DID Allocator User and Installation Guide Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction
DID Allocator is a supplement to the Medical Center System (MCS) that makes it 
possible for hospital admitting personnel to retrieve DID telephone numbers from 
the MCS database.  With DID Allocator, obtaining a DID number for a new patient 
is a simple matter of pressing a function key on the D
term.  In response, DID 
Allocator accesses the MCS database of DID numbers, retrieves the next available 
one on the list, and displays it on the D
term LCD panel.  Admitting personnel have 
only to accept the number and enter it into the patient’s record or to reject the 
number.
Once a DID number has been accepted, it is placed into “Offered and Accepted” 
status in the MCS database.  Only after the DID number has been implemented by 
the PBX is it considered to be in “Active” status.
Here’s How it Works
Installation
This guide provides specific field entries that need to be made during the 
installation and configuration of DID Allocator.  In addition to this guide, use 
instructions in the following manuals for this installation:
Applications Manager (APM) Installation Manual — Contains step-by step 
instructions for installing the software from the release media.
Applications Manager (APM) Operations Manual — Explains how 
applications like DID Allocator are configured in the APM environment using 
the entries and values provided in this chapter.
NEAX2400 System Manuals — Give very detailed explanations about the 
assignments that need to be made through the Maintenance Administration 
Terminal (MAT) commands on the NEAX2400.
Your Action Dterm Response
Press the Dterm function key that is assigned to DID 
Allocator.An available DID number is displayed on the Dterm 
LCD panel, followed by the notation “ACCEPT?”
 To accept the displayed DID number:
Press 1#.  (Then enter the accepted DID number 
to the patient record.)
 To cancel the DID request:
Press 0#, the function key assigned to DID 
Allocator, or nothing.  If you do not press a key, 
DID Allocator will time-out and reject the 
number.If the number is accepted, DID Allocator marks it 
as offered and accepted.  If the number is not 
accepted,  the number remains available.  After the 
transaction, DID Allocator clears the D
term display.
Note:
If any entry other than 1# or 0# is made, DID 
Allocator displays the message “1=YES 
0=NO” and awaits a correct entry.

Introduction DID Allocator User and Installation Guide
The installation and set up of DID Allocator involves the following sequence of 
steps:
Software Installation — DID Allocator software must first be loaded from the 
release media.  Log into the APM Platform Management Menu, select the 
Installation of Applications/Packages option, and follow the instructions 
provided in the APM Installation Manual to complete this part of the 
installation.
Application Configuration — DID Allocator is internally supported by the 
APM and must be configured in the APM environment.  Application 
Configuration provides the information that must be entered into this APM 
configuration file.  Use the instructions provided in the APM Operations 
Manual to make the entries contained in this section.  
Note:
DID Allocator version 1.2 uses the autocfg (autoconfiguration) APM utility pro-
gram to automatically configure DID Allocator under the APM platform.  This 
program runs upon installation.  If you have previously installed DID Allocator, 
the autoconfiguration utility enables you to overwrite the previous configuration 
information.
MAT Assignments — Several data settings must be assigned at the NEAX2400 
Maintenance Administration Terminal (MAT) before DID Allocator will 
function.  Mat Assignments specifies the necessary  commands and the values 
at which they are to be set.  Use the instructions provided in the NEAX2400 
IMS System Manuals to make the entries contained in this section.
