3. MAINTENANCE COMMAND INPUT 
Maintenance Terminal Display 
3.01 The maintenance display screen is shown in Figure 3-l. There 
are five distinct and separate areas to the screen: 
1. Status Line : This occupies a single line above the bordered 
area, and displays the time and date, and the system alarm 
status. 
2. Header Line : This occupies the top line within the bordered 
area. It identifies the running software version, and its creation 
date. It also describes which MAINTENANCE menu is currently 
being displayed; one of Main Menu, System, Diagnostics, Traffic 
Measurement, Logs, or Reports. 
3. Applications Area : This occupies the next 12 lines in the 
bordered area. Output information resulting from command in- 
put is displayed in this area. 
4. Command Line: This occupies the line directly below the Ap- 
plications Area. Commands are echoed onto this line as they 
are input by the user. Responses to command input (other than 
data; e.g., error messages) are also returned here. 
5. Softkey Area : The Softkey Area changes dynamically with the 
MAINTENANCE mode (System, Diagnostics, Traffic Measure- 
ment, Logs, or Reports) and identifies the functions of the 
maintenance terminal’s 10 softkeys. The Softkey Area occupies 
the bottom two lines of the bordered area: the first line iden- 
tifies the functions of softkeys 1 through 5; the second line 
identifies the function of softkeys 6 through 10. 
Softkey Presentation 
3.02 Command entry on the SX-200@ DIGITAL PABX is designed to 
make commands easy to use, even for those using the main- 
tenance terminal for the first time. All commands are entered using 
softkeys. “Softkeys” are programmable keys, the functions of which 
may be changed to suit any particular application. The maintenance 
terminal has ‘lo such keys: they are the number keys (1 through 0) on 
the terminal keyboard. The “1” key corresponds to softkey 1 in the 
Softkey Area; all other softkeys are similar. 
Entering of Commands 
3.03 Commands are entered by pressing the desired softkeys in 
sequence, terminating each command sequence with softkey 0, 
the ENTER softkey:Note that pressing the conventional keyboard RE- 
TURN key has the same effect as the ENTER softkey. As softkeys are 
pressed, they are displayed on the Command Line. After the ENTER 
softkey is pressed, the command is processed by the maintenance 
system, and the appropriate response is returned.

Incorrect Command Entry 
3.04 The SX-200’ DIGITAL user interface provides a comprehensive 
set of error messages to inform the user of incorrect command 
entry. While the softkey-oriented command input interface minimizes 
the chance of incorrect command entry, the error messages provide 
concise descriptions of the input error. A summary of the error mes- 
sages with descriptions may be found in Appendix B. 
Non-VT-100 Compatible Terminal Use 
3.05 When using a terminal not compatible with VT-100, softkeys 
are presented as described above, but without the graphic bor- 
dering. Similarly, commands are entered in exactly the same manner. 
Instead of a Title line, the current menu is identified by the command 
input prompt: 
e 
SYS> - System level menu 
0 
DlAG> - Diagnostics level menu 
l TRAFF> - Traffic Measurement menu 
e 
LOGS> - Logs ‘level menu 
e 
REP> - Reports level menu. 
Device Number Parameters 
3.06 Some commands require the inclusion of card/circuit location 
numbers (referred to as physical location identification numbers 
- bay number, slot number, circuit number, sub-circuit number) or 
extension numbers as part of the input. The user is prompted for 
these, one at a time on the Command Line of the screen: 
enter Bay, then press RETURN: 
enter Slot, then press RETURN: 
enter Circuit, then press RETURN: 
enter Sub-circuit, then press RETURN: 
OR 
enter Extension number: then press RETURN: 
When these prompts occur, the softkeys are disabled, and the required 
numbers must be entered in the conventional manner; using the key- 
board number keys and pressing the RETURN key after each entry. 
Note that if a 2-digit number is entered, the RETURN key is not 
required. When all of the required device numbers have been entered, 
the appropriate softkeys will again be presented. 
Note: 
When entering circuit location numbers, the sub-circuit quali- 
fier is often not required, and may be answered by simply 
pressing the RETURN key. The only devices that require sub- 
circuit numbers are Universal card modules such as DTMF 
Receiver Modules and Music-On-Hold/Pager Modules.

Wiid Card Characters 
3.07 Wild card characters may be used to perform some command- 
initiated functions on a range of devices. This is done simply by 
not specifying circuit location numbers when prompted (pressing only 
the RETURN key). For example, entering. Bay 1, but not specifying the 
slot, circuit or sub-circuit would translate to “all circuits on all cards in 
Bay 1”. Note that this does not apply to all commands; refer to the 
individual command descriptions. 
Cancelling a Command 
3.08 The user may cancel any command at any point before entering 
the ENTER softkey; this is done by pressing the CANCEL softkey. 
The effect of this is that any softkeys that were entered and echoed 
back onto the Command Line are now cancelled, leaving the Command 
Line empty and ready for new command input. 
Command Line Correction 
3.09 The user may correct a current command input line before 
entering the ENTER softkey, without having to cancel and enter 
the command over again. This is done by pressing the DELETE key. 
Each time the DELETE key is pressed, the most recently entered soft- 
key or device number is deleted.

4. SYSTEM LEVEL FUNCTIONS 
e 
Introduction 
4.01 The System Level of operation contains a conglomeration of 
commands that are not necessarily maintenance applications, 
but affect maintenance in some way (e.g., the setting of time, date, and 
passwords). To access the system level commands, press the SYSTEM 
softkey. All of the following operations are done while in the System 
-- 
Level. 
Time Setting and Verification 
4.02 The system time-of-day may be set and verified from the 
maintenance terminal. Note that the user may specify the time 
in either 12-hour or 24-hour format by using the PM softkey as 
required. To set the system time from the maintenance terminal, press 
the following softkeys: 
SET 
TIME 
At this point the softkeys are disabled, and the user is prompted to 
press the desired time: 
enter Time HH:MM 
After entering a valid time, the user may implement the new time- 
of-day by pressing the ENTER softkey, or cancel the new time by 
pressing the CANCEL softkey. 
The user may verify the time-of-day by pressing the following soft- 
keys: 
SHOW 
TIME 
ENTER 
Date Setting and Verification 
4.03 The system date may be set and verified from the maintenance 
terminal. To set the system date from the maintenance termi- 
nal, press the following softkeys: 
SET 
DATE 
At this point the softkeys are disabled, and the user is prompted to 
press the desired date: 
enter Date DD/MM/YY 
Page 4-1  
						

							RS-232 Maintenance Terminal 
After entering a valid date, the user may implement the new date by 
pressing the ENTER softkey, or cancel the new date by pressing the 
CANCEL softkey. 
The user may verify the date by pressing the following softkeys: 
SHOW 
DATE 
ENTER 
Terminal/Printer Port Status Report 
4.04 The maintenance u’ser may view the current data characteristics 
of the SX-200@ DIGITAL PABX maintenance terminal and printer 
ports. Information in the reports includes communication speed (baud 
rate), the parity sense (odd, even, or none) and the number of stop bits. 
To view the status of the maintenance terminal port, press the foilow- 
ing softkeys: 
SHOW 
DEVICE 
MAINT-PORT 
ENTER 
To view the status of the printer port, enter the following-softkeys: 
SHOW 
DEVICE 
PRINTER-PORT 
ENTER 
. . 
An example of a status report is shown in Figure 4-I. 
Software Version Report 
4.05 The software version report provides the maintenance user 
with information on the currently running software load. The 
information includes software load iteration number and date of cre- 
ation. To obtain a software version report, press the following soft- 
keys: 
SHOW 
IDENTITY 
ENTER

Password Change 
4.06 It is recommended, for system security, that passwords be 
changed regularly once the SX-200@ DIGITAL PABX has been 
put into service. Password changes may be made by the affected 
username, or any other username with a higher priority (see paragraph 
2.06). A password may be any string of alphanumeric characters of up 
to 20 characters in length (any more characters are ignored). 
Important: Entering new passwords with alphabetic characters will 
make login from the Attendant Console impossible, as 
only numeric characters may be entered from the con- 
sole.
