IVX 20 General description General description IVX 20 (IVX stands for Integrated Voice Exchange, while the superscripted 20 indicates the system’s maximum number of call-processing ports) is an advanced business telecommunications system for small offices. It includes not only phone service but also voice mail, an automated attendant and computer integration. The system itself is housed in a surprisingly small case that is wall-mounted in the telephone equipment room.
General description IVX 20 Voice mail features • Six built-in voice mail ports — These are in addition to the up-to-20 possible call-processing ports; thus, you may build the system to its maximum for call-handling without having to balance voice mail needs versus call-handling needs. • Highest-grade voice quality (64-kilobit/second sampling) for voice mail and other storage of voice messages. • Three message-on-hold recordings, including two prerecorded announcements; also supports live input.
IVX 20 Administrator programming Administrator programming Important: Before doing any programming, please read the User Guide. Programming requires a clear understanding of user interface and application. Also, to be able to assist others — particularly new employees — you will need an in-depth understanding of the system’s operation; so carefully read this manual and ask the Installer any questions you may have. Note: Point your employees to the ESI Web site at www.esi-estech.com.
Administrator programming IVX 20 User assistance Help each user become familiar with station programming and learn to rely on the Verbal User Guide. The Verbal User Guide includes all of the information printed in the User’s guide (with the exception of special features); additionally, the IVX users’ section of the ESI Web site (www.esiestech.com) includes all the information in the User’s guide, and even more. However, you can make the User’s guide available to those who may prefer printed instructions.
IVX 20 Administrator programming Entering alphanumeric characters You enter names for extensions and departments by pressing the dial pad key that corresponds to the character to be entered.

When the display shows the desired character, press # to confirm; the cursor will move to the next character position.
Administrator programming IVX 20 Accessing user station programming Should a user forget his password or if an employee leaves the organization, this feature allows the Administrator to enter a user's station programming and operate within it as if he were the user. From the user’s station, input the Administrator password when the system prompts for the user password. Example: From station 105, entering 4 5 6 # instead of the user password (1 0 5 #) will enter the station’s user programming.

In Function 32, access to system speed dial can be denied to individual stations (see page D.1).

IVX 20 Function 7: Reports Function 7: Reports Serial printer/SMDR capture Connect a standard serial printer or call accounting system to the serial port.

SMDR data will be stored temporally if a laptop is connected for programming (five minutes after you exit programming mode, the buffered SMDR will resume output to the serial port). The output from the serial port is: 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity, 1200 baud.
