If you use an asynchronous connection, you must install the appropriate ISDN Terminal Adapters (TAs), from the list below. The TAs must be operational at both the corporate facility and the Branch Office. This list is complete as of the release date of this document. Refer to the Citel’s Web site: Support@citel.com for the most recent list of recommended ISDN TAs.
ISDN Requirements (for asynchronous connections) Before you install your units, order an ISDN BRI line at both the local site and the remote branch office. This ISDN line should be capable of the following: • The ability to make two “data” calls, one on each B Channel of the ISDN line. •...

Example: 914032881918 • Dialback Num2: Enter the telephone number for dialing the second ISDN B-channel of the EXTender from the PBX location where the Gateway is installed.
IP Network (RVP_Over_IP) This section of the manual provides the necessary information to configure the EXTender for connection within an IP network. Note: The units are programmed at the factory with RVP_Direct “default” settings. The Type parameter must be set to RVP_Over_IP. Corporate Office PBXgateway RJ21...

Dial-Up Modem Connection The Management Interface includes Z Modem functionality for the DB9 dial-up management console port. An external modem attached to the DB9 port (not included with unit) will be required to dial into the management console interface of the EXTender. This console interface will allow remote dial-up access using Z modem protocol to the management console.
Example: Using the Sporster 33.6 modem the following settings would apply: Position Setting DTR Normal mode Verbal result codes DOWN Display result codes DOWN No echo on offline commands Auto answer ON Carrier Detect (CD) normal DOWN Load factory defaults DOWN Smart mode Installing the Modem at the Remote Site...
Telnet Connection The EXTender can be configured using a Telnet session over the existing LAN connection. There is a maximum of four Telnet connections per unit at one time. IMPORTANT: • All IP parameters must be configured before a Telnet session can be established to a unit. •...
HTML Interface The EXTender can be configured using a standard web server over an existing LAN connection. This feature provides the System Administrator complete management capabilities as well as status information for both WAN and PORT connections. IMPORTANT • All IP parameters for the EXTender must be configured before the web server session can be established.

(but there is no link up- in Call Suspend mode or have not dialed it yet). Port LEDs: Solid Green if connected properly to PBX. 10. The Management Interface is now accessible for complete EXTender configuration. 11. Clicking on the LED Definitions in the upper right corner will give you a graphical representation of the LED states and their definitions.
Placing a Call What to verify before placing a call: • The Gateway recognizes ports on the PBX and the EXTender recognizes telephones. The MI should display “RD” (Ready). • The Terminal device is properly configured to meet the requirements of the install.
Down (see note) to problems (green flicker) with the port. Carrier Lost Displayed if the network connection (see note) to the PBX is lost. Connect rejected The system rejects the connection request. Connect Timeout The EXTender cannot connect to PBXgateway.
User ID - If configured, this option assigns an ID that maps the Remote Unit to the correct port on the PBX. The remote user must enter this ID to connect to the Gateway. Active Call Monitoring (Norstar Only) – If enabled, this allows a user, such as an Office Administrator, to monitor users that are on Active Calls as to not disturb them and direct the call to their voice mail.
2 to 1 Configuration RVP_Direct The EXTender Remote Unit communicates with the Gateway installed at the corporate facility. The Gateway can connect to two different EXTender remote units using RVP_Direct to both WAN Ports. The first remote is connected to WAN1 of the Gateway and the second remote is connected to WAN2 of the Gateway.

4. Press the key to access the Remote Number parameter. Set to either 1 or 2. This will differentiate the 2 remotes to the PBXgateway in the 2 to 1 configuration. IMPORTANT NOTE: The Remote Unit connected to WAN 1 of the Gateway MUST be Remote [1]. 5.
RVP_Over_IP When configuring the remote units for 2:1 operation, you need to set the Remote Number. Instead of using the Gateway Port Offset parameter to distinguish ports on each remote the Port User ID’s can be used to determine what ports on the Remote will match up to what ports on the Gateway. Figure 18: User IDs –...
Setting up the Analog Port Note: When using the Analog Port ensure that you selected the correct region using the Setup Wizard (see page 28). The EXTender 6000 may be equipped with an extra RJ-11 port on the back panel. This port is labeled “Analog”...
Setting the Make Set Busy Key (Meridian Only) The MSB (Make Set Busy) key sends a command from the Gateway to the PBX. This command is used to log agents out of the ACD queue in the event of an abnormal disconnect. This prevents ACD agents from receiving calls during a network outage.
Figure 22: MSB Key 2. Press the ↓ key to scroll down to the MSB key parameter. 3. Enter the location of the MSB key on the telephone. 4. Press the ← key to accept changes and go back to the Configuration Menu. 5.
Procedure for Avaya and Meridian (EXTender Configuration) Note: When using an RVP_Direct connection, and Call Suspend is enabled, all ports will have call suspend enabled. If using and RVP_Over_IP connection Call Suspend can be enabled on a port-by-port basis. 1. Access the Call_Suspend Menu using the following path; Path: Remote->Configuration->Connect->RVP_Direct->Call_Suspend Path: Remote->Configuration->Connect->RVP_Over_IP->Default_Port Or for individual ports:...
4. Press the key to the Timeout parameter. This parameter causes the units to go into Call Suspend mode when no activity occurs for the set Timeout value. Set the value between 15 and 240 minutes. 6. (RVP_Over_IP Only) Press the value, in minutes (0 –240) that the EXTender will be connected to the Gateway before falling into Call Suspend.

Procedure for Norstar (EXTender Configuration) 1. Access the Call_Suspend Menu using the following path; Note: When using an RVP_Direct connection, and Call Suspend is enabled, all ports will have call suspend enabled. If using and RVP_Over_IP connection, Call Suspend can be enabled on a port-by- port basis, using individual port values or the <Default>...
Figure 30: 4. Press the key to the Timeout parameter. This parameter causes the units to go into Call Suspend mode when no activity occurs for the set Timeout value. Set the value between 15 and 240 minutes. 5. (RVP_Over_IP Only) Press the value, in minutes (0 –240) that the EXTender will be connected to the Gateway before falling into Call Suspend.
Note: This information applies to Meridian protocols only. Because of an error in the way the Meridian PBX sets up a port with an ATA, you must follow the steps below to get the PBX to properly recognize a digital port.
