Step 7 Install Optional Equipment.
The processor card in the main controller has jacks for the call reporting (SMDR) feature, an
external alert, and a music on hold source (see figure below).
Call Reporting (SMDR) Feature
To take advantage of the call reporting (SMDR) feature that the SPIRIT system offers, you
will need to install a printer. The black jack (labeled SMDR) on the processor card provides
easy identification of where to connect your printer.
Caution. Plugging your printer into any jack other than the black SMDR jack could damage
your printer.
Several models of serial printers are available. The AT&T 475 printer is recommended.
You will need an RS232-to-modular-jack adapter in order to install your printer. If you plan
to plug the adapter directly into the printer, you must use a 355A adapter. If you intend to
plug the adapter into an RS232 cable, you need a 355AF adapter. Both of these adapters
are available from your AT&T representative.
You will also need a D8W Mounting Cord to connect the printer to the controller. If the cord
is over 50 feet long, or if you use an adapter other than a 355A or 355AF your system may
not work (you may not be able to place or receive calls). If you do not have the correct adapter
or appropriate length cord, disconnect the printer until these are obtained.
Plug one end of the D8W cord into the modular jack end of the adapter and the other end into the
SMDR jack on the processor card (see figure below). The printer should be set according to
the following specifications:
Speed: 1200 baud
You may also choose to install a personal computer with appropriate software or specialized
hardware to utilize the call reporting feature. Contact your AT&T representative or dealer for
additional information about these options.
Music on Hold, Loudspeaker Paging, External Alert, Magic on Hold.
NOTE: Users of equipment that rebroadcasts copyrighted music or other materials may be
required to obtain a license from a third party such as ASCAP or BMI.
You may want to install other optional equipment.
The music on hold connector requires an RCA-type phono plug from the music source. The
line level for Music-On-Hold is one volt. A volume control for the music on hold is included
above the music on hold jack on the controller.
A loudspeaker paging system requires connection to a line jack on the controller.
If you are interested in installing optional equipment, contact your AT&T representative or
dealer for additional information.
