VDT Programming Instructions IMIhS-111

Understanding General

Programming Information

It is best that you program the DXP digital communications system from a video display terminal

(VDT) that supports the ANSI standard escape sequences for cursor and video control. The VDT must be a serial-data, RS-232 type, asynchronous device. The DXP system supports ANSI standard, ANSI color, and WYSE 50 terminals with full screen editing of database information. Other types of terminals use a line-by-line editing approach instead of a full screen editing approach and make programming harder to do.

You can employ a personal computer (PC) if it will run a communications software program that allows it to emulate a data terminal device (DTE equipment). Many communications software programs are

available for this purpose. One such program that works effectively is known as PROCOMM produced by Datastorm Technologies; however, you can use any that match the following data communications parameters:

0 full duplex,

0 XMODEM communication protocol (8 bit data required). Regardless of the type of programming terminal that you employ, connect it to the common equipment

data port per the discussion found in IMI66-085, Installation Instructions For The DXP Digital

Communications System Main Cabinet Assembly.

You can program the DXP digital communications system remotely using the following equipment:

0 a VDT or a PC and appropriate software program,

a pair of data modems (one for your terminal and one for the remote site).

Refer to GCA40-07.5, Feature Applications For The DXP Digital Communications System, for complete

remote programming details.

It is possible for you to mismatch the data configurations of your programming terminal (VDT) with

those of the DXP and prevent data communications from occurring. You can reconfigure your VDT

until you match the data parameters of the DXP; however, the DXCPU-68K board provides a DIP

switch that changes the DXP data configuration to a fixed set of parameters. You can match your VDT

to this fixed set of parameters and eliminate any configuration guess work. When you set DIP switch 1

to its ON position, you fix the DXP serial data ports to the following parameters: Parameter

Baud Rate In 9600 Baud Rate Out Data Bits Stop Bits Parity Bits

Flow control None

Data Port A

9600 300 8

None

Data Port B

300

None

When you set the DIP switch to OFF, you can program the DXP data port configuration parameters using the procedure detailed in Section 6.5, Serial Ports.

Reviewing General

Programming Considerations

Since the programming procedure is menu driven, you should consider all of the following points.

0 The menu presents a list of selections for your consideration. Each selection differs in content and

requires a different response.

0 When you respond to each selection, it either causes the system to present a further breakdown of

selections or causes a particular programming action to take place.

0 Menu lines prompt you for the required response and, where appropriate, will repeat prompts to

allow programming of more than one device without you having to make another menu selection.

0 All of the menus operate in a similar manner. They differ in only the required response that you

must make.

Some menus contain more than one page. On these menus, you can press and hold the CONTROL

key while you type the N key to display the next page (or type P to display the previous page).

@ Each prompt requires a response followed by a Carriage Return (RETURN). A more common label

for this control on most PC keyboards is ENTER.

Most menu responses usually consists of a one-, two-, or three-digit number or a string of numbers (or alpha-numeric characters when programming names and messages). Successive entries are separated by a space or a comma (n n n or n,nn,nnn) while blocks of numbers are indicated by hyphen (n-nnn).

Should programmers introduce a numbering conflict while renumbering a feature dialing code, the

system will prompt them to remove the conflict. They may have to renumber several features to

completely clear any conflicting numbers.

Understanding Keyboard And

3.1

The following list describes the functional keys on the keyboard.

Number keys: Use keys O-9 for selecting menu items, lines of data to edit, or

Alphabetic keys:

ESCAPE key:

o Punctuation and Symbol keys:

RETURN or ENTER key:

Reviewing The Keyboard Definitions

for editing numeric prompts. Use keys A-Z and a-z for entering string information such as

names and messages. Always begin names of stations, lines, and

so forth with a letter or a space.

Either of these keys will return you to the previous command prompt and cancel whatever input was in progress. This action may or may not cause the previous screen to be redrawn depending on the current mode. When you enter a change at most of the programming menus, you must press the ESCAPE key and type a y followed by the ENTER key to save the change.

Except for comma (which is a field delimiter), use the punctuation and symbols on the keyboard just as you use the

alphabetic keys. Use this key to terminate the response to a command prompt or

to end the editing of a data field. The system ignores a RETURN without any preceding input except when you are editing database information. During this operation, the RETURN key moves the cursor to the next vertical editing position.

SPACE BAR:

Tab Key:

@ Question mark (?):

The space bar steps through the choices for program selections that provide multiple choices.

Use this key during table editing to position the cursor to the next horizontal editing position.

This key will display any help available concerning the currently displayed screen.

Keyboard and Terminal Definitions 3-l

IMl66-111 VDT Programming Instructions

3.2 Reviewing The Control Key Definitions

The following list describes the control key functions. Unless otherwise noted, control keys are valid input at any time during programming.

0 Control C (C for Cancel):

Control E (E for Edit or Erase):

0 Control I (I for Increment):

Control N (N for Next):

0 Control P (P for Previous):

Control R (R for Redraw):

0 Control X (X for exit):

This key will cancel the current mode or function and return you to the last command prompt.

Use this key to edit a selected field or entry. On “smart” terminals, most fields will be automatically cleared when the

first character is entered. Some fields allow the you to add to the current entry. On these types of fields, Control E will clear the entry and position the cursor at the beginning of the field. You can also use this key to erase a field that has blanks for valid input such as an autodial number.

Use this key during table editing to position the cursor to the next horizontal editing position.

Use this key to switch to the next page of data for those database items that fill more that one screen. There will always be an on screen note when this key is valid.

This key is identical to the Control N key except that it displays the previous page of information.

When you press this key the system will redraw the current

screen display. Usually, you use this key when the terminal

display is configured in brief mode. Either of these keys will return you to the previous command

prompt and cancel whatever input was in progress. This action may or may not cause the previous screen to be redrawn

depending on the current mode. When you enter a change at

most of the programming menus, you must press the ESCAPE

key and type a y followed by the ENTER key to save the change.

0 Control S (S for Stop):

Control T (T for Top):

Use this key to stop printouts. Use this key to cancel whatever input was in progress and return

to the top level menu. The top level menu will always be redrawn.

0 Control V:

Use this key to turn the entry field prompting on or off.

Use this key to cause the system to send and receive data to a “dumb” terminal.

Use this key to cause the system to send and receive data to a Wyse 50 compatible terminal.

Reviewing The Command

Prompts and Error Reporting

4.1 Reviewina The Command Prompts

There are four different types of command prompts.

0 Menu Selection Prompt: Use this prompt to make a menu selection. The system requires a numeric

input and displays the valid range of numbers in the prompt that corresponds to the number of menu items displayed.

0 Edit Line Prompt: Use this prompt on database editing screens to get to the desired line number to

be edited. The system requires a numeric input and displays the valid range of numbers in the prompt that corresponds to the number of menu items displayed. Entering a RETURN (ENTER) at

this prompt will automatically select the first item.

Station, Line or Class Of Service Prompt: Use this prompt to get to the particular item or items that are to be edited. This prompt is waiting for numbers, a range of numbers, or names. You may specify a single item or multiple items separated by commas. Select a range of items by entering two numbers separated by a dash. The prompt shows the valid range of numbers but the system will accept names. The system accepts an item as a name if the first character is not a number. The system displays the database information of each item one at a time for viewing or editing. When you use the ESCAPE key to exit the database information screen, the system displays the next item in the list. When you use CONTROL C to exit the screen, all list processing stops and the prompt display returns. When you use CONTROL T to exit the screen, the system stops all list processing

and displays the top level menu.

Multiple Choice Question Prompt: This type of prompt asks a specific question concerning the

current screen or function and shows the valid responses. Enter these responses as a single character followed by a RETURN (ENTER).

4.2

Pressing unexpected keys (such as letters when only numbers are allowed) or entering an out-of-range

value at a prompt causes the keyboard alarm to sound. The system responds to other types of input errors by displaying an error message on the screen as soon as it detects the error. If the system detects a value-out-of-range error, and if the valid range is not currently shown in the display, the error message includes the valid range of values for reference.

There is one circumstance for which the system does not report an entry error and this is when you are listing items at a station, line or COS prompt. In this case, the system processes valid items in the list up to the first invalid item that it encounters. It does not report the encountered invalid item as an error.

Default Functional Programming

6.1.1 Master Clear

Description:

The master clear feature in an on-line procedure that returns the entire system to the default

operating parameters, clears all stored speed dial numbers, and clears any other custom

programming as well. Master clear is not part of the off-line PCMMI programming procedure.

The system takes 15 to 20 seconds to exercise a master clear command depending upon the system size. You can take one of three different master clear options.

With master clear mode 1 option, the system assumes a set of parameters that reflect a key

system arrangement. This means that multiline telephones, except stations 101 and 102, receive direct line appearances in their button maps but have no group intercoms assigned to their hunt

lists. Stations 101 and 102 have four group intercom numbers assigned to their hunt lists and are button mapped accordingly. With master clear mode 2 option, the system assumes a set of parameters that reflect a hybrid,

or PBX-like, system arrangement. This means that multiline telephones have no direct line

appearances in their button maps; however, they do have two unique group intercoms assigned

to their button maps and to their hunt lists. With master clear mode 3 option, the system assumes a set of parameters, that does not map any

station buttons, assigns no group intercom access or personal intercom numbers to the stations,

and disables both zone and all-call paging features.

Programming:

You can only exercise the master clear when you enter the programming session with

the installer password;

the same as the installer password thus giving master clear privileges to the

administrator as well. Refer to Section 6.12, Password Programming to customize the

passwords.

1. Press CONTROL T for main menu.

2. From main menu, select system and press ENTER.

3. From system menu, select defaults and press ENTER.

4. Select master clear and press ENTER.

5. Type y or n (yes or no) to confirm master clear; press ENTER.

and replace the memory card. If you do not master clear the system, it is possible the DXP will not perform properly with the new memory card. The DXCPU-68K board provides a method for the master clear to occur automatically at the initial power up after you have changed or upgraded the software card. When you perform an upgrade, you must execute the following

sequence of events exactly as they are stated here:

Programming: 1. Save the system data base. This step is critical. Refer to Section 6.4, Database Storage

for programming details.

2. Turn off the AC power to the DXP and replace the memory card on the DXCPU-68K board. Refer to IMI89-095 for mechanical details.

3. Set DIP switch 8 to its ON position. This step enables the DXP to perform the

master clear and is a required step; otherwise, the software upgrade will not occur.

4. Install the DXCPU-68K board and new software card in the DXP, and turn on the

AC power. The DXP automatically executes a master clear operation.

5. After system powers up, set DIP switch 8 to its OFF position, and restore the data base

using the Section 6.4 procedure.

NOTE: The system performs the automatic master clear once following the initial power up after you

Description: This feature will save a database externally from the DXP and restore it after you have turned

the DXP off and upgraded the operating system software. Also, you can use this feature anytime to back up the stored programming as a security measure. Employ a personal computer with an XMODEM communications program to store the database on a magnetic diskette and reload it from the diskette after software upgrades. The saved and reloaded database includes the following data: system information, station parameters, line parameters, toll restriction and

automatic route selection parameters, and system speed dial numbers but it does not include the SMDA/SMDR records. If you need these SMDABMDR records, you must make a printout of

them before you perform the database storage. This is necessary because this save/restore

feature does not record the stored records and they will be lost. Use the Section 13, Selecting

System Printouts,

software upgrade considerations.

NOTE: This programming procedure details steps that one follows when using the communications

software program known as PROCOMM (produced by Datastonn Technologies). If you are using a different communications software, your steps may be different.

During programming, the system stores feature data at several places in its database. To ensure that a database save procedure includes all of a feature’s stored data, the system saves the entire database whenever you perform the save/restore database programming procedure.

Description:

Software Upgrade

This feature will save a database internally within the memory of the DXP and restore that database after you have turned the DXP off and upgraded the operating system software. Saving the database in this manner eliminates the need for a personal computer with an XMODEM communications program to translate the database between software upgrades. The

saved and reloaded database includes all of the following data: system information, station

parameters, line parameters, toll restriction and automatic route selection parameters, and

system speed dial numbers but it does not include the SMDABMDR records. If you need these SMDABMDR records, you must make a printout of them before you can perform the database storage. This is necessary because this save/restore feature overwrites the current stored records and they will be lost. Use the Section 6.13,

For this procedure to work properly, the system must include the expanded memory card (DXRAM-EXP68K). If the system has the standard memory card (DXRAM-STD68K), you should use the procedures detailed in Sections 6.1.1, Master Clear, and 6.4.7, Save/Restore Database.

Programming: 1. Press CONTROL T for main menu.

2. From main menu, select system and press ENTER.

3. From system menu, select default and press ENTER.

4. From default menu, select onboard software upgrade and press ENTER.

5. Type y for yes or n for no to respond to prompt concerning SMDABMDR records.

6. After the system saves the database, turn off the AC power to the system, upgrade the operating software, and turn the AC power back on. The system will automatically reload the saved database into the upgraded operating software and log out of the programming mode.

NOTE: The system will take an additional two to three minutes to power up after it receives ACpower

because of the time requiredfor the database restore processing.

Serial Ports (Serial Data Port Parameters)

The DXP provides two main serial data ports on the CPU board. In addition, it provides four

auxiliary serial ports on each DXOPT-COM communications card that your installer adds to each DXAUX auxiliary circuit board. Since a DXAUX board accepts two DXOPT-COM cards and the system accepts two DXAUX boards, the DXP can provide a maximum of 16 auxiliary serial data ports. Coupled with the two main serial data ports, the system provides a total of 18 serial data ports. Every serial data port provides an RS-232 interface that you can use for such things as VDT and data printer connection. The system recognizes the serial data ports by unique number identifiers. The main serial data ports are 1 and 2, and the serial data ports on the first DXAUX board are 3-6 (upper slot) and 7-10 (lower slot). The serial data ports on the second DXAUX board are 11-14 (upper slot) and 15-18 (lower slot). The port numbering of the auxiliary serial data ports are fixed. This means that if the system provides only one DXOPT-COM located in the lower slot on the first DXAUX board, the auxiliary serial data ports are 7-10. Use this procedure to set the data communications parameters of the serial data ports. The serial data parameters that you set using this procedure remain in effect until you reprogram them. The settings will not change even if you perform a master clear of the system unless you use the

switched master clear method detailed in Section 6.1, Central Processor Unit Switched Muster Clear. With that procedure, the system also defaults its serial data ports.
