Smdi Integration - Toshiba Strata CIX GVPH Programming Manual

SMDI Integration

GVPH enables Simplified Message Desk Interface (SMDI) protocol to provide backplane
integration with Strata CIX40. SMDI is the most efficient way of integrating GVPH with a
telephone system.
SMDI is the only integration available for use with the GVPH and cannot be

changed.
SMDI relies on data, not DTMF, to provide detailed call information that GVPH can quickly use
to direct callers to user's mailboxes. It provides calling party ID (to recognize users calling
from their extensions) so that there is no need to enter their Mailbox Number, only their
security code, to log on to their mailboxes.
Data messages or packets are sent into the system to provide information concerning the
type of call that is ringing into GVPH. GVPH can use this status information to provide better
call coverage and perform custom applications using the RNA and Busy Chain options.
There are four types of incoming packets:
•
A – All Call Forwarded Calls
•
N – No Answer Forwarded Calls
•
B – Busy Forwarded Calls
•
D – Direct Calls
Message Waiting is also enabled and disabled through this link.
An example of an SMDI packet is:
Packet:
MD0010208B0000000205 0000000223
MD001 Message Desk Number. This information is not utilized by GVPH for call processing and is
ignored.
0208 Terminal Number. This is the assigned number or extension number of the port that is
ringing into GVPH.
B Call Status. Defines the type of call that is ringing into GVPH as a Busy Forward call.
0000000205 Number of the Called Extension. Number length is 10 digits. Numbers that are shorter than
10 digits are padded with zeros.
0000000223 Number of the Calling Extension. Number length is 10 digits. Numbers that are shorter than
10 digits are padded with zeros.
The above values are examples and can be different for each installation.
