Plan Your System Requirements
Plan for your Strata CIX system requirements in detail before beginning your installation. Use record
sheets wherever they are provided to document your installation requirements. The following are some
areas to consider:
• Flexible Numbering Plan (102) – Planning your Flexible Numbering requirements is essential to a
smooth installation. Trunk group access and station range requirements are especially important areas
of consideration.
• COS (103) – Determine the Class of Service (COS) requirements for your station and trunk groups.
There are up to 32 possible COS plans.
• DRL (111) – Define up to 16 Destination Restriction Level (DRL) assignments.
Important! Destination Restriction is an expanded feature of what has traditionally been known as Toll
Restriction. Toll Restriction is only one facet of Strata CIX’s Destination Restriction feature.
Refer to Destination Restriction in this manual when programming Toll Restriction
requirements.
• FRL and QPL (506) – Define up to 16 Facilities Restriction Level (FRL) and Queuing Priority Level
(QPL) assignments.
Program the CIX for First Time
Follow the steps below to program the Strata CIX for the first time. Following this initial setup procedure
enables you to perform a standard Strata CIX setup with common System and Station default
assignments. Toshiba recommends adherence to these procedures for initial setup. Refer to the CIX40
Installation and Maintenance Manual (CIX-IM-CIX40-Vx) for the CIX40 default database and start-up
procedures.
1. Card Assignments (100) – Choose Advanced Configuration > System > Card Assignment. It is not
necessary to physically install PCBs prior to programming Strata CIX.
If you physically install your PCBs prior to initial setup, Strata eManager automatically recognizes
PDKU, BDKU/BDKS, RSTU, RCOU/RCOS and RGLU PCBs and assigns default stations and trunks
automatically. All other PCBs are assigned manually. See ”100 Cabinet Slot PCB Assignments’ on
page 4-1 for more details.
2. ILG Assignment (304) – Choose Trunk > ILG to assign Incoming Line Groups (ILG). See ”304
Incoming Line Group Assignment’ on page 6-2 for more details. ILGs enable line groupings of shared
Class of Service features for incoming call handling.
3. OLG Assignment (306) – Choose Trunk > OLG to assign Outgoing Line Groups (OLG). See ”306
Outgoing Line Groups’ on page 6-5 for more details.
4. Trunk Assignment (300) – Choose Trunk > Basic. Set up your Trunks in the following order (see ”300
Trunk Assignment’ on page 6-7 for more details):
- Loop Start Trunks
- Ground Start Trunks
- T1 Trunks
- Tie lines
- FX lines
- PRI lines
- BRI lines
