Hello all- New here, but was on the Meridian forum for a long time. Got a lot of really great help over there. We just converted our first building to CCM and are having persistent but intermittent problems faxing. Call Manager 7 ATA 186 Toshiba e-studio 455 multi-function...

Thanks. I'm sure we have a lot to learn! Between the two of us, we have solid background in Nortel and Siemens. We'll probably do fine. Bottom line seems to be that 24 sec is standard regardless of how many rings or ring cycles are contained therein.

My wife has Cicso at work, and their phones ring with a normal cadence. We have a Cicso pilot setup right now, and it sounds like a fast cadence. Hopefully I can change it easily enough when we implement the full system. If 18 seconds is 3 rings, sounds like the standard 6 sec per ring cycle: 2...

Our city just awarded a contract to Cisco for a new phone system, so we're beginning the migration from an Option 61 and several Option 11s to a Cisco Call Manager system. Seeking opinions on two items: Cicso tells me the business world is getting away from using 9 for an outside line to...

Cisco won our proposal for a new phone system, so we're beginning the migration from an Option 61 and several Option 11s to a Cisco Call Manager system. Need opinions from you, based on your years of experience, on two things: Cicso tells me the business world is getting away from using 9 for...

Thanks! I had the website right, just forgot the /meridian.

Hello, I've been absent for quite some time. There was a frequent contributor who had a website with an Excel tool that would take my DNB and /or TNB and parse it all out into a very nice Excel spreadsheet showing me all the TNs, DNs, names, line appearances, CLS features, counts of phone sets...

JP- Are you saying it IS possible to have callerid with name display on my Option 61 Succession 3 (if, of course, my LEC is sending it)? Can you elaborate a little on the instructions above? I've been asked for name display MANY times, on this job and in a previous job.

We're planning to convert all of our (outdated) Option 11s to VoIP. We're looking for a more immediate ROI on our fiber, however, I'm beginning to think that the money spent on fibermuxes might be better spent on VoIP gear. Also, even though we have 144 strands now, every point to point fiber...

Thanks. I'll look for Adtran. Just found a RAD fiber modem a few minutes ago.

I work for the city, and this is the city fiber I'm wanting to use to connect city PBXs, so there's no leasing of fiber involved. It's the leasing of point-to-point circuits from the telco that I want to eliminate. In a previous job (electric utility) our PBXs were connected via tie lines using...

Hi all, I haven't been here in a while. Seems the name of the forum changed from Meridian to CS1000. I have an Option 51 and a number of Option 11 switches connected via leased point-to-point T1s from our telco. We now have a city-wide fiber system installed, and I'd like to convert the PRIs...

If the phone has 3 lines, set LPK=2, since the keys are numbered 0, 1, 2.

For specific questions, use Google or search here for archive and FAQ results. If that doesn't work, post here. Many people will be happy to help.

When we went 10-digit dialing in our area code, our mayor wanted me to set up the PBXs so people could still do 7-digit dialing! How would I know which area code they wanted to dial? We have almost 10 area codes in service or scheduled in the Chicago area. When I was at the electric company, we...
