SMDR Serial Information 3

[telcomwork]

A vender is asking me to porvide the SMDR information for CDR. Specifically they are asking for Baud Rate, Parity, Stop Bits, Char Bits, and tiem/date info?

Would this be on the disp sys-par cdr page? If so I don't see these options for a CM3.0, and R12.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

You can setup CDR through ip service with your clan board or you can use an ip 2 serial converter. The S8xx servers do not have any serial (RS232) interface for CDR data.

Thanks Avayafreakje, we have those setup I mean to list the G3si using older R9.0 that has to use serial?

Thanks!

Is the serial on the PBX male or female also is it a 9 pin?

Thank you!

telcomwork,

port settings are fixed: 9600 bps, 8 data bits, none parity and 1 stop bit, no flow control. use the "dce" port on the back of the cabinet. it's a female db-25.

Thank you!

Another quick question, if using a CLAN card off the PBX to go to a CDR collection box using a serial 9 pin, what pins of the ethernet cable does the CLAN use to send data?

For that to work you would ned a Terminal Server (IO LAN). It takes the C-LAN data feed and converts it to RS-232.

Might want to consider getting rid of the RS-232 buffer box and sending the CDR directly to your server over ethernet via that c-lan board and RSP.

One less piece to troubleshoot buy or configure. Most CAS systems are capable of accepting it in this manner we have found it to be robust and easily configured.

I want to get rid of our buffer box but the Infortel Support people are still telling me that I need to upgrade the buffer box to collect the info via TCP/IP and buffer it. We have tenants that we charge for usage, so we really don't want to lose any data, data=revenue. We purchased the terminal server for the upgrade, but I would like to migrate to IP/via C-lan in the future if that is possible.
