Figure 2-1 Hicom 150 E OfficePro Rel 1.1 "Extended Line"/Rel2.2 System Env.

2.2.2 Hardware Overview

Hicom 150 E OfficePro Rel 1.1 "Extended Line" is an expanded version of Hicom 150 E OfficePro. It basically differs from OfficePro Rel 1.0/2.0 as follows:

Expanded from 250 to 384 stations.
Uses new basic and expansion cabinets with more slots.
Uses the new SLA24N peripheral board with 24 ports for connecting analog stations.

The system continues to be expandable to maximum three cabinets.
The new basic cabinet is equipped with a modified backplane that increases the number of possible slots for subscriber line/LTG modules from 6 to 7. For the purpose of expansions, each expansion cabinet is equipped with 8 slots for subscriber line/LTG modules. When two expansion cabinets are used, a total of 23 slots are available for boards. All the slots have an installation width of 30 mm with the exception of slot 7 in the basic cabinet (45 mm).

When the SLA24N subscriber line module is installed, analog systems can also be expanded to maximum 56 trunk connections and 384 stations.

The HDLC addresses for the expansion cabinets are the same for both cabinets. For this reason, each expansion cabinet must be connected to a separate HDLC highway. The slots in the basic cabinet are assigned to HDLC highway 0. Because HDLC highway 0 runs parallel to expansion cabinet 2 and the basic cabinet, the basic cabinet is assigned its own collision-free HDLC addresses.

The PCM links in the basic cabinet for slots 1 to 6 retain the same distribution as in Release 1.0. Slot 7 in the basic cabinet, which has been added with Rel 2.2, is connected in parallel to slots 5 and 6. No more than two S2M boards can be installed in these slots. Only four B channels are then available for the third slot (for example, TIEL).

In each of the expansion cabinets, two PCM highways are routed to two adjacent slots in both cabinets. This means that in a three-cabinet system, 64 B channels are available for each of the four slots.

The cabling between the basic and expansion cabinets is arranged in a star topology.

Figure 2-2 shows the HDLC and PCM connections between the cabinets.

2.2.5.1 Notes on the CR8 Board

The CR 8 (code receiver) board can be inserted as an option in all the cabinets and all the slots. This allows the number of code receivers in the system to be expanded from 6 to maximum 22 (making it possible to use analog, tone-dialing telephones), corresponding to 8 code receivers per board used. A maximum of 2 CR 8 boards can be used for each system.

 
A -CR 8 board must be used if the following restrictions are encountered when a large number of analog interfaces is used: 
Delayed connection of announcement/dial tone for DTMF DID
Delayed dial tone connection (provision of code receiver)

2.2.5.2 Notes on the TMAMF Board

The TMAMF (trunk module analog for multifrequency code signaling) board has 8 trunks for analog direct inward dialing. It supports the MFC-R2 (=default), MFC-R2 with caller ID, DTMF and DP signaling methods.
This application is possible only with Hicom 150 E OfficePro Rel 1.1 "Extended Line"/ Rel 2.2.

2.3.4 Hardware Overview

Hicom 150 E OfficePro Rel 1.0/2.0 (and Rel 2.2 in the U.S.) is a modular system that customer can expand by adding boards or cabinets for up to 250 subscriber line circuits. An additional cabinet is referred to as an expansion cabinet. A Hicom 150 E OfficePro system can have a maximum of three cabinets.

Figure 2-10 shows a Hicom 150 E OfficePro system with a basic cabinet, two expansion cabinets, and a main distribution frame (MDFU-E, not for U.S.).

Note: In the U.S., the customer supplies a main distribution frame (MDF).

Figure 2-10 OfficePro with Expansion Cabinets and MDF

Slot Assignments:

Basic Cabinet

The slots are assigned as follows:

Slot 1: CBMOD processor board
Slot 8: PSUI power supply module
Slots 2-7: Peripheral boards

Note (not for U.S.):

All peripheral boards can be plugged into slots 5-7.
The TML8W board cannot be inserted with a GEE8 module in slots 2-4 due to its narrow installation width.

Expansion Cabinets

The slots are assigned as follows:

Slot 1:
For the system with one expansion cabinet, slot 1 remains free.
For the system with two expansion cabinets, the CONBO board must be installed in expansion cabinet 1; slot 1 in expansion cabinet 2 remains empty.
Slot 8: PSUI power supply module

Figure 2-11 OfficePro Rel 1.0/2.0 (and Rel 2.2 in the U.S.)-Slots

2.3.5 Central Components

The central components of the Hicom 150 E Office Rel 1.0/2.0 (and Rel 2.2 in the U.S.) system are:

CBMOD board
CONBO board
PSUI power supply module
USVI (or UPSM) (not for U.S.).

2.3.5.1 CBMOD

All central control and switching functions are implemented on the CBMOD board. The following modules can be plugged in the corresponding slot on the CBMOD:

CGM
The clock generator module is required if a higher level of clock precision is needed for digital tie traffic, main CS/satellite CS operation, or a CMI application (not for U.S.). For other applications, the clock generator on the CBMOD is sufficient.
Flash card
This plug-in memory card (PCMCIA format) contains the appropriate release-specific system software (APS). Customer data is automatically saved on the flash card every twenty-four hours.
IMOD modem card
This optional plug-in modem card (PCMCIA format) implements remote administration and maintenance without an external modem. Protocol used: V32bis (14.4 Kbps).

In the event of a power failure, all the RAM contents and the function of the real-time clock (RTC) are retained for approximately 100 hours. A maintenance-free lithium battery makes such data retention possible. The charging time at initial activation is approximately 24 hours.

2.3.5.2 CONBO

The CONBO board is required for the installation of a 3-cabinet system. To connect the second expansion cabinet to the Hicom 150 E system, the CONBO board must be installed in slot 1 in expansion cabinet 1. When a 2-cabinet system is upgraded to a 3-cabinet system, the original expansion cabinet 1 becomes expansion cabinet 2, and the new cabinet with the CONBO board becomes expansion cabinet 1.

2.3.5.3 PSUI

The PSUI board is the power supply module. Each cabinet must have its own power supply module.

PSUI is used in all countries. The ring frequency and ring voltage of the integrated ring generator can be adjusted to country-specific requirements.

Technical Specifications:

Voltage range: 88 Vac-264 Vac (not for U.S.); 120 Vac (for U.S. only)
Power consumption: Maximum 310 W without UPSI, maximum 424 W with UPSI
Nominal frequency: 50/60 Hz (tolerance-47 to 63 Hz) (not for U.S.);
AC line frequency-60 Hz (for U.S. only)

Ring Generator:

Nominal output voltage: 60/75 V eff
Output frequencies: 20/25/50 Hz

2.3.5.4 USVI (Not for U.S.)

In combination with the PSUI, a USVI provides emergency battery power in the event of a power failure.

In the maximum configuration, a USVI cabinet (with the same design as the Hicom 150 E Office cabinets) contains two complete, independent USVI units. Each of these units can supply power to one Hicom 150 E Office cabinet and has the following components (see Figure 2-24 on page 2-50):

Battery manager board (charging circuit and control electronics)
Battery set board (comprising 4 maintenance-free, 12 V lead storage batteries)
Connecting cable (length: 1.4 m) between the PSUI and battery manager. The battery manager does not require separate power connection.

Additional capabilities:

You can double the bridging time by connecting two battery sets in parallel using suitable cables.

Instead of the internal battery set, you can also connect an external 48 V battery array with a connecting cable.

Diagrams of the connection types can be found on pages 2-14 through 2-16.

Technical Specifications:

USVI in normal mode
Input voltage (from PSUI): Approximately 380 Vdc (maximum 0.27 A)
Output voltage (charging voltage for batteries): 54 or 55.2 Vdc (maximum
1.6 A)
Power failure mode
Input voltage (from battery): 48 V (42 to 56 Vdc)
Output voltage (to PSUI): 340 Vdc, maximum 1.1 A
Nominal capacity of battery set: 7 or 12 Ah per battery set
Bridging time with maximum configuration: 80 minutes (50 minutes with 7 Ah battery set) (see Table 2-10 on page 2-42)

2.3.5.5 UPSM (Not for U.S.)

This board integrates the power supply and battery manager functions. No other components are required if operated on a network. Hicom 150 E OfficePro uses one UPSM per cabinet.

To maintain short-term battery emergency operation after a power failure, that is, to use uninterruptible power supply functions, you must also connect the following:

One battery pack per system cabinet or
One external charging rectifier with battery (for example,SYSKAB) or
One 48 Vdc network system

A cumulative LED indicates the presence of all necessary secondary voltages. The UPSM must be replaced if it breaks down. All country variants use the UPSM. The ring frequency of the modular ring generator is adjustable, depending on the country-specific functions required.

Technical Specifications

Input voltage range: 88 Vac to 264 Vac
Input current range: 5.4 A to 2.7 A
Maximum power consumption: approximately 430 W
Nominal frequency: 50/60 Hz (tolerance: 47 to 63 Hz)

2.3.7 Additional System Data

2.3.7.1 Heat Dissipation and Power Consumption

Figure 2-12, Figure 2-13, and Figure 2-14 show the heat dissipation and power consumption values of one cabinet under various operating conditions. When UPSI is used, the specifications for each cabinet must be taken into consideration with the battery manager.

Figure 2-12 Cabinet Without UPSI-Power Consumption and Heat Dissipation

Figure 2-13 Cabinet with UPSI-Power Consumption and Heat Dissipation (Normal Mode) (Not for U.S.)

Figure 2-14 Cabinet with UPSI-Power Consumption and Heat Dissipation (During Power Failure) (Not for U.S.)

2.3.7.2 Specifications for the Uninterruptible Power Supply (Not for U.S.)

The central control board of the basic cabinet determines the system's bridging time. The specifications for bridging times apply under the following conditions:

Utilization of a new, fully charged battery at a room temperature of 23°
Constant load conditions
Failure of any power supply.....

Figure 2-15 USVI with the Hicom 150 E Office System (Not for U.S.)

Note: A failure of the power supply (battery set, battery manager, PSUI, or UPSM) can affect the functioning of the entire system.

Table 2-9 presents the bridging time for the USVI/UPSM as a function of the number of telephones connected. For more information, refer to the Electronic Service Manual..

The parallel connection of two battery sets, by means of cables, doubles the bridging time. The recharging time is longer because the battery manager must feed two battery sets (see Figure 2-26). To feed another expansion cabinet requires an additional USVI cabinet.

Note: The two battery sets must be of the same type and produced by the same manufacturer. The connecting cable between the battery sets must be ordered separately.

Figure 2-16 Connecting Two Battery Sets in Parallel (Not for U.S.)

 

The USVI provides an adequate bridging time in most power failure situations.
 

2.3.7.3 External Battery Connection Kit (Not for U.S.)

The External Battery Connection Kit connects external batteries to the battery managers (see Figure 2-17). The use of large batteries increases the bridging time. The connection kit comprises mounting clamps and battery cable connections. It is installed on the backplane of the USVI cabinet and connected to one or both battery managers by a battery cable. Because the maximum charging capacity for the battery managers is 12 Ah, in most cases an additional battery charger is required for the external battery. The battery and charger must be supplied locally.

2.7 Hicom Cordless EM V 2.2 (Not for U.S.)

Introduction

Hicom Cordless EM V 2.2 is the integrated radio switching module for the communication system Hicom 150 E OfficePro Rel 1.0 and later and Hicom 150 E OfficeCom Rel 2.0 and later. It provides cordless communication with the support of a series of convenient station and system features. The flexible system architecture and the digital radio transmission procedure (based on the DECT/GAP standard) give users a high degree of mobility and continuous availability in buildings and large premises. Roaming and handover enable users to move from one radio cell to another within the area covered by a Hicom system.

The system architecture is based on an integrated radio switching module and base stations connected to the Hicom 150 E Office system through digital interfaces. The system is fully integrated into the existing administration and maintenance of the communication system, making Hicom very easy to service EM V 2.2.

Up to 16 base stations (radio cells) can be connected to the radio switching module (SLC16 board) by four-wire lines. The base stations provide radio coverage to premises and buildings.

Users use their handsets to access the radio network. They can move freely in the area (handover), and have access to the Hicom communication system and to the trunk or to all PABX stations.

Hicom cordless 150 E is based on the DECT Standard. DECT (Digital European Cordless Telecommunications) is a European standard with a digital basis (1880 to 1900 MHz) that provides superior voice quality within a defined service area.

Note: Version 1.0 base stations and handsets cannot be used in Version 2.2.

Components of the Hicom Cordless EM V 2.2

SLC16-integrated radio switching module as a system board (maximum 1)
Base stations (maximum 16)
Mobile units (handsets)-maximum 64 (maximum 64 simultaneously active calls, with 4 or 8 per base station)
Chargers (optional)-any number

2.16.2 System Administration from a System Telephone

All systems in the Hicom 150 E Office product family can be fully administered from the system administration telephone at the first two digital ports in the system. The system administration functions include user data and system data.

2.16.2.1 Hicom Assistant TC (User Data)

Customers can use the Assistant TC to define minor system settings (non-sensitive data), such as configuring speed-dialing destinations, and assigning names to stations and trunks. Customers choose the service menu with a password.

2.16.2.2 Hicom Assistant T (System Data)

Only trained system administrators can access the system data, by choosing the service menu and entering a password. They can define from a system telephone (the first two digital ports in the system) all system settings (with a few exceptions) and make changes on-site.

With the introduction of the national model of Hicom 150 E Office, internal station numbers can also be changed in Assistant T.

2.16.3 System Administration Tools

The Hicom Assistant E service tool enables you to customize and modify large volumes of data or set specific system data. The tool has a Windows interface and online Help, and requires the Microsoft Windows® 95 and later operating system.

The Hicom Assistant C customer tool is a version with limited functions.

You can use Hicom Assistant E and Assistant C to access the system in the following ways:

ISDN adapter on the system telephone (64 Kbps B-channel access)
V.24 (RS-232) interface on the system (9600/19200 baud)
Internal S0 bus (64 Kbps/CAPI 2.0)
Remote access over an ISDN trunk (64 Kbps B-channel access)
Remote access over an analog trunk (integrated 14400 baud modem)

To reduce transmission time, access by means of the ISDN B channel is preferred.

2.16.3.1 Hicom Assistant E Service Tool

The service tool contains the following function blocks:

Acquiring and generating customer data (including off-line generation)
Copying and backing up customer data
Loading system software
Displaying stored error messages with error history
Service orders, such as restarting boards
Resetting activated features
Generating:
Key labels for optiset E telephones
Customer data printouts
Main distribution frame layout

The online mode is intended to carry out minor changes quickly. It resembles the functionality of the user interface on the system telephone (Hicom Assistant T) and enables you to make immediate changes in the system.

Because sensitive system data may be accessed, using the service tool requires training.

2.16.3.2 Hicom Assistant C Customer Tool

The customer tool enables customers to perform system administration functions from a PC. The user interface and the online Help were adapted from the service tool.

Running the customer tool requires a Pentium PC with an S0 card (support of S0 boards with CAPI 1.1) and the Windows 95 and later operating system. For mobile applications, a notebook with a PC card-based S0 card can also be used.

The customer tool connects to the system through the optiset E ISDN adapter on an optiset E telephone or via an internal S0 bus. This connection provides direct access by means of the internal S0 bus and offers fast ISDN data transmission.

The customer tool can also connect to the system by means of the V.24 (RS-232) interface.

2.16.4 Hardware Requirements for the PC

To run the Hicom Assistant E and Hicom Assistant C service tools, the PC must meet the following hardware requirements:

2.16.5 Password Identification and Authentication (Rel 2.0 and Later)

For all local and remote administration and maintenance access from Hicom
Assistant E, Hicom Assistant T, and AMHOST, the system identifies the users by name and authenticates them by their passwords. Up to 16 users can be assigned their own user IDs, passwords, and one of 6 predefined user groups.

When a user logs on for the first time, the system asks for the user's identity and a new password. This user is automatically assigned to the system maintenance user group and receives a message from Hicom Assistant E. The message states that no users have yet been set up in the system and the system administration rights will be assigned. The first user can then set up additional users and passwords. (This specification applies to Hicom Assistant T and Hicom Assistant TC, such as
AMHOST, and does not apply to existing key and code procedures for programs.)

2.16.5.1 General Rules and Conditions

Hicom Assistant E, Hicom Assistant T:

Multiple users can be assigned to each user group.
A user can be assigned to only one user group.
The password appears on the screen in the form of asterisks.
You can check the password in the system only by pressing <Enter>.
The system logs each failed logon attempt as invalid and ends the logon procedure.
If the last authorized user forgets the administrator's password, the system must be regenerated.
The values assigned to the characters are from the optiset E character set.
Names and passwords cannot be more than 16 characters long.

Hicom Assistant E:

Setting up, modifying, and deleting users take place online (you must be connected to the system).
Each time you log on, the system shows the last time you configured your password and the last time you used your user ID.
When users forget their passwords, another authorized user must delete and set them up again.
Although all customer database (CDB) data is always transferred to the service PC, Hicom Assistant displays only the data that can be read and administered according to the user rights.

2.16.5.2 Password Concept

Hicom Assistant E Password Concept

Because the password levels are handled in different ways, it is possible to distinguish between Hicom 150 E Office Rel 1.0 (or earlier) and Rel 2.0 at Hicom Assistant E startup.

If you leave the user name field blank, the Release 1.0 password requirement applies, and you must enter the usual password. If you enter a user name, Hicom Assistant E switches to Hicom 150 E Office Release 2.0 mode. When you log on to the system, the user table in the system evaluates the user name and password, to determine your user group. The access rights for a stored database are then determined by your user name, password, and the stored user table.

Hicom Assistant T Password Concept

In Release 2.0, you must enter a user name and password when accessing the system administration on the telephone. The administration options are then determined on the basis of your user group.

The administration (customer) user group can read and modify user data
(Hicom Assistant TC function in Release 1.0).
The accounting user group can edit call detail data.
The system maintenance (service) user group can perform general system maintenance (Hicom Assistant T function in Release 1.0, except for confidential customer data).

New system administration menu options are available to the following special functions:

Country initialization
Reset connected options
Reset boards

2.16.6 System Access Options

2.16.6.1 Hicom Assistant TC

Log on by typing your user name and password, even if the telephone lock is active.
You can access the system only from the first two UP0/E ports.

2.16.6.2 Hicom Assistant T

Log on by typing your user name and password.

You can access the system only from the first two UP0/E ports.

2.16.6.3 Hicom Assistant E (Local)

Log on by typing your user name and password.

2.16.6.4 Hicom Assistant E (Remote) Direct Access

Hicom Assistant E (Remote) Direct Access is a PC service tool using IMOD (analog) or digital connection, with an enable procedure or direct dialing-in with password (a 5-digit access code). The default password is XXXXX and does not grant access. Only the customer can enter the password from Hicom Assistant C, T, and TC and reset the default password.

When you log on, the system checks the user name and password entered at the beginning of a Hicom Assistant session or during operation.

 

For data protection, always configure callback.
 

2.16.6.5 Hicom Assistant E (Remote) Callback

Hicom Assistant E (Remote) Callback is a PC service tool using IMOD (analog) or digital connection, with callback after you enter a callback password (up to six callback numbers and passwords). There are no default passwords.

When you log on, the system checks the user name and password entered at the beginning of a Hicom Assistant session or during operation.

2.16.6.6 Hicom Assistant C

Log on by typing your user name and password.

2.16.6.7 Hicom Assistant T Online

Log on by typing your user name and password.

2.16.6.8 Hicom Assistant T Remote (Remote Touch Tone)

Log on by typing your user name and password.

2.16.7 Plus Products

Plus Products can read certain system data using AMHOST. It is possible to use existing Plus Products in a Rel. 2.0 system. The system does not check the passwords. The existing Plus Products cannot be operated from a remote location.

The following applies to new Plus Products:

Plus Products can read and modify certain system data using AMHOST. To connect to a Release 2.0 system remotely or locally, the user logs on with the user name "AMHOST" and a password.
By default, a user configured in the system has the user name "AMHOST" and a default password without a user group. Only the user administrator can change this password by first deleting the AMHOST user ID and then creating it again with the same user name and a different password (without a user group).

2.16.8 Service and Monitoring Capabilities (Rel 2.0 and Later)

2.16.8.3 Error Messages

In the event of a malfunction, the error messages of the Hicom 150 E Office communication system enable service technicians and customers to quickly correct the problem.

The errors are divided into classes and assigned to either Service or the customer.

For more information, refer to the individual error messages in Service, Chapter 13, The Electronic Service Manual.

Error Classification

Class A: Customer-handled errors
Class A errors appear automatically on the telephone of the intercept position. The customer can correct them, without support by the service technician. Class A errors (such as a printer alarm) are not recorded.
Class B: Service-handled errors
Class B errors include the failure of boards, ports, and trunks. The service technician can correct the errors by replacing hardware or by working with the public carrier to reconfigure the customer database.

Service technicians can output class B errors on site, using Hicom Assistant E. Remote error signaling can automatically forward class B errors to a service center.
Class C: Development-handled errors
Specialists can use class C errors to perform diagnostics and analyze problems. The specialists output the messages either in remote mode or on site by using Hicom Assistant E. Unlike class A and class B errors, class C errors are not signaled automatically.

2.16.8.6 Telephone Test

After you start up the system and complete the country adaptation, you can perform a telephone test on each optiset E telephone by entering a code or selecting a service menu. The display, the LEDs, and the ringers on the telephone are activated during the test. The telephone displays its station number, and the test ends automatically after a timeout. You then check the functions of the components visually and acoustically.

2.16.8.7 Customer Database Backup (CDB Backup)

The system performs a CDB backup (not in Hicom 150 E OfficeOne) by automatically backing up the CDB to a storage medium in cycles. The Hicom 150 E Office system always backs up the CDB to a flash memory card (FMC) at midnight (system time). If the control board is defective, you can transfer the latest CDB to a new board. This requires that the FMC used have sufficient memory for a CDB backup (at least 8 MB). In the U.S. all systems come with a 16-MB FMC.

In Release 2.0 and later, you can back up the CDB manually, using Hicom Assistant T or Hicom Assistant E (in online mode).

You can also use Hicom Assistant T to manually recover a CDB from a flash memory card.

The CDB, including call data and activated features, is saved for approximately 100 hours in a power failure.

(Not for U.S.) If you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), in the event of a power failure, system operation is maintained for the period provided by the UPS.

2.16.8.8 APS Transfer

APS transfer enables you to use remote service to download the system software (APS) of all Hicom 150 E Office systems from a service center. You can use
Hicom Assistant E to perform an APS transfer by means of the integrated analog mode for analog trunks and B channel access (64 Kbps) for digital trunks.

Important note (not for U.S.)

The APS transfer feature is currently available for the German version only. The feature will be released for other countries by separate service bulletins.

Important note (for U.S. only)

In the U.S., the APS transfer feature is available for downloading the system software from one Release 2 system to another Release 2 system. However, APS transfer is not possible from a Release 1 system to a Release 2 system even if the Release 1 system has been upgraded to Release 2.

2.16.9 Remote Service

Function

Remote service is the communication between the service center and Hicom 150 E Office through the public telephone network. The services include:

Remote administration, maintenance, and diagnostics
Remote software correction
Automatic trouble reporting

A service center provides remote service, to administer and maintain several different communication systems through the integrated analog or digital modem.

For security, a callback call can set up the connection to the integrated modem in the customer system. One or more passwords must be set up, along with the corresponding callback numbers. The remote administration and maintenance functions can be accessed only as independent applications from Hicom Assistant E. Hicom Assistant E accessed by remote service has the same features available to on-site access. The following figure shows the basic layout of equipment for remote operation.

Figure 2-34 Equipment for Remote Service

2.16.9.1 Remote DTMF Administration

Remote DTMF administration uses DTMF transmission to program the system remotely. The user interface on the programming telephone is the same as the user interface that appears when activating system administration on site (the menus are also the same). Passive remote DTMF administration must be enabled on the destination system.

In addition, the called party must activate remote administration for the current connection by invoking a procedure and entering a six-digit password. Any user can use a code to activate active remote DTMF administration from any administration telephone in the source system (active remote DTMF mode must be enabled in the CDB).

Remote DTMF administration can be executed:

Over analog and digital trunks.
On any Hicom 150 E system from any other Hicom 150 E system, as long as the system being administered is the same size as the administering system or smaller.

2.16.9.2 Remote Error Signaling

Service-related errors (class B errors) can be transmitted automatically to a service center through the integrated modem. Class A and C errors are not signaled; Hicom Assistant E can display error memory. All errors not yet transmitted are transferred 15 minutes after the first error occurs.

If all errors are corrected within 15 minutes (for example, if a failed board is back in operation), there will be no error signaling. The errors in the error memory are converted to class C errors. The error report contains a header and the error data (transmitted in binary format). The header uniquely identifies the transmitting customer system.

For the service center to monitor the functionality of automatic error signaling, the system software generates a pseudo-error at selectable intervals as a function test.

2.16.9.3 Analog Modem IMOD (Not Applicable to Hicom 150 E OfficeOne)

The integrated analog modem (IMOD) provides remote access to Hicom 150 E by means of any type of trunk, tie trunk, or subscriber line. The IMOD is a plug-in card installed on one of the following boards, depending on the system:

CBMOD (Hicom 150 E OfficePro)
CBPC/CBFC (Hicom 150 E OfficeCom)
CBPC/CBFC (Hicom 150 E OfficePoint)

To install the modem card, the service technician disconnects the system from the power source, opens the housing, and slides the card into the holding mechanism.

The IMOD is like a pseudo-port and receives a station number within the system that is reached internally and by direct inward dialing (DID). The DID number can be removed manually to prevent access from the outside. A password ensures access control and the use of a callback call or direct access.

The customer can program a 5-digit PIN in system administration. To access the modem, the customer enters this PIN in Hicom Assistant E. The default PIN does not provide access to the modem.

The following parameters apply to analog modem mode:

Transmission to V.22bis (2400 bd), V.32 (9600 bd), V.32bis (14400 bd)
Error correction to V.42, MNP 2-4
Data compression to V.42bis, MNP 5

2.16.9.4 Integrated Digital Modem

The integrated digital modem provides remote access by means of digital trunks, digital tie trunks, or S0 subscriber line circuits.

All systems in the Hicom 150 E Office product line have an integrated B channel modem for remote DTMF access. The system software uses this modem to support X.75 data transmission.

The digital modem is like a pseudo-port and receives a station number within the system that can be reached internally and by direct inward dialing. The DID number can be removed manually to prevent access from the outside.

The customer can program a 5-digit PIN in system administration. To access the modem, the customer enters this PIN in Hicom Assistant E. The default PIN does not provide access to the modem.

The PIN can be reset to the default using password-protected system administration (only using Assistant T from the telephone).

2.16.10 Logging Administrative Procedures

In Hicom 150 E Office Release 2.0 and later, there is a new function in data security for logging administrative procedures. This feature includes recording, evaluating, and archiving the activities.

The logging function is based on when, where, and what criteria and records all changes to customer data. You can specify which users can modify which data at which time.

The flash card reserves an area for storing the information. A revisor (a user who authorizes revision) can copy this data from the system to a PC and store it there, view it on the monitor, and print it.

You cannot turn the logging function on and off. It is carried out automatically on a 10- or 6-MB (6-MB not for U.S.) flash card. The next-to-the-last MB on the flash card is reserved for logging. When the log is 80 percent full, it triggers a class A error. The system treats this error like all other class A errors and displays revisor alarm on the screen.

2.16.10.1 Data Collection

The following information is logged:

Actions using Hicom Assistant T/TC/E
Administrative procedures
Maintenance procedures
APS (Application Processor System) transfer
External access (solutions, applications)
Online activities

Log entries contain:

Date and time (when)
User name and user group (who)
Format identification (the type of activity performed) and command input (what)

2.16.10.2 Data Output

Hicom Assistant E produces log entries. You can access the log entries from the system only after logging on as a user with revisor rights.

You can also use Hicom Assistant E to check the archive files on the PC monitor and print them, without logging onto the system. You do not need a password.
