NDSS Button Customization [Monitor PBX]
At any extension attached to a monitor PBX, customize a flexible button as an NDSS button for an extension
registered above. Then go off-hook, press this button once, and go on-hook again. This activates the
monitoring function. The monitored PBX will begin to transmit information about the status of that extension,
and the monitor PBX will begin to receive the information. The button light will display the status of the
extension connected to another PBX.
Removing or Editing a Registered Extension [Monitor PBX]
To monitor a new extension when 250 extensions are already being monitored, it is necessary to remove
the registration of an existing extension.
The NDSS Monitor Release feature is used to stop monitoring a certain extension. When this feature is
performed at a monitor PBX:
•
If no other PBXs are monitoring the selected extension, the monitored PBX stops transmitting status
information for that extension.
•
The monitor PBX stops receiving status information for the selected extension. All NDSS buttons for
that extension stop displaying status information.
However, the related information is not deleted from the Network Monitor Extensions Table. Therefore, if
an extension user at a monitor PBX subsequently goes off-hook and presses the NDSS button for that
extension, monitoring will be reactivated. To completely remove monitoring of an extension, the registration
data must also be deleted from the Network Monitor Extensions Table at each monitor PBX.
The monitor destination of each NDSS button is determined by the registration information for a particular
index number in this table. Therefore, if the registration information for an index number is changed (for
example, the Network Extension Number assigned to Index No. 001 in the example above is changed from
"2001" to "4002"), any NDSS buttons that have been set for that extension will automatically point to the
new monitor destination.
