I understand PBX's, but am new to the NEC 2000. What software is needed, and what are the connection ports for making changes to this switch?
Appreciate any help.
Thanks

I use matworks and dial into the switch using a DID number I reserved for the switch. The program came with the switch. I also am familar with PBX's but find this system difficult to figure out. Some things just can't be done with Matworks or I haven't be able to figure them out. I know most of the functionality has to be done in MOC or commands through a phone rather than graphically. i.e. reassigning DID numbers, adding extensions, etc. The phone system is only a portion of my job and weeks may go by without needing to make changes. I wish it was a little more intuitive. Having a command line manual would help.
 
Is matworks proprietary, or is it a sort of terminal emulator?

MATWorX is proprietary software, but on the older 2000IVS systems, you can simply dial in using procomm or hyperterminal. The easy way to tell if your system is the IVS or the newer IVS2/IPS, check how many amphenols are plugged into each PIM. If there are only 3 per PIM, it's an IVS. If there are 4, it's an IVS2/IPS.

On-site, I usually just program from a display phone.
