Welcome to ISDN
This chapter provides you with some background information about ISDN and also includes information about: • • • • • • • Analog vs. ISDN Type of ISDN service ISDN layers ISDN Bearer capability Services and features for ISDN PRI and BRI ISDN hardware ISDN standards compatibility

Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) technology provides a fast, accurate and reliable means of sending and receiving voice, data, images, text, and other information through the telecom network. ISDN uses existing analog telephone wires and divides it into separate digital channels which dramatically increases the bandwidth. ISDN uses a single transport to carry multiple information types. What once required separate networks for voice, data, images, or video conferencing is now combined onto one common high-speed transport. Note: Nortel endeavours to test all variations of ISDN BRI and PRI on Norstar, however, due to the number of variations, this is not always possible.

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

18 / Welcome to ISDN

Analog versus ISDN
ISDN offers significantly higher bandwidth and speed than analog transmission because of its end-to-end digital connectivity on all transmission circuits. Being digital allows ISDN lines to provide better quality signaling than analog POTS lines and ISDN out-of band data channel signaling offers faster call set up and tear down. While an analog line carries only a single transmission at a time, an ISDN line can carry one or more voice, data, fax and video transmissions simultaneously. An analog modem operating at 14.4 K takes about 4.5 minutes to transfer a 1MB data file and a 28.8K modem takes about half that time. Using one channel of an ISDN line, the transfer time is reduced to only 1 minute and if 2 ISDN channels are used, transfer time is just 30 seconds. When transmitting data, the connect time for an average ISDN call is about 3 seconds per call, compared to about 21 seconds for the average analog modem call.

Type of ISDN service
Two types of ISDN services (lines) are available: Basic Rate Interface (BRI) and Primary Rate Interface (PRI). Each line is made up of separate channels known as B and D channels which transmit information simultaneously. • • BRI is known as “2B+D” because it consists of 2 B-channels and 1 D-channel. PRI is known as “23B+D” because it consists of 23 B-channels and 1 D-channel.

B channels B channels are the bearer channel and are used to carry voice or data information and have speeds of 64 kbps. Since each
Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide P0881590 Issue 02

Welcome to ISDN / 19

ISDN line (BRI or PRI) has more than one B-channel, a user can perform more than one transmission at the same time using a single ISDN line. D channels The standard signaling protocol is transmitted over a dedicated data channel called the D-channel. The D-channel carries call setup and feature activation information to the destination and have speeds of 16 kbps (BRI) and 64 kbps (PRI). Data information consists of control and signal information and packet-switched data such as credit card verification.

ISDN layers
ISDN layers refer to the standards established to guide the manufacturers of ISDN equipment. The layers include both physical connections, such as wiring and logical connections, which are programmed in computer software. When equipment is designed to the ISDN standard for one of the layers, it works with equipment for the layers above and below it. There are three layers at work in ISDN for Norstar. To support ISDN service, all three layers must be working properly. • Layer 1: A physical connection that supports fundamental signaling passed between the ISDN network (your service provider) and the Norstar ICS. When the LED for a loop on a DTI card configured as BRI or PRI is used for a network connection is lit, your layer 1 is functioning. Layer 2: A logical connection between the ISDN network (your service provider) and the Norstar ICS. Norstar has two of these connections for each BRI line, one for each of the logical lines. Without Layer 2, call processing is not possible and there is no dial tone.
Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide



P0881590 Issue 02

20 / Welcome to ISDN



Layer 3: Also a logical connection between the ISDN network (your service provider) and the Norstar ICS. For BRI lines, layer 3 is where call processing and service profile identifier (SPID) information is exchanged. This controls which central office services are available to the connection. For example, a network connection can be programmed to carry data calls.

The system of layers is important when you are installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting an ISDN system. See Problems with BRI service on page 453 for more information about working with the layers.

ISDN Bearer capability
Bearer capability describes the transmission standard used by the BRI or PRI line so that it can work within a larger ISDN hardware and software network. The bearer capability for BRI and PRI is voice/speech, 3.1 kHz audio, and data (unrestricted 64 kbps, restricted 64 kbps, 56 kbps).

Protocols supported (PRI only) Various public and private protocols are now supported with the Norstar ICS. For more information on these protocols see Call by Call service selection for PRI on page 329. DTI card configured as a PRI card Two cards can now be used as PRI type cards on the Norstar ICS. A dedicated PRI card can be used or once an existing DTI card has been correctly configured, it can also be used as a PRI card. For information on configuring a DTI card as a PRI type card, see Provisioning the DTI card for PRI on page 341.

ISDN hardware
To support connections to an ISDN network and ISDN terminal equipment, your Modular ICS must be equipped with one or more BRI Cards (BRI-U or BRI-ST) a DTI card configured for PRI and a Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge or a Services Cartridge.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Welcome to ISDN / 25

DTI Card configured as PRI A DTI card configured as PRI provides one T loop. See T reference points on page 28 for more information. In most PRI network configurations, you need one DTI card configured as PRI in your ICS to act as the primary clock reference. The only time when you may not have a PRI designated as the primary clock reference is in a network where your Norstar system is connected back-to-back with another switch using a PRI link. If the other switch is looptimed to your Norstar system, your DTI card configured as PRI can be designated as a timing master. If your Norstar has two DTI cards configured as PRI, you cannot assign both cards as the primary reference or both cards as the secondary reference. You can only have one primary reference and one secondary reference per system. See Clock Src on page 358 for more information. BRI Card The loops on BRI-U and BRI-ST Cards can be programmed to support either network or terminal connections. This allows you to customize your arrangement of lines, voice terminals, data terminals and other ISDN equipment. This section describes some basic hardware configurations for network and terminal connections for each loop type. Detailed wiring information for BRI and PRI network and terminal connections is included in the Installation on page 127.

BRI-U2 and BRI-U4 A BRI-U2 Card supports two loops and the BRI-U4 supports four loops. Each loop can be individually programmed to provide: • • a U-LT reference point connection for terminal equipment (TE) with built-in NT1 functionality (U interface), or a U-NT reference point connection for direct connection to an ISDN network

BRI-ST Card A BRI-ST Card provides four loops. Each loop can be individually programmed as: • • an S reference point connection (S loop) to ISDN terminal equipment (TE), or a T or S reference point connection (T loop or S loop) to an ISDN network using an external NT1

U-LT reference point The U-LT reference point connection provides a point-topoint digital connection between Norstar and TE equipped with a U interface. A U-LT loop supports up to eight ISDN DNs, which identify TE to the ICS.

U-NT and U-LT loops can be used in combination to provide D-packet service for a point-of-sale terminal adapter (POSTA) or other D-packet device. D-packet service is a 16 kbps data transmission service that uses the D-channel of an ISDN line. To deliver D-packet service, a network connection (U-NT) is programmed to work with a terminal connection (U-LT). The loops must be on the same physical card. For example, if the network connection is a loop found on the BRI Card in Slot 1, the terminal connection must be a loop found on the same card. S reference point The S reference point connection provides either a point-topoint or point-to-multipoint digital connection between Norstar and ISDN terminal equipment (TE) that uses an S interface.

Clock Source for ISDN Cards
Systems with ISDN interfaces need to synchronize clocking with the ISDN network and any connected ISDN terminal equipment. Clocking synchronization is supported by either a Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge or a Services Cartridge. The Modular ICS derives timing from the network using U-NT and T reference points (loops). Terminal equipment on U-LT and S reference points (loops) derive timing from the ICS. Systems synchronize clocking to the first available, functional, network connection. If there are excessive errors on the reference network connection, or the loop fails, the next available, functional, network connection is used for clock synchronization. The clock synchronization process generates alarm codes and event messages. See the Alarm codes on page 389 and Event messages on page 397 for more information. When you configure the network connections to the Modular ICS, you should take into account the system preferences for selecting loops for synchronization: • • lower numbered loops have preference over higher numbered loops the loop preference order is: 201, 202, 203, 204, 225, 226, 227, 228

the system skips U-LT, S, and analog loops when selecting a network connection for synchronization

Systems with only U-LT and S loops act as timing masters for the attached terminal equipment (TE), and are not synchronized to the network. ISDN TE without access to a network connection (BRI lines) has limited or no functionality. If your system has both a BRI and a DTI card configured as PRI installed, it is recommended that you use PRI as the primary clock source, see DTI card configured as a PRI card on page 24.

Other ISDN BRI equipment
NT1 The NT1 (network termination type 1) connects an S interface (four-wire) to a U interface (two-wire). In most cases, it connects loops from a BRI-ST card to the network connection, which uses the U interface. It can also connect S interface terminal equipment (TE) to the U loop from a BRI-U2 or BRIU4 Card. An NT1 is not required to connect from the network to BRI-U Cards or to connect U interface TE to an ICS equipped with BRI-U Cards. The NT1 converts and reformats data so it can be transmitted to and from the S or T connection. In addition, it manages the maintenance messages travelling between the network and the NT1, and between the NT1 and the ICS. The NT1 from Northern Telecom is packaged two ways: • a stand alone package which contains one NT1 card (NTBX80XX) and a power supply (NTBX81XX)

provider), terminal SPID, and DN by following the instructions that come with the device. Programming ISDN PRI lines When the configuration programming under Hardware is complete, your PRI lines are ready to be programmed. For information on programming your PRI lines, see Call by Call service selection for PRI on page 329. Programming ISDN BRI lines When the configuration programming under Hardware is complete, your BRI lines are ready to be programmed in the same way as analog lines. You can, for example, place them in pools and assign them to Norstar sets and ISDN terminal equipment. However, there are some differences in the way BRI lines work that will influence how you configure them to handle incoming and outgoing calls. For BRI lines, in most cases, your service provider supplies two SPIDs – one for each B channel. Each SPID and one or more Network DNs are associated with a single line. Calls to a Network DN come in on a specific line, and pressing a line button selects the same line every time. If your service provider supplies you with a single SPID for both B channels, incoming and outgoing calls are handled according to the loop. The two lines provided by the BRI loop are “pooled” for both incoming and outgoing calls. For example, if Loop 201is programmed with a single SPID, which supports lines 001 and 002, incoming calls made to a Network DN associated with the SPID appear on either line 001 or line 002. If you press the line button for line 001, either line 001 or line 002 is selected. For loops which use a single SPID, assign both lines on a loop to a set to guarantee that all calls appear at the set.

Programming Direct Inward System Access (DISA) on PRI trunks When a trunk cartridge is set to PRI, all lines on that trunk are set to Auto Answer without Direct Inward System Access (DISA). DISA can however be accessed by one of two methods. 1) Define the DISA DN to match the trailing digits of the Called Party Number (CDN). With Public, Private, and Tie service types, the CDN is simply truncated to the Target Line Receive Digit Length and is parsed to match the Target Line Receive Digits. DISA can be accessed by having the DISA DN match the trailing digits of the CDN. For example, with a Receive Digit Length = 4, and DISA DN = 1234, a call made to Public DN 763-1234 will be handled as follows: • • • • the ISDN setup message will contain a CDN of 763-1234 the CDN will be truncated to the 4 digits, 1234 1234 matches the DISA DN the call will be answered with DISA

2) Use incoming Call by Call (CbC) Service routing to map the call type to the DISA DN. Refer to Programming Call by Call service selection on page 333 for more information. With FX, INWATS, 900, and SDS service types, either a Service Id (SID) or a CDN is mapped to Target Line Receive Digits. This is programmed under Call-by-Call Routing. DISA may be accessed by having the SID or CDN map to the DISA DN. This example has a Receive Digit Length = 4,

DISA DN = 1234, and CbC Routing with (Service Type = FX, Map from SID = 2, Map to digits = 1234). A call presented to the Norstar system with service type FX and SID 2 will be handled as follows: • • The ISDN setup message will specify FX with SID = 2 The FX SID = 2 will be mapped to DISA DN digits 1234 The call will be answered with DISA

Programming ISDN equipment
DTI cards configured as PRI support various applications that are enabled by PRI. For a list of the type of applications that are support, see ISDN applications on page 97. Terminal equipment for BRI cards Unlike Norstar sets, ISDN devices and terminals connected to the ICS must be configured under the Hardware heading in system programming. You choose directory numbers for ISDN equipment from a pre-determined range of DNs (667696). Any of the ISDN DNs can be assigned to any U-LT or S loop, but each can only be assigned to one loop and a single device. Devices on an S or LT loop (BRI cards only) Terminal equipment using a U-LT loop or S loop must be assigned an ISDN directory number (ISDN DN). This allows the TE to be assigned lines and to communicate with other devices connected to the ICS. Each DN can be assigned to only one TE and one loop. You assign ISDN DNs to S loops and LT loops under Assign DNs in Hardware programming. Each S or LT loop can be programmed with eight ISDN DNs, but you cannot exceed a total of thirty ISDN DNs for the Modular ICS.
Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide P0881590 Issue 02

Working with ISDN / 43

Once you have assigned ISDN DNs to a loop, designate one of the DNs as a Loop DN. The Loop DN acts as a main ISDN DN and completes the configuration of the loop. The ISDN terminal equipment (TE) on the loop is also programmed with its ISDN DN. See the instructions that come with the ISDN device for information on how to program it to recognize its assigned DN. Most devices will require both a terminal service profile identifier (terminal SPID) and a DN, and some will require two terminal SPIDs and two ISDN DNs. The SPID used with the device should not be confused with a SPID used for network connections using an T or NT loop. To create a terminal SPID for a device, add at least two zeros to the end of the of the ISDN DN. Add more zeros to the beginning or end of the ISDN DN until you have the length of SPID required by the TE. For example, if an ISDN telephone requires a six-digit SPID and has a DN of 667, its SPID is 066700. If the same TE requires a minimum of ten digits, the SPID is 0000066700. Most ISDN terminals require a five-digit SPID. An ISDN PC card usually requires a ten-digit SPID. Follow the directions that come with the ISDN device to program it with a SPID and ISDN DN.

D-packet service (BRI cards only) The D-packet service supplied by the Modular ICS supports a point-of-sale terminal adapter (POSTA). Connecting a POSTA allows transaction terminals (devices where you “swipe” credit or debit cards) to transmit information using the D channel of the BRI line, while the B channels of the BRI line remain available for voice and data calls. A special adapter links transaction equipment (such as cash registers, credit card verification rigs, and point-of-sale terminals) to the X.25 network, a data communications network designed to transmit information in the form of small data packets. To support the D-packet service, your ISDN network and financial institution must be equipped with a D-packet handler. To convert the protocol used by the transaction equipment to the X.25 protocol, your ISDN network must also be equipped with an integrated X.25 PAD which works with the following versions of X.25: Datapac 32011, CCITT, T3POS, ITT and API. The ISDN service package you order must include D-packet service (for example, Package P in the U.S.; Microlink™ with D-channel in Canada). Your service provider supplies a Terminal Endpoint Identifier (TEI) and DN to support D-packet service. The TEI is a number between 00 and 63 (in Canada, the default range is 2163). Your service provider may also supply you with a DN to program your D-packet device. The DN for D-packet service becomes part of the dialing string used by the D-packet to call the packet handler. POSTA for ISDN BRI When you configure D-channel packet service, you are specifying the transmission path between an ISDN loop on the network side of the ICS and the ISDN loop on the set side (the loop used by the point-of-sale terminal adapter). The service is turned on and configured using the network loop

Point-of-sale terminal adapter The point-of-sale terminal adapter is an analog device that connects to point-of-sale devices using an RS-232 interface and a U-LT loop. It handles the routing of packet information from the devices to the ICS and into the ISDN network. Your service provider (usually a financial institution) supplies you with information about the compatible controller, which handles the routing of packet information from the devices to the ICS and into the ISDN network.

Trunks and target lines / 49

Trunks and target lines
Trunks are external lines that provide the physical connection between a Norstar system and other systems in a private or public network. Trunks are numbered 001 to 144 (in a fully expanded system). Norstar Modular ICS supports 6 different types of trunks: • PRI trunks are used for incoming and outgoing calls (twoway DID). Incoming calls are routed directly to a Norstar telephone. Outgoing calls are made using the intercom key. T1 trunks are digital trunks that can be configured to act as loop start, ground start, E&M, DID, or leased lines depending on your requirements. DID trunks route incoming calls from the public network directly to telephones within Norstar, without an attendant. Loop start trunks handle incoming and outgoing calls between Norstar and the public network. E&M trunks handle incoming and outgoing traffic between the Norstar system and the private network. BRI trunks handle incoming and outgoing calls between Norstar and an ISDN network.



• • • •

Target lines are virtual communication paths between trunks and telephones on the Norstar system. They are incoming lines only, and cannot be selected for outgoing calls. With 192 target lines in a fully expanded system, you can concentrate incoming calls on fewer trunks. This type of concentration is an advantage of DID lines, and Norstar target lines allow you to direct each DID number to one or more telephones. Target lines are numbered 145 to 336 in a fully expanded system and 145 to 272 in all others.

50 / Trunks and target lines

Telephones can be configured to have an appearance of any type of trunk and line (including target lines, excluding PRI trunks). If assigned, they are used for monitoring call usage. PRI trunks Primary Rate Interface (PRI) trunks give you incoming and outgoing access to an ISDN network and are auto-answer trunks. Note: PRI trunks are set to auto-answer by default and can not be changed. PRI trunks provide a fast, accurate and reliable means of sending and receiving data, images, text and voice information. Using PRI lines allows for faster transmission speeds and the addition of a variety of powerful business applications, including remote LAN access, video conferencing, file transfer and Internet access. For more information see Welcome to ISDN on page 17, Call by Call service selection for PRI on page 22, and Call by Call service selection for PRI on page 329. Ground start trunks (T1 only) Ground start trunks offer the same features as loop start trunks, but are used when the local service provider does not support disconnect supervision for the digital loop start trunks. Ground start trunks work with T1 only. There are 4 operating modes: • • • • ground start (T1 only) loopstart (analog and T1) E&M (analog and T1) DID (analog and T1)

By configuring lines as ground start, the system will be able to recognize when a call is released at the far end.

Tips - You cannot change the trunk mode for a ground start trunk on a DTI. It always has disconnect supervision.
A DTI can provide a maximum of 24 ground start trunks. Analog ground start trunks are not supported.

DID trunks DID trunks give you direct inward dialing (DID) from the public network. A typical application of these trunks is to map incoming digits onto target line appearances within the Norstar system. DID trunks can operate only as auto-answer trunks.

52 / Trunks and target lines

When a call comes in on a DID trunk, the Norstar system interprets the incoming digits in one of the following ways. • • If the digits map onto a target line, the call is routed to all telephones with an appearance of that target line. If the digits map onto the DISA DN, the caller hears stuttered dial tone. They must enter a 6-digit Class of Service password from a DTMF telephone to hear system dial tone. They can then enter a target line number, a line pool access code, or a remote feature code. If the digits map onto the Auto DN, the caller hears system dial tone. They can then enter a target line number, the DISA DN (the number that will call for a Class of Service password), a line pool access code, or a remote feature code from a DTMF telephone.



Tips - Each DID Trunk Cartridge can provide four DID
trunks. Each DID Trunk Cartridge also has four DTMF receivers dedicated to those trunks. A DTI can provide up to 24 DID trunks. You cannot configure a DID trunk as the prime line for a Norstar telephone. The capabilities available to a remote caller are determined by the remote filters and remote package assigned to a line, or by the set restrictions, line restrictions and remote package assigned to the Class of Service password.

Analog loop start trunks Loop start trunks give you incoming and outgoing access to the public network. Loop start trunks can be configured as manual-answer or auto-answer. The answer mode determines how the system handles incoming calls.
Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide P0881590 Issue 02

Trunks and target lines / 53

When a call comes in on a manual-answer loop start trunk, it alerts at all telephones with that line appearance. When a call comes in on an auto-answer loop start trunk that is configured to answer with direct inward system access (DISA), the caller hears a stuttered dial tone. They must enter a six-digit Class of Service (COS) password from a dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) telephone to access system dial tone. Once the caller has system dial tone, they can then enter a target line number, a line pool access code, or a remote feature code. By default, auto answer loop start trunks are configured to answer with DISA, and are used to provide controlled access to Norstar system resources. When a call comes in on an auto-answer loop start trunk that is not configured to answer with DISA, the caller hears system dial tone. They can then enter a target line number, the DISA DN (the number that will call for a Class of Service password), a line pool access code, or a remote feature code from a DTMF telephone. To place an outgoing call, a loop start line can be selected by pressing a line button on the telephone, dialing a line pool access code, or pressing a memory button that has been programmed with a line pool access code.

54 / Trunks and target lines

Tips - Loop start signaling is supported by Loop Start Trunk
Cartridges, Call Information (CI) Trunk Cartridges and Digital Trunk Interfaces (DTI). Each Loop Start Trunk Cartridge or CI Trunk Cartridge can provide four loop start trunks. A DTI can provide up to 24 loop start trunks. If you wish to configure your loop start trunks as auto-answer, the trunks must have disconnect supervision. For Loop Start or CI Trunk Cartridges installed in a Trunk Module, you will also need one E&M/DISA Trunk Cartridge for every two loop start trunks that you configure as auto-answer. The E&M/DISA Trunk Cartridge provides two DTMF receivers to receive the incoming digits from the central office. An auto-answer loop start trunk can give you the same kind of direct inward dialing function as a DID trunk. If your system includes both loop start trunks and DID trunks, you would typically use loop start trunks for outgoing calls and DID trunks for incoming calls. You may configure a loop start trunk as the prime line for a Norstar telephone. The capabilities available to a remote caller are determined by the remote filters and remote package assigned to a line, or by the set restrictions, line restrictions and remote package assigned to the Class of Service password. Two loopstart trunk cartridges are compatible with MICS-XC 4.0. The NT5B40GA-93 can be installed in trunk module (TM) slots only. The NT7B75GA-93 can be installed in either core slots three or four, or TM slots one, two or three.

BRI trunks provide a fast, accurate and reliable means of sending and receiving data, images, text and voice information. Using BRI lines allows for faster transmission speeds and the addition of a variety of powerful business applications, including remote LAN access, video conferencing, file transfer and Internet access. For more information see Welcome to ISDN on page 17. Target lines A target line is a specific communication path that is reached by means of digits received from an incoming trunk. Target lines are used to answer incoming calls but cannot be used to make outgoing calls. You can program auto-answer loop start and E&M trunks, and DID trunks to map to target lines to provide for attendant bypass (calling directly to a department or individual) and line concentration (one trunk can map onto several target lines). With all templates except the DID template, by default no target lines are assigned to sets. Target lines are referred to by line numbers (145-336 or 145272) in the same way as physical lines.

58 / Remote system access

Remote system access
The remote access feature allows callers elsewhere on the private or the public network to access a Norstar system by dialing directly without going through an attendant. Once in the system, the remote user can use some of the system's resources. The remote access must be enabled in programming before callers can use it. Norstar systems support remote system access on the following trunk types which may require the remote caller to enter a password for direct inward system access (DISA): • • • • auto-answer loop start trunks auto-answer E&M trunks DID trunks (by means of the DISA DN) PRI trunks (by means of the DISA DN)

The system resources (dialing capabilities, line pool access and feature access) that a remote user may access depends on the Class of Service (COS) assigned to them. See Class of Service on page 61, COS pswds on page 292 and the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide for more details. To use features on a Norstar system remotely, press • followed by the feature code. Even if you are calling from . another Norstar system, press • instead of ƒ Remote access on loop start and E&M trunks Loop start trunks provide remote access to Norstar from the public network; E&M trunks provide remote access from a private network. Each must be configured to be auto-answer to provide remote system access.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Remote system access / 59

A loop start trunk must have disconnect supervision if it is to operate in auto-answer mode. E&M trunks always operate in disconnect supervised mode. When a caller dials into the system on a line that has autoanswer, the system answers with system dial tone and no (COS) password is required. In this case, control over the system capabilities available to the caller is provided only by the restriction filters assigned to the line. When a caller dials in on a line that has auto-answer with DISA, the system answers with stuttered dial tone. This is the prompt to enter a COS password which determines which system capabilities are available to the caller. Remote access on a private network Nodes on the private network deliver the last dialed digits to the destination Norstar node, for interpretation by the destination Norstar node. The destination Norstar node either matches the digits to a target line or interprets the digits as a remote feature request. The call is either routed to the specified target line, or the remote feature is activated. By default, E&M trunks are set to answer with DISA. For auto-answer E&M trunks connected to a private network, change the default so that the trunks are not answered with DISA. If an auto-answer E&M trunk is configured to answer with DISA, the system tries to interpret any received digits as a COS password. The DISA DN and the Auto DN allow auto-answer private network and DID calls, in the same way that calls on auto-answer loop start and auto-answer E&M trunks can be

Remote access on Direct Inward Dial (DID) trunks Remote system access on DID trunks is similar to that of E&M trunks connected to a private network. The main differences are: • • • a remote caller is on the public network dialing standard local or long-distance telephone numbers the digits received are delivered by the central office DISA cannot be administered to a DID trunk

As with a private network, the dialed digits may be programmed to match those of a specific target line DN, the DISA DN or the Auto DN. Remote access on PRI trunks Remote system access on PRI trunks is similar to that of E&M trunks connected to a private network. The main differences are: • • • a remote caller is on the public network dialing standard local or long-distance telephone numbers the digits received are delivered by the central office answer with DISA cannot be administered to a PRI trunk

Networking features
Security Programming provides several ways of protecting your Norstar system from unauthorized access or use. Class of Service Class of Service (COS) refers to the capabilities that Norstar provides to users who access the system from the public or private network. The COS includes: • • filters that restrict dialing on the line an access package, which defines the set of line pools that may be accessed and whether or not the user has access to the paging feature.

The COS that is applied to an incoming remote access call is determined by: • • the filters that you apply to the incoming trunk the Class of Service password that the caller used to gain access to the Norstar system.

In cases where DISA is not automatically applied to incoming calls, the remote caller can change the COS by dialing the DISA DN and entering a COS password. To program COS passwords, see Passwords on page 292 and the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide. Restriction filters Restriction filters can be used to restrict the numbers that may be dialed on any external line within your Norstar system. Up to 100 restriction filters can be created for the system.

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

62 / Networking features

A restriction filter consists of up to 48 restrictions and their associated overrides. To restrict dialing within the system, you can apply restriction filters to outgoing external lines (as line restrictions), to telephones (as set restrictions), and to external lines on specific telephones (as line/set restrictions). Restriction filters can also be specified in Restriction Service, for times when the system is operating according to a Schedule. See Services on page 263 for more details.

Tips - Set restrictions have no effect on numbers dialed on an E&M trunk.
To restrict dialing outside the system (once a caller gains remote access), you can apply restriction filters to incoming external lines (as remote restrictions).

In this case, dialed digits must pass both the remote restriction and the line restriction. A remote caller can override these filters by dialing the DISA DN and entering a COS password. For restriction filter programming instructions, see Restrictions on page 234 and the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide. Direct inward system access (DISA) To control access from the public or private network, you can configure auto-answer trunks to answer with DISA. Remote callers hear a stuttered dial tone and must then enter a COS

password that determines what they are allowed to do in the system. Auto-answer loop start and E&M trunks are configured to answer with DISA by default. For DISA programming instructions, see Ans with DISA on page 254.

Tips - You must have one E&M/DISA Trunk Cartridge to
provide DTMF receivers for every two auto-answer loop start trunks on Loop Start or CI Trunk Cartridges. DID trunks cannot be configured to answer with DISA. If you want incoming DID calls to be answered with DISA, configure the system with a DISA DN. Incoming DID calls that map onto the DISA DN are then routed to a line that has DISA. For DISA programming instructions, see Ans with DISA on page 254.

Transparent dialing plan The Norstar system has a routing feature that allows you to set up a transparent or coordinated dialing plan with other systems in a public or private network. The goal is to have a networkwide dialing plan where all DN numbers are unique and of a uniform length. • • all set numbers in the network are the same length a set can be reached using a set number regardless of where the call originates in the network

Dialing plans are typically used with a network of systems with three to seven digit dialing access between them. Any programming for routing should be carefully planned using the tables supplied with the Programming Record. The settings for routing and destination codes are fully explained

in Services on page 263. This section deals with applying the programming in network situations. Dialing plan using public lines For example if you have a system in a network of three offices such as New York, Toronto and Santa Clara and they do not have routing, you would need to do one of the following: • A Norstar user in New York would have to select a line pool and dial a number such as 1-416-555-3227 to reach set 3227 in Toronto (416).

If you do have routing: • you could create a destination code of 3 and create a route that uses the proper line pool and DialOut, and the user simply dials 3227 (string dialed by the caller is the same as the called party’s intercom DN).

In the DialOut, P stands for pause, a host system signalling ‡ ° to insert a 1.5 second pause in option. Press ƒ the dialing string. See the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide for information about other signals. Destination code numbering in a network Because the system checks the initial digits of a call against the routing tables, each type of internal or external call must begin with a unique pattern of digits. The following table gives a sample plan for how initial digits are assigned in a network of systems with three-digit intercom numbers. For PRI there are no pool codes or separate external access codes.

In the table, 4 is used as the initial digit for the Coordinated Dialing Plan, but 5, or 6 could also be used for this purpose. Dialing plan using E&M lines By properly planning and programming routing tables and destination codes, an installer can create a dialing plan where: • E&M lines between Norstar systems are available to other systems in the network

The following figure and programming chart shows how a transparent dialing plan for a network of three Norstars. Each system must be running Norstar NA-MICS 4.0 or MICS-XC 4.0 software.

If a user in New York wishes to call Toronto within the network, they dial 6221. The local Norstar checks the number against the routing tables and routes the call according to the destination code 6, which places the call using Route 001. When the DialOut is added to the number by the New York system, the call appears on the auto answer line on the Norstar in Santa Clara as 6-221.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Networking features / 71

Because 6 is also a destination code on the Santa Clara system, another call is placed using route 002 from Santa Clara. This call arrives at the Toronto system, where the digits 6-221 are interpreted as a target line received number. The call will now alert at telephone 6221 in Toronto. Dialing plans with shared line pools Using routes and destination codes is a powerful and efficient way to create a transparent dialing plan. Line pools offer an alternate method of creating a dialing plan or supplementing the routing and destination codes. If the Norstar systems are close to each other geographically, you can conserve resources by not duplicating access. For example, system A, B, and C are all within the same area code. System A has a line pool to Santa Clara, System B has a line pool to Montreal, and system C has a line pool to Miami. A Norstar user in system A can reach Miami by calling system C and using their line pool to Miami. To simplify access between Norstar systems, all line pools that go to the same destination should have the same line pool access code. For example, system A and system B both have a line pool to Ottawa. You can configure both systems with the same line pool access code for the Ottawa line pool. A dialing plan similar to the one in the following figure will let you create a company directory that uses line pool access codes and unique DNs of a uniform length.

For instance, the person on system A at telephone 234 can press an Intercom button and dial 7434. This means that telephone 234 has dialed the line pool access code of the trunk to system C, and will receive the dial tone of system C. The digits 434 then map to the Received number 434, and ring telephone 434 with an appearance of the associated target line.

If the telephone used to make a network call has an appearance of a line used by the route, the call will move from the intercom button to the line button. The telephone used to make a network call must have access to the line pool used by the route. Network calls are external calls, even though they are dialed as if they were internal calls. Only the features and capabilities available to external calls can be used. When programming a button to dial a Network number automatically (autodial), network calls must be treated as external numbers, even though they resemble internal set numbers. Routes generally define the path between your Norstar switch and another switch in your network, not other individual telephones on that switch.

For dialing plan information with PRI, see Using a dialing plan to route outgoing PRI calls on page 283. PRI Networking with Meridian 1 This example shows a private network composed of one central Meridian 1, and two smaller sites with Norstar systems. This could represent a large head office (with the Meridian 1) connected to several smaller branch offices. In this network, only the head office has trunks connected to the public network. The branch offices access the public network via the private connection to the head office. This configuration allows for cost savings by consolidating the public access trunks. Users at all three locations access the public network by dialing ‘9’, followed by the public number. For example, a user in the west end branch might dial 9-5551212 (for a local call) or 9-1-613-555-1212 (for a long distance call). These public calls are routed to the Meridian 1

by the Norstar routing table. Routing tables at the Meridian 1 will then select an appropriate public facility for the call. Private network calls are made by dialing a 4-digit private network DN. For example, if a user in the west end branch wishes to call a user in the east end branch within the private network, they dial 6221.

Additional Configuration: In this example, outgoing public network calls dialed from a Norstar set are passed to the Meridian M1, and the Meridian M1 is responsible for seizing a public trunk. For this reason, the ‘9’ prefix is left in the number passed to the Meridian 1. This necessitates that the Public DN lengths table on each Norstar be modified to account for the extra leading digit. Essentially, the eight pre-configured entries are modified to include a leading ‘9’ in the prefix digits, and the length value for each entry is increased by one. The new entries are listed below.
Prefix Default 90 900 901 9011 91 9411 9911 8 12 13 18 19 12 4 4 Length

• •

Meridian M1 uses descending mode for PRI B-channel selection. The Meridian M1 must recognize calls dialed to 2xxx and 6xxx numbers, and route the call over PRI to either the East or West end offices. The same applies to incoming DID calls from the public network. The Meridian M1 must recognize numbers starting with ‘9’ as public numbers, whether the numbers are dialed by Meridian M1 users or by Norstar users.



Call-by-Call Services Example This example highlights the use of PRI Call-by-Call Services. It shows two offices of a company, one in New York and one in Toronto. Each office is equipped with a Norstar system and a PRI line. Each office has to handle incoming and outgoing calls to the public network. In addition, employees at each office often have to call colleagues in the other office. To reduce long-distance costs, and to allow for a coordinated

If call-by-call services were not used, each Norstar system might have to be equipped with the following trunks: • • • 12 DID lines needed to handle peak incoming call traffic. 8 Tie (E&M) lines needed to handle inter-office calls. 8 lines needed to handle outgoing public calls

The total required is thus 28 lines. If the Norstar systems were using T1 trunks, then two T1 spans would be required at each office. Note that the total of 28 lines represents the worst case value for line usage. In reality, the total number of lines in use at any one time will generally be less than 28. For example, during periods of peak incoming call traffic, the demand for outgoing lines will be low. With PRI call-by-call services, it is not necessary to configure a fixed allocation of trunks. Each of the 23 lines on the PRI can

be used for DID, Tie, or outgoing public calls. This consolidation means that it may be possible for each office to use a single PRI span, rather than two T1 spans. With PRI callby-call services, the only limitation is that there are no more than 23 calls in progress at any one time. The dialing plan at each Norstar site is configured to determine the call type based on the digits dialed by the user. If a user in Toronto wishes to dial a colleague in New York, they dial the 4-digit private DN (such as 6221). The dialing plan recognizes this as a private network DN, and routes the call using Tie service with a private numbering plan. Incoming Tie calls are routed to sets based on the digits received by the network, which in this case will be the 4-digit private DN. If a user in either location wishes to dial an external number, they dial ‘9’, followed by the number (such as 9-555-1212). The dialing plan recognizes this as a public DN, and routes the call using Public service. Incoming DID calls will be routed to sets based on the trailing portion of the digits received by the network. For example, if a public network user dials an employee in the Toronto office, the network will deliver digits 4167632221. Norstar will route the call using the last four digits, 2221.

Planning the installation
Only qualified persons should service the system.
The installation and service of this unit is to be performed only by service personnel having appropriate training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task and of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons. Electrical shock hazards from the telecommunication network and AC mains are possible with this equipment. To minimize risk to service personnel and users, the ICS must be connected to an outlet with a third-wire ground. In addition, all unused slots should have filler faceplates installed and the doors should be in place at the completion of any servicing. Service personnel must be alert to the possibility of high leakage currents becoming available on metal system surfaces during power line fault events near network lines. A risk point on the ICS is the power cord earth ground pin. These leakage currents normally safely flow to Protective Earth ground via the power cord. Therefore, it is mandatory that connection to a grounded outlet is performed first and removed last when cabling to the unit. Specifically, operations requiring the unit to be powered down must have the network connections (central office lines) removed first.

Upgrading your Norstar system
If you have any previous version of MICS software, you must use the upgrade tool to upgrade to MICS 4.0. If this is a new installation, the upgrade tool is not required. If you do not use the upgrade tool all your programming will be lost. If you do not need to keep your existing programming, you do not have to use the upgrade tool. When making simultaneous hardware and software upgrades (e.g. 12-port expansion plus a MICS 4.0 software upgrade), upgrade your software release before making your hardware upgrades. Make sure to power up after the new software has been installed. Upgrading in this order maintains your 0X32 ICS programming data for use with NA-MICS 4.0 and MICS-XC 4.0. MICS NVRAM cartridge
Do not install a MICS NVRAM cartridge from other MICS 4.0 systems. This will cause all the programming to be lost. Do not use an incorrect upgrade tool when upgrading. For example, do not use the NA-MICS 4.0 upgrade tool when upgrading from MICS-XC 3.0. Do not attempt to use the MICS NVRAM cartridge as stored data transfer. This will cause the system to cold start.

A new MICS NVRAM cartridge is available for additional Non Volatile Read-only Memory (NVRAM). This new cartridge includes a cartridge assembly that inserts into the Modular ICS.

The assembly cartridge has a slot for a credit-card size PCcard (also called Flash cards) that contains the system software. These flash cards accommodate future system memory requirements and software downloading. The Modular ICS NVRAM cartridge with the new Modular ICS ROM software cartridge is used to upgrade from earlier versions of MICS to MICS 4.0.

Using the Upgrade Tool to upgrade from previous versions of MICS
1. Power down. 2. Disconnect all amphenol cables. 3. Remove the power to the ICS and all associated modules. Disconnecting the power ensures protection for electronic components and that the data stored in the feature cartridge will not be corrupted. 4. Remove your old Norstar MICS software cartridge. 5. This step determines the type of MICS 4.0 system you will ultimately upgrade to. Insert the MICS 4.0 NVRAM cartridge. See illustration on page 137. Insert the PC-card (or Flash card) that came with your upgrade tool package. See illustration on page 137.
Make sure to use the appropriate MICS 4.0 upgrade tool (NA-MICS 4.0, CDA-MICS-XC or USA-MICS-XC) when upgrading. Refer to Supported upgrades in MICS 4.0 on page 114. Your Norstar system will cold start (data will be lost) if the MICS ROM software cartridge that came in your upgrade tool does not match your MICS 4.0 system.

6. Power up. Wait until display flashing stops. I n s e r t MICS C a r d is displayed. 7. Power down. Insert the Modular ICS ROM software cartridge to perform the final stage of the upgrade to MICS 4.0. See Installing the ROM Software Cartridge on

page 137 to verify that you are using the proper software cartridge. 8. Power up. If no alarm-event messages are observed, the upgrade to MICS 4.0 has been performed. If alarm codes are displayed, refer to Alarm codes on page 389 for definitions. If event messages are displayed refer to Event messages on page 397 for definitions. Notes
All old programming is maintained when upgrading from the 0X32 Release 1 - T1 software, with the following exceptions:
• all system passwords are reverted to the system defaults • ATA ans timer setting is reverted to the system default setting

It is recommended to have an accurate record of your existing system programming so that you can plan your new system programming appropriately.
When upgrading from MICS 1.1, note that the Call log space has increased from 300 to 600.
Reallocate log space after upgrading.

If you have a Norstar system with a Modular 8X24 Key Service Unit (KSU), you cannot upgrade your software with the Upgrade Tool. If you want to upgrade to MICS 4.0, you must replace your older Modular 8X24 KSU with the current 0X32 ICS and program the system. Note: The Key Service Unit (KSU) has been renamed the Integrated Communication System (ICS).

Installation
Only qualified persons should service the system.
The installation and service of this unit is to be performed only by service personnel having appropriate training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task and of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons. Electrical shock hazards from the telecommunication network and AC mains are possible with this equipment. To minimize risk to service personnel and users, the ICS must be connected to an outlet with a third-wire ground. In addition, all unused slots should have filler faceplates installed and the doors should be in place at the completion of any servicing. Service personnel must be alert to the possibility of high leakage currents becoming available on metal system surfaces during power line fault events near network lines. A risk point on the ICS is the power cord earth ground pin. These leakage currents normally safely flow to Protective Earth ground via the power cord. Therefore, it is mandatory that connection to a grounded outlet is performed first and removed last when cabling to the unit. Specifically, operations requiring the unit to be powered down must have the network connections (central office lines) removed first.

(for a fully analog trunk system) or a Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge can be installed in ICS slot 1 for a 12-port (mega) system with digital or BRI lines. Two Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge are supported on a mega configuration using both ICS slots 1 and 2. When expanding beyond 6 ports, it is recommended two Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge be used if two DTI cards are installed. For a 12-port (mega) system, any combination of the 6-port fiber Expansion and the Combination Fiber 6-port Services Cartridge is supported using both ICS slots 1 and 2. A copper Expansion Cartridge is a full-width cartridge and covers both ICS slots 1 and 2. One 6-port copper Expansion Cartridge is supported for a maxi configuration and can only be installed in slot 1. One 2-port copper Expansion Cartridge is supported for a midi configuration and can only be installed in slot 1. Depending on your system configuration, BRI-ST, BRI-U2, and BRI-U4 cards can only reside in certain trunk modules. In a midi system, the cards must be in trunk modules 3 or 4, for a maxi or mega system, the cards must be in trunk modules 7 or 8. The cards can reside in the ICS regardless of system size.

Alarm Telephone will indicate a warm or cold reset.
An alarm and a prompt indicating warm or cold reset will occur on the alarm telephone if an expansion cartridge is installed in the wrong ICS slot or when the system size has been decreased.

PCB is electrostatic-sensitive.
Do not touch the printed circuit board on a cartridge. This is an electrostatic-sensitive device.

1. Install trunk cartridges in the ICS beginning with Slot 4 then Slot 3. 2. Install trunk cartridges in the trunk modules beginning with Slot 1 then Slot 2 and then Slot 3. For easier wiring, install similar type Trunk Cartridges together in the same Trunk Module. If you install an E&M or a DID or BRI Trunk Cartridge in the left-most slot (slot 1) of a TM, emergency telephones cannot be supported for that Trunk Module. Terminating resistors on BRI-ST Cards The standard ISDN user-network interface wiring requires terminating resistors at each end of the loop for point-to-point operation. This ensures correct timing of the signaling circuits. Loop termination can be provided at either the point where the ISDN terminal is attached, or by the device attached to the loop (with built-in termination). Because the Modular ICS is usually at one end of the loop, the BRI-ST card is shipped with termination built-in for each ISDN loop. It is ready to be used

Connecting expansion modules
If your system includes fiber Trunk Modules, fiber Station Modules, Data Modules or Analog Station Modules, you need to connect the modules to the Expansion Cartridge by means of fiber cables. Order of connection In order to keep the default port and set numbering, connect Trunk Modules to the Expansion Cartridge beginning at the top and working down; connect Station Modules to the Expansion Cartridge beginning at the bottom and working up. Norstar Integrated Data Module 200 If you are installing the ICS system with the Norstar Integrated Data Module 200, refer to Installing optional equipment on page 191 and the Norstar Integrated Data Module 200 Installer Guide. Companion If you are expanding your system to include Companion components, see the upgrade instructions included in the MICS-XC Norstar-Companion Installer Guide.

Analog Station Module If you are installing the ICS system with an ASM, refer to the Analog Station Module Installation Guide.

Tips - On a midi system, ports 3 and 4 can be used for Trunk
Modules or Station Modules. In this case, connect Trunk Modules beginning at the top (port 4); connect Station Modules beginning at the bottom (port 3). On a maxi system, ports 3 through 8 can be used for Trunk Modules or Station Modules. In this case, Trunk Modules should be connected beginning at the top (port 8) and working down; Station Modules should be connected beginning at the bottom (port 3) and working up. On a fully expanded 12-port (mega) system, connect Trunk Modules beginning at the top (port 8) and working down; Station Modules would be connected beginning at the bottom (port 3) and working up. Trunk Modules cannot be connected to the Expansion Cartridge in slot 1. When no more Station Modules can be added to the Expansion Cartridge in slot 2, connect additional Station Modules to the Expansion Cartridge in slot 1, beginning at the bottom (port 9) and working up.

Using the fiber cable management system To facilitate the installation of an NA-MICS 4.0 or MICS-XC 4.0 configuration, the Fiber Cable Management System ensures that power cords are located outside of the cable tray and that a 2.6 cm (1 in.) space exists between the ICS module and other modules. The following hardware components are used in the Fiber Cable Management System: • Fiber Comb (one per system): The Fiber Comb, is installed, using an adhesive back, on the ICS, below the fiber expansion cartridges. The Fiber Comb keeps the fiber cable in place and prevents the cables from being pinched between doors. Use the comb to keep fiber cables organized as they are routed to each Station Module, as shown in the 12-port example below.

codes on page 389). The port numbers (for example: “XX12”) on the Trunk Cartridge and Station Module wiring charts have two components: • “XX” corresponds to the number that appears on the face of the Expansion Cartridge port that the Trunk Module or Station Module is connected to. digits (for example “01” or “12”) identify an individual port number associated with that module.



For example: The code “812” appearing as part of an error message for a Trunk Module indicates that the problem is with Expansion Cartridge port #8 and internal port “12”. The corresponding Trunk Module pins on the distribution block are pin 47 (violet-orange) and pin 22 (orange-violet). Integrated Communications System (ICS) In the charts on the following pages, notice that the ICS has two internal modules, ICS #1 and ICS #2. ICS #1 handles telephones and auxiliary equipment. ICS #2 handles lines. B1 and B2 directory numbers The terms B1 and B2 correspond to channels on Norstar for transmitting voice and data. Each DN port number has a B1 DN and a B2 DN. Devices such as the Norstar M7100, M7208, M7310, and M7324 telephones use only the B1 DN. Other devices may need both B1 and B2 channels, therefore requiring B1 and B2 DNs. CTA 500dm If you are attaching a Computer Telephony Adapter (CTA) 500dm to the ICS, use one of the last ten on-core DN ports (123-132). You can connect a maximum of 10 CTAs to the system. See the instructions that come with the adapter for more information.

Port 3 is the bottom fiber cable port on both the two-port and the six-port Expansion Cartridge in slot 2. Port 9 is the bottom fiber cable port located on the left most expansion card in slot 1. B1 and B2 directory numbers reflect the default numbering scheme. If you expand your system after initial installation and programming, there may appear to be gaps in your B1 DN numbering. This is because the system has already assigned DN numbers to B2 channels. You can correct these gaps by performing Startup programming and resetting the system memory, or by changing the individual DNs. See in C h a n g e D N s under S y s t e m prgrming.

BRI Wiring charts A BRI Card in Slot 4 uses loops 201 through 204. A BRI card in Slot 3 uses loops 225 through 228. Because a BRI-U2 Card has only two loops, it only uses the first two loop numbers (201-202 and 225-226) when it occupies an ICS slot.

Connecting the wiring / 167

The loops appearing on a BRI card may be automatically assigned lines, or assigned one or more ISDN DNs in Hardware programming. If the loop is configured as T or NT, lines are automatically assigned. If the loop is configured as S or LT, you can assign one or more ISDN DNs to the loop. The emergency telephone connections (ET2 and ET1) cannot be used if a BRI card is installed in Slot 3 or Slot 4, respectively. Detailed information about configuring BRI cards is included in the ISDN chapter and in the Hardware section of the Programming chapter.

For an explanation of port numbering, see Port numbering on the wiring charts on page 158. For CCI connections in Service column: NC1 stands for the normally closed relay and Com1 the common relay. CCI signaling is not supported by all carriers. For carriers or installations that do not use CCI signaling, the CCI and ET connections should be treated as “no connection”. CCI wiring is a non-standard wiring arrangement which has been submitted to the DOC.

DID supervisory signaling This equipment is designed to return supervisory signals to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) when the DID calls are: • • • • answered by the called telephone answered by the attendant routed to a customer controlled recorded announcement routed to a dial prompt
P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

Connecting the wiring / 179

This equipment is designed to return supervisory signals on all DID calls forwarded through the system back to the PSTN within 20 seconds of the call forwarding sequence being initiated. Emergency transfer conditions Every DID Trunk Cartridge has a Control Circuit Interface (CCI) which should be connected directly to the central office for monitoring purposes. If the Norstar system loses power or the microcontroller on the DID Trunk Cartridge malfunctions, the CCI signals the central office that it can no longer handle DID calls. The central office, by prearrangement, can then forward the DID lines to other numbers. Connect the CCI com1 connection to a ground connection. Connect the CCI NC1 connection to the central office demarcation.

Tips - The CCI signaling to report power loss or
malfunction of the DID Trunk Cartridge is not supported by all carriers. For carriers or installations which do not use CCI signaling, the CCI and ET connections should be treated as “no connection”. Wire each CCI independently to the central office. If the connections are wired in parallel, any CCI trouble disables all DID Trunk Cartridges. If the connections are wired in series, all DID Trunk Cartridges must fail before the central office recognizes the trouble condition.

If you are installing Companion portable telephones, see the information included in the MICS-XC Norstar-Companion Installer Guide.

The emergency telephone
You can connect an emergency telephone to an ICS or Trunk Module with a Loop Start Trunk Cartridge to provide emergency service when there is no power to the ICS. The ICS has emergency telephone connections for lines 002 and 026. Each Trunk Module has one emergency telephone connection. 1. Wire a modular jack or equivalent to each set of emergency telephone pins on the 50-pin distribution block for the ICS or Trunk Module external lines. (See the Wiring charts on page 158 for the pin numbers.) 2. Connect a single-line telephone (500/2500) to the modular jack. 3. Prepare to test the emergency telephone by removing the Trunk Cartridge from the slot (slot 3 or 4 on the ICS, and slot 1 on the TM). 4. Connect the power, then connect the central office lines to the ICS. 5. Pick up the emergency telephone receiver and listen for dial tone. 6. Disconnect the central office lines, then remove power from the system. 7. Replace the Trunk Cartridge in the left slot. 8. Continue with procedures for powering up the system.

186 / Norstar telephones

Tips - The emergency telephone connections on the Trunk
Module will not work if there is an E&M/DISA, a BRI-ST or BRI-U card or a DID Trunk Cartridge in the first slot of the Trunk Module. The emergency telephone connections on the ICS will not work if DTIs or PRIs are used.

Tips - Norstar telephones cannot be used as off-premise sets
(OPX). For OPX applications, use the Norstar Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) and a single-line telephone. See the Norstar ATA Installation Card for details.

Moving Norstar telephones You can move a Norstar telephone to a new location within the Norstar system without losing its programmed settings. When Set relocation (automatic telephone relocation) is enabled in system programming, the internal numbers, autodial settings, and personal speed dial codes remain with the telephone when it is unplugged. To move a telephone, simply unplug it and plug it in again at another location. It may take up to 45

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Norstar telephones / 187

seconds for the ICS to recognize the telephone. Automatic telephone relocation is disabled by default.

Tips - All Norstar telephones being moved should be relocated before new telephones are plugged into their place. This allows the moved telephones to retain their programmed settings. If a new telephone is plugged into the Norstar system before the old telephone is reconnected at a new location, Norstar will give the old telephone’s information to the new telephone, and the old telephone will no longer be recognized by the system.
When changing a telephone's internal number (in programming), wait one minute after Automatic Telephone Relocation. When you relocate a Norstar telephone, the telephone must remain installed and connected in the new location for at least 3 minutes for the programming relocation to be complete. Moving the telephone again before the 3 minute period may result in losing the telephone’s programming.

S or T extension wiring configurations The last connection on any ISDN S or T extension wiring must have terminating resistors to ensure correct timing of the signaling circuits. Failure to install terminating resistors will degrade performance. Terminating resistors should not be connected on a TE which is not the last connection on the loop. Terminating resistors are provided on terminal equipment. See the instructions that come with your TE for information on how to enable or disable the termination, as required.

The maximum length of spur and ISDN connection cord (the extension from the main line or bus) is 10 m (30 ft). See the ISDN chapter for information about wiring arrangements for ISDN terminal equipment (TE) on an S or T loop. Additional power A Norstar S or T-loop does not provide power on Power Source 1 (PS1), Power Source (PS2), or Power Source or Sink 3 (PS3). If you are installing ISDN terminal equipment at the S-reference point, and the equipment requires additional power on PS1, PS2, or PS3, then you can install a suitably approved power supply unit. See ANSI T1.605 or the documentation that comes with your TE for details. The Modular ICS does not require power on PS3. If a phantom circuit (a wiring arrangement using side circuits) is used to provide power to the TE (PS1), it may affect loop performance. You must account for any effects. For example, you may need to reduce the number of TEs on a passive bus.

196 / Powering up the system

Powering up the system
1. Double-check all wiring before turning the system power on. Do not connect central office line cables to the ICS, TMs, SMs or IDMs until after turning the system power on. 2. Route the TM, SM and IDM power cords through the lower shelf of the cable trough and out through the bottom of the ICS cable trough. 3. Route the ICS power cord through the bottom of the ICS cable trough. 4. Connect each power cord (ICS, TM, SM and IDM) to an electrical outlet (non-switchable, third-wire ground AC outlet). If you are using a power bar, plug the power cords into the power bar and connect the power bar to the AC outlet.
Do not fasten power supply cords.
Do not fasten the ICS power supply cord or module power supply cords to any building surface, including the backboard.

Close and lock the ICS door.
Close and lock the ICS door after installation is complete to avoid accidental shock and to provide containment in the event of fire.

Install Base Stations before powering up the MICS-XC 4.0 system.
For information on installing Companion Wireless components, refer to your MICS-XC NorstarCompanion Installer Guide.
Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide P0881590 Issue 02

Powering up the system / 197

Check that the power is on
After the power is supplied, the ICS PSU will light up green. If a BRI cartridge is installed, the LEDs on the faceplate of the cartridge will flash for up to 5 minutes. Telephones and lines may take up to 5 minutes to initialize. 1. Check that the power LEDs of the PSU, the TMs, the SMs and the IDMs are on. The power LED on the IDM will be flashing. 2. If none of the LEDs are on, verify that power is present at the outlet. If there is power at the outlet, see “Problems for network or remote users” on page 459.

Tips - During system initialization, the system performs a self-diagnostic test on the hardware configuration size and expansion cartridge installation.
Once the system is initialized and the telephone displays read J a n 1 1 : 0 0 a m , you have fifteen minutes in which to perform Startup programming. After 15 minutes, access to Startup programming is denied. You can turn the system power off and back on if you need to access Startup programming after this point.

Tips - After system startup, you can turn the power off and
on and retain any system data that has been entered. This is considered a “warm” start. A warm start takes approximately 5-10 minutes.

Programming
The installer or the customer service representative programs settings for the entire Norstar system, plus settings for individual telephones and external lines. Most of the settings can also be programmed by a system coordinator who has a “plus” (SysCoord+) password. The SysCoord+ password should only be used by individuals who are capable of programming the Norstar ICS. However, this level of access should only be distributed to System Coordinators who are more experienced in programming the Norstar ICS.
Programming affects system operation.
Only a qualified installer or customer service representative should perform startup, installation and maintenance programming. Some of the settings affect the correct operation of the system.

Programming overview
Programming access is controlled by four passwords. • • Installer password – allows you to see and change any item in programming. System Coordinator Plus password – provides knowledgeable users with access to all but a few sensitive areas of programming. You should only distribute this password to experienced System Coordinators. System Coordinator password – used to view and change the settings that are part of day-to-day administration of the Norstar system. This level of access is documented in the Modular ICS System Coordinator Guide. Basic password – used with a limited number of feature codes to change programming and control system services.

Depending on the activities going on in the system, a copy may not take effect for a while. The brief display you see once you have finished a copying session does not indicate the process is complete. You can leave the programming session even if the copy has not been completed. If you exit programming, copying will continue uninterrupted until it is complete. Event messages capture both the start and completion of the copying process. For more information, see Event messages on page 397. Some programming settings allow you to choose a delay according to the number of rings. The ring counts used are based on a North American standard of six seconds per ring cycle. The actual delay time may be different for a device other than a Norstar telephone.

Startup programming / 215

Startup programming
After the hardware has been installed and powered up, use Startup to initialize the system, and select one of the two system templates that best suits your system.
Startup erases programming.
Startup erases any existing programmed data, and resets the system to factory defaults.

Performing Startup
1. Enter the Startup access code from a Norstar M7310 or M7324 telephone dial pad, by pressing ƒ • • Í Ê Å Â Ê Ë which is the same as ƒ • • ‡ ° ¤ ‡ ° ° ‡ .
To be accepted, the Startup code must be entered no later than 15 minutes after the Norstar system has been powered up. (If 15 minutes have elapsed since you powered up the system, turn system power off and on, to prepare for the Startup process.)

2. Enter the Installer password. The default is Ç Ø ˆ Ï È Ì which is the same as ¤ fl fl ‹ › › .

Tips - The Installer password shown is the default normally used for Startup. For a system which has already been programmed, the Installer password might have been changed in programming and recorded in the Programming Record. Changing the default template
After entering the Startup access code and Installer password the display shows R e s e t m e m o r y ? . 1. Press YES to select a default template. The display shows the current template.

2. Press CHANGE to choose the appropriate template.
Changing template resets programming.
If you change your system template, your programming will be reset.

Changing the starting DN number
You can change the starting number for your telephone directory numbers (DNs). This is helpful when your system is part of a network and you want to use a uniform series of directory numbers for all telephones in your network. With the display showing the current template. 1. Press ‘ 2. Press CHANGE. 3. Enter the new directory number you want as the starting DN and press OK. The display shows the new range of DN numbers. to store the programming. The display 4. Press ‘ shows A p p l y n g t e m p l a t e . The indicators begin to flash after a few moments, then the display shows J a n 1 1 : 0 0 a m. . The display shows the current start DN.

Tips - All programming is retained for three days if the
power fails or if the Norstar system is powered off. After three days without power, it may be necessary to perform Startup. The length of the new DN can be from three to seven digits on all systems.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Startup programming / 217

The length of the directory number that you enter sets the length for all directory numbers and target line received numbers in the system. A DN length change, if required, should be the first programming change on a newly installed Norstar system. If you reduce the length of the directory numbers in D N l e n g t h in S y s t e m p r g r m i n g , the starting DN number is reset to the default value (221). If you increase the length of directory numbers in D N l e n g t h in S y s t e m p r g r m i n g , each increase in length places the digit 2 in front of any existing DN. For example, if DN 3444 was increased to a length of 6, the new DN would be 223444. If the new DNs clash with the direct-dial digit, park prefix, or line pool codes or destination codes, those numbers are overridden and set to None.

Do not disable or enable ports in Maintenance programming during the first two minutes after Startup programming.

Entering programming for system coordinators
The person on staff who is in charge of making changes on the Norstar system is called the system coordinator. The everyday programming done by system coordinators is described in Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide. Some system coordinators need to be able to program more advanced settings and functions in order to carry out the dayto-day requests and upkeep of the Norstar. These coordinators are usually dedicated communications specialists who work with large Norstar systems or other telephone systems like PBX or Centrex. By using a special password, a system coordinator can see and change many, but not all, of the programming settings used by an installer. In this guide, programming that can only be changed by an installer is marked in the heading. If you are programming using the System Coordinator Plus password, you will not see these items when you move through

Entering programming using other passwords
A set of the most often used headings and subheadings is available by using a System Coordinator password (see page 203). This level of access is designed for the average user who takes care of the day-to-day changes to the Norstar system, but who is not interested in more advanced programming. The default password is ADMIN (23646). There is also a Basic password that can be used to perform a few programming tasks. The default password is BASIC (22742). By using this password, a system coordinator can delegate some responsibilities while keeping more sensitive programming secure.

Terminals&Sets
Terminals&Sets lets you assign settings to each telephone. 1. Press and enter the set number of the telephone you would like to program. 2. Press COPY to duplicate the programming for the telephone and apply it to another telephone, a range of telephones or all the telephones on the system. For more information about copying set programming, see Copying telephone programming on page 209.

Line access
Line access allows you to assign lines to individual telephones. When you are finished programming Line access settings for one telephone, you can copy those settings to other telephones. In some cases, Line access programming for Norstar Companion portables works differently than it does for desk sets. See the MICS-XC Norstar-Companion Installer Guide for information. PRI lines can only be configured as direct inward dialing (DID) lines. Therefore, PRI lines are always Auto Answer and cannot be Manual Answer.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

P0881590 Issue 02

Terminals&Sets / 223

Tip - When you assign line access for BRI loops which have
only one SPID, make sure that the programming for the two lines on a BRI loop is identical. For example, if line 001 on BRI loop 201 appears at a DN, line 002 on the same loop should appear at the DN as well. See the ISDN chapter for more information about programming BRI lines. In general, auto-answer loop start trunks and auto-answer BRI trunks are not assigned to telephones. If assigned, they are used for monitoring incoming call usage, or for making outgoing calls.

Line assignment This setting allows you to assign physical trunks and target lines to each telephone. Target lines are assigned and removed in the same manner as other lines. Press and enter the line number. Press CHANGE to change the setting for each line: Unassigned, Ring only, Appr&Ring, and Appr only. Broadcast ring group ability is possible with multiple target line assignment across a group of sets. Appearances This setting only applies for direct inward dial (DID) lines (145 to 272 for MICS, and 145-336 for XC). These lines are also referred to as target lines. The Norstar system can handle simultaneous calls to the same DID line on the same set (multiple target line appearances). The number of DID appearances depends on the line assignment setting (Appr&Ring, Ring only, Appr only). If Appr&Ring or Appr only is chosen, you can have as many simultaneous DID calls as there are target line key

P0881590 Issue 02

appearances. If Ring only is chosen, you can have as many simultaneous DID calls as you have intercom keys. Users cannot access PRI lines directly through line appearances or line pools. All outgoing PRI calls are dialed via intercom using routing codes. When a trunk card is changed to PRI, all existing line appearances for that card are automatically removed. The Basic Set, ATA, portable and BRI ISDN S-terminals cannot process more than 2 simultaneous calls. There is a suggested limit of 4 keys per set. You can program more than 4 keys on an set by programming less than 4 on other sets. For instance, you might program 20 keys on a receptionist set equipped with a CAP. The Norstar system will not support a mixture of Appear only and Ring only appearances. 1. Enter the line number. The display shows the line number and its assignment. 2. Press until the display shows Appearances:1.

3. Press CHANGE and enter the number of target line appearances. 4. Press ® to exit or ‘ to continue programming.

Tips - Press SCAN to view the lines assigned to this telephone.
In general, auto-answer loop start trunks, auto-answer E&M trunks and DID trunks are not assigned to telephones. If assigned, they are used for monitoring incoming call usage, or for making outgoing calls (auto-answer loop start and E&M trunks). In general, fixed data channel trunks are not assigned to telephones. If assigned, they are used for monitoring call usage. You cannot assign a line that is private to another telephone. Each line assigned to appear at a telephone must appear at a button with an indicator on that telephone. The maximum number of line buttons are 8 for the M7208 telephone, 10 for the M7310 telephone, and 24 for the M7324 telephone. If you set a line to Ring only, incoming calls appear on an intercom button. A central answering position (CAP), with one or two CAP modules, can provide extra line buttons if more than 24 lines are assigned to the CAP. The remaining lines appear at buttons on the CAP module. The M7100 telephone is an exception; it has no line buttons and can be assigned any number of lines. Make sure that lines assigned to an M7100 telephone are assigned to ring; otherwise, you cannot detect incoming calls on the lines.

Line pool access This setting allows a telephone to access one or more of the fifteen line pools available (A to O). When you assign “yes”

for a given line pool, the telephone being programmed can access any lines in that line pool. Press then press ‘ to scroll through the settings and display the line pool you want to program access to. Press CHANGE to select the setting: N (No) and Y (Yes). Two exclusive line pools are available for PRI lines. There can be a maximum two DTI cards (PRI) on a Norstar system, therefore the two possible line pools are PRI-A and PRI-B. Only PRI lines can belong to a PRI pool. PRI lines cannot belong to Line Pools A through O, and all lines on a single DTI card (PRI) belong to the same pool. Lines from multiple DTI cards (PRI) can belong to the same pool if they are configured with the same protocol. PRI lines are assigned to pools with the L i n e t y p e setting. Prime line This setting assigns a prime line to the telephone. A prime line is the first line that is automatically selected when a call is made from a Norstar telephone. Press CHANGE to select the setting: None, Pool (A to O), and I/C (intercom). Only assigned lines and line pools appear. PRI pools are not valid selections for a Prime line.

Tips - An assigned prime line is not associated with the assignment of a prime telephone.
An external line must be assigned to the telephone in Line assignment before it can be assigned as the prime line to the telephone. A line pool must be assigned to the telephone in line pool access before a line pool can be assigned as the prime line to the telephone. A target line cannot be a prime line for a telephone because it is incoming-only. A DID line should not be assigned as the prime line for a telephone. If assigned, it is treated as if no prime line has been assigned. The message S e l e c t a l i n e appears when the receiver is lifted. Remember that if you set prime line to I/C (intercom), you may wish to assign loop start lines to the first line pools. When the system searches for an outgoing line, it begins at line pool A and chooses the first available line. By assigning a line pool as a prime line, a telephone can be made to search automatically for an idle line in a pool. This is described in the section on programming Line type (T r k / L i n e D a t a ).

Intercom keys This setting assigns the number of intercom buttons to a telephone. Intercom buttons provide a telephone with access to internal lines and line pools. Press CHANGE to select the setting: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.

Tips - Each intercom button assigned during programming
automatically appears on the telephone. The buttons start with the lower right-hand button, or one button above if the Handsfree/Mute feature is assigned to the telephone. A telephone needs two intercom buttons to be able to establish a conference call with two other Norstar telephones. Only one intercom button may be required if the button will only be used to make and receive internal calls, and to access line pools. Two intercom buttons are required if a telephone has several lines assigned to ring only. The M7100 telephone default assignment of two Intercom buttons be changed to up to 8 buttons. These buttons do not appear on the telephone.

Answer DNs Calls for other Norstar telephones can appear and be answered at the telephone being programmed. The DNs of the other telephones are referred to as Answer DNs. Press and enter the Answer DN. Press CHANGE to change the setting for the Answer DN: Unassigned, Appr&Ring or Appr only. To assign additional Answer DNs, press ‘ the next Answer DN. , then enter

Terminals&Sets / 229

Tips - Press SCAN to view the Answer DNs assigned to this telephone.
Every Answer DN assigned to the telephone automatically assigns an Answer button with an indicator to the telephone. These buttons should be labeled accordingly, identifying the telephone with its name or DN. The maximum number of Answer DNs that can be assigned to a particular Norstar set is eight. More than one telephone can have an Answer button for the same DN. In this way, more than one telephone can provide call alerting and call answering for any calls directed to that DN. When a call to a Norstar set is received via Call Forwarding, the Answer DN for that set will not alert.

OLI # For PRI, the OLI# is based on the set number. However, when you make an outgoing call on a BRI line, the Call Display information which appears on the telephone you are calling is usually based on the first Network DN associated with the service profile identifier (SPID) and line. If the SPID and line have more than one Network DN, you can program a DN to use a Network DN other than the first one for the outgoing Call Display information. When you program the alternate Network DN as the ten-digit outgoing line identification (OLI) number, and you make a call using the line associated with the Network DN, the OLI number appears on the telephone you are calling. If an outgoing call is made using a SPID and line that are not associated with the Network DN number used as the OLI number, the network ignores the number and the default Call

Display information (the first or only Network DN associated with the SPID and line) is displayed. 1. Press CHANGE and enter the 10 digits used for the OLI. 2. Press CLR to choose None. Note: If your system is equipped with a mixture of digital line cards, it is recommended that sets be programmed to use line pools when making calls. If line pools are not properly configured, a set may use a line with a network range that does not include the set’s CLI, causing the network to present an incorrect CLID to the called party.

For more information about copying set programming, see Copying telephone programming on page 209. Filters A restriction filter is a set or group of restrictions and overrides that specify the external numbers or feature codes that cannot be dialed from a telephone or on a line. Rather than define individual restrictions and apply them repeatedly to telephones and to lines, restriction filters let you assign them in one step as a single package of dialing sequences that are not permitted. In addition to restricting telephone numbers, you can prevent people from entering dialing sequences used by the central office (the public network) to deliver special services and features. Because some of these features provide the caller with dial tone after they have entered the special code (which often uses £ or • ), users may have an opportunity to bypass restrictions. To prevent this from happening, you should create filters that block these special codes. You create a filter by defining the dialing sequences that are denied. There will also be variations of each sequence that you will want users to be able to dial. Sequences that can be dialed are called overrides. Once you create the filters, you can assign the restrictions to a telephone (under T e r m i n a l s & S e t s ), to a line (under L i n e s ), to a particular line on a telephone (under T e r m i n a l s & S e t s ), and to remote callers (under R e m o t e a c c e s s ). and enter the number of the restriction 1.

Default filters Filter 00 permits unrestricted dialing and cannot be changed. Filter 01 is pre-programmed with five restrictions and some associated overrides. In Filter 01, restriction 02 and override 005 allow long distance directory assistance calls. Filter 01 reflects the fact that area codes can now have any digit as a second digit. This is designed to be used with the North American dialing plan. The dialing string 911 (the number for emergency assistance in North America) is included as both a restriction and an override in filter 01. This arrangement prevents anyone from blocking calls for emergency assistance on lines or sets using the default filter.

Tips - Filter 00 cannot be changed.
Norstar can have up to 100 restriction filters (00 to 99). Each programmable filter can have up to 48 restrictions. There is no limit on the number of overrides that can be allocated to a restriction. There is a maximum of 400 restrictions and overrides allocated to the 100 programmable filters. The maximum length of a restriction is 15 digits. The maximum length of an override is 16 digits. A single dot (•) in a dialing sequence is a wild card (stands for any digit). It is inserted by pressing ANY. You can use • and £ in a sequence of numbers in either a restriction or an override. These characters are often used as part of feature codes for other systems or for features provided by the central office (the public network). When restricting the dialing of a central office feature code, don’t forget to create separate restrictions for the codes used for DTMF and pulse lines. Examples of dialing strings that may be restricted for this reason are *67 and 1167. Do not string together a central office feature code and a dialing sequence that you want to restrict. Create a separate restriction for each. You can use COPY and the dial pad to copy restrictions and overrides from one filter to another. Any restriction or override can be used in any number of filters. Each time it is used, it counts as one entry. For example, if restriction 411 exists in filters 01, 02 and 03, it uses up three entries of the 400 entries available. Removing a restriction from a filter has no effect on the contents of other filters even if the restriction was copied to them.

You cannot delete a filter. Removing the restrictions programmed on a filter makes it an unrestricted filter but the filter itself is not removed.

Removing a restriction changes the identifying number of the restriction.
Removing a restriction also removes the overrides associated with it, and changes the identifying number of the restriction. For example, if you remove restriction 01, restrictions 01 to 08 are renumbered as 01 to 07.

Set restrns Set restrictions lets you assign a restriction filter to a telephone to prevent certain numbers from being dialed from that telephone, and prevent certain features from being used by a telephone.

As with set restrictions, you can apply a different line/set restriction for normal service and for each of six schedules. Use , CHANGE and the dial pad to enter the number of the filter to be assigned as the line/set restriction for each schedule. There are no default line/set restrictions.

Tips - A maximum of 255 line/set restrictions may be applied to lines at telephones.
If a line/set restriction is assigned to a line at a particular telephone, it overrides any line restrictions or set restrictions which might otherwise apply. If no line/set restrictions have been defined, the numbers are checked against the set restrictions and the line restrictions, if either of these have been defined. The numbers may be rejected by either restriction.

Telco features
Telco features can program the way the Norstar works with features and services that are based in the public network or other outside source. Norstar is designed to work with two of these kinds of services: Call Display and an external voice message service. When you are finished programming Telco features settings for one telephone, you can copy those settings to other telephones by using COPY at the T e l c o f e a t u r e s . . . display.

Copying Trunk and Line data
At the T r k / L i n e d a t a display COPY appears. This allows you to copy programming from one line to other lines.

Tips - In copying data from a physical trunk to a target line
(or the other way around), only the data in common is copied. For example, copying a target line to an E&M trunk copies only the Line data settings because there are no Trunk data settings for a target line. If you try to copy line programming between lines on different types of Trunk Cartridges, the display shows I n c o m p a t i b l e C d , then returns to S h o w l i n e : _ . You cannot copy programming between lines on different types of Trunk Cartridges. The Received number of a target line is a unique number and cannot be copied.
Installer password required Trunk type The Line setting shows Loop, DID, PRI, BRI-ST, BRI-U4, BRI-U2, E&M, Ground or Fixed.

Tips - You can only change this setting for lines connected to a DTI. For all other lines (analog lines and BRI lines), the trunk type is determined by the Trunk Cartridge type. The system simply displays the trunk type; you cannot change it. To change the Trunk Cartridge or BRI Card, see Hardware on page 340.
Fixed lines can only be used by the IDM 200. Entering the software keys allows you to change the Trunk type option for T1 lines to Fixed. To enable the IDM 200 to interact with the ICS, you must enter Software keys. See Software keys on page 337 or the Bandwidth Allocation License sheet.

Enable Trunk Cartridges
If you disable any Trunk Cartridges to perform programming, enable them now using M o d u l e s t a t u s in Maintenance or your system will not function properly. See Module status on page 378 for information on enabling Trunk Cartridges in Module status.

Line type Installer password required This setting specifies how the line is to be used in relation to other lines in the system. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Public, Private to:, or Pool (A to O, representing 15 line pools) or PRI-A or PRI-B. • • A Public line can be accessed by more than one telephone. A Private line can be assigned only to one telephone and the prime telephone for that line. Use CHANGE and the dial pad to enter the internal number of the telephone. Pool assigns the line to one of the fifteen line pools. If a line is assigned to a line pool, but is not assigned to any telephone, that line is available only for outgoing calls.



Tips - Line pools must never contain a mixture of loop start
lines and E&M lines. All E&M lines in a given line pool should go to the same location. Try to avoid putting unsupervised loopstart lines in a line pool. These lines can become hung, especially when a remote user uses the line pool to make an external call.

There are two more programming settings that must be assigned before a line pool can be used: • You must assign line pool access to telephones in L i n e a c c e s s programming.

You must assign system-wide line pool access codes in S y s t e m p r g r m i n g.

Tips - A telephone can be administered to search automatically for an idle line from several lines appearing on the telephone. Assign a line pool as the prime line (in L i n e a c c e s s ) and all the lines in the line pool must appear on that telephone. When the user lifts the receiver or presses © , any one of the lines, if idle, can be selected by Automatic Outgoing Line selection.

Tips - You can only change this setting for lines connected
to a DTI. For all other lines, the trunk type is determined by the Trunk Cartridge type. The system simply displays the trunk type; you cannot change it. To change the Trunk Cartridge or BRI Card, see Hardware on page 340. E&M Trunk Cartridges have two E&M lines and two DTMF receivers (instead of four lines as in a Loop Start Trunk Cartridge). For example, if an E&M Trunk Cartridge has the range of line numbers 049 to 052, numbers 049 and 050 are E&M lines, and numbers 051 and 052 are the DTMF receivers. The display for line 050 appears as L i n e 0 5 0 : E & M and for line 051 appears as L i n e 0 5 1 : D T M F.

Tips - Changing the settings for trunk type (that is, Loop
Start, E&M or DID) on a system that is in use, may cause calls to be dropped. When assigning lines to line pools, consider your network configuration. You may be able to create a unified dialing plan by assigning lines to the same location to the same line pool on each of your systems. For example, if system A and system B each have tie lines to system C, assign the tie lines to pool D on each of the systems. If you plan to program the prime line as I/C (intercom) for some telephones, you may wish to assign loop start lines to the first line pool. Remember that when the system searches for an outgoing line, it begins at line pool A and chooses the first available line. Assigning a single E&M trunk to a line pool allows features like Ring Again to help manage access to a shared resource. You cannot assign target lines (145-272) to a line pool.

Dial mode Installer password required Dial mode lets you specify whether dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) or pulse signalling is used on the trunk. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Pulse or Tone.

Tips - For DID and E&M lines connected to a DTI, the Tone setting does not appear if Signal is Immediate.

Installer password required Rec’d # The Received number setting applies only to target lines (line numbers 145 to 275 for a NA-MICS 4.0 system and 145 to 336 for an XC 4.0 system). It allows you to specify the digits which make a specific target line ring. The default value is None.

Use CHANGE, and the dial pad to program the digit string for each target line.

Tips - A Received number can be two to seven digits long (programmed in S y s t e m p r g m i n g ). The default length for a non-expanded system is 2. The default length for an expanded system is 3.
A received number cannot be the same as, or be the start digits of a line pool access code, a destination code, the DISA DN or the Auto DN. If you are configuring auto-answer BRI trunks to map to target lines, the received number should be the same as the Network DN supplied by your service provider. The call will be directed to the prime telephone for the incoming line if the Network DN is not used.

If busy When a call is received on a target line that is already busy, you can choose if the caller get a busy tone or if the call is forwarded to the prime set. Busy tone only works for PRI and

Prime set Installer password required This feature allows you to assign a telephone to provide backup answering for calls on the line. Unanswered calls are redirected to the prime telephone. Use CHANGE and the dial pad to enter the internal number of the prime telephone. The default prime set for each line is 221.

Tips - For auto-answer trunks, calls ring only at the prime
telephone for a trunk, and only when overflow call routing is active. Each line can be assigned only one prime telephone.

CLID set Installer password required A Norstar set displays the telephone number of the calling party. The Call Line Identifier (CLID) set prompt, lets you specify which sets are capable of using the feature. The default setting is None.
Installer password required Auto privacy This feature controls whether one Norstar user can select a line in use at another telephone to join an existing call. The default setting is Privacy on, so that nobody with a Norstar telephone can press a line appearance on their telephone to join a call in progress at another telephone. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (on) and N (off).

Tips - Users can change a line’s privacy setting for an
individual call using the Privacy feature (ƒ ° ‹ ).

Trunk mode Installer password required Trunk mode lets you specify one of two modes of operation for each line: disconnect supervision or unsupervised. Disconnect supervision, also referred to as loop supervision, releases an external line when an open switch interval (OSI) is detected during a call on that line. This prevents the line from remaining unavailable for other Norstar users. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Unspr or Super. • • Unspr (the default) turns disconnect supervision off for the line. Super assigns supervised mode, if supported by the line; otherwise, the line functions as unsupervised.

Tips - The duration of an open switch interval (OSI) before
Norstar disconnects a call is programmed by the Discon timer setting under H a r d w a r e . Disconnect supervision is required for loop start trunks to operate in auto-answer mode or with DISA. It is also required to conference with two external callers. The line must be equipped with disconnect supervision from the central office for the Super option to work.
Installer password required Ans mode The Answer mode setting appears on the display during programming for loop start and BRI lines if the Trunk mode setting is Super, for ground start lines, and for E&M lines. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Manual or Auto.

Tips - If loop start lines are set to Auto, you will require an E&M card for the DTMF receivers to function properly.
Remember that disconnect supervision is required if loop start trunks are to operate in auto-answer mode.

You should change the Answer with DISA setting to N, for E&M trunks in a private network operating in auto-answer mode. The default, Y (Yes), causes the system to expect a Class of Service password after it automatically answers a trunk.

Ans with DISA Installer password required When activated, the Answer with DISA setting specifies that a trunk is answered with stutter dial tone. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (Yes) or N (No).

Tips - For loop start and E&M lines this setting only
appears if Answer mode is Auto. Set Ans with DISA to No for E&M lines on an enhanced switched network (ESN) to operate properly in auto-answer mode.

To program DISA on PRI trunk, see Programming Direct Inward System Access (DISA) on PRI trunks on page 41.
Installer password required Link at CO (exchange) Some exchanges respond to a Link signal (ƒ ‡ ⁄ ) by providing an alternative line for making outgoing calls. When Link at CO is set to Y (Yes), the system applies the restrictions on outgoing calls to the digits dialed after the Link signal, and the call on the alternative line will be subject to all restrictions. Setting Link at CO to N (No) prevents a Link signal from resetting the Norstar restrictions in cases where the host exchange does not provide an alternative line.

Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (Yes) or N (No). For more information about host signalling options, refer to Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide.

Aux. ringer Installer password required This setting allows you to turn the auxiliary ringer on or off. An auxiliary ringer can be programmed on a line or a set. When programmed on a set, the auxiliary ringer will ring every time a call is received. When programmed on a line, the auxiliary ringer will not ring when a transferred call is received. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (Yes) or N (No).

Tips - The auxiliary ringer is an optional device that should be connected by the installer.
If you have an auxiliary ringer programmed to ring for calls on an external line, and you transfer a call on that line without announcing the transfer, the auxiliary ringer will ring for the call transfer. An auxiliary ringer can also be programmed in Services to ring for a line placed into a scheduled Ringing service. See the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide for more information.
Installer password required Full AutoHold Full AutoHold on idle line is a variation of the Automatic Hold feature. If you select an idle line, but do not dial any digits, that line is automatically placed on hold if you then select another line. Press CHANGE to select the setting: N (No) or Y (Yes).

Restrictions
Preventing a user from using a line for making certain kinds of calls is done in Restrictions. For example, users should not be able to make long-distance calls on lines used exclusively for local calling. Restrn filters A restriction filter is a set or group of restrictions and overrides that specify the external numbers or feature codes that cannot be dialed from a telephone or on a line. Rather than define individual restrictions and apply them repeatedly to telephones and to lines, restriction filters let you assign them in one step as a single package of dialing sequences that are not permitted. You can make changes to restriction filters under both T e r m i n a l s & S e t s , and L i n e s . Any changes will take effect for any telephone, line or line on a telephone regardless of where the programming was changed. See the description and procedures in Restrictions on page 234.

For example, you may want to combine alternate call ringing with alternate dialing restrictions for lunchtime, evenings, and weekends (Schedules 1, 2, and 3). Then you may want to run alternate call routing using three separate schedules.

Tips - Once you have programmed the different services and schedules, you can turn each of the services on separately. For example, the Night schedule might control both Ringing service and Restriction service. But you can turn on just the Ringing service part of the Night schedule if you wish.
You can activate the services from the designated control telephone for each Norstar telephone and line in your system. You can have one control telephone for the whole system, or different control telephones for different Norstar telephones and lines. If you want to have several services active at the same time, simply program them on for the same schedule.

Ringing service
At certain times or in certain situations, you may want additional telephones to begin ringing for incoming lines. The most common use of this feature is when a security desk

telephone begins to ring for incoming lines after 5:00 p.m., a practice often called “night service”. These features are programmed under R i n g i n g s e r v i c e . Ringing groups Ringing groups allows you to define groups of extended ringing sets. A group can be assigned to any line for any of the schedules. You can create up to 20 ringing groups composed of up to 30 sets for each ringing group. To define a ringing group use and enter the number of the group you want to program (01-20). Once you define a ringing group, the display will prompt you to enter the number of the set you want to assign to this ringing group. You can use SCAN to display the sets that are assigned to the ringing group.

Tips - You can assign any set on the Norstar system to a
ringing group. The assigned control set for each schedule is added to each ringing group. A set can belong to more than one ringing group.

Sched:Night Indicate how Ringing service should be activated for each of the schedules. Service and CHANGE to change the setting for each Use schedule: Off, Auto, or Manual. Manual allows you to turn the service on and off at any time from a control telephone using the Ringing service feature code.

Automatic allows you to program a stop and start time for a service. You are still able to start and stop the service by entering the appropriate Services feature code at a control telephone. If you select this setting, you will have to set start and stop times. See the section on schedule times for information on programming times. Off prevents the service from being activated. Trunk answer Trunk answer allows you to answer, from any telephone, an external call that is ringing at another telephone in your office. This is useful if the other telephones have not been assigned the same lines as the telephone you are using to answer the call. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (Yes) or N (No).

Tip - You can change the Trunk Answer setting only if
Ringing service is set to Manual or Automatic.

ExtraDial telephone ExtraDial telephone allows you to assign an additional direct-dial telephone in the Norstar system for each schedule you use. Use CHANGE and the dial pad to enter the internal number of the extra-dial telephone.

Tip - The extra-dial telephone is activated during a schedule
by entering the Ringing service feature code from a direct-dial telephone. This does not activate the Ringing service unless the direct-dial telephone is also a control telephone.

Line settings The ring groups and auxiliary ringer use for Ringing service is programmed for each line individually. Ringing group You can assign a predefined ringing group to a line for each schedule. See Ringing groups on page 264 to create groups of extra ringing telephones. Using the dial pad, enter the line number to see which ringing group is assigned to the line. Press CHANGE and the ringing group number (01-20) to choose a different ringing group assignment.

Tip - Only one ringing group can be assigned to a line for each schedule. To combine groups of ringing sets, you must create a new ringing group which contains all the sets you want to ring and assign it to the line.
Aux. ringer Indicate whether the auxiliary ringer (if installed) also rings when Ringing service is on. Press CHANGE to select the setting: Y (Yes) or N (No).

Tips - The default ringing telephone is 221. This means that
all lines ring at telephone 221 when Ringing service is on. You can use COPY and the dial pad to copy Ringing set and Auxiliary ringer programming from one line to another. If you have an auxiliary ringer programmed to ring for calls on an external line, and you transfer a call on that line without announcing the transfer, the auxiliary ringer will ring for the call transfer.

Routing service
The programming for routing decides what path an outgoing call takes using the digits that are dialed. It is sometimes called Automatic Route Selection (ARS). When you select an internal line and dial, the numbers you enter are checked against the routing tables. If the number you dialed starts with a destination code, the system uses the line pool and dials out digits specified by the route assigned to that destination code, and then dials the rest of the number that you dialed. Routing service replaces a number of tasks that otherwise have to be done manually, including: • • • entering a line pool code dialing an access code for a long distance carrier deciding which line pool to use according to the time and day

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

268 / Services

The installer can set up routing to take advantage of any leased or discounted routes using information supplied by the customer. The system itself cannot tell which lines are cheaper to use. For Call by Call service selection (PRI only), the installer defines destination codes for various call types over PRI lines (e.g. Foreign Exchange, Tie Trunk, and OUTWATS). This information is then recorded in the routing and dialing plan section of the Programming Record for the PRI Pool-A (and PRI Pool-B if there are two PRI cards). The user simply dials a number via the intercom button without having to enter any special information. For more information see, Call by Call service selection for PRI on page 329. Using routing to create a transparent dialing plan or coordinated dialing plan is explained in Transparent dialing plan on page 64.
Plan your routing service before doing any programming.
Routing affects every call placed in the system and must be carefully planned to avoid conflicts and gaps in the programming. Use the tables in the Programming Record to design routes and destination codes, then check for potential problems before you start programming. It will also save you time to have all the settings written out in front of you.

Setting digit absorption to 0 minimizes the effort involved in preparing destination codes. With a 0 setting, the actual digits dialed by a caller are preserved in the dialout sequence. Programming a DialOut sequence as part of the route may or may not be necessary depending on the required dialout.

Setting up a route for local calling
An office may have different suppliers for local and long distance telephone service. By programming a destination code, any call that begins with 9 (the most common dial out digit) will automatically use lines dedicated to local service. The first step is to build a route (under R o u t i n g S e r v i c e in S e r v i c e s ). • enter 001 (or any other available route number) at S h o w route:

Press SCAN to view defined routes and CLEAR to erase a defined route. • • assuming that the lines for local calling have been placed in Line pool A, choose it as the line pool enter the DialOut digits (if any) which are needed to direct the call once it is connected to an external line

The second step of programming is setting up how the route will work with a destination code. Because users will dial 9 to make an external call, 9 should be the destination code.

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

Setting up a route for long distance calling
An office may have leased lines or E&M trunks which make it cheaper to call long distance. The routing should take place automatically when the number of the outgoing call begins with 1.

The destination code can use a different route depending on the Schedule (see Services in the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide). In this example, the system uses Route 002 (which uses Line pool B) to take advantage of the lower cost when the system is in normal mode. • . The route for the first schedule appears: Press N o r m a l : . Press CHANGE and enter the defined route number 002.

Tips - The digit absorption setting (A b s o r b L e n g t h ) only
applies to a maximum of two schedules. Setting A b s o r b L e n g t h to 0 minimizes the effort involved in preparing destination codes.With a 0 setting, the actual digits dialed by a caller are preserved in the dialout sequence. Programming a DialOut sequence as part of the route is not necessary. If rates change depending on the time of the day or week, a different route can be used for the same destination code 1 when a particular schedule is in use. See Programming for least cost routing on page 281.

Adding a long distance carrier access code
In many cases, long distance service uses the same lines as local service but is switched to a specific carrier using an access number (sometimes called an equal access code). Programming for routing can include the access number so users don’t have to dial it every time they make a long distance call. 1. Create a route that uses a line pool containing local lines only. 2. Program the route to use a line pool containing the lines used to access the long distance carriers.

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

3. Enter the DialOut digits, which are the same as the access digits. For example, if the access code was 10222, the DialOut digits would be10222. 4. Create a destination code 91: 9 (for outside access) and 1 (for long distance). A valid destination code must be used. See Dest codes on page 272. 5. Set A b s o r b L e n g t h to 1. The 9 is only used internally and should be dropped; the 1 is needed to direct the call to the public carrier network.

Tips - The destination codes 9 and 91 used in the examples
cannot be used together. If the destination code 91 is needed to direct long distance calls, you must create a separate set of codes that use local calling routes. These codes would be, for example, 90, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98 and 99. See Wild card character on page 274 for information on programming destination codes.

Programming for least cost routing
It may be cheaper to use another long distance carrier at another time of day. Continuing with the example used in the previous flowchart, the lines that supply local service in normal mode will also be used for long distance service after 6 p.m. because that is when rates become competitive.

Tips - A schedule must be active for overflow routing to be in effect. Overflow routing is not available in normal mode.
You must create an overflow route to be used with each destination code. In this way, every route used with a scheduled mode that has overflow service must have an alternate route in normal service.

Using dialing restrictions with routing
Routing service can be further customized by adding dialing filters to lines in line pools. Filters restrict the use of the line to specific area codes. See Networking features on page 61 and the Programming chapter of the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide for more information.

Tips - Host system signaling codes can be part of the
DialOut. See the Modular ICS 4.0 System Coordinator Guide for details on host system signaling codes. You can also use routing as an alternate method for a directdial number. For example, create a destination code 0 and program the number of the internal or external destination as the DialOut. Digit absorption should be set to 1. Because overflow routing directs calls using alternate line pools, a call may be affected by different line filters when it is handled by overflow routing.

Using a dialing plan to route outgoing PRI calls
The Dialing Plan supports PRI connectivity to public and private networks. The dialing plan is a collection of features responsible for processing and routing outgoing calls. All PRI calls must go through a dialing plan.

Tips - External lines and telephones must be programmed
with a control telephone to use the three kinds of Services. You can assign a control telephone to more than one external line or telephone, but a line or telephone cannot be assigned to more than one control telephone. One recommendation is to have one control telephone for all lines and a different control telephone for all telephones. A service can be turned on manually or automatically for all external lines and telephones controlled by a given control telephone, but you cannot combine schedules. In other words, a service can only be active as normal service or one of the six schedules at any one time. You can have several schedules active, as long as they are using different services. The default control telephone for all lines and telephones is 221.

Schedules names The schedule name is shown on the display of the control telephone when the schedule is turned on. It identifies the active schedule. , ‘ Use program the name. , and CHANGE and the dial pad to

Tips - The default names of the six possible schedules are
only suggestions and may be changed to any other name. A schedule name can be one to seven characters long. It is recommended that you reserve certain schedules (4, 5, and 6) exclusively for alternate call routing (Routing service).

Schedule times Schedule start and stop times are set at times you are most likely to want each service to be active.

Tips - It is only necessary to program start and stop times
for schedules that are activated automatically. See the instructions with Ringing service for information on activating schedules. The time may be entered in either 12 or 24-hour format. If the display is in English, and the hour entered is less than thirteen, the display prompts you to specify AM or PM. If you assign identical start and stop times for a schedule, for example, 04:00 start and 04:00 stop, the schedule is in effect all day. The only exception to this is a start and stop time of 00:00; in this case the schedule is off for the day. You may assign overlapping times. For example, if schedule 1 is assigned from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm and schedule 2 is assigned from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, then the start time of the second schedule is treated as a stop time for the first schedule.

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

290 / Services

This is also true if two schedules have the same start time but different stop times; the stop time of the shorter schedule is treated as the start time of the longer schedule. If one schedule starts and stops within the times of another schedule, the first service temporarily ends when the second service starts. The first service then resumes when the second service has ended. Some schedules start and stop at the same times each day: use COPY to copy the start and stop times from one day to the next.

Start and stop times don’t span days.
When you program a schedule to start in the evening and stop in the morning, it does not carry over into the next day. For example, if you program Night service for Friday (22:00 to 6:00), the system turns on Night service from midnight to 6 am on Friday, and then again from 10 pm to midnight on Friday.

292 / Passwords

Passwords
COS pswds
Class of Service (COS) passwords permit controlled access to a system's resources by both internal and remote users. When you enter a Class of Service password at a telephone, the restriction filters associated with your Class of Service password apply instead of the normal restriction filters. Similarly, when a remote user enters a Class of Service password on an incoming auto-answer line, the restriction filters and remote package associated with their Class of Service password apply instead of the normal restriction filters and remote package. COS passwords lets you define individual passwords and determine the restriction filters and remote package associated with each.

Tips - The Class of Service passwords for a system should
be determined randomly and should be changed on a regular basis. Users should memorize their COS passwords instead of writing them down. Employees' COS passwords should be deleted when they leave the company. Typically, each user has a separate password. Alternately, several users can share a password or one user can have several passwords. A system can have a maximum of 100 six-digit COS passwords (00 to 99). You can use COPY and the dial pad to copy the restriction filters and remote package from one COS password to another. COS passwords must be unique.

Hunt groups
The hunt groups feature allows a group of sets to be called by a single directory number ensuring that calls are easily routed to the appropriate group. The default setting for hunt groups is broadcast. Hunt group statistics are available with the Usage Metrics feature on page 425. Hunt groups can be used to route calls to a support service such as a Help Line for a software company. Specialists dealing with Product A can be in one group, and specialists dealing with Product B can be in another group. Incoming calls will hunt for the next available set in the group. If no set is available, the call can be placed in a queue or routed to an overflow set. The Hunt groups subheading in system programming is the area that programming changes are made to the following: • • • • • • members of a group member position in a group what lines are assigned to a group how incoming calls are distributed how long the system looks for available agents where a call goes if all agents are busy

Sets that are members of a hunt group can temporarily leave a group by activating the DND feature. Wireless twinning can be enabled if a hunt group appears on the portable as well as the set. Priority calls to a hunt group will be rejected Hunt group set numbers cannot be in a ringing group. Hunt group set numbers cannot be in a page zone.

Note: Videophones should not be programmed as members of a hunt group. Hunt groups allow one B channel connection at a time and videophones use two B channels. Adding or removing members from a group Members of the group can be any Norstar set, CTA 500dm, ISDN set, or portables. A set can be in more than one hunt group but is considered a member in each hunt group, increasing the total number of members in the system. There can be only one appearance of the same hunt group on a set. The appearance can be one of three types, Appr&Ring, Appr only or Ring only. The set number range for hunt groups is 707 to 736.

5. Press CHANGE to program the line as Unassigned or Assigned. * H G n n * means the line is assigned to another hunt group. Setting the distribution mode There are three modes of call distribution: • Broadcast—rings each set in the group simultaneously. Calls are handled one at a time, other calls are queued. As soon as a call is picked up, the call next in the queue is presented to the hunt group without having to wait for queue timeout. In Broadcast mode, a single incoming call will ring simultaneously at all the sets in a group. This way, all receptionists in the group can share the load of answering large volumes of calls. A familiar example is a fundraising campaign where a group of operators would be waiting to take each call as it comes in. • Sequential—starts the call at the first set in the hunt group and distribution is complete when the first free set has been found. Simultaneous calls can be presented. Distribution is order based. In Sequential mode, you can program your top salesperson to be the first member of the group to receive incoming calls. • Rotary—the call starts at the set after the one which was last presented and distribution is complete when the next free set has been found. Simultaneous calls can be presented. Distribution is order based. In Rotary mode, you can ensure that all your help-line people are receiving calls, rather than one person receiving the majority of calls.

This feature allows you to change the number of digits for all DNs. The maximum length is seven. The default and minimum length is 3. 1. Press CHANGE to select the setting: 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7. Press ‘ to save the new DN length. The display shows D r o p d a t a c a l l s ?. 2. Press YES to save the new DN length. NO restores the original value.
Do not change DN length immediately after a system startup.
You must wait for at least two minutes after a system startup before you change the DN length. Norstar data devices (not ISDN terminal equipment) drop calls when the DN length is changed. (These data devices use the B2 channel. The M7100, M7208, M7310, and M7324 telephones use the B1 channel. Calls are not dropped for these telephones.) Norstar data devices which use the B2 channel include the CTA devices used for PC applications and Norstar voice mail. The DN length change is completed within two minutes, depending on the size of the installed Norstar system. System response may briefly slow down during this time. You cannot re-enter programming during this time. If you enter the programming access code, the message I n u s e : S Y S T E M appears on the display.

Tips - A DN length change, if required, should be the first programming change on a newly installed Norstar system.
Each increase in length places the digit 2 in front of any existing DN. For example, if DN 234 was increased to a length of 4, the new DN would be 2234. If the DN length is changed so that a conflict is created with the Park prefix, external line access code, direct-dial digit, or any line pool access code, the setting for the prefix or code is changed to None, and the corresponding feature is disabled.

I/F levels Installer password required Interface levels defaults to the ISDN loss plan setting. Press CHANGE to select setting: ISDN, PSTN or ISD/TT interface levels.

Tips - Find out if your Norstar system is connected to a central office (CO) with digital network loss treatment (ISDN I/ F levels) or analog network loss treatment (PSTN I/F levels) by checking with your telecommunications service provider.
The ISDN setting requires digital access lines (DAL) that have digital network loss treatment. On a DAL network, it is the PBX that administers the dB loss. DALs may have ISDN signalling or digital (such as T1 and so on) signalling. To have DAL network loss treatment on a line with digital signalling, you must contact your service provider. The PSTN setting requires analog access lines (AAL) that have analog network loss treatment and digital signalling. On an AAL network, the CO administers the dB loss. The ISD/TT setting is only for T1 and PRI interfaces (MCI services only). ISD/TT provides a loss level that is similar to DAL except for certain analog connections where the DB level increases by 3. Each loss plan uses a transmit objective loudness rating of -46 dB. The ISDN and ISD/TT loss plan uses a receive objective loudness rating (ROLR) of 51dB and the PSTN loss plan uses a ROLR of 48 dB. Choosing the wrong setting may affect voice quality, either too loud or too soft.

Hardware / 359

network clock from the device/or switch above it in the synchronization hierarchy and passes the network clock to the device/switch below it in the synchronization hierarchy. The synchronization levels are referred to as strata. Norstar systems are stratum 4E equipment and are usually used as termination points in a network. For each DTI, choose one of the following settings: Primary reference The DTI obtains the timing reference from the network, which the system synchronizes to. This is the default value for the DTI in slot 1 in the ICS. If the system is configured with a DTI card (configured as PRI), the setting should be set to Primary. Secondary reference (S e c n d r y ) The DTI acts as a standby reference. If there are excessive errors on the primary reference T1 link, or the DTI designated as primary reference fails, this DTI will obtain the timing reference from the network, which the system synchronizes to. This is the default value for the DTI in slot 2 in the ICS. Timing master (T i m e M s t ) The DTI does not obtain timing from the network, but transmits the systems timing to equipment connected to it.

Tips - If a BRI card becomes clock source, it will have up to four clock sources available (T, S, U-NT, NT loops only). Only when all four clock sources have an alarm will the card cause a switch to the secondary or hold-over state.
BRI -T, S, and U-NT interface loops may be autonomously powered down by the network. This will be treated as a loss of clock source on that loop.

P0881590 Issue 02

Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

The installer should ensure that clock source loops are either not powered down or are among the last to be powered down. If BRI cards are used only for S-loops, a Service Card is required only if the DTI is T1. However, a Services Card is recommended when a T1 is not used, since the card improves clock accuracy and performance. If BRI cards are used off-core, they still require a connection to the network, which requires the SC, and an on-core digital clock source. For more information on network synchronization, consult the appropriate private digital network synchronization standards.

The following illustrations show some typical network configuration and the appropriate clock source settings for your DTIs.

Tips - In most T1 network configurations, you need one DTI
or DTI card configured as PRI in your ICS to act as a primary reference. The only application where you might not have a DTI or a DTI card configured as PRI designated as primary reference is in a network where your Norstar system is connected back-to-back with another switch using a T1 link. If the other switch is loop-timed to your Norstar system, your DTI or DTI card configured as PRI can be designated as a timing master. If your Norstar system has two DTIs, you cannot assign both DTIs as primary reference or both DTIs as secondary reference. You can only have one primary reference and one secondary reference per system. See “T1 or ISDN-PRI configurations” for more information.

T1 or ISDN-PRI configurations The following tables indicate proper and improper T1 or ISDN-PRI configurations:

Event messages / 397

Event messages
Event messages appear as items in the System administration log or the System test log of the Maintenance session. Most of these event messages can only be caused by an unusual combination of events, and should rarely occur. Each event is assigned a severity number. An “S” preceding this number, “S4” for example, may appear in the event message. “S9” is the most severe. If the log is full, new event messages with a higher severity number replace existing event messages of a lower severity. For this reason, you should check event messages at regular intervals. You can then deal with all messages before they are replaced. Event message information that is specific to Companion components is included in the MICS-XC Norstar-Companion Installer Guide. Dealing with event messages For every event message that you see: 1. Record the event on the appropriate Maintenance record. 2. Refer to Significant event messages. 3. To see if the event caused the Norstar system to automatically restart, consult the table on Event Message on page 403.

Provisioning / 405

Provisioning
BRI and T1 lines
Provisioning applies to BRI and T1 loops and lines. It allows you to place loops and lines in or out of service, either before or after the BRI Cards have been installed in the ICS. When you provision a loop, ISDN terminals on the loop can be used to make outgoing calls or receive incoming calls (S or ULT loop), or lines are available for use by the devices attached to the system (T, S, or U-NT loop). When you are configuring a T, S, or NT loop, you must also provision each line on the loop to place the lines in service.

Tests / 407

Tests
Norstar allows you to run tests which verify the integrity of the installation wiring for Norstar sets. In addition, you can evaluate the transmission quality of a BRI loop through your service provider using a loopback test and evaluate different aspects and segments of the T1 digital transmission path. You can only run one loopback test at a time on any one DTI.
Choose an appropriate time to run tests.
Do not run the loopback tests while ports are being disabled or during the first two minutes after Startup programming. If you do, the tests may stop running with ports still disabled. To recover from this, unplug the ICS from the power outlet, then plug it in again. The loopback tests disrupt service. Do not run tests when many people are using the Norstar system.
Installer password required BERT set test The bit error rate test (BERT) for Norstar sets may help to detect problems caused by wiring faults such as opens, shorts, bridge taps, split twist, crosstalk, ohmic connections, and imbalance.

You can run the BERT set test to check the quality of the path for voice or data. You can also run a test continuously until an error occurs or you stop the test, if you need more information about errors or the problem is sporadic. The test can only be run on one telephone at a time. You cannot run a BERT on the telephone that you are using for the Maintenance session. Make sure there is a Norstar telephone connected for the DN you wish to test.

Line loopback
Norstar ICS

T1 network

The line loopback test loops the full 1.544 Mbps signal received from the network back to the network. The looped signal is regenerated without any change in the framing format and without the removal of any bipolar violations. The line loopback test can also be invoked and stopped remotely using the in-band signal or via the facility data link (FDL) in extended super frame (ESF) format. The line loopback test must be run in coordination with the T1 or PRI service provider. Some test patterns can cause the DTI to reset. To avoid this, start the line loopback test from your system before the T1 or PRI service provider begins their test, and stop the line loopback test from your system after the T1 or PRI service provider ends their test.

CSU stats / 418

CSU stats
Each DTI is equipped with an internal channel service unit (CSU). When enabled, the internal CSU monitors the quality of the received T1 signal and provides performance statistics and diagnostic information. DTIs must be individually programmed to establish parameters for collecting and measuring transmission performance statistics by the CSU.
Installer password required Statistics The CSU provides both performance and alarm statistics. Three performance parameters are accumulated:

• • •

errored seconds (ES-P) severely errored seconds (SES-P) unavailable seconds (UAS-P)

These parameters are defined as per TIA-547A. Errored seconds are enhanced to include control slip (CS) events. The parameters are stored for the previous 15 minute interval, the 15 minute intervals in the last 24 hours, and the previous 24 hour interval. Only near-end performance data is recorded. The internal CSU continuously monitors the received signal and detects four types of transmission defects: • any active carrier failure alarms (CFA) (loss of signal LOS, out of frame OOF, alarm indication signal AIS, remote alarm indication RAI) the number of bipolar violations that occurred in the last minute



P0881590 Issue 02

• •

any defects (loss of signal LOS, out of frame OOF, alarm indication signal AIS) that occurred in the last minute the number of milliseconds of short term alarms (loss of signal LOS, out of frame OOF, alarm indication signal AIS, remote alarm indication RAI) in the last minute. A short term alarm is declared when the detected defects persist for tens of milliseconds.

A carrier failure alarm (CFA) is a duration of carrier system outage. CFA types reported can be mapped to CFAs defined in TIA-547A and TR62411 as follows:
Norstar LOS CFA OOF CFA AIS CFA RAI CFA TIA-547A Red CFA Red CFA Red CFA Yellow CFA TR62411 Red CFA Red CFA AIS CFA Yellow CFA

The criteria for declaring and clearing the alarms is selectable to meet those in TIA-547A or TR64211.

Troubleshooting
These troubleshooting procedures allow you to solve many problems in the Norstar system. Follow these procedures before replacing any components.
Only qualified persons should service the system.
The installation and service of this unit is to be performed only by service personnel having appropriate training and experience necessary to be aware of hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task and of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons. Electrical shock hazards from the telecommunication network and AC mains are possible with this equipment. To minimize risk to service personnel and users, the ICS must be connected to an outlet with a third-wire ground. In addition, all unused slots should have filler faceplates installed and the doors should be in place at the completion of any servicing. Service personnel must be alert to the possibility of high leakage currents becoming available on metal system surfaces during power line fault events near network lines. A risk point on the ICS is the power cord earth ground pin. These leakage currents normally safely flow to Protective Earth ground via the power cord. Therefore, it is mandatory that connection to an grounded outlet is performed first and removed last when cabling to the unit. Specifically, operations requiring the unit to be powered down must have the network connections (central office lines) removed first.

Where more than one procedure is given, the procedures represent different options from which you should select just one.
P0881590 Issue 02 Modular ICS 4.0 Installer Guide

430 / Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting procedures for Companion components are included in the MICS-XC Norstar-Companion Installer Guide.

Getting ready
Before you begin troubleshooting, gather all the information that is relevant to your network configuration: • • • the MICS Programming Record records from people who use the network information about other hardware and non-Norstar features within the public or private network
Notify service provider of T1 or PRI signaling disruption.
Notify your T1 or PRI service provider before disconnecting your T1 or PRI lines, removing power to your system, or performing any other action that disrupts your T1 or PRI signaling. Failure to notify your T1 or PRI service provider may result in a loss of T1or PRI service.

Tips - Remember that you can check many of the system
parameters without having to go into a programming session. Use Line Profile (ƒ • • Ò È ˆ ‰ ) from an M7310 or M7324 telephone, to check programming for any line. Use Set Profile (ƒ • • Í ‰ Ê ) from an M7310 or M7324 telephone, to check programming for any telephone. Use Button Inquiry (ƒ a particular telephone. • ‚ ) to check the buttons on

Replacing Norstar telephones of the same type If an existing Norstar telephone is unplugged, and a new Norstar telephone of the same type is then plugged into the same jack (for example, replacing an M7208 telephone with another M7208 telephone), the new telephone acquires the programming and the internal number of the old telephone. This is normally done to replace a defective telephone. Replacing Norstar telephones of different types If an existing Norstar telephone is unplugged, and a new Norstar telephone of a different type is plugged into the same jack (for example, replacing an M7208 telephone with an M7310 telephone), the new telephone keeps the old internal number. The new telephone receives a default profile for a telephone of its type. Refer to the System Coordinator Guide. If the telephone being replaced has more lines than the new telephone, automatic outgoing line selection may not work with the Handsfree/Mute feature. A line must be selected manually. Status of a telephone that was replaced The old Norstar telephone that was unplugged and replaced by a new Norstar telephone loses its programming and internal number. The old telephone's internal number has been given to the new telephone and the programming has either been removed or given to the new telephone when it was plugged into the old jack. The replaced telephone (if still functional) is now treated by the system as a telephone not previously in service.
