• Setup
• Running the Demo

Basic operations performed by the PBX Integration board include:

• answer
• dial
• supervised/blind transfer
• play/record messages

D/42 Demo Requirements

• Two phones connected to a PBX
• One PBX Integration board connected to a PBX
• The PBX must be configured according to the PBX Integration User's Guide.

Setup

Before running the demonstration program, perform the following procedures:

1. Connect 1 channel of your board to an extension of the PBX.

2. Connect two telephones to two extensions of the PBX.

3. If necessary, start the board using the Dialogic Configuration Manager.

Running the Demo

To run the Demonstration Program:

1. Go to the c:\program files\dialogic\samples\d42 directory or use the Start Menu on Windows.

2. Start the D/42 Series Demonstration Program by double-clicking on d42demo.exe or by making appropriate selection from the Start Menu.

3. The Dialogic D/42 Demo window opens, as seen in Figure 18.

Figure 18. Dialogic D42 Demo Window

4. From the Options menu, choose Properties. The D42 Options window is displayed, as shown in Figure 19.

Figure 19. D42 Options Window

5. Enter the number of extension digits that corresponds to your PBX configuration.

NOTE:

If this option is not set correctly, the demo program will not perform transfers correctly.

1. If you want to use supervised transfers, check the Supervised Transfers box.

NOTE:

In a supervised transfer, the demo program puts the incoming call (Phone A) on hold and attempts to establish a connection with the Phone B before the transfer is completed.

In a non-supervised, or blind transfer, the incoming call (Phone A) is transferred immediately to Phone B. You will hear the ring signal, and the D/42-xx channel is ready to accept a new call (indicators are gray).

7. From the Options Menu choose Input Strings. The Input Strings Window will be displayed as shown in Figure 20.

Figure 20. Input Strings

8. Enter the strings for Dial, Cancel, and Complete fields for the PBX that is currently being used.
9. Press OK to save and close the Input Strings Window.

1. Please use the $ (dollar) sign in place of ESC key while entering strings.

2. Certain default strings have been supplied for backwards compatibility. You must verify their correctness for the PBX that is being currently used with the demo. The $ (dollar) sign in the default strings indicates the ESC key

NOTE:

If you skip setting up the Input Strings, you are prompted to enter them again at the time of opening the channels, as shown in Figure 21.

10. Press OK to close the D42 Options window.
11. From the File menu, choose Open. The Select Your D42 Channel window displays, as shown in Figure 22.

12. Choose a board listed below the applicable PBX Integration board (Example: dxxxB1 under the Northern Telecom Norstar). A channel list is displayed in the right-hand window, as seen in Figure 23.

13. Choose a channel connected to the PBX and press OK
    (Example: dxxxB1C1). A window is displayed that simulates the appropriate phone set for your PBX.

    NOTE:

    All four channels are displayed, not just the channel connected to the PBX.

14. Observe that the date and time appear in the display. This verifies that the board is communicating with the PBX. If the date and time do not appear, verify that the correct channel is selected and that the phone line is connected to the proper channel on the board.
6. From Phone A, dial the number of the extension connected to the board channel selected in step 10.
7. Listen to the greeting.
8. Enter the extension for Phone B.

   NOTE:

   If you do not enter an extension within five seconds, the demo plays the message, "Thank you for calling Dialogic Corporation" and hangs up.

1. When Phone B rings, answer the call.

   NOTE:

   If the demo is performing a supervised transfer, the transfer completes immediately after voice is detected on the "transfer to" extension, or after 30 seconds of silence.

If performing a blind transfer, the transfer is completed immediately.

19. Observe the indicators, display, caller ID, and status areas in the demo window.
    • Indicators - refer to Table 13
    • Display - shows information sent from the PBX
    • Caller ID - shows the caller ID data sent by the PBX
    • Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) - turns on when a message is recorded.
    • Status Area - shows demo application status messages (e.g., dialing, ready, playing intro prompt, and message access code)

Table 13. Demo Indicator Definitions

20. You may repeat steps 12 through 15 using different scenarios for the Phone B (e.g., busy, no answer, forward).

    NOTE:

    If you choose busy or no answer, you are prompted to leave a message. Recording stops when silence is detected. When you leave a message, the MWI turns on. Only one message is saved (any previously recorded message is overwritten). The saved message is deleted when the channel is closed.

To listen to the message, call back the extension and press the # key. The access number is displayed in the status area.

21. To close the open channel, choose Close from the File menu.
6. To exit the program, choose Exit from the File menu.
7. You may also run the Multithreaded GUI Based Application Program to check the voice functions of the board. Refer to the System Release Software Installation and Configuration Reference.
