IPS Confi guration Program – Remote Operation
It is possible for a computer running the Con
fi
guration Program in one location to communicate
with an IPS unit at another site.
Remote con
fi
guration is enabled when the System Manager enters the “772” command. When
this command is entered, the IPS will answer the next incoming Central Of
fi
ce call in the DISA
mode. If the incoming caller enters an ‘8’, the unit will enter a mode allowing a remote program
to con
fi
gure the IPS via tones sent through the incoming line. An external modem is not required.
A special translation unit is required at the host computer site in order to allow the standard PC-
based IPS Con
fi
guration Program to connect to the remote IPS.
In this con
fi
guration mode, the resources required for answering calls in the DISA mode will be
in use. Therefore, all incoming calls will be answered in the non-DISA mode for as long as the
con
fi
guration process is in progress.
NOTE: The ability to remotely program by using an external modem at the IPS unit site (using the “771”
command) which was supported by earlier versions of the software is no longer supported.
Computer Aided Telephony (CAT) Software
The Computer Aided Telephony (CAT) version of the IPS software can operate in a computer
environment where it can be controlled by an application running on the computer. All of the modes
and commands discussed in this Chapter will operate as described. A person at any extension can
use all of the features listed. However, there may be other commands and capabilities which can
be accessed from the computer application controlling the IPS.
