the program.

The menus in “DCC” are explained below.

IX.1. DCC CONFIGURATION

The E1 ports that have been labeled as green in this menu are the ports over which the
connections to the Utility 4E1 cards at the TW200 towers are established. In this menu,
if the mouse cursor rests on the DCC 8E1 Interface card for a while, hardware and
software versions of this card are viewed.

145
IX.2. E1 LINE INFOS
This menu gives some information about E1 lines which are explained below.

E1 No: indicates where the regarding E1 port is connected to.

Relay: indicates whether there is any problem with the relay of that E1 port or not.

146
SYNC: indicates whether there is synchronization problem with the pertaining E1 port
or not. Here, green color signifies that synchronization has been maintained.

External clock: indicates the ports over which the external clock signal of the system
is received. When you mark the EXCLK cells of the ports, over which you wish the
external clock to be received, they are labeled as blue. The port over which the
external clock signal is currently being received appears in dark blue. In case any
problem with a port occurs, over which the external clock is received, the system
automatically starts to receive the external clock signal over another port that has
been labeled as blue, so that continuous reception of the system clock is maintained.

SLIP count: values are supposed to be 0 for normal operation of the system. Any value
that is different from 0 indicates that there is problem with cabling or connection. This
value can also be set to 0 again by right-clicking the mouse and selecting “Reset
Counter” option.

Local Loopback: in case there is 2Mbit connection problem, this row indicates that the
problem originates from the pertaining port. This operation has been explained in the
BERT menu.

IX.3. CHANNEL BUSY / IDLE INFORMATIONS

This menu displays the busyness statuses of 32 channels on the ports of DCC 8E1
Interface cards. The first channels of the ports have been marked as SYNC.

147
IX.4. BERT (BIT ERROR RATE TEST)
BERT is performed in order to see if there is a problem with the line or cabling. The
test can be based on lines or channels.

In order to carry out the test, first of all, the desired line is supposed to be put into blue
labeled LOCL mode by right-clicking the mouse and selecting “Change State” option
on the “Local Loopback” row.

148
Then, access the BERT menu and perform the test on the lines that have been selected
for Loopback (LOCL). The duration of the test can be set as shown in the figure below.

149
Number of errors occurred on the tested lines and error percentages are viewed as
shown in the figure below.

IX.5. CONSOLE
This menu is for Karel staff use only.

IX.6. PLL (PHASE-LOCKED LOOP) STATE

This window is for display purposes only; values of parameters cannot be changed.

150
