System Programming and Maintenance PC
You can use a PC with MS-DOS® version 3.3 or higher and System Programming
and Maintenance (SPM) software to program and maintain the system. Beginning
with version 4.25, required for Release 4.1 systems, SPM runs as a DOS
application under Windows 95. The PC connects to the ADMIN jack on the
processor module. For additional information, see System Programming or
contact your Lucent Technologies representative.
Loudspeaker Paging Systems
Loudspeaker paging systems use a ground-start/loop-start (GS/LS) line jack. Up
to three loudspeaker paging systems can be attached to the control unit. You can
program up to three line ports as paging ports. If you connect a paging system
other than PagePac Plus, you must also install a Universal Paging Access Module
(UPAM) or Loop-Start Trunk Adapter.
If a loop-start line jack is used for paging, you cannot use it for outside calls unless
you install a PagePac Port Saver.
PagePac Plus Loudspeaker Paging System from Lucent Technologies does not
require an adapter. The PagePac controller comes equipped with 8 built-in zones,
expandable to as many as 48 zones with 16-zone zone expansion modules.
PagePac Plus also provides a music source for paging and Music On Hold
without a music coupler.
Dial Dictation
You can use a dictation unit as either a system or extension adjunct. Some
dictation units connect directly to the control unit via a T/R jack on the 012, 016
(Release 4.0 and later) module or 008 OPT module, or to a telephone using an
MFM or a GPA. Other dictation units connect to a PagePal unit Universal Paging
Access Module (UPAM) that connects to a loop-start port programmed for dial
dictation (similar to loudspeaker paging).
Fax Machines
Most industry-standard fax machines work with the system. You can connect a fax
machine to the control unit via a T/R jack on the 012 or 016 (Release 4.0 and
later) T/R module or to an MFM. Using a fax machine with a GPA is not
recommended because the fax machine cannot dial through the GPA. You can
use a fax machine as an MLX telephone adjunct if you use it with an MFM.
A fax machine originates and receives fax calls independently of any associated
telephone. You can dial calls from the fax machine's dialpad or from an
associated single-line telephone.
If the system does not have DID trunks, you should program fax extensions to
personal lines. When the system has DID service, it can direct incoming calls
automatically to individual fax extensions or to machines in calling groups.
