  1. OVERVIEW
  2. This FCI details enhancements introduced in ISDN Release 8.0, software Version 1.10. Hardware and documentation requirements for this software release are also discussed.

    1. CHANGES IN ISDN RELEASE 8.0 Version 1.10
    2. The following enhancements have been added to ISDN Release 8.0.1.10:

      1. Converged IMAT Release 7.1 Version 0.2
      2. IMAT is now converged across all ISDN products (ISDN/PRI, R2 System, SX200, BRI, Ipera/2KNT). As well, all older releases of ISDN are supported by selecting the appropriate System Type. When selecting PRI (SX200/SX2000), the database version used will be version DB8.0.0.0. When selecting R2, the database version used will be version DB7.0.0.0.

      3. Enhanced QSIG Support
        1. Call Diversion
        2. Call Diversion is a method of diverting a call based on features enabled on the set (Forwarding/Rerouting). When a call is diverted, the forwarding/reroute information is passed directory back to the originating PBX. This allows for better use of DPNSS and QSIG trunking.

          PRI will convert QSIG diversion messaging from the QSIG network to DPNSS messages and pass them to the SX2000. Similarly, DPNSS diversion messaging from the SX2000 will be converted to QSIG diversion and passed to the QSIG network.

        3. Q.SIG – Call Forwarding

Provide Call Forwarding feature support in Q.SIG for Centralized Voicemail and Centralized Attendants:

  1. Activation and Deactivation can be performed by the served user. Activation and Deactivation correspond to SX2000 Remote Third Party Forwarding features.
  2. Interrogation requests the call forwarding status of a remote set. DPNSS has no equivalent to this feature.
  1. automatically when incoming call arrives;
  2. after call remains unanswered for a predefined time;
  3. or as a result of destination set action when alerted of incoming call.
  4. Maps to functionality provided in DPNSS.
        1. Call Transfer
        2. Allows user to transfer a call to another destination over Q.SIG trunks. This feature is already provided by other trunking systems (ie. DPNSS). Supports QSIG Call Transfer by Join, but no Call Transfer by Rerouting.

        3. Call Offer
          1. With Path Retention
          2. Call Offer is the same as Campon. It is supported on Originating, Transit, and Terminating SX2000 nodes. Provides an information element in the initial SETUP message to notify the Terminating PINX of a list of possible services that may be requested during the call:

            For example, if Busy is encountered at the terminating party, this fact is signaled back to the Originating PINX without clearing the call. The busy indication can then be presented to the caller who can decide whether to apply Campon, etc… If the user requests Campon, this fact is signaled to the Terminating PINX as part of the initial call. There is no DPNSS equivalent to this functionality.

             

             

             

          3. Without path Retention

          Call Offer is the same as Campon. It is supported on Transit and Terminating SX2000 nodes. It works similar to DPNSS Call Offer:

          For example, if an ISRM is sent to the terminating PBX and a CRM with clearing cause 8 (busy) is returned, the original call is cleared and busy tone and display are presented to the caller. The user can choose to campon (I Will Wait). A second ISRM is then sent with the SIS-CO string included to indicate that campon is required.

        4. Message Waiting
        5. QSIG Message Waiting activation and deactivation map directly to DPNSS callback messaging, with the exception of QSIG interrogation functionality. QSIG message waiting service delivers more parameters than DPNSS, therefore these extra parameters will be lost.

        6. Path Replacement
        7. The PRI will convert QSIG path replacement messaging received from the QSIG network to DPNSS messages and pass them to the SX2000. Similarly DPNSS route optimization messages from the SX2000 are converted to QSIG path replacement messages and passed to the QSIG network.

          Path Replacement is the same as Route Optimization. It is supported when it is requested from an Originating PBX, with the optimizing call made from the Terminating PBX, towards the Originating PBX.

          It is not supported when requested from Transit nodes, Terminating nodes, or if the optimizing call is made from the Originator towards the Terminator, except when the SX2000 is acting as a transit node only.

        8. Connected Name/Number & Busy Name/Number

Connected Name/Number and Busy Name/Number have been added to QSIG Rel2.

  7. INSTALLATION AND UPGRADE NOTES
    1. NEW INSTALLATION Release 8.0 Version 1.10 or later

Refer to the appropriate section of the CD-ROM Documentation for detailed information.

IMPORTANT When Upgrading

Follow this order

The ISDN PRI card is now programmed as a Universal T1 card on the SX2000 as of LW31 Rel1.

Due to the large increase in file size for the PRI software, the traditional upgrade procedure has changed.

When upgrading from a release earlier than 8, it is strongly suggested that you follow these steps.

IMPORTANT When Upgrading

Follow this order

Requirements PC/Laptop with a CD drive and Imat rls 7.1.0.2 installed and tested and WinZip 7.0 or greater installed and working.

  1. Connect to the card using IMAT
  2. Load database from the PRI card and save it to the Imat PC’s C: drive. (Give it a valid name)
  3. Disconnect from remote site.
  4. Exit Imat.
  5. Create a folder on the "C" drive of the Imat PC with a valid name eg: "priupg"
  6. Put the ISDN rls 8.0.1.10 in the CD drive and using "Explore" open the Pri_install folder
