These instructions help you configure your Avaya Meridian Option Series to work with TIM Plus. Contact your system maintainer if you are not familiar with the configuration of your PBX.

Configuring your SMDR

By default, the SMDR output in the Avaya Meridian Option Series is disabled. You need to speak to your system maintainer to have this enabled for incoming, outgoing and internal calls. Additionally, CLI, DNIS, response time and abandoned calls should be enabled for incoming calls.

You need to configure one of the TTY ports on the Meridian to output SMDR information and connect a serial cable between this port and the PC running NetPBX.

Using the following commands, configure each option as shown below:

1. Enable CDR (command: LD 21)

2. Port Setup (command: LD 22)

3. CDR Format (commands: LD 22; LD 17)

<p>These instructions should assist in configuring your Aastra BP to 
work with TIM Enterprise. If you are not familiar with PBX 
configuration, please contact your system maintainer.</p>

<h2>Configuring your CDR</h2>

<p>By default, the Avaya Meridian Option CDR output is disabled. You will need to 
speak to your system maintainer to have this enabled. They will need to
 enable CDR output for incoming, outgoing and internal calls. In 
addition to this for incoming calls they will need to enable CLI 
information, DNIS information, response time information and abandoned 
calls.</p>

<p>You will need to configure one of the 'TTY' ports on the Avaya Meridian Option Series to output CDR information. You will then need to connect the serial cable from the 'TTY' port to the PC that NetPBX is installed and 
running on.</p>
