Installing And Programming The Tracker Paging System On The DXP Plus Digital Communications System 1.0 Introducing The Tracker Paging System The Tracker Paging System consists of a Tracker base station interfaced through the DXPPlusdigital communications system to communicate with one or more Tracker pagers (personal pocket pagers) associated with the system’s station ports. This option gives the system the capability to signal system station users when they are away from their telephones that they have a waiting call. The system supports a maximum of 600 Tracker pagers and four base stations. You can install a Tracker base station to a serial data port supplied by a communications card installed in the DXPPlus. At sites that include a PC attendant position, you can connect the Tracker base station directly to the PC attendant position computer. With this arrangement if a Tracker user has an alphanumeric pager model, he or she can receive a short text message from the PC attendant position. 2.0 Installing The Tracker Paging System Use the Tracker cable kit to interconnect the Tracker Paging System with the DXPPlusor the PC attendant position. The cable kit includes the factory-wired items described in the following list: ·modular to EIA 25-pin adapter plug with male DB25 Connector, ·modular to EIA 25-pin adapter plug with female DB25 Connector, ·custom-wired six-position modular line jack (not required with PC attendant position installations), ·3-pair standard line cord. When using the kit-supplied parts to make the system interconnections, be aware of the location parameter detailed in the statement that follows: ·The maximum distance between the Tracker base station and the common equipment cabinet is limited to 50 feet regardless of which DXPPluscircuit board provides the communications card or where the PC attendant position is located . Longer distances require the use of limited distance modems.

2.2 Installing A Tracker Base Station With The DXPPlus 1. Install the kit-supplied modular jack and wire it to any DXPPlusserial data port supplied by a communications card. Use customer-supplied cabling for this wiring path. CAUTION You must use the kit-supplied modular jack as it provides customized wiring necessary for proper equipment operation. 2. Select the kit-supplied, modular to EIA adapter with the male DB25 connector, and connect it to the 25-pin serial data connector on the rear of the Tracker base station, and secure it with the thumbscrews provided. 3. Plug one end of the kit-supplied modular line cord into the modular to EIA adapter. 4. Plug the other end of the cord into the kit-supplied modular jack that you installed in step 1. 5. Connect the power supply output cable to the rear of the Tracker base station. a. Plug the AC power cable from the power supply into a 120 VAC wall outlet. b. Turn on the base station’s power switch. 6. Refer toSection 3for details, and make the necessary programming arrangements: —program the system serial data port parameters, Baud Rate 9600, Data Bits 8, Stop Bits 1, Parity none, Flow Control none, —enable the Tracker Paging System, —assign a pager number to a system intercom number, —program the pager types, —enable the pagers for operation.

3.0 Programming For The Tracker Paging System There are three levels of programming associated with Tracker operation. The system level, is done by the installer or system programmer when he or she performs the data base programming. This programming level installs Tracker operating parameters and the pager-to-intercom assignments that can only be changed by the system installer. The PC attendant position level is done by an attendant from an installed PC attendant position. The PC attendant position operates in one of two modes—local or system. In the local mode, the attendant assigns pagers to intercoms and selects pager types. This programming is transparent to the DXPPlussystem and does not alter any installer programming done at the system level. In the system mode, the PC attendant position monitor displays all installer-programmed Tracker operating parameters and pager-to-intercom assignments. The system manager level is done from the system programming station. The system manager dials codes to enable or disable the Tracker Paging system. 3.1 Performing Tracker Paging System Programming 3.1.1 Programming Tracker Paging System Options Description:Tracker Paging System options consist of selecting the serial port that you will use for connecting the base station, enabling or disabling Tracker Paging System operation, and selecting PC Attendant 1 through 4.

From Tracker menu, select Options and press ENTER. 5. Enter Tracker Paging System base station number (1 through 4) and press ENTER. 6. From tracker unit options menu, select the serial port where the Tracker base station will be connected (1 through 18) and press ENTER. 7. Toggle the second field with the SPACE bar to enable/disable the Tracker Paging System option and press ENTER. 8. Toggle the third field with the SPACE bar to select PC Attendant 1 through 4 (or none) and press ENTER. 9. When finished, press ESCAPE twice. 10. Type y to accept changes, n to reject them, or r to resume editing and press ENTER. 11. Press ESCAPE to end. NOTE: After you have enabled the Tracker paging system and saved your programming selections, the DXP Plus system connects with the Tracker base station and displays the following message: Initializing TRACKER unit, please wait... If the Tracker base station is correctly installed and operational, the DXP Plus system then displays the following message: Installation complete, TRACKER is on line If, however, the Tracker base station is not installed or fails to connect, the DXP Plus system displays the following message: Installation error, verify programming or installation Installing And Programming The Tracker Pager System IMI89–203 6–Tracker Paging System
