Tel-Site System Management Application
TVS Modem Shares a CO Line Connection (off-site access)
Sharing a CO line for a connection is a common way to access remote sites. This section describes
the TVS configuration required for a successful connection. In addition, you learn why Tel-Site uses
DISA (Direct Inward System Access) accounts and where to enter that information.
Note
The modems used for shared CO connections must support partial dialing. Partial dialing
enables Tel-Site to dial the customer site, delay long enough for the TVS to answer, and
then send a Direct Inward System Access (DISA) logon password to complete the
connection.
For more information, see the
Modem Properly Installed
topic in the Tel-Site
Help
menu.
About Direct Inward System Access (DISA)
The
TVS Modem Shares a CO Line
connection uses DISA (Direct Inward System Access) as part
of its logon to the system. DISA is a way to gain access to the internal dial tone of the VS1
telephone system from an external phone not connected to the system. For example, you are off-site
and want to access an outside line from the office. You perform the normal DISA steps of pressing
#
, then your extension, and then your DISA account.
DISA for the Tel-Site application uses the same procedures as normal DISA activity. The only
difference is that Tel-Site performs the steps automatically to connect.
