    indicate that the buffer on the attached device is full, 
    the KCB will not send data. 
    5.7 The APM 52 port will send a logic true ( > + 5V) 
    on pin 6 (Clear to Send) while it is ready to receive 
    data. If the buffer on the APM becomes full, a logic 
    false (< -5V) will be sent. In addition, the APM will 
    monitor pin 1 (Request to Send). The APM will only 
    send data if it receives a logic true ( > + 5V) over pin 
    1. If the APM receives a logic false (< -5V) to indi- 
    cate that the buffer on the attached device is full, the 
    APM will not send data. 
    5.8 TheAPMJlportwillsendalogictrue(> +5V) 
    on pin 1 (Clear to Send) while it is ready to receive 
    data. If the buffer on the APM becomes full, a logic 
    false (< -5V) will be sent. In addition, the APM will 
    monitor pin 6 (Request to Send). The APM will only

    6. If the APM receives a logic false (< -5V) to indi- 
    cate that the buffer on the attached device is full, the 
    APM will not send data. 
    5.9 If using the port on the KCB, the programming 
    terminal and output device must communicate at 300, 
    1200,2400, or 4800 baud. Baud rates are set by placing 
    the DIP switches on the KCB in the desired position. 
    (Ihe location of the switches is shown in Figure 3-16 
    on page 3-31.) 
    5.10 If using the 52 (to DTE) or Jl (to DCE) port on 
    the APM, the programming terminal and output de- 
    vice must communicate at 1200 baud. 
    5.11 Other programming terminal and output de- 
    vice specifications include: 
    l The data format must be 8 bit standard ASCII. 
    l Parity is off (ignored). 
    l Communication is full duplex. 
    l There is one start bit and one stop bit. 
    5.12 For remote programming, the system requires 
    an external, auto-answer modem that is capable of 
    ASCII asynchronous serial data communication. The 
    customer-provided modem is connected directly to 
    an RS-232-C port (either the KCB or an APM) and to 
    an available APM circuit or an available C.O. line (re- 
    fer to INSTALLATION, page 3-48, for details). The 
    programming device must also be equipped with a 
    modem. 
    5.13 The SMDRSAR output device(s) must be 
    able to print reports with a width of either 60 or 80 
    characters. Also, the cable(s) between the device(s) 
    and the KSU must not be longer than 50 feet (15 me- 
    ters). 
    5.14 For save/restore operation, the storage device 
    (e.g., a personal computer) must be capable of storing 
    a minimum of 1OOK bytes of text. All other character- 
    istics are the same as described for the programming 
    terminal. 
    B. 
    SYSTEM BATTERY BACK-UP 
    5.15 
    To provide back-up power in the event of an 
    AC power failure or brownout condition, the 
    GMX-48 System power supplies can have optional 
    battery back-up using the unit designed for the system 
    or using a customer-provided uninterruptable power 
    supply (UPS) unit or standby power supply (SPS) unit. 
    5.16 If installing the battery back-up unit (part no. 
    662.0110) designed specifically for use with the 
    GMX-48 System, complete informationdand installa- 
    tion instructions are included with the unit. 
    5.17 If installing a UPS or SPS unit, it is recom- 
    mended that it have the following characteristics: 
    Sine wave output 
    Transfer time of less than 20 milliseconds 
    Output rating of 365 Watts (minimum) for the 
    662.0100 power supply, 175 Watts (minimum) for 
    the 662.0200 power supply, and 100 Watts (mini- 
    mum) for the 662.0600 power supply 
    Batteries can be external or internal 
    Low voltage cutoff circuit of 105VAC (minimum) 
    NOTE: Even if the power supply unit has the specifi- 
    cations listed above, it cannot be guaranteed that it 
    will work properly with the GMX-48 System. Contact 
    Inter-Tel Customer Support for a listing of approved 
    units. 
    5.18 Batteries connected in series form a “string.” 
    The voltage of the string is equal to the sum of the in- 
    dividual battery voltages. For example, five 6V batter- 
    ies connected in series form a 30V battery pack. If 
    desired, connect two strings in parallel to double the 
    amp/hour rating, which results in longer discharge 
    rates; the voltage level remains the same as a single 
    string.

    Batteries must be fully charged when installed. 
    Charge each individually using a constant-voltage, 
    current-limited charger with less than three percent 
    ripple. The charge voltage per cell must be set accord- 
    ing to the manufacturer’s specifications. Be careful 
    not to damage the batteries by overcharging them. 
    For example, new Globe brand batteries require 25 
    days of float voltage or 25-30 discharge cycles to at- 
    tain full capacity. Initial capacity might only be 80 per- 
    cent of rated capacity. 
    5.20 All batteries should be of the same age and am- 
    pere-hour (AH) rating. Some manufacturers date 
    batteries by stamping them with a date code. For ex- 
    ample, Globe stamps their batteries with a code such 
    as 410-B, where 4 = the last digit of year, 10 = the 
    month, and B = the type of electrolyte. If a battery in 
    a string needs to be replaced, the age of the string will 
    determine if 
    a fresh battery can be added. If the string 
    is two to three years old, adding a fresh battery will 
    reduce the life of the entire string. This is because a 
    fresh battery will be overcharged, while the older bat- 
    teries are undercharged. 
    5.21 Batteries may give off explosive and/or corro- 
    sive gases. To reduce the effects of this gas, place the 
    batteries (or battery compartment) in a room with 
    good ventilation and coat the terminals with an anti- 
    corrosive agent. Avoid storing batteries; they will self- 
    discharge and their capacity decreases with age. If you 
    must store batteries, recharge them every six months. 
    Recharge time may vary depending on the charger’s 
    current limit and the battery’s state of charge. 
    C. 
    DOORBOX 
    5.22 
    For a doorbox application, Inter-Tel recom- 
    mends the Valcom V-2901 Universal Door Answer- 
    ing Unit. This unit, along with the Valcom V-1070A 
    Door Plate SpeakeF, is hooked up to a C.O. circuit on 
    the GMX-48 System. When a person presses a button 
    on the door plate speaker, the unit generates ringing 
    on the C.O. line. By answering the ringing line, a sys- 
    tem user can talk with the person at the door. If the 
    door is equipped with an electric strike plate, the sys- 
    tem user may allow access by dialing a code or press- 
    ing an external button. To call the Valcom doorbox, 
    the system user goes off hook and presses the line key 
    assigned to the unit (or dials the appropriate C.O. line 
    access code). 5.23 In database programming, the C.O. circuit as- 
    signed to the Valcom unit should be programmed as 
    “not subject to toll restrict.” It should alsobe assigned 
    a C.O. line identification name, such as: DOOR 1. 
    5.24 The Valcom door answering unit and talkback 
    speaker can be ordered from a local supply house. In- 
    stallation and operation instructions are included 
    with the unit. 
    D. VOICE MAIL 
    NOTE: 
    Available only in the Intermediate and Ad- 
    vanced 
    software packages. 
    5.25 If desired, an optional single- or multi-port 
    voice mail system can be connected to an APM on the 
    GMX-48 System. Depending on the specific capabili- 
    ties of the voice mail system used, calls can easily be 
    placed, transferred, or forwarded to the voice mail 
    unit. After a message is recorded, a message waiting 
    indication is left at the appropriate station location, 
    and the message can easily be retrieved by the user. 
    5.26 For additional information and for specific 
    voice mail unit recommendations, contact Customer 
    support. 
    E. FAX MACHINE 
    NOTE: 
    Available only in the Intermediate and Ad- 
    vanced 
    software packages. 
    5.27 A facsimile (FAX) machine allows the trans- 
    mission of a picture, drawing, or document over a 
    standard phone line to be reproduced by another ma- 
    chine at the receiving end. This can be an efficient, 
    cost-effective communication tool. 
    5.28 Standard installation procedures for FAX ma- 
    chines involve connecting the machine to a dedicated 
    line for sending and receiving documents. With a 
    GMX-48 System, the FAX facilities are integrated 
    with the telephone system and make use of many of 
    the GMX-48 call processing and money saving fea- 
    tures. Some of the special capabilities that a GMX-48 
    System can add to a FAX installation include the fol- 
    lowing: 
    l Outgoing FAX calls can be placed using automatic 
    route selection (ARS) to make the best use of long 
    .-. 
    distance lines and reduce costs. _:’

    l 
    Incoming FAX calls can ring in directly to a FAX 
    machine or a group of machines, and/or they can 
    be answered by an attendant (human or auto- 
    mated) and transferred to the FAX machine. This 
    allows FAX calls to come in on any line; there is no 
    need for a dedicated line. 
    Multiple FAX machines can be placed in a hunt 
    group or in a “call forward no-answer” chain. In- 
    coming FAX calls can then be sent to a single in- 
    tercom number where they can be processed even 
    if one machine is busy or out of service. 
    When FAX documents are received, a designated 
    operator (keyset station) is notified immediately 
    by a flashing MSG key and a display. Each FAX 
    machine can have a different designated operator. 
    Assigning forced account codes to the FAX sta- 
    tions can prevent unauthorized use of the ma- 
    chines or their telephones. 
    The SMDR and SAR features can help track out- 
    going FAX calls for billing purposes. 
    The GMX-48 System is compatible with standard 
    FAX machines; there are no special require- 
    ments. 
    5.29 A FAX machine can be installed on any unused 
    APM circuit. The circuit is identified as a FAX port 
    and assigned a FAX message center in station pro- 
    gramming. The station can also be placed in a hunt 
    group, assigned incoming and outgoing lines, as- 
    signed a forced account code, assigned a user name, 
    etc. 
    5.30 An example of a FAX installation that uses the 
    automated attendant, hunt group, and message cen- 
    ter features is shown below. In this example: 
    Incoming calls‘are answered by an automated at- 
    tendant. 
    Three FAX machines are connected to APM cir- 
    cuits. 
    The FAX machines are in a hunt group. 
    A 24-line display keyset station is the designated 
    FAX message center for the FAX machines. 0)

    5.31 A call rings in and is answered by the auto- 
    mated attendant. 
    The caller hears a message such as, “Thank 
    you for calling. Dial 1 for Sales, 2 for Service, 
    or 3 to send a FAX.” 
    The caller dials 3. 
    FAX #1 is busy (being used to send or receive a 
    document) so the call goes to the next machine 
    in the hunt group. 
    FAX #2 is out of service and does not answer so 
    the call goes to the third machine in the hunt 
    group. 
    FAX #3 answers the call and receives the FAX 
    transmission. 
    The MSG key at the FAX message center 
    lights and the display shows “MESSAGE RE- 
    CEIVED FROM FAX #3”. 
    The keyset user clears the message 
    by pressing 
    the asterisk (*) key and goes to pick up the 
    transmitted document from the FAX machine. 
    The following example shows the use of ARS, 
    forced account codes, and SMDRISAR records. The 
    FAX circuit has been programmed with ARS-only 
    and a forced account code. 
    (1) 
    (2) 
    (3) 
    (4) 
    (5) Using the FAX machine telephone, the user 
    dials the ARS feature code (default is 80) and 
    the assigned forced account code. 
    The system checks the account code. If it is not 
    valid, the user hears reorder tones. If the code 
    is valid, the user can dial the telephone num- 
    ber of the receiving FAX machine. 
    The system checks ARS and places the call on 
    the selected line. 
    The receiving FAX machine answers and the 
    user transmits the document. 
    The system logs the call and its account code in 
    the SMDR and SAR records.
