Station screen
After you have administered the BRI data module, use the Station screen to
associate it with a voice station to screen a multimedia complex. This is a
one-to-one relationship: you can administer only one station and one data
endpoint per multimedia complex. Neither the voice station, nor the data endpoint
can be a member of another multimedia complex.
NOTE:
A BRI station cannot be part of a multimedia complex.
■ H.320 Conversion — Valid entries are y and n (default). This field is
optional for non-multimedia complex voice stations and for Basic
multimedia complex voice stations. It is mandatory for Enhanced
multimedia complex voice stations. Because the system can only handle a
limited number of conversion calls, you may need to limit the number of
telephones with H.320 conversion. Enhanced multimedia complexes must
have this flag set to y.
For non-multimedia complex voice stations, setting this field to y allows
H.320 calls to convert to voice and alert at the stand-alone voice station. If
the call is unanswered at the voice station, the call will follow standard
voice treatment. Any subsequent station that is reached in the routing of
this call, that is, coverage points, forwarded destinations, call pickup
members, and so forth, do not need to have the H.320 field enabled. The
H.320 field is only needed at the
first
station that may receive the H.320
call.
For Basic multimedia complex voice stations, setting this field to y allows
H.320 calls to convert to voice and alert at the Basic multimedia complex
voice station
after
an attempt has been made to offer the call to the H.320
DVC system. If the call is unanswered at the H.320 DVC system, the call
will alert at the voice station after 5 seconds or after the administered
number of rings as specified in the voice station’s coverage path. If the call
is unanswered at the voice station, the call will follow standard voice
treatment. Any subsequent station that is reached in the routing of this call,
that is, coverage points, forwarded destinations, call pickup members, and
so forth, do not need to have the H.320 field enabled. The H.320 field is
only needed at the
first
station that may receive the H.320 call.
■ Service Link Mode — The service link is the combined hardware and
software multimedia connection between an Enhanced mode complex’s
H.320 DVC system and the DEFINITY ECS which terminates the H.320
protocol. A service link is never used by a Basic mode complex H.320
DVC system. Connecting a service link will take several seconds. When
the service link is connected, it uses MMI, VC and system timeslot
