Introduction About BCMS Vu Software R2 Lucent Technologies BCMS Vu Software R2 is a graphical user interface software application for monitoring the status and performance of a call center, using data collected in the Basic Call Management System (BCMS) on a DEFINITY system. BCMS Vu Software R2 supports the DEFINITY Prologix, DEFINITY G3V4 (load 64 or later), ECS R5 or later, and DEFINITY ONE. BCMS Vu Software R2 and Connectivity to DEFINITY 1 The type of DEFINITY system determines your connectivity.
Introduction • Allows access to data from several DEFINITY systems. Operating Environment BCMS Vu runs in the Microsoft Windows operating environment. The BCMSVu Server software runs on an IBM® compatible PC that is running the Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Workstation or Server operating system. The BCMS Vu Client software runs on an IBM compatible PC that is running the Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0 Workstation or Server operating system.
Introduction Differences Between R1 and R2 of BCMS Vu 1 The most obvious difference between Release 1 and Release 2 is the separation of the Server application from the Client application. The Server application is installed on one PC, which is connected to a DEFINITY system. The Server obtains data from the DEFINITY system. Client applications are installed on the same PC as the Server or on other PCs, which connect to the server over a LAN, instead of connecting directly to the DEFINITY system.
Introduction Differences Between R2 Version 1 and R2 Version 2 of BCMS Vu 1 R2 Version 2 BCMS Vu introduces the support of LAN connectivity to the DEFINITY ONE platform.
Introduction Overview of the Installation 1 The steps to complete the installation and setup of BCMS Vu Software R2 are: 2. Administer the network (required for the DEFINITY ONE system) or stand-alone PC, if any. 3. Install the data module if connecting to a DEFINITY System other than DEFINITY ONE. 4. Install the hardware key on the Server PC. 5. Install the BCMS Vu Server software. 6. Install the BCMS Vu Client software. 7. Install the BCMS Vu Wallboard software if you are using wallboards. 8.
Introduction Checking the BCMS Vu Software Package Contents To be sure you have everything you need, verify that the following items are included in the software package: • Program disk – your BCMS Vu Software R2 package should contain a CD-ROM with the software program. • Hardware Key – The hardware key must be labeled “R2.” There are three versions, which allow one, up to five, and up to ten Clients to be connected to the Server.

Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network Configuring a Network 2 If you are connecting to a DEFINITY ONE System, the server PC should be on a network and should be able to communicate with the DEFINITY ONE using a LAN. Preliminary Considerations Unless otherwise noted, every item refers to PCs operating with either Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT 4.0. ❐ Be sure the PC on which Client software will be installed is connected to the same network as the Server PC.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network ❐ (Windows NT 4.0) Enable DNS for Windows Resolution. Configuring ❐ DNS is not required. However, if you decide to enable DNS, configure it correctly: ❐ The name in the “Host” field on the Server PC must be the same as the name of the Server. The name in the “Host” field on the Client PCs must be the same as the name of the Client. ❐ The entry in the “Domain” field should be the same throughout the network.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network If TCP/IP is installed, a window appears describing the configuration. If TCP/IP is not installed, you receive an error message. If you receive an error message, go into Start/Settings/Control Panel/Network and add TCP/IP Protocol. (You may need the Windows installation disk.) ❐ In the list of installed network components, highlight “Network Adapter” and select Properties.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network ❐ ❐ You must supply the PC name. The BCMS Vu Server PC must be accessible under that name to the BCMS Vu Client. If you are using DNS, this name must be the same as the DNS Host name. ❐ To avoid possible problems, we suggest that the workgroup be the same for all BCMS Vu PCs. ❐ “Computer Description” is optional. (Windows 95 or Windows 98) Select Share-level access control.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network Create a text file named “LMHosts” containing IP address and computer name information for the BCMS Vu Server. Example: 123.123.123.123 servername #PRE Install this file on every BCMS Vu Client and Wallboard PC that is on a different LAN segment than the BCMS Vu Server. In Windows 95 or Windows 98 install this file in the Windows\System\ directory. In Windows NT 4.0 install this file in the Winnt\system32\ drivers\etc\ directory.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network If you are successful, the network is configured. You may now install BCMS Vu software. Note The user who runs the BCMS Vu Server must be administered as a “Power User.” 3) After you install and run BCMS Vu Server software, verify that the BCMS Vu shared folder, “VuShare,” can be seen from all Clients.
Administering the DEFINITY System and Configuring the Network Configuring a PC without a Network Interface Card (NIC) 2 If your BCMS Vu Server satisfies the following requirements: • Is in stand-alone mode (Server and Client software reside on the same PC) • Does not have a NIC Note Problems may arise if the Windows PC has previously had NIC drivers installed even if the NIC has been removed. For this reason, remove any previously installed NIC drivers.
