About this Guide Icons and Conventions This manual uses the following icons and conventions. Caution! Follow these instructions carefully to avoid danger. Note these instructions carefully. Label PN: 1725-36130-001_E.doc This typeface indicates a key, label, or button on SpectraLink hardware.
1 Plan the Interface The system administrator programs the telephone system for use with the Wireless Telephone System using the normal administration terminal or procedures. Programming can be done after the handsets are registered. Recommended programming includes assigning extension numbers to the handsets and programming features on the telephone system so they are easily accessible from the handsets. For analog interfaces, macro codes are in the document relating to configuring the system.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System “model” handsets then use the model as a template to program the other handsets. • All handsets are different: All handsets are programmed differently, so each handset will be programmed individually. Before installation, the parameters of the wired phones should be verified to plan the parameters required for the handsets. Line assignment The handset supports up to nine line resources.
Plan the Interface It will help to identify a wired set that is programmed exactly or close to the way the handsets should be programmed. This set can be duplicated to copy station parameters to the handsets. Assign Extension Numbers The wire contractor should inform the system administrator which port numbers have been designated for the handsets.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System When lines are programmed as shown on the key-map diagrams, the numeral icons on the handset display will be mapped to any deskset LEDs associated with the corresponding feature keys.
Plan the Interface Function Menu Programming SpectraLink 6300 MCU Note that the function menu defaults set for the handsets associated with the SpectraLink 6300 MCU can be changed via the SpectraLink Operator’s Console. If the system uses softkeys, to minimize unwanted interaction between system display and the handset function menu display, configure the handset menu to include a delay of one function key.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System Hold The Hold feature should be programmed to the HOLD key as shown on the Key-map Diagrams so that when the HOLD key or softkey is pressed on the handset, the call is placed on hold. Mute The handset Mute function is hard-coded on the PTB 4xx handset to FCN+1. This function sequence is recommended, but the system administrator can assign the Mute function to any available function key sequence or leave the function unassigned.
2 Interface Implementation This section describes the recommended programming to use the SpectraLink 6000 System with a DEFINITY Communications System. The procedures assume: PN: 1725-36130-001_E.doc • The DEFINITY system is installed and operational in an approved configuration. See the Telephone Switch Interface Matrix document for tested configurations. • A trained DEFINITY technician will be on site with the Installer to program the system.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System DEFINITY Four-Wire Interface The DEFINITY TN754B (any vintage) or TN754 (vintage 11 or higher) circuit pack provides eight, four-wire digital station circuits. Two of these wires are used for transmit, two are used for receive. Typically the stations are wired to a block or to a patch panel. From the block or patch panel the stations are wired to a modular jack. The jack can connect to a short patch cord that connects to the MCU.
Interface Implementation See the documentation for your SpectraLink components for more information about wiring the demarc block or patch panel. The following table shows the patch cord pinout for the Avaya side of the modular 8-pin (RJ45) connector. Pin 1 Function Receive 2 Receive 3 Transmit 6 Transmit Each digital pair is polarity insensitive. If you reverse polarity the system will still work.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System Key-mapping the Handset to Emulate 8410D Functionality Programmable buttons on Page 2 of the station form can be assigned as determined in the pre-installation procedures. The following diagram shows how the 8410D buttons map to the handset.
Interface Implementation is the sequence equivalent to pressing the corresponding softkey on the desk set. The handset function menu default settings are shown on each corresponding button in the above diagram; these may be changed as described above in Function Menu Programming. Some of these functions (Mute, Redial, Forward, etc.) are activated by softkeys or FCN menu options on the SpectraLink 6000 and SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Avaya DEFINITY Communications System settings so they can be manually duplicated using an add station command for the template handset. Station features for handset Station features on Page 1 of the station form can be assigned or copied as determined in the pre-installation procedures. The following settings must be set for the handset: Type: 8410D Name: the handset user's name, if there is a permanent user assigned.
Interface Implementation • To make the handset ring when the wired station rings, change Bridged Call Alerting to Yes on the wired station. If the handset is not a bridged appearance of a wired station, assign buttons 1-3 as call appearances (call-appr). Duplicate programming After the model handset or phones have been completely programmed, use the duplicate station command to copy the programming to all “like” handsets. Change the extension of the bridged appearance on each set as it is copied.
