Voice Port Status Lights
Each port has a status light labelled 1~8 on the front of the IVP8 unit that indicates the hookswitch
and ring states of the port. The lights are On/Off based on the following:

AMIS Networking

With the addition of the Call Record feature to the DOS-based products with Release 3.3 software,
the number of default Audio Messaging Interchange Specification
been reduced to 200. In addition, further restriction to the number of AMIS networking nodes will
be required to support IVP8 systems with multi-lingual prompts.
The fewer AMIS nodes the system is configured for, the more operating system memory is
available for other features. The Stratagy systems reserve enough operating system memory to run
the number of AMIS nodes specified in the amis_max_nodes parameter in the Stratagy System
Configuration. Additionally, a system using more features and a higher configuration requires
more operating system memory. For example, an eight port IVP8 system with a high amount of
call traffic using the new Call Record feature requires more operating system memory than a
system with fewer ports and/or less traffic. Multi-lingual prompts have been specifically identified
as a feature that requires a reduction in the number of AMIS nodes to increase Operating System
(OS) memory for proper system operation.
Due to the number of feature configurations possible in a Stratagy system, it is not possible to
accurately identify the correct number of AMIS nodes in each case. If the system you are working
on runs out of OS memory, the failure causes the system to continually reboot. To correct this, the
number of AMIS nodes must be reduced.

Exclusive IVP8 Features

Parameters
Because of the unique nature of the interaction process between the IVP8 and Strata CTX or DK,
three parameters are used exclusively with the IVP8 (see
the definitions and settings for these parameters).
•
console_slot_id – identifies the PDKU slot. IVP8 monitors the Direct Station Select (DSS) for
Busy Station Identification.
•
dss_active – tells the IVP8 to retrieve Busy Lamp Field (BLF) busy station information for the
assigned DSS Port field located on the Users Menu – Options screen (see
Options" on page 6-2
•
ksu_time – synchronizes IVP8's system clock with the system clock of the supporting
Strata CTX/Strata DK telephone system. Use of this feature with the Strata CTX requires
SMDI integration.
