Call Reporting Devices (SMDR)
SMDR (Station Message Detail Recording) is a
call reporting feature that
provides records of call activity. Call reporting information provides you with the
ability to:
Detect any unauthorized calls
Bill clients or projects
Bill back by department
Reduce telephone costs by identifying the need to change
telecommunications services (like adding a WATS line for calls to a
particular area code)
Print Caller ID information
Call reporting information is recorded after each call is completed. For outgoing
calls, the system records information for each call that lasts more than 10
seconds. The timing begins when you lift the handset or press
S
to access
an outside line. For incoming calls, the timing begins when the call is answered.
Timing stops when the call is disconnected.
The system sends the information through a 1200-baud serial interface to either a
serial printer or a call accounting device. The device connects directly to the
SMDR jack on the processor module.
Programming
Use the following programming procedures for call reporting:
to specify the type of calls that you want to
record for call reporting—either all calls or outgoing calls only.
to notify the system that the printer has been
aligned to the top of a new page.
to identify whether a maximum of 15 digits

operation is supported.
