System Programming Through A Station; System Program Administration Software (Dkadmin); T1 Interface (Dk424 Only); Tandem Co Line Connections - Toshiba Strata DK14 General Description Manual

System Programming through a Station

The system can be fully programmed with a 20-button, LCD-type digital or electronic telephone.
Programming telephones function the same as any other station when they are not in programming
mode. See "Live System Programming"

System Program Administration Software (DKAdmin)

Toshiba DKAdmin software enables all customer configuration program options (speed dial,
number plan, ring assignment, etc.) to be downloaded and stored on a PC disk. The customer data
can be added or changed, using a PC independent of the Strata DK. DKAdmin is fully functional
on DK14, DK40i and all processors of DK424.
The new (or original) customer program options stored on disk can be uploaded into the Strata DK
from the PC to change (or restore) customer configuration.
DKAdmin software can be used to change or restore a customer's configuration database stored on
the PC disk and then installing at the customer's site or remotely by modem. It enables customer
database information to be transferred from one common control PCB to another, even when
upgrading to a higher level processor.
Remote maintenance interface is enabled by the WSIU (DK14 only), TSIU (DK40i only) or for
both DK40i and DK424, an RSSU and a customer-provided external modem, or a PIOU/PIOUS
with IMDU built-in-modem, or an RSIU with RMDS (DK424 only).
An external customer-supplied modem could be used in place of IMDU or RMDS; however, the
external modem will require a standard telephone port or CO line.

T1 Interface (DK424 only)

The T1 (DS-1) interface provides the system with up to 24 digital voice channels that can be
individually programmed to operate as ANI, DNIS, Tie, DID, loop start or ground start CO lines.
This allows the system to connect to a CO, Long Distance Provider or another type of Key or PBX
system with a T1 interface.
The T1 interface (via the RDTU2 PCB) provides economic advantages through the high-traffic
carrying capacity of its 24 channels and the cost-effectiveness of its digital transmission facilities.
This feature requires a customer-provided, UL listed CSU in most locations of the U.S. In Canada,
a CSA certified CSU/DSU is required.
T1 interface users also benefit from the increased quality and no loss nature of digital
transmission. Access to the T1 interface is completely transparent to station users. With DK424,
Release 4.0, RDTU2 PCBs supports features, which require the hook-flash signal on T1 DID/
DOD/Tie circuits.

Tandem CO Line Connections

This feature enables unattended line-to-line connections for the Strata DK, freeing the
conferencing analog station or voice mail port for other calls and important tasks (see
Page 88 for feature system capacities).
DK14 enables up to two tandem connections
DK40i enables up to three tandem connections
DK424 enables up to 10 tandem connections
When a tandem connection is set up with a [DN] only, the [DN] must appear on the originating
DKT or EKT. With DK14 and DK40i, standard telephones and VM ports that set up a tandem CO
line connection cannot release from the connection.
