ANI/DNIS Display
Software 11B adds the ANI/DNIS display feature. Automatic Number Identification (ANI) describes a
code delivered by the subscriber service along with an incoming call. ANI identifies the number that the
caller calls from. Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS) also describes a code delivered by the
subscriber service; however, DNIS identifies the number that the caller dialed.  Systems can make use of
these two services in different ways. One use is to show the ANI or DNIS...

PCIU/Visual Call Manager Support
Beginning with software release 11B you can use the Personal Computer Interface Unit (PCIU) to operate
the Visual Call Manager (VCM) capability of the Versatile Voice Processing (V.V.P.) voice mail system.
VCM provides a series of computer-displayed menus that V.V.P. users can use to simultaneously view
and manage voice message activity. By using a series of PC screen menus, users click their computer
mouse to send, forward, save, delete, and listen to voice mail messages...

Phone Types Enhancement

you or your installer will connect to each station port.
Beginning with software 11B, the digital communications system supports the installation of an
integrated voice processing board as a digital station type selection. The model number of the Comdial

Restricted Login
Software release 11B, provides upward and backward compatibility between the different revisions of the
VMMI programming software and the software of the system being programmed. This compatibility is
for certain critical features and is known as restricted login. For example, restricted login permits
programmers to use 11A VMMI software to execute certain programming features on an 11B system or
use 11B VMMI software on 10A systems.  Restricted login permits the programming of the...

System Software Upgrade Enhancement
Beginning with software release 11B, digital communications system installers no longer need to accept
an automatic save of an existing database during a system software upgrade. Installers can choose to
maintain the existing data base by first archiving the data base, then upgrade the software, and finally
restore the database after the upgrade is complete. Alternately, installers can choose to allow the system
to clear the existing database with the master clear...

Visual Voice Mail Support
Visual Voice Mail (VVM) support provides proprietary, two-line display LCD speakerphone stations
with visual messages and interactive buttons. This message and button functionality enhances the stations
with visual messages and interactive buttons. This message and button functionality enhances the
station’s use with Comdial Versatile Voice Processing (V.V.P.) voice mail equipment.
The V.V.P. prompts the user to enter a password (if programmed to require one) before it plays the...

Upgrading The DXP Plus Software
The DXPPlusdigital communications system includes system software when it ships from the factory.
At initial system installation, you do not need to load the system software to make the system operational.
Should you need to later reload the system software (for software up-grade purposes for example), you
can do so using the supplied system software disk. Use Windows File Manager or MS–DOS commands
to save the disk’s information from your computer’s floppy drive to its...
