INTEGRATING THE VPS WITH THE PANASONIC KX-TD DIGITAL PBX
4.1 GUIDELINES FOR DPT INTEGRATION
4.1.1 Why DPT Integration is Important
The VPS works well with most PBXs because its connections are made through a standard
single line (tip/ring) telephone interface. However, the communication between the PBX and
VPS is best when DPT Integration is used; the VPS is already set up to communicate through
DPT Integration.
Once DPT Integration is established, the PBX sends information to the VPS through the data
link. This information enables the VPS to identify the extension that is calling, know where
from and why a call is forwarded, and recognise what the caller wants to do. This
communication allows features that are only available with DPT Integration—several of which
are described below:
Remote Call Forwarding Set
Auto Configuration
Live Call Screening
Two-Way Recording
Two-Way Transfer
Direct Mailbox Access
Trunk Service

DPT INTEGRATION FEATURES
The subscribers and the Message Manager can
program their extensions from a remote location to
forward various types of calls to a desired extension or
an outside telephone.
The VPS knows what extension numbers exist on the
PBX and creates mailboxes for each extension
automatically. Also sets the VPS clock with data from
the PBX clock.
Extension users can monitor messages as they are
being left in the mailbox or intercept if required.
Extension users can record conversations into their
own mailboxes by pressing one button.
Extension users can record conversations into another
person's mailbox by pressing a button and dialling an
extension number.
The subscriber can directly enter his mailbox when he
calls the VPS. He does not have to dial his mailbox
number.
Each PBX trunk (outside line) group can be assigned
one of 4 incoming call services: Voice Mail Service,
Automated Attendant Service, Interview Service and
Custom Service.
