Moh Port; Maintenance/Smdr Serial Port - ESI -1000 Installation Manual

ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual

MOH port

The MOH (messages-, or music-, on-hold) connector — located on the main board faceplate (ESI-1000, ESI-
600, and ESI-200) or the Base Cabinet's right side (ESI-100) — is a standard
loading custom MOH recordings or for playing live music-on-hold from an external source such as a CD player.

Maintenance/SMDR serial port

The Maintenance/SMDR port is a standard DB9 female serial connector, located on the main board faceplate
(ESI-1000, ESI-600, and ESI-200) or the Base Cabinet's right side (ESI-100 and ESI-50). Use a standard
shielded serial cable, DB9-to-DB9, for printer-to-computer; this is usually male-to-female.
Note: The maximum distance from the cabinet is 100 ft.
The output from the Maintenance/SMDR port is, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. The pinout is:
To program this port, use Function 18 as described in the ESI Communications Servers Programming Manual
(ESI #0450-1050).
Range: Programmable for 300, 1,200, 2,400, 4,800, 9,600, 19,200, 38,400, 57,600, or 115,200 bps.
Default: 38.4K.
Maintenance
Connect a PC (such as a laptop) to the port to perform on-line programming and diagnostics. Also, the
system sends reports to this port.
SMDR
The ESI Communications Server continuously outputs real-time SMDR call records to the port.
Note: The system will buffer up to a specific limit of SMDR records (60,000 on the ESI-1000, or 1,000 on other
ESI Communications Servers) in non-volatile memory when the Maintenance/ SMDR serial port is in
use for programming or uploading (such as during use of ESI System Programmer). If the buffer
becomes full, the system will discard the oldest records.
For more information about the Maintenance/SMDR port, see "SMDR" in the ESI Communications Servers
Programming Manual (ESI #0450-1050).
