METHOD OF INTEGRATION
Inband signaling is used for integration. Call forward to personal greeting
is achieved via DTMF signals passed from the Avaya ProLogix / G3 to the
Octel 100 system. Message waiting indicators are set and canceled by
dialing a feature access code followed by the extension number. A hookflash followed by the extension transfers the caller to the operator.

Disclaimer: Configuration Notes are designed to be a general guide reflecting AVAYA Inc.s experience
configuring its systems. These notes cannot anticipate every configuration possibility given the inherent
variations in all hardware and software products. Please understand that you may experience a problem
not detailed in a Configuration Note. If so, please notify the TAC/TSO at (408) 922-1822 and if

Supported PBX Configurations

Confidential

SUPPORTED PBX CONFIGURATIONS

The Avaya Inc Definity G3 Enterprise Communication Server is a state of


the art digital communication Platform with a modular design that grows
with the customers needs. The ProLogix is based on the Definity/CMC
(Compact Modular Cabinet) hardware.
BCS is an offer that has the competencies of G3 such as reliability,
performance, and security; however, it is designed to meet the basic to
midsize telephony market needs. BCS does not support many of the
advanced features of the ProLogix or the Definity G3. For example, DCS
is not available in the BCS Offering.
Definity BCS Issue 4 is based on the R6 software platform. The main
difference between the ProLogix / G3 and BCS is the feature set and the
station circuit packs.
Note: When the local switch communicates with Octel 100 via mode
codes, remote DCS switches are not supported, CVM - Interswitch
Mode Code is supported.
All reference to ProLogix /G3 will include the Definity BCS
unless otherwise noted.

Assign a Station
You can assign a station on the switch for each main attendant. The station
requires a physical port on the switch. A physical voice terminal is not
required. However, if a voice terminal is not attached to the port, the
switch generates a minor alarm. Use the following procedure to assign a
station for a main attendant.
1. Assign a station for the type of available port.
2. Assign the station extension as the incoming destination for the
incoming call trunk groups that will be served by the automated
attendant. If you are not using the automated attendant as an incoming
destination for a trunk group, skip this step and continue with step 3,
and confirm that the Auth Code field is set to n.
3. From the attendant console or administrative voice terminal, activate
Call Forwarding All Calls for the automated attendant extension.
Make the destination the Octel 100 hunt group extension.
Assign a Hunt Group
Assign a new hunt group for the automated attendant if there is not a
physical port available on the switch for a station. The hunt group
forwards calls to the Octel 100 hunt group. Use the following procedure to
assign a hunt group for the automated attendant.
1. Enter add hunt group < hunt group number> on the switch
administration terminal.
2. Set Group Name: to a name that contains the group extension. Use
the group extension as all or part of the group name.
3. Set Group Extension: to the automated attendant extension.
4. Set Group Type: to ucd.
5. Leave the Coverage Path field blank. All calls are forwarded to the
Octel 100 hunt group extension.
6. Set the other fields according to the customer requirements.
7. Set Queue? to y.
8. Assign the numbers of all trunks to the hunt group.
9. Press Enter.
10. Assign the automated attendant group extension as the incoming
destination for incoming call trunk groups served by the automated
attendant.

NIGHT SERVICE TO AUTOMATED ATTENDANT


ADMINISTRATION
You can set up night service to an automated attendant from an incoming
trunk or from a Listed Directory Number (LDN).
From an Incoming Trunk
Use the following procedure to set up night service to an automated
attendant from an incoming trunk.
1. Assign the night automated attendant extension or hunt group number
to the Night Service field on the trunk group form. The nightautomated attendant receives all incoming calls when you activate
night service.
2. Activate Call Forwarding All Calls for the night automated attendant
extension or hunt group number. Set the destination as the Octel 100
hunt group extension.
While the console is in day service mode, calls route as usual according to
the incoming destination on the trunk group form. When the console is
placed in night service mode, calls route according to the night automated
attendant destination identified in the Night Service field.
5.10 FROM A LISTED DIRECTORY NUMBER (LDN)
Use the following procedure to set up night service to an automated
attendant from an LDN.
1. Assign one or more unique extensions on the Listed Directory
Numbers
(LDN) screen. These extensions cannot exist elsewhere in the switch.
For example, assign 1000 as the LDN.
2. For each extension assigned in step 1, assign a name that includes the
night automated attendant extension or hunt group number as part of
the
name. For example, if the night AA number or hunt group number is
1001, use the name night1001.
3. Assign the Octel 100 hunt group extension in the Night Destination
field. From the examples above, this number would be 1001.

When you place the attendant console in day service mode, the LDN acts
as
usual. When you place the attendant console in night service mode, the
system sends calls to the Octel 100 hunt group extension. The Octel 100
system answers calls using the automated attendant that corresponds to the
number in the LDN Name field.
5.11 UNIFORM DIAL PLAN
A unique four- or five-digit number assigned to each station on the
network.
Uniform numbering gives each station a unique number (location code
plus
extension) that can be used at any location in the Electronic Tandem
Network to access that station. DEFINITY ECS enhances the standard
uniform dial plan with the unrestricted 5-digit uniform dial play, which
allows up to five digits to be parsed for call routing.
Enter change dialplan on the command line of your system administration
screen. Usually the hub is considered Node 1.
If the network contains Merlin Legend/Magix systems:
Uniform Dialing Plan field is 4 for each node.
If the network contains only DEFINITY systems:
Uniform Dialing Plan field is 4 or 5.

5.12 CONFIGURING THE AVAYA MERLIN MAGIX / LEGEND


Before you begin programming, it is recommended that a hard copy of the
customer database be obtained to verify existing programming.
Note: Assignment of extensions has two elements, Send and Receive. As
a Sender, an extension can only be assigned to either an extension or a
group. As a Receiver, an extension can be assigned in multiple groups.
An extension number, once assigned to a Calling Group or Line/Pool, is
committed as a Sender. This extension, however, can be used as a
Receiver in other groups.

7.1

UNSUPERVISED TRANSFERS

The ProLogix / G3 does not support unsupervised transfers to busy


stations without busy-call coverage programming. The Octel 100 system
has been enhanced to perform this function. The Octel 100 system will
pull a busy call back and return the caller with the busy prompt. For this
to function, Call Coverage Busy should be set to no in section 5.5
configuring the Subscriber Coverage Path.
7.2
Important notes concerning this
integration

SUPERVISED TRANSFERS

When the Octel 100 system is programmed to perform a supervised transfer for
busy calls and blind transfer, subscriber phones should Ring-No-Answer
forward to VoiceMail only. Set the ProLogix / G3 ring timer to allow for more
rings than the Max Rings setting in the Mailbox Class of Service. Internal
calls will encounter a busy signal when the line is busy. Ring No Answer calls
will forward to the personal greeting. For this to function, Call Coverage Busy
should be set to no in Section 5.5 Configuring the Subscriber Coverage
Path. For proper forwarding of DID calls and tie trunks, external Busy Call
coverage should be set to yes.
If the Octel 100 is programmed to execute a supervised transfer, Hands-free
Announce must be disabled.
Mailboxes used for supervised transfers must have the Class of Service Max
Rings setting of 3 or higher. This may be set in the Edit MailBox window by
making the class of service for one mail box number 0 and using a custom
class of service. Supervised transfers will allow a subscriber to use Octel 100
features that are normally reserved for users in the PARTNER. These
features are Intercom Paging, Call Screening, and Call Queuing.
Subscribers utilizing supervised transfer must agree to the following station
considerations:
Analog single line Subscribers:
Do not assign call coverage to the station. Internal calls to the
station should return busy and internal callers will be required to
log-into their Octel 100 mail box and send messages to the
subscriber.

Multiline Subscribers:
May continue to have coverage, calls to these subscribers will rarely
encounter a busy extension. Coverage Delay should be changed so
that the number of rings (Section 5.3) at the station is greater then
the Octel 100 class of service Max Ring value (Section 6.4.)
7.3

LEAVE WORD CALLING

Note: See section 5.2 and verify MWL ON and OFF Codes.
Leave Word Calling (LWC) provides message notification. If the LWC
feature is being used by the Octel 100 system and other sources (that is,
message centers and station users). Then users without display terminals
must contact their designated message retrievers to determine the source of
their message-waiting lights.
The message return feature cannot be used to retrieve messages when
vectoring is in use. For ease of use, create a speed call number to be used to
retrieve messages. Assign this speed call number to a feature button on the
telephone.
We recommend that only the Octel 100 system be allowed LWC
activation. This will prevent single line telephones from having their
message waiting lamps lit when there are no new messages.
CAUTION: Users with display terminals must not delete any Octel 100
messages on their display. This allows the Octel 100 system
to turn off the message-waiting light when voice messages
are reviewed.
7.4

HARDWARE COMPATIBILITY

Check the availability of analog ports in the ProLogix / G3. The TN746
analog card is a -24v circuit card, which is not supported by Avaya Inc
Octel 100. The Octel 100 port requires a -48v circuit. The ProLogix/G3
can use the TN742, TN746B, TN793, and TN2183 analog circuit packs.
The Definity BCS can use the TN791, TN2215 and TN2793 analog circuit
packs in addition to the above ProLogix / G3 packs.
7.5 AVAYA MODE CODE CONSIDERATIONS:
Avaya Mode Code
Considerations:

Definity BCS does not support the DCS feature. When the local switch
communicates with Octel 100 via mode codes, remote DCS switches are
not supported.
CVM - Interswitch Mode Code is supported. A Definity must be used as a
Host for the Octel 100. Remote sites may be Definity, Merlin Legend /
Magix, NorTel Meridian I, NEC, and Mitel.

7.6 AVAYA OCTEL 100 PORTS SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED


Important notes concerning this
integration

It is highly recommended that Octel 100 ports be distributed among


different port cards and shelves in the ProLogix / G3. This reduces the
possibility that a single card or shelf failure will affect a large number of
Octel 100 ports. Depending on the ProLogix / G3 architecture,
performance could also be an issue on some ProLogix / G3 systems during
high traffic if a large number of calls are being processed on the same card
or shelf. The TN746B / TN791 is an interface between analog voice
terminal lines and the TDM packet bus. The TN746B / TN791 consists of
a ringing application circuit and port input/output circuits. A TN746B /
TN791 supports 16 ports. The TN746B / TN791 allows ringing on 4 ports
of each half of the circuit pack for a maximum of eight simultaneous ports
ringing. In addition, the TN793 and TN2793 are 24 port boards, are divide
into thirds 4 ports of each section ringing for a maximum of twelve
simultaneous ports ringing. A user attempting to ring one section of the
circuit pack when all four ports are busy receives a busy tone from the
ProLogix / G3. Therefore, when assigning analog ports to be used as
appearances for integration, always distribute the voicemail ports across
multiple TN746B / TN791 / TN793 / TN2793 cards.
7.7 RECORD TELEPHONE CONVERSATION CAN BE
SUPPORTED.

Important notes concerning this


integration

In the Host Switch, a Coverage path can be created for Record Telephone
Conversation. The following inband templates must be added:

#02#123#R#
#03#123#R#

GO to Immediate Record
GO to Immediate Record

Digits 123 are example of a coverage group 123. The called party would
interrupt their conversions, perform a hook-flash, and dial 123. The Octel
100 would answer the call and return a beep indicating that recording had
started. The called party would then hook-flash to complete, or complete
the three-way conference. The time for Silence detection may have to be
adjusted to avoid premature voicing of recording menu options.
It will also be necessary to adjust the Recording time in the COS of the
called party to avoid premature voicing of recording menu options.
