FEATURE DESCRIPTION
The features of the Starplus 96EX Hybrid Key Telephone System are listed and described below in
alphabetical order. An abbreviated feature index is
provided in Table 200-l.
SYSTEM AND STATION FEATURES
200.1 ACCOUNT CODES
An account code is the last field within Station Mes-
sage Detail Recording (SMDR), that provides the
ability to track specific calls by entering a non-verifred, variable length (up to 12 digits) identifier. The
use of forced Account Codes is optional, offered on
a system wide basis.
200.2 AMPLIFIED CENTRAL OFFICE
BOARD
The Amplified Central Office Board (COA) is an
optional card that is installed in place of the standard
COB. It enhances audio levels and is recommended
for DISA and multi-line conference applications.
200.3
When a line has been left on hold for a programmable period of time, the station placing that line on hold
will be recalled. If that station fails to answer the
recall, the call will be recalled to the attendant(s) for
handling. There can be three attendants per sys-
tem-Transferred, Parked and Camp-on recalls will
also recall the Attendant.
200.4 AUTOMATIC LINE ACCESS
Each station, key or SLT, may have their phone
programmed to access a particular CO Line such as
a private line or a line from a Group of CO lines upon
going off-hook. This is useful in Centrex or PBX
applications when station users have dedicated or
individual lines. Outside line dial tone is received
just by going off-hook, without the need to dial an
access code.
200.5 AUTOMATIC NIGHT SERVICE
The system may optionally be programmed to go
into and out-of night service automatically. This
method does not require the attendant to activate or
deactivate night service on a daily basis. The automatic night service is enabled and disabled on a
programmable daily schedule including Saturday
and Sunday schedules. A time can be set to enable
Night Service and to Disable Night Service on a per
day basis.
AlTENDANT RECALL
200.6 AUTOMATIC PAUSE INSERTION
WITH SPEED DIAL
If a flash command is placed into system speed dial
numbers, station speed dial numbers, save number
redial or last number redial, a pause will automatically be inserted after the flash. A pause will also be
automatically inserted after a PBX dialing code has
been used.
200.7 AUTOMATIC PRIVACY
Priiacy is automatically provided on all calls. If one
station is conversing, another station cannot intrude
on that line. The Automatic Privacy feature can be
disabled, allowing another station to join in on exist-
ing CO line conversations.
200.8 AUTOMATIC SELECTION

speed dial button, or dial a feature and automatically
place the phone in the dialing mode without pressing
the ON/OFF button or lifting the handset.
200.9 BACKGROUND MUSIC
Each key telephone user may receive music over
their speaker when an optional music source is
connected to the system. This feature can be allowed or denied on a system-wide basis by programming.
200.10
The Starplus Basic Electronic Telephone will operate on the Starplus 96EX Hybrid Key Telephone
System. The Starplus Basic keyset is a fully modular
instrument with 8 fiied feature/function buttons and
6 buttons that can be flexibly assigned as
CO/PBX/Centrex lines, Station DSS, or feature/function buttons. This telephone features onhook dialing and Call Announce, lnterwm, two (2)
Volume Controls, a Personal Directory, and a 12 key

ing both system and station speed dial during a
power outage.
200.12 BA-ITERY BACK-UP (SYSTEM)
When the optional Battery Charging Card and maintenance free (gel-type) batteries are install&, full
system power can be maintained in the event of
commercial power outage. Calls in progress when
power fails will continue without interruption. The
batteries are recharged when the system returns to
normal AC operation.
200.13 BUSY LAMP FIELD (BLF)
When a button on a Key Telephone is assigned as
a DSS it also serves as a Busy Lamp Field to display
the status of that telephone.
200.14 CALL ANNOUNCE - PRIVACY
Each telephone user can set their intercom signaling
switch to receive intercom call announcements without having the calling pany hear any conversations
in progress.
200.15 CALL BACK
A station can initiate a call back request to another
busy station. As soon as that station becomes idle,
the station that left the call back request is signaled.
200.16 CALL FORWARD: STATION
A.
Call Forward - All Calls
This feature allows a station the ability to have
all their calls (internal or external) forwarded
immediately to a designated station, a UCD
group pilot number, Voice Mail group number,
or Hunt group. (See Note)
B.
Call Forward - Busy
This feature allows a station the abil.ky to have
their calls forwarded to a designated station, a
UCD group pilot number, Voice Mail group
number, or Hunt group when their station is
busy. (See Note)
C.
Call Fomrard - No Answer
This feature allows a station the ability to have
their calls forwarded to a designated station, a
UCD group pilot number, Voice Mail group
number or Hunt group number when there is no
answer at the station. No answer calls forward
when the system-wide “no answer timer” ex-
pires. (See Note)
D.
Call Forward - Busy/No Answer
Allows a stations the ability to forward a combi-
nation busy/no answer calls to a designated
station, a UCD group pilot number, Voice Mail
group number, or Hunt group. No answer calls
forward when the system-wide “no answer
timer” expires. Initial CO ringing, transferred CO
ringing and intercom ringing call: can all be
forwarded. Calls that ring to an idle station will
be call forwarded after expiration of the No
Answer ring timer.(See Note)
E. Call Forward - Off-Net
Stations will be allowed to forward intercom and
transferred CO line calls to an off-net location.
This allows a station to reroute calls that would
normally be lost. Calls can be forwarded to
home or another off-net site. Initially ringing CO
calls cannot be forwarded with this feature (see
Incoming CO lines Off-Net Forward, fea-
ture).(See Note)
NOTE: initial Ringing incoming: calls will forward to
groups, (ie: UCD, Voice Mail, Hunt) if the station
forwarded is the only station assigned to ting on the
CO line.
200.17 CALL FORWARD: PRESET
This feature allows the system data base to be
configured so that incoming CO Lines, which are
programmed to ring at a particular station, can be
forwarded elsewhere in the system predetermined
by programming. This feature is active if the station
ringing is not answered in a specified time. This is
particularly useful in “overflow” applications where a
Voice Mail or Auto Attendant may be in use.
A station may have one designated preset forward
location defined in the data base.
Preset Call Fomard is chainable only to other pre-
determined preset forward stations specified in the
database up to a chain of 5 stations.
Chainable Preset Call Forwarding will force the incoming CO Line to ring at each station preassigned
in the database for the Preset Forward Ring Timer
specified in the database before forwarding.
Each station in the system may, independently, have
incoming CO calls preset forwarded to the following
destinations:
A. Preset Call Forward - Stations
Each Key Telephone user may have preset in
the database Initial Ringing Incoming to be
directed to another station in the system, if the
call goes unanswered for a predetermined
amount of time.
B. Preset Call Forward - Hunt Groups
CO Lines can be preset forwarded to ring into
a Hunt Group from-any station. A CO line will
not preset forward to a busy Hunt group, however each time the preset forward timer expires
(for a total of five attempts) the group will be
Issue 1, June 1991
200-7
Page 27
checked for an idle station. If a member of the
group is idle the call will then be presented to
that member.
C.
Preset Call Forward - UCD Groups
CO Lines can be preset forwarded to ring into
a UCD Group from any station. A CO line will
not preset forward to a busy UCD group, however each time the preset forward timer expires
(for a total of five attempts) the group will be
checked for an idle station. If a member of the
group is idle the call will then be presented to
that member.
D.
Preset Call Forward - VM Groups
CO Lines can be preset forwarded to ring into
a Voice Mail Group from any station. A CO line
will not preset forward to a busy Voice Mail
group, however each time the preset forward
timer expires (for a total of five attempts) the
group will be checked for an idle Voice Mail
port. If a VM port is idle the call will then be
presented to Voice Mail.
E.
Preset Call Forward - Off-Net
CO Lines can be preset forwarded to ring Off-
Net via speed dial from any station. After the
expiration of the preset forward timer, the system will select an idle CO line and dial the
off-net location, then connect the two CO lines.
200.18 CALUNG STATION TONE MODE OPTION
This feature will provide an easy means for a Calling
station to override a desired stations H (handsfree)
or P (call announce) intercom switch setting. A dial
code has been added that is dialed in front of the
extension number to force the tone ringing.
200.19 CALL PARK
An outside line can be placed into one of six parking
locations and can be retrieved by any station that
has a direct line appearance or an available loop
button. Parked calls have their own recall timer and
will recall the originating station and if still unanswered, the attendant(s).
200.20 CALL PICK-UP:
A. Group Pick-up
Stations can be placed in one or more of four
pick-up groups. Stations within a group can
pick up tone ringing intercom calls, recalling
outside line ringing, or transferred outside line
calls for another station in that group.
B. Directed Call Pick-up
A station can pick up an intercom call., transferred, incoming, or recalling outside line call to
a specific unattended station. The call must be
a tone ringing call.
200.21 CALL TRANSFER
An outside CO line can be transferred from one
keyset to another. By using the TRANS button,
screened (announced) or unscreened transfers can
be made. The line being transferred rings on the
keyset and provides Exclusive Hold flashing indication to the receiving party’s keyset. Any number of
attempts can be made to locate someone by calling
different keysets without losing the call. If a line is
transferred to a busy station, it will receive muted
ringing.
200.22 CAMP-ON
A station may alert a busy party that an outside line
is on hold and waiting for them by using the CAMPON button. To camp on a call, press the TRANS
button to transfer the call to the desired busy station,
then press the CAMP ON button. The busy party
will receive a muted ring over the keyset speaker,
and a visual flashing CAMP ON LED. By pressing
the CAMP ON button, the person called places his
existing outside call on hold and is connected to the
person placing the Camp On. He can then pick up
the call on the appropriate line. Calls cannot be
camped on when a station is in DND or in Conference.
200.23 CAMP-ON RECALL
When a station does not answer a Camp On, that
call will recall the person placing the Camp On, and
if unanswered by them, will recall the attendant(s).
200.24 CANNED TOLL RESTRICTION
The system provides an easy means of applying the
most common form of toll restriction where I+ and
0+ along with 976, 555, and 411 type of calls are
restricted with all local calls and i-800,91 1, l-91 1,
and l-61 1 type of calls are allowed. This canned toll
restriction is applied through the use of a single
pre-built Class-of-Service and can be assigned to
stations using range programming.
200.25 CENTREX COMPATIBILITY
The Starplus 96EX system provides features that
are Centrex compatible so that Centrex users can
utilize the 96EX to enhance their Centrex capabilities. The 96EX actually simplifies and provides
easier access to many Centrex features by offering
the following features;
Page 28
A. Flex Button Programming
flexible button programming allows Centrex
users to program complex Centrex dial codes
onto a key set button for easy one touch access
to Centrex features.
B. Off-hook Preference
Both Key stations and Single line telephones
may be programmed to have their personal
Centrex line accessed automatically just by lift-
ing the handset or pressing the ON/OFF button.
Internal features to the 96EX are still made
available to key stations by accessing intercom
before going off-hook.
C. Private tine appearance
The 96EX allows for private line assignment on
an unlimited bases. Each station may have
sole access to a particular outside line if desired
and may also be assigned to receive incoming
ringing on that line.
D. Programmable Flash Timer
CO line flash is a momentary opening on a CO
line used for signaling. When using the 96EX
in a Centrex environment the CO line flash is to
signal the intention to transfer a caller using,
Centrex transfer. The CO line flash timer is
programmable on a per CO line bases to facilitate a mixture of Centrex and CO lines within
the same system.
E. Programming *, #, and Hook-Flashes into
Speed Dial
Many Centrex codes utilize a hook-flash followed by in many cases the digit r] and or [#].
The Starplus 96EX allows these codes to be
programmed as a part of system or station
speed dial sequences.
200.26 CENTREX/PBX TRANSFER
When Centrex or PBX lines are connected to the
96EX system, users may, by using the flash button,
transfer callers to other Centrex or PBX extensions.
Additionally, the flash command may be included
within a Speed Bin and programmed onto a flex
button for one button transfer.
200.27 CHAlNlNG SPEED BINS
Speed dial bins may be chained together by simply
pressing one speed bin, then another and another
as required.
This is helpful for accessing Long Distant carriers or
banking services when Account Codes may be re-
quired.
200.28 CO LINE ACCESS
Through programming, telephones are allowed or
denied access to particular outside lines or line
groups.
200.29 CO LINE CLASS OF SERVICE
Each CO Line may be programmed with a Class-of-
Service to provide dialing privileges. The 96EX system uses a array between CO Line Class-of-Service
and Station Class-Of-Service to offer a wide variety
of dialing privilege possibilities. The CO Line Classof-Service is also checked when a DISA caller selects an outside CO line to determine the dialing
privilege for that call.
200.30 CO LINE CONTROL (CONTACT)
There are two control contacts (optional) which may
be individually programmed as either CO Line Con-
trol (to control ancilliary equipment) or Loud Beli
Control to control a customer provided ringing device
to external areas. When programmed as CO Line
Control and assigned to a CO line, the corresponding
wntact will close whenever that CO line is accessed
by a station. (One Pl7 is required to provide one
wntact.)
200.31 CO LINE GROUPS
Outside lines can be placed in one of eight groups if
the customer’s business requires such grouping.
Stations are then individually assigned access to
these lines and given the ability to dial on particular
lines.
200.32 CO LINE LOOP SUPERVISION
The 96EX system can be programmed to monitor
CO lines while on-hold wnnected to RAN devices or
Voice Mail systems or in Trunk-to-Trunk wnnections
for disconnect signal provided by the Telco.
After a disconnect signal is detected, the 96EX system will release the CO lines and automatically place
them back in service.
200.33 CO LINE QUEUE
When all the outside lines in a group are busy,
stations can be placed in queue awaiting a line in the
same group to become available. If a station doesn’t
answer the queue signal within 15 sewnds, that
station is dropped from the queue.
200.34 CO LINE INCOMING RINGING ASSIGNMENT
Each CO line may be programmed (in data base
admin) so that incoming ringing on the specified CO
line(s) may be assigned initial ringing to one of the
following destinations:
.
one or more stations (Keyset or SLT)

To a UCD, Voice Mail or Hunt Group
e
Off-Net (via Speed Dial)
The ring-in will follow Day Ring assignments unless
Night Service mode is active, in which case all
incoming CO calls will follow Night Ring assignments.
When ringing is assigned to a keyset, a direct line
appearance or an idle Loop button must be available
to receive the call. Station call forwarding of initial
ringing CO call is possible and can be directed to
other keysets with an available Loop button or direct
appearance.
If the initially ringing CO call cannot rfng at the
destination assigned, it will ring at the first Attendant
station.
NOTE: You cannot Station Call Forward an initially
ringing CO call to UCD, Voice Mail, or Hunt groups
if the line is assigned to fing at more than one station.
200.35 CO RING DETECT
The duration of the ringing signal from the CO or the
PBX is matched with ringing detection circuitry in the
KSU. The ring detect can range from 200 to 900
msec, programmed in 100 msec increments. This
timer helps prevent false ringing.
200.36 CONFERENCE
There are three different types of conferencing:
A.
Add On Conference
Up to fwe internal parties can engage in a
conference, or four internal parties with a limit
of one external party.
B.
Multi-Line Conference
One internal station can engage in a confer-
ence with two outside parties.
C.
Unsupervised Conference
The conference initiator can exit a conference
with two outside parties and leave them in an
unsupervised conference. The initiator can reenter the conference at any time. The 96EX
system can automatically teminate the call
when both parties hang up, when Loop Supervision is provided by the telw and enabled in
the data base.
A programmable wnference timer will disconnect the unsupewised wnference if the initiator
does not re-enter.(Requires APL board.)
200.37 CONFERENCE ENABLE/DISABLE
A. Programmable Per Station:
This feature will allow the system to be administered on a per station basis for the ability of a
station to initiate a wnference.
B. Programmable Per CO Line:
CO lines can be individually programmed to
allow Conference capabilities.
200.36 DATA BASE PRINTOUT (DUMP)
Through a system programming wmmand, either
portions of or a wmplete data base dump can be
printed using the RS232C wnnector located on the
96EX CPB.
200.39 DAY/NIGHT CLASS OF SERVICE
GW
This feature allows stations that are a certain COS
during the day, to be assigned a different COS when
the system is put in the night mode. The night COS
goes into affect when the system is placed into the
night mode, manually or automatically. This pre-
vents the misuse of phones after hours.
200.40 DEFAULT BUTTON MAPPING
The 96EX allows for 22 flexible buttons on each
Enhanced or Executive key telephones to be flexibly
assigned to CO/PBX lines, DSS buttons, Speed Diaf
or Feature buttons. However the system will power
up with a default button mapping as shown in Figure
200-l. The Basic key telephone buttons are defaufted exactly like the Enhanced and Executive with
the exception of button 17 (button above the Hold
button) which defaufts as a loop button.
200.41 DIAL PULSE SENDING
Each CO interface circuit for outside lines can be
programmed to send dial pulse or DTMF signafs.
Dialing speed and break/make ratios are program-
mable.
200.42 DIAUNG PRIVILEGES
The system provides a flexible means of providing
toll or dialing restriction. Through the assignment of
class of service (both station and outside line) many
wmbinations of allow and deny numbers can be set.
Both area and office codes can be screened for
allow/deny privileges.
200.43 DIRECT INWARD SYSTEM ACCESS
(DISA)
Allows as many as three simultaneous outside line
calls to be programmed to provide direct access to
the system and the use of features such as WATS
lines, intercom dial tone or the ability to dial out on
outgoing trunks without going through the attendant.

the DISA circuits. Each DISA line can be pro-
grammed independently for 24 hour DISA use
or night DISA use only.
B.
CO Line Group Access
Incoming DISA callers may access all line
groups such as m or WATS lines or other
outgoing services from home or while away
from the office. The Class of Service assigned
to the outgoing line accessed will determine the
dialing privilege for the call.
C.
Station Access
DISA callers may dial any station directly without going thru the attendant.
If a DISA caller attempts to call a station that is
busy or does not answer the system will return
ICM dial tone at the end of a programmable
timer (Preset Forward Timer). This will allow
the DISA caller to try another station without
having to dial into the system again.
200.44 DIRECT STATION SELECTION
The user with DSS buttons assigned at their Key
Telephone can call an intercom station by simply
pressing the appropriate DSS button. The called
station is automatically signaled.
200.45 DIRECTED CALL PICKUP

A station can pick up an intercom call, transferred, incoming, or recalling outside line call to
a specific unattended station. The call must be
a tone ringing call.
Call Pick-up - UCD Groups
B.
Stations outside of a UCD group can pick up
an intercom call, transferred, incoming, or recalling outside line call ringing to a specific
UCD station. The call must be a tone ringing
call.
200.46 DISABLE OUTGOING CO LINE ACCESS
This feature allows the first Attendant station to dial
a code and disable a CO line from outgoing CO calls.
This applies to all station(s) that have access to that
line. Incoming status is not affected. This feature is
a part of the “Maintenance” package.
200.47 DO NOT DISTURB (DND)
Placing a keyset in DND will eliminate incoming
outside line ringing, intercom calls, transfers and
paging announcements. A ringing station may go
into DND to silence ringing. The attendant can
override a station in DND. The station in DND can
use the telephone to make normal outgoing calls. A
station can be denied this feature through program-
ming.
A- One-Time Do Not Disturb
Allows a station user to turn off muted ringing
that occurs whileoff hook (handset or ON/OFF)
on another call. Useful when having an important conversation and do not wish to be disturbed by ringing. The station, while off hook,
(ON/OFF or handset) depresses the DND but-
ton which eliminates muted ringing. When the
station goes on-hook the DND button is extinguished and DND is canceled. This feature is
not available to intercom Phone Box users.
200.48 DTMF SENDING
Each CO interface circuit for
individually programmed to send DTMF (tone) or
dial pulse signals.
200.49 EMERGENCY TRANSFER

so that in case of a power failure, up to 12 CO lines
can be automatically connected to specified cus-
tomer provided SLT’s.
200.50 END TO END SIGNALLING
This feature indicates the capability of the system to
accept DTMF tones from stations, send them
through the public network and have them received
at the distant end for computer access, or a variety
of control functions or inward call completion at a
distant switching system.
200.51 EXCLUSIVE HOLD
When a line is placed on Exclusive Hold, no other
station in the system can retrieve this call. Hold may
be programmed to be activated on the first or second
depression of the Hold button. CO Lines while in a
transfer hold are always placed in an Exclusive Hold
condition.
200.52 EXECUTIVE OVERRIDE
This feature allows certain stations to be designated
as executive stations with the ability to override and
“Barge in” on other keysets engaged in conversation
on a CO line. Stations engaged in intercom wnversations can be overridden, however, the intercom
call will be dropped when the override occurs.

200.60 FORCED ACCOUNT CODES
The 96EX system allows the system to be arranged
so that station users must enter an account code
before placing an outside call. Account codes can
also be used as a Traveling Class-of-Service to
upgrade a restricted stations class-of-service for
unrestricted dialing. Account codes must be entered
before the call when forced.
200.61 FORCED LEAST COST ROUTING

200.62 GROUP CALL PICK-UP
Stations can be placed in one or more of four pick-up
groups. Stations within a group can pick up tone
ringing intercom calls, recalling outside line ringing,
or transferred outside line calls for another station in
?hat group.
200.63 HEADSET COMPATiBiLlTY
?he Starplus electronic key telephones are designed
to allow the connection of an indushy standard,
electret mic compatible, modular headset. The user
connects the modular headset to the handset jack
on the telephone leaving the handset in place. The
ON/OFF button on the key telephone is then used to
activate the headset.
200.64 HEADSET MODE
Each Electronic key telephone can be individually
programmed for headset operation. When programmed, an industry standard Headset with it’s
adapter box may be connected to a key telephone
for headset use. This allows handset or headset
operation by switching the selector switch on the
adapter box. Speakerphone operation and call announce on intercom are disabled while a station has
enabled headset mode.
Once programmed in station programming the user
may then select between headset mode or normal
handset/speakerphone mode by simply dialing a
code or pressing a user programmable flex button.
200.65 HEARING AID COMPATIBLE
All Starplus Electronic key telephones and Starplus
Single Line Telephones are hearing aid compatible
in compliance with the FCC Part 15, section 68.316.
This allows the telephone to be used in conjunction
with users wearing hearing aids.
200.66 HOLD PREFERENCE
This allows either Exclusive or System hold as the
primary hold on the first depression of the HOLD
button, depending on programming.
200.67 HOLD RECALL
When an outside call has been on Hold for a pro-
grammable length of time, recall ringing tone is sent
to the station placing the call on Hold. If this station
does not answer the recall, a recall tone is sent to
the attendant(s).
200.68 HOT LINE
Electronic Key Telephones may be programmed to
immediatefy call or ring down a particular station or
outside number upon going off hook This is performed by programming the stations Off-Hook preference to activate a DSS or Speed dial feature key.
200.69 HUNT GROUPS
The system can be arranged for up to eight (8) Hunt
groups. Each Hunt group can contain up to eight
stations each. Each Hunt group is independently
arranged to utilize either a pilot hunting technique or
station hunting technique.
A. Pilot Hunting
incoming CO, transferred CO, and intercom
calls can be directed to a pilot extension number of a Hunt group. The system will search
sequentially (in the order the extensions were
entered in the data base programming) for an
idle station in the group and will ring that station.
Calls directed directly to stations (by calling the
extension number) within the hunt group will not
hunt but receive call progress tones of the
extension dialed.
B. Station Htinting
Incoming CO, transferred CO, and intercom
calls that are presented to a busy, or DND
station, that is a member of a Station Hunt
group, will search sequentially (in the order the
extensions were entered in data base programming) for an idle station in the group and will
ring that station. Calls can also be directed to
the groups pilot number for hunting.
C.
Hunt Group Chaining
Hunt Groups can be chained or joined together
forming larger Hunt Groups. This is accomplished by assigning a pilot hunt group number
as the last member of a group.
200.70 INCOMING CO LINES OFF-NET FORWARD (VIA SPEED DIAL)
Allows the first attendant to forward incoming CO
calls to an off-net location. The attendant can forward a group of CO lines or all CO lines to a off-net
location. The attendant must have a direct appearance of the CO line(s) to be forwarded. Off-net
forwarding is accomplished via use of a speed dial
bin and requires the APL card to be installed in the
system.
200.71 INTERCOM CALLING
The System’s archiiecture allows 14 intercom paths
for internal traffic capability, 12 of these paths can
be used by SLT’s. A station is reached on intercom
by dialing the associated three-digit number.
200.72 INTERCOM SIGNALING SELECT
Users can control the method by which they receive
intercom calls and signals. A convenient intercom
signal switch is located on each Key Telephone for
easy selection. The choices are:

number dialed on an outside line. Up to 32 digits can
be stored. Outside line selection of the same line
used is automatic.
200.74 LCD INTERACTIVE DISPLAY
The optional 30 button Executive Key Telephone
provides the user with visual indication of call status,
Calls to and from other extensions, number dialed,
line used and camp-on are some of the features
displayed.
200.75 LEAST COST ROUTING (LCR)
Allows the system to automatically select the least
costly route available according to the number dialed, the time of day/day of week, the class of service
(COS) assigned to the station/trunk group priority
level assigned.
A. LCR 3-Digit Table
This table is divided into 2 sections: “Leading 1”
(“1” is dialed before the number) and “Non
Leading 1” (no “1” is dialed before the number).
This gives the system the ability to handle call
routing in areas that require a “1” before a long
distance number as well as in areas that do not
require the “1”.
B. LCR 6-Digit Table (Office Codes)
The 6-Digit Table can include 20 office code
maps. Each map can be programmed to route
up to 800 office codes to one of the 16 possible
route lists. Each map must be associated with
a specific area code in the 3-Digit Table. Several different office code maps can be used with
the same area code to provide additional rout-
ing flexibilii.
C.
Route List Tables
Up to 16 different routes can be programmed.
Each route can contain up to 4 route lists - one
for each of the 4 time periods. Up to 7 CO line
groups (routing choices) and their correspond-
ing Insert/Delete Tables may be programmed
within each route list.
D.
Insert/Delete Tables
There are 20 Insert/Delete Tables. Up to 20
digits, including pauses, can be inserted and up
to 16 digits deleted. Digits can be inserted
before or after the number dialed, but can be
deleted only from the beginning of a number
dialed.
E.
Weekly Time Tables
The least costly route for a particular dialed
number may be different at different times of the
day and on different days of the week. To
accommodate this situation, there are 2 Timeof-Day tables - Daily Start Trne Table and
Weekly Schedule Table.
The Weekly Time table determines which one
of the 4 Routes LCR should use based on the
Time-of-Day and Day-of-the-Week.
F.
Daily Start Time Tables
The Daily Start Time tables allow the user to
match the Time Periods discount structure to
the carriers rate schedule.
G.
Exception Tables
This table is used to route operator assisted
calls and any other calls which would use a lor 2-digit number rather than a 3-digit area
code.
H.
Default LCR Database
In an effort to decrease installation and set up
time usually associated with LCR a default LCR
data base has been incorporated. The default
LCR data base will provide basic routing for all
local and long distance dialing.
I.
LCR Routing for Toll Information
This feature adds provisions to the LCR call
processing which will allow common call routing
for all toll infomation calls.
1 -(XXX)5551 212, (XXX)5551 212, l-555121 2 and 555-l 212 calls will all be intercepted
and sent to a selected route in the Route List
Table. Numbers dialed will be integrated and if
it is determined to be a toll information call,
either preceded with an area code or without or
with a leading digit 1 or not, the call will be sent
to the route designated in programming.

200.76 LOOP BUT-TON CO LINE ACCESS
A station not having a direct appearance for a CO
line will receive incoming CO calls and transferred
CO calls under the loop button. Only one call at a
time can be connected to a keyset on the loop button.
If more than one loop button is on a key set, the loop
buttons may be conferenced together. If all programmed Loop buttons on a keyset are busy or have
a CO call on hold, the party attempting to transfer a
CO line to that station will receive busy tone and
cannot transfer the call to that station.
is attempted, the CO line will recall the initiator
immediately and the transfer recall timer will start.
CO lines are also presented to a Loop when dialing
out using LCR or when using speed dial to dial out
and the line chosen does not appear on the key
station.
200.77 LOUD BELL CONTROL (LBC)
Two sets of relay-controlled contacts are provided to
connect external signaling devices (optional). Each
set of contacts can be programmed to follow the day
and night ringing signals of any station.
The first Loud Bell Control (LBC) contact also serves
as the External Night Ringing control contact. Loud
Bell Control Contacts (one each) are provided with,
and require the installation of, a Pm unit for each
contact desired. (Max 2)
200.78 MEET ME PAGE
Users may answer a page call from any phone in the
system by dialing a special code. The party who
initiated the page must remain off-hook.
200.79 MESSAGE WAfTlNG

200.85 OFF-HOOK PREFERENCE
Auto Line Access
A.
Each station, key or SLT, may have their phone
programmed to access a panicular Cd Line
such as a private line or a line from a Group of
CO lines upon going off-hook. This is useful in
Centrex or PBX applications when station users
have dedicated lines. Outside line dial tone is
received just by going off-hook, without the
need to dial an access code.
Auto Feature Access
B.
In addition to auto line access Key Stations
have the ability to have their off-hook preference select a DSS or feature button upon going
off-hook or pressing the ONfOFF button.
Hot Line
C.
Electronic Key Telephones may be programmed to immediately call or ring down a
particular station or outside number upon going
off hook. This is performed by programming
the stations Off-Hook preference to activate a
DSS or Speed dial feature key.
D.
Intercom Access
When off-hook preference is enabled, at a key
station, that station may still obtain intercom dial
tone for accessing internal stations or other
system features. This is done either by press-
ing an intercom button or dialing their own
intercom station number prior to going off -hook.
User Programmable Preference
E.
Based on a station programmable option Key
stations may be given the abilii to enable,
disable or change their off-hook preference by
dialing a code. This option can be denied in
station programming on a per key station basis.
200.86 OFF-HOOK SlGNALLiNG
If a station has been programmed to receive direct
outside line ringing and is busy on another call, that
station will receive muted ring to indicate another call
is ringing in. Additionally CO calls may be “campedon” to a busy station and receive muted ringing.
200.87 OFF-PREMISE EXTENSIONS
The Off-Premises Extension Board (OPX) provides
4 FCC registered 2500-type single line interface
ports. This enables the use of 4 off-premise 2500

200.99 PULSE-TO-TONE SWITCHOVER
When commanded, the system will change the signaling on an outside line from dial pulse to DTMF
(tone), allowing the use of common carriers behind
a dial pulse outside fine. This can be done manually
when diaiing, or can be stored within a speed dial
number.
200.100 RANGE PROGRAMMING
The Stat-plus 96EX allows for range programming
when programming Co lines and Stations. Range
programming allows you to program all parameters
alike for the entire range or you can change or modify
a few items that will be copied to all members in the
range.
200.101 REMOTE ADMINISTRATION
The Remote Administration feature allows author-
ized personnel to access the administration pro-
gramming via a terminal device (portable terminal
device or personal computer with communications
software package).
The feature permits the review and entry of the
customer database in the same manner as via the
telephone at “admin” extension 100. The terminal
device can be connected directly to the RS232 con-
nector on the CPB board, or can be accessed by a
telephone modem linking the CPB’s RS232 connector (via a CO line) to a remote location.
200.102 REMOTE SYSTEM MONITOR AND
MAINTENANCE
A. Remote System Monitor
The Remote Monitor feature provides remote
access to the installed system for diagnostic
purposes. These capabiliiies benefit Service
personnel enabling them to support the end
user remotely. Different levels of access, via
password, allows authorized personnel to
trace, monitor and “up-load” critical information
directly from the 96EX system. This provides a
more accurate means of acquiring system information that leads to a quick resolution of
problems that may occur. This is all done without interfering with ongoing call processing or
normal system operation, and in many cases
may be performed without a site visit. An ex-
ternal modem wnnected to the CPB RS232-C
is required for remote access.
Capabilities allowed and reserved for this “High
level troubleshooting” in addition are:
l
Monitor Mode
l

in queue, the “XX CALLS IN QUEUE” display
will be seen at all UCD members of that group.
NOTE: If a UCD mefnbef is taken auf of fhe gfoup
(ie. DND, Call Forward, Unavaikble etc.) they will not
feceive ca//s in queue infofrnation.
2. Any station not assigned in a UCD group can
view the number of calls in queue for any given
UCD Group. To view the number of calls in
queue the station user dial’s the Calls In Queue
code (or presses a programmed FLEX button
with this code) then enters the UCD group
desired. The LCD will display, on a real time
basis, the number of calls in queue for that
group.
F. UCD Auto Wrap-Up vu/ Timer
After completion of a UCD call (on-hook) the
agent will not be subjected to another UCD call
for the duration of the Auto Wrap-Up timer
(regardless of the number of calls in queue),
allowing the agent to finish call related work or
access other facilities. This will allow agents to
remove themselves from the group (ie. DND,
Unavailable, Call Forward or originate another
call). The auto wrap-up timer is programmed
as part of the UCD data base. (System-widej
G. UCD AVAILABLE / UNAVAILABLE
Stations programmed into a UCD group may
log off and on to their assigned UCD group by
dialing an Available/Unavaiiable code. When
an agent is in the Available mode that agent will
receive UCD calls in the normal manner. When
an agent is in the Unavailable mode that agent
will no longer receive UCD type calls, however
may receive non-UCD calls. Agents that have
logged off by going Unavailable will receive a
visual reminder that they are logged off with a
flashing LED and or a LCD display message.
200.115 UNIVERSAL NIGHT ANSWER (UN,A}
Incoming CO lines can be programmed for Universal
Night Answer (UNA). Stations which do not have
access to a line during the day can answer that line
while the System in the Night Mode by dialing a UNA
code.
200.116 VOICE MAIL GROUPS (VM)
The Voice Mail feature automatically handles unan-
swered calls. Stations may forward calls to a voice
mail group (for leaving mail) or may call the voice
mail group directly (to retrieve mail) with no assis-
tance from the attendant. Up to eight (8) voice mail
groups can be configured in the system. Each group
can contain up to eight voice mail stations, each of
which interfaces with a prt on a SIB or OPX card.
Each voice mail “station” can be shared by a number
of actual users. An SIB or OPX Board and an APL
Board and Ring Generator are required when utiliz-
ing the 96EX Voice Mail “In-Band” integration.
A. VM In-Band Signaling Integration
The 96EX iystem integrates with a wide range
of Voice Mail systems through the use of “In-
Bandm signaling.
B. VM Message Waiting Indication
When Voice Mail has received a voice message
for a user who has a station on the 96EX
system, the VM connected to the system will
feave a message waiting indication at the VM
users station. When the station user retrieves
their mail, the VM system wili cancel the mes-
sage waiting indication left at a station via a VIv!
port.
The message waiting indication will appear on
the programmed Voice Mail (group) button. If
such a button has not been programmed, a
voice mail message waiting indication will appear on the MSG WAIT button as a normai
message wafting signal. SLTs will receive a
voice majl message waiting as a normai message waiting indication (Message waiting
lamp).
C. VM CO Disconnect Signal - Pass Thru
To avoid Voice Mail ports from being tied up, as
a result of CO iine callers abandoning the call
or not exiting the VM system properly, a disconnect signal has been added to notify the VM
system that a CO caller has abandon. “Silence”
is provided to the VM port foliowed by ‘busy
tone” to aid the VM system to recognize that an
intercom caller has abandoned the cali.
5. VM Tone Mode Calling Option
Voice mail systems and/or Automated Atten-
dants can utilize the Calling Station Tone Mode
option. This is useful when using supervised
transfer or call screening options on voice mail
or auto attendant(s) requiring ringback tone for
proper call handling.
200.117 VOLUME CONTROLS
Both speaker and tone ringing volume can be sepa-
rately adjusted by utilizing the two slide switches on
the right side of the keyset.

200.118 ACCOUNT CODE
SLT stations may enter an account code, up to 12
digits in length, to identify calls for billing/tracking
purposes. The account code may be entered either
before the call or during the call (the outside caller is
placed on hold while the account code is entered if
during the call.). The account code is recorded on
the SMDR printout. Account codes are non-verified
and can vary in length from 1 to 12 digits.
200.119 AUTOMATIC LINE ACCESS
SLT’s may have their station programmed to access
a particular CO Line such as a private line or a line
from a Group of CO lines upon going off-hook. This
is useful in Centrex or PBX applications when station
users have dedicated or individual lines. Outside
line dial tone is received just by going off-hook,
without the need to dial access codes.
200.120 CALL FORWARD
Single line telephones may direct intercom calls and
transferred CO lines to be forwarded to another
station. SLTs have access to all forwarding options
that Key station user have:
l
‘Call Forward - All Calls
l

200.123 CONFERENCE /WITH PERSONAL
PARK
Single Line Telephones (SLT) can initiate a conference between two outside (CO) calls. The Personal
Park feature is used in conjunction with the SLT
conference code to make this possible. A combina-
tion of features are derived from these new dial
codes (Personal Park, Flip/Flop, and Multi-line Conference).
200.124 DIRECT OUTSIDE LINE ACCESS
Single line telephones can access outside lines by
dialing CO line group access codes 9 or 81-87.
200.125 DIRECT OUTSIDE LINE RINGING
Single line telephones can be set up to receive direct
outside line ringing. SLTs may be programmed to
receive incoming CO Ringing on more than one CO
line. However, an SLT can answer only W call at
a time. If a SLT is busy when a CO call rings in, no
notification will be given to that SLT station.
200.126 DIRECTED CALL PICK UP
Tone ringing intercom calls, Initial Ringing CO calls
and transferred outside line calls to specific stations
can be picked up by single line telephones. For this
type of pickup, the stations do not have to be in the
same pickup group.
200.127 DO NOT DISTURB
Each telephone user can be allowed to place their
phone in Do No Disturb. The user will receive error
tone if they are not allowed this feature. They will
also receive a wnfidence tone when lifting the handset to remind them they are in Do Not Disturb. The
attendant can override a station in DND.
A busy station can be notified that an outside line is
on hold and waiting for them. The busy station is
notified of this by a beep tone. Single line telephones can receive a camp on indication or initiate
one by using an access code.
200.122 CONFERENCE
An SLT user can initiate a conference with an outside
line and one other internal station.

mally have access to by dialing [d [5]. An external
ringing device must be provided.
200.133 OFF-HOOK PREFERENCE
SLT’s may have their station programmed to access
a particular CO Line such as a private line or a line
from a Group of CO lines upon going off-hook. This
is useful in Centrex or PBX applications when station
users have dedicated lines. Outside line dial tone is
received just by going off-hook, without the need to
dial access codes.
200.134 PERSONAL PARK
Single line telephones can be connected to two calls
(Intercom or CO lines) at the same time and Yip/flop”
between the two calls. This can be performed with
originated or received calls. This feature is also
used with SLT multi-line conference feature.
200.13!5 QUEUING
Single line telephones can be placed in a queue
awaiting the first available outside line in a group to
become available.
200.136 STATION SPEED DIAL
Each SLT user may program up to 20 individual
speed dial numbers. Each speed dial number can
be up to 24 digits in length. There are a total of 1280
speed locations to be divided among all telephones.
If single line telephones are to be allowed this fea-
ture, an APL board must be installed.
200.137 SYSTEM SPEED DIAL
Each SLT user can be allowed access to system
speed dial numbers on a programmable basis. If
single line telephones are to be allowed this feature,
an APL board must be installed. The last forty sys-
tem speed numbers override toll restriction.
200.138 TRANSFER
Outside lines may be transferred by or to single line
telephones. These transfers can be either an-
nounced or unannounced.
ATTENDANT FEATURES ’
200.139 ATTENDANT DISABLE OUTGOING
ACCESS
The first attendant can disable CO lines, preventing
outgoing access to those lines. This is useful for
removing a faufty line from service, or for reserving
CO lines for important use. All stations that can
normally make calls on the lines are affected, but
incoming calls are not affected. A CO line may be
disabled while it is being used; when the trunk becomes idle, further outgoing access will be pre-
vented.
200.140 ATTENDANT OVERFLOW
System programming allows the attendant station to
be programmed so that if the attendant is busy or not
there, the call will be automatically forwarded to
another predetermined station, VM Group, Hunt
Group or UCD group after a programmed period of
time. (Refer to Call Forward, Station and Preset)
200.141 ATTENDANT OVERRIDE
Attendant stations may override a busy station or
ring a station in DND. While busy, pressing the
override key provides override tone and a five sec-
ond delay before voice cut-through to the called
party occurs, automatically placing any outside line
call on Hold. The Attendant Cverride function may
be programmed on to a flex button and can be
enabled or disabled in programming.
200.142 ATTENDANT POSITION
The system identifies a maximum of three program-
mable stations as attendants for line recalls and
attendant features. The first programmed attendant
can enter system date and time information as well
as System Speed numbers from this position without
entering the programming mode. The 96EX System
is placed in Night Service by any programmed atten-
dant pressing the NIGHT (DND) button.
200.143 AITENDANT RECALL
A held CO call left unattended by a station will recall

same as SLT station features. The only excep-
tion is “Receiving Message Waiting Indication”,
which is not allowed. Thus, OPX stations can-
not answer a message waiting indication since
they are incapable of receiving such an indication. Ail other feature operation is identical to
that of on-premise SLT stations.
Each OPX port requires an OLl3C network
circuit. An FCC registered interface, such as
RJ2lX, is required to connect to the public
network. Only SLT devices capable of sending
true DTMF can be used on an OPX circuit
provided by the system. When an OPX board
is installed, four station ports are rendered un-
usable, reducing the maximum number of sta-
tions in the system by four. For example, with
an OPX board inserted into the second KIB card
slot extensions 108 through ill support four
OPX circuits (extensions 112 through 115 are
not usable).An Application Board (APL) and a
Ring Generator (RG) are required when installing an OPX Board.
400.4 OPTIONAL COMPONENTS
A. Application Board (APL)
.The Application Board (APL) provides the ma-
trix and controlling circuitv for DISA, unsupervised conference and one external page zone
as well as the circuitv for two DTMF receivers
and two DTMF senders to support a small
number of single line telephones. The APL has
provisions for the addition of a Single Line
DTMFRS Unit (SLU), used to support larger
quantities of single-line telephones, and an RS232C Module (RSM) to add an additional RS232C port for outputting SMDR information
only. This port cannot be used for programming
locally or remotely via a terminal. The APL also
has a connection for Recorded Announcement
(RAN) input and its control contacts.
B. RS-232C Module (RSM)
This RS232C Module (RSM) mounts on the
Application Board (APL) and provides a second
RS232C connector. This connector may be
used to output SMDR data while the standard
RS232C (located on the CPB) is used for
system printout or Remote Administration.
C. Singie Line DTMF Receiver/Sender Unit
ww
Used to expand the DTMF receiversand send-
ers in the System to support single line telephones. The module is added to the APL board
and contains four DTMF receivers and one
DTMF sender.
Note: Adding the SLU is strongly recommended
when SLT traffic is expected to be heav or when
connecting a Voice Mail or Automated Attendant to
the 96EX System.
D.
Power Failure Transfer Unit (PFT)
There can be two Power Failure Transfer Units
installed in the Basic KSU, each providing automatic direct cut-through connection of six
CO/PBX lines to six single line telephones in
case of commercial power failure or system
processor failure. The single line telephones
may or may not be intercom stations. For each
PFT installed there is one set of Loud Bell
Control contacts provided. This unit can be
removed or inserted with power on the KSU.
There is a manual switch that activates the PFT
for testing purposes.
E.
Battev Charging Unit (BC)
The Battery Charging Unit (BC) installs into the
External Power Supply Housing (EPH2) and
provides the charging circuitry for a 24V dc
battery package. The charging rate is 28V dc
at 0.5 ampere for the Basic KSU or 2.0 ampere
with the Expansion KSU (when the second
Power Supply is added).
F.
Single Line Ring Generator and M/W
Power Supply Unit (RG)
Provides the 9OV ac, 20 Hz, ringing supply for
supporting single line telephones and OPXs.
Also provides the voltage to light single line
telephone M/W lights when SIB cards are installed in the system. This unit plugs into the
External Power Supply Housing 2 (EPH2). One
(1) unit is required when the system will be
equipped with single line telephones.

The Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) for each
component of the 96EX Key Telephone System is
shown in Table 400-l 6. The MTBF figures are calculated based on:
Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) represents for
a particular interval, the total functionina life of a
.
population of an item divided by the &mber of
failures within the population during the measure-
ment interval. The definition holds for the time. cvcles, miles, events, or other measures of life units.
This does NOT provide adefinite failure time but only
indicates possible failure probabilities based on calculations.

Key Telephone System
SECTION 500
INSTALLATION
500.1 SITE PLANNING
The Starplus 96EX Hybrid Key Telephone System,
like most electronic off ice equipment, should not be
subjected to harsh environmental conditions. To
assure easy servicing and reliable operation, several
factors must be considered when planning the system installation. Always remember the following
BEFORE installing the KSU and wiring:
The Basic KSU, Expansion KSU and External
Power Supply Housing are designed for wall
mounting.
Both power supplies operate on 117V ac, 60 Hz
single phase electricity. A3-wire (parallel blade
with ground) receptacle must be provided on a
dedicated, separately fused q 5 ampere circuit.
The KSU should be within 25 feet of the telephone company (Telco) RJ2lX. The KSU
should be centrally located and care should be
taken to stay within prescribed cable lengths. It
is recommended that 24 AWG 3-pair twisted
cable be used.
Mounting space for standard backboard, or a
plywood type board for MDF blocks, if a standard backboard is not used.
A well ventilated area having a recommended
temperature range of 70 to 78 degrees Fahren-
heit and a humidity range of 5 to 90% (non-condensing).
Lighting and accessibilii of KSU for servicing.
Protection from flooding, flammable materials,
excessive dust, and vibration.
Proximity of radio transmitting equipment, arc
welding devices, copy machines, and other
electrical equipment that are capable of generating electrical interference.
Access to a good earth ground such as a me-
tallic COLD water pipe. Inspect the pipe for
non-metallic joints.
500.2 UNPACKING THE 96EX BASIC SYSTEM
Remove the Key Service Unit from the shipping
carton and stand it upright on a level working surface
with the cover facing forward. Remove the cover by
turning the two screws on the front of the cabinet l/4
turn and tilting the cover outward.
Remove all remaining items from the Basic System
packing box and inspect for shipping damage. The
Basic System ships with all the components necessary for a working 8 CO line by 16 station system.
The components included in the Basic System Package are:
l

To ensure that the system will operate properly, a
good earth ground is required. Use of the Telco
ground (source not demark) or a metallic COLD
water pipe usually provides a reliable ground path.
Carefully check that the pipe does not contain insulated joints that could isolate the ground. In the
absence of the COLD water pipe, a ground rod or
other source may be used. A no. 8 AWG copper wire
should be used between the ground source and the
KSU and EPH2 (25 feet maximum). The farther
from the ground source, the larger the ground wire
used should be. The wire should be kept as short
as possible and can be connected to the ground lug
provided on the lower left side of the front face of the
KSU (cover off) (Refer to Figure 500-l) and the right
side of the EPH2.
SYSTEM GROUNDING
500.4 KSU INSTALLATION
Refer to Figures 500-1,500-2, and 500-3 for general
mounting arrangements and dimensions. The KSU
is mounted in the following manner:
The KSU is designed for wall mounting only,
and should not be mounted directly on a masonry or dry walled surface. A wooden backboard (plywood or pressed board) of sufficient
size should be attached to the wall for the KSJ
to be mounted upon. The KSU mounting template should be used to identify screw hole
locations. It is important that the KSU and MDF
connecting blocks be mounted on the backboard.

the KSU. Lift the KSU and place it onto the
screws. When the KSU is in position, the
screws can be tightened and the KSU is se-
curely mounted.
500.5 LIGHTNING PROTECTION
The Starplus 96EX Hybrid Key Telephone System
should have Central Office lines and OPX stations
protected with proper lightning surge arrestors. This
will provide protection from damaging surges on
sensitive cabling by non-direct lightning strikes.
The protection should contain a compliment of three-
element gasdischarged tubes to ground high potential surges, and associated circuits to absorb and
filter lower level surges. This type of lightning protection is available through telephone equipment
supply houses. Care should be taken to ensure that
such protection devices are installed in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions and to ensure
that no more than one set of protectors be installed
on central office lines at the installation premises.
Improper installation can be a serious safety hazard.
Failure to provide the proper lightning protection will
increase maintenance expense and require more
available spare parts.

the batteries and protect them.
.
Use the shortest length of stranded wire pcssible to connect the batteries. Use wire &es
recommended by the National Electrical Code
ancYor local regulations.
.
The batteries you are installing MUST be fully
charged.
.
The battery voltage of both 12v batteries con-
nected in series MUST be 22v or greater in
order for the Starpfus 96EX to function properly.
If the manufacturer’s suggested float charge voltage
of the batteries is different than 27.3 &3v, then the
installer MUST contact VCS field Service for tie
approptiate interface. lXs voltage should be br the
ambient temperature expected for the equipment
room.
A 12 ampere, 32V minimum fuse or a 12 ampere DC
instantaneous tripping circuit breaker should be installed in line with the battery negative lead to protect
the batteries from damage. Refer to the Typical
Battery Interconnection Layout, Figure 500-6.

.
Batteries are to be placed in a limited access
room or cabinet with adequate ventilation of any
battery gases that may be present.
LATION
The Printed Circuit Boards (PCB’s) used to configure
the system contain static sensitive components that
will require a few simple handling precautions to
avoid damage.
Keep all PCB’s in their protective anti-static bags
until they are installed in the KSU. All PCB’s that are
not in protective bags should be handled by the card
edges only.
Never lay an unprotected PCB card on a carpet&
surface.
Always use a grounded w&t strap when
handling PCB’s. This will minimize the
possibility of static damage.
A. Installing the DC/DC Converter Unit
(DC/DC)
Locate and unpack the DC/DC Convefler Unit
(DCU). Using the ejector tabs, insert the unit into the
BKSU card slot 0 or DC/DC card slot.
EXTERNAL POWER HOUSING2 (EPH2)
B. Installing PCBs
NOTE: IMth the exception of the CPB and DC/DC,
PCBs can be safely unplugged wilh thepo wer on but
it is suggested that the NormalGen4ce switch be
placed in the %ervicen mode while removing or in-
serting into fhe system.
When inserting a card into the KSU, make sure the
card edges are aligned with the KSU card guides,
that the service switch is in the sewice (down) position, and that the component side of the card faces
to the right. Note, the card ejector tabs are cclor
coded to match the designations on the KSU. Make
sure the PCB’s are securely seated in their respective card connectors.
Press firmly on the card ejector tabs once the PCB
is mounted into the KSU. The service switch should
be returned to the normal (up) position.
C. PCB Programming
The COB (Figure 500-g), COA (Figure 500-lo), KIB
(Figure 500-11) SIB and OPX cards each have a
service switch on the front of the card. The switch
should be in the Normal ‘(up) position for normal
operation.
The CPB has a DIP switch assembly for program-
ming various system functions. Make sure the
switches are positioned according to the functions
plied by the Telco at the demarcation point. The
RJ2iX should be located within 25 ft. of the KSU.
All CO/PBX line connections are made on the Pl and
P2 cables. The PI connector is located in the Basic
KSU and the P2 connector in the Expansion KSU.
A COB or COA card must be installed in the associated KSU card slot in order for the CO/PBX line
interface connections to be established (Refer to
Tables 500-3 and 500-4).
500.1 I AMPLIFIED CENTRAL OFFICE INTER-
FACE BOARD
There are eight CO line circuits per card. Each card
has a jumper strap (one for each of the eight CO
circuits) which is set by the installer during installation for either 0 db (no gain) or +3 db (gain). (Refer
to Figure 500-10). GairVno gain affects multi-line
conferences and trunk to trunk (DISA or off-net
forward) calls. All other installation requirements are
the same as for the standard COB. When Amplifted
CO connections are desired it is recommended that
a!! CO boards in the system be replaced with COA
boards.
500.12 STATION CONNECTIONS
There is a 50-pin female amphenol-type connector
on each station KIB, SIB and OPX card. These allow
the system to be cabled to the main distribution
frame (MDF). Twenty-five pair telephone cabling
must be prepared with mating connectors to extend
the KSU interface circuits to the MDF. The cables
are routed through the cable clamps at the bottom of
the KSU to the MDF. These cables are then termi-
nated on industry standard 66Ml-50 type punch-
down connector blocks (Refer to Tables 500-5,
500-6, and 500-7). It is recommended that 66Mi -50
split blocks with bridging clips be used to simplify
troubleshooting and to quickly isolate faults.
The amphenol type connectors will be on the front
edge of the printed circuits boards which are plugged
into the green colored card slots. These connectors
require male plug-ended cables for proper attachment. The actual quantity of cable required depends
on the size of the system. Each time a station card
is added to the system, another connector is required. A maximum of six station boards can be
installed in the basic KSU.
After the amphenol type cable connector has been
attached, the cable should be anchored to the cable
clamps at the bottom of the KSU with tie wraps in
order to prevent accidental disconnection.
The Expansion KSU contains four station slots (Refer to Figure 500-3).
500.13 POWER FAILURE TRANSFER AND
LBC CONNECTIONS
The Power Failure Transfer Unit contajns the Loud
Bell Control contacts. The package should contain:
- 1PFT
- 1 two-connector terminal strip
- 1 amphenol clip.
- 2 jack screws
- 4 washer screws
- I plastic terminal strip protector
A. Power Failure Transfer (PFT)
A maximum of two, optional Power Failure Transfer
Units (PFT) can be installed in the Basic KSU. In the
event of a commercial power failure, up to six CO/
PBX lines per PFT can automatically transfer to
single line telephones for emergency communications. These SLT’s can be either rotary or DTM F but
must be equipped with CO powered ringers. These
SLT stations do not have to be used for intercom,
but can be if so desired.
The PFT also provides the contact closure for Loud
Bell Control/CO Line Control. The PFT has a 50-pin
male amphenol connector that allows a 25-pair cable
to be installed and terminated at the MDF.
(Refer to
Figure 500-12 and Table 500-6 for PFr connec-
tions).
B. Loud Bell Control (LBC)
The Statplus 96EX System provides relay contact
closure to activate optional external signaling equipment during incoming CO line ringing or to activate
ancilliary equipment.
The stations for Loud Bell Control are selected as
part of system programming.
Either or both of the
LBC circuits may be assigned to any one station, to
separate stations or to a CO Line to provide wntact
closure while that CO Line is busy. The dry wntacts
will follow the ringing condition of that station or will
remain closed when assigned to a CO line.
The LBC wntacts are installed underneath the PFT
in the Basic KSU (Refer to Figure 500-3).
A. Using the two jack screws, mount the tvvo-con-
nectar terminal strip to the BKSU.
B. Take the RD/OR wire on the back of the termi-
nal strip and route through the slot where the
PFT is mounted and wnnect to the RD/OR wire
on the back of the PFT.
C. Connect the appropriate wire (I or 2) tie
wrapped to the PFT mounting hole to the Kl
wnnector on the PFT.
D. Insert the PFT into the hole provided (Refer to
Figure 500-3) and fasten with two washer
screws.
