Note: The following items highlighted in 

RED

 are pre-configured by the PBX 

Manager wizard during the installation. Remote Norstar installations require 
manual entry. 

 

Add, Delete, Save 

  Add new allows manual adding of other system(s) for Console.NET to connect 

to. Add new should only be used by experienced users. ConverTec suggest that 
the PBX wizard is used for adding new systems.  

  Delete will delete the current system selection along with all currently configured 

extensions within that system 

  Save must be selected in order to make any changes permanent with the 

exception of Delete. 

 
Switch Type 

This is only displayed when adding a new server. The choices available are Norstar or 
BCM. BCM or a single local Norstar switch Type is automatically configured using the 
PBX Manager wizard. When adding remote Norstar systems, Norstar must be 
selected after clicking "Add New" 

 
Current Switch Name  

Lists systems already installed and allows entry of a new switch name when the "Add 
new" button is selected. Clicking on the drop down arrow on the right side of the field 
allows selection of other installed systems in order to edit the respective system 
options. 

 
TCP Address 

This is mandatory value and should not be changed without involving ConverTec 
support. This is the IP address for PBX service that Console.NET uses to 
communicate to the appropriate phone system. For BCM installations, all 
communication can take place through the Default address. Remote Norstar 
installations require the IP address of the computer running at the remote site. 

 

Port number  

This is mandatory value and should not be changed without involving ConverTec 
support. Each system connected requires an independent PBX server for 
communication. Each PBX server installed on the same system requires a different 
Port number. The PBX wizard will assign all port numbers for all PBX Services 
running on the same computer. Since remote Norstar installations require manual 
entry, enter port 9000. 

 

Use outside Line Prefix  

Check this box and add digit(s) that may be required prior to dialing a phone number 
from Console.NET. This is typically used for Central Office lines called Centrex where 
a digit 9 or 8 may need to be sent in order to get dial tone.
