Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 INTRODUCTION Each Inter-Tel Axxess hardware cabinet houses a power supply unit and up to seven circuit cards. Together, the circuit cards perform the switching activities for the system, detect incoming calls, process data-controlled features, and control the interaction of station instruments, trunks, intercom calls, and voice processing system applications.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 System software will support any configuration of station instruments with the limitation that there must be a minimum of one Keyset Card. The actual configuration is defined by the type of cards and the number of circuits in use on the system. The following list explains the function of the various Keyset Cards.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Display and Non-display Digital Endpoints The following display and non-display digital endpoints have a built-in speaker and microphone that allow the user to answer intercom calls handsfree, dial while on-hook, monitor calls, and listen to background music.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Every Analog, IDS, and Wave endpoint has a built-in, integrated speakerphone that allows the user to dial while on-hook and allows handsfree operation on outside calls and inside (intercom) calls. In addition, the speaker may provide background music (if an external music source is installed) and is used to receive pages.

System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Two-Line LCD The Model 8520, Standard, and Associate Display endpoints have a two-line Liquid Crystal Display that supports 16-characters per line. When the endpoint is not in use, the LCD shows the station extension number, username, time of day, and date.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Keymaps A keymap group determines the layout of the buttons (or keys) for all the stations assigned to that group. If any of the buttons in the keymap group are user-programmable or undefined, they can be changed by the station user. There can be up to 250 different endpoint keymap groups. Each node contains its own keymap programming. (There are also 20 maps for DSS/ BLF Units.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Page 84 • DSS/BLF Button: A DSS/BLF button will dial the associated extension number when pressed. If assigned to a button with a lamp, it will also show the status of the associated station, as described for DSS/BLF Units on page 40. DSS/BLF buttons cannot be changed by the station user. • Feature Button: These are programmed with feature codes.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 • Trunk Group Button: These buttons are associated with specific trunk group access codes and are used for placing outgoing calls on trunks in the selected trunk group. If assigned to a button with a lamp, the lamp will be lit if all trunks in the trunk group are in use. • Undefined Button: Any button can be left undefined if it will not be needed. It can be programmed, like a user-programmable button, as described above.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Default Inter-Tel Endpoint Feature Buttons When the system is in the default state, all endpoints are in the same keymap group and have the following feature buttons. Feature code descriptions start on page 117. (The Special button is represented by buttons with ∞ on the Inter-Tel endpoint.) Table 10. Default Feature Buttons BUTTON FUNCTION CALL BUTTONS 1-4 Selects an outgoing trunk, if idle, or answers a call on the button.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Secondary Extension Appearances The Secondary Extension Appearances feature allows calls ringing or on individual hold at one “primary” station to appear on a “secondary extension button” at another station. For example, a secretary or assistant can have a secondary extension button for a supervisor’s station, or one station can have several secondary extension buttons, each associated with a different primary station.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Normally, the secondary extension button will not show intercom calls. However, if the primary station does not have an IC button, intercom calls will appear under a Call button and, therefore, will appear on the secondary extension button. If the primary station is a single-line set, all calls will appear on the secondary extension button.

When both colors are used, a green lamp generally indicates that the call is active, ringing, or holding at your station (see below for a possible exception for direct ring-in calls).
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 To disconnect the headset from a Model 8560 or 8520: 1. Unplug the headset cord from the back of the endpoint. 2. While on-hook, enter the Headset Off feature code (316) or the Headset On/Off feature code (317). The display shows HEADSET MODE OFF. To disconnect the headset from all other Inter-Tel Endpoints: 1. Unplug the headset cord from the base of the endpoint. 2.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 To change the bit rate of your PCDPM: 1. While on-hook, enter the Program Bit Rate feature code (393). If the port is not configured for a DSS/BLF unit, the display shows ENTER BIT RATE. (If it is configured for DSS/BLF, the display shows CANNOT PROGRAM BIT RATE.) 2. Enter a valid rate (300, 600, 1200, 2400, or 4800). Model 8560 and Executive Display users can press the appropriate menu button in the display.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 The endpoint user can place or receive a data call using the endpoint and then transfer it to the data device. It can be an intercom or outside call and the endpoint can be on- or off-hook. The call is placed to or received from another modem-equipped data device.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 If an extension number is dialed and that station is in Do-Not-Disturb, the user will hear DoNot-Disturb tone through the data device’s speaker (if it has one). Whenever continuous busy, reorder, or Do-Not-Disturb tone is sent by the system, the Inactivity Alarm timer is registered. The DATA button is lit while the tones are present.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Termination of a data call may be accomplished in one of three ways: • Your data device can hang up. This causes the trunk or intercom channel to be released, terminating the call to the other data device. • The other data device may hang up. When the call is disconnected, the DATA button is unlit.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 There can be as many Desktop Interface devices on the system as there are Model 8560, Model 8520, Executive Display, Professional Display, Standard Display, and Associate Display endpoint circuits. The only limitation is on Desktop Interface devices that require DSS/BLF status updates (such as operators’ consoles). The system can support up to 20 DSS/BLF status requests from external devices at one time.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 SINGLE-LINE SETS Industry-standard, single-line DTMF sets can be installed on the system and/or used as an offpremises extension (OPX). On-premises single-line circuits can be used for installing AC-ringing single-line sets, playback devices, and other single-line devices. The single-line sets are connected to Single Line Cards (SLCs) or 16-Port Single Line Cards (SLC-16s).
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Single-Line Ring Zones and Extended Ring Cadences In some installations, where more than one single-line device is connected in series to an SLC or SLC-16 circuit, zoned ringing may be necessary. The system can support devices with up to 3 Ringer Equivalences (REs) per circuit. However, the system can only ring 8 REs per board.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Off-Premises Extensions (OPX) Off-premises extensions are remote single-line DTMF sets that are connected to the Inter-Tel system through telephone company OPX circuits (or customer-provided circuits). Off-premises station users gain access to the features by performing a hookflash/recall (pressing and releasing the hookswitch quickly) and entering feature codes.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 MINI-DSS UNITS Version 7.0 and later software supports a Mini-DSS that has 16 user-programmable buttons. This unit attaches directly to either the Model 8520, 8560 or 8660 endpoint and does not require a PCDPM or AC transformer. Like the DSS/BLF Unit, these buttons contain lamps that light or flash depending on the status of a station or the button’s programming. For details about the lamps, see the previous section.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 IP and SIP Endpoint Identification At first glance, IP and SIP hard endpoints look nearly identical to digital endpoints. Additional ports on the back of the endpoint, used for LAN and power connections, identify an endpoint as an IP or SIP endpoint. IP and SIP endpoints operate like digital endpoints installed on the system except for the limitations listed on page 101.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 • They do not support Desktop Open Architecture Interface (OAI) applications. • While using peer-to-peer (P2P) audio, SIP and IP devices do not support the Agent Help, Record-A-Call, and Station Monitor features. Installation and Configuration To install and configure IP and SIP devices, you must know the required network settings and be familiar with the associated hardware and software.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 MGCP Gateway and Endpoints The system also supports IP-based solutions for providing local Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) connectivity using the IPRC and a third-party Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) device. For information about currently supported MGCP devices, contact your local authorized Inter-Tel dealer.
System Hardware Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Peer-to-Peer Audio for IP and SIP Devices The P2P audio feature, available in software v8.1 and later, allows certain IP and SIP devices to transmit and receive audio directly with each other rather than through the system cabinet. The P2P feature reduces delay and packet loss for IP and SIP devices.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Hardware Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ITP and SIP Supported Features Users can access most features by entering a feature code using the endpoint’s dialpad buttons. The following table shows the station features (and default feature codes) that are supported for multi-protocol endpoints operating in ITP mode and SIP mode. Support for some features varies by device. For a complete list of supported features refer to the appropriate user guide.

Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ATTENDANT STATIONS Attendant stations can be called by dialing 0 at the stations they serve. Usually, they are also programmed to provide these services: • Central operators for incoming calls • Message centers • Recall stations for unanswered calls Any station can be designated as an Attendant station during database programming. Attendant stations should be equipped with display endpoints to show recall sources.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ONE-ATTENDANT OR MULTIPLE-ATTENDANT OPERATION Each node can be set up with one Attendant or several Attendants, as follows: • One Attendant: One Attendant provides all of the Attendant services listed on the previous page. All trunks (except private trunks) are usually programmed to ring in at this Attendant’s station. • Multiple Attendants: Any or all stations can be programmed as Attendants.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 When a recall rings at the Attendant’s station, a Call or individual trunk button flashes at the medium rate. If the Attendant has calls forwarded, recalls from stations follow internal call forward requests. Recalls do not forward to outside telephone numbers, but recall the Attendant’s station until they are answered or the Abandoned Call timer expires.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 HUNT GROUPS The Hunt Group feature permits calls to be placed to a group of stations and to be automatically transferred to an available station within the group. Up to 75 hunt groups can be programmed in the database. Hunt group lists can contain individual stations and/or extension lists. Non-ACD hunt group stations must reside on the same node; off-node devices must be ACD hunt group members.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 HUNT GROUP CALL PROCESSING Hunt group stations receive the following indications when a call is ringing in: • If an outside call is ringing, the station designated to receive the call first shows ring flash on the associated individual trunk button (if it has one) or a Call button until the call is answered or the No Answer Advance timer expires and the call moves to the next station.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 HUNT GROUPS AND CALL FORWARDING Hunt group programming affects the Call Forwarding feature in the following ways: • Hunt group calls follow unconditional forward: If a station in a hunt group is in the unconditional call forward mode to another station, calls to the hunt group will follow the station forwarding request. A forwarded hunt group call will ring at the forwarding destination until the No Answer Advance timer expires.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 HUNT GROUP REMOVE/REPLACE AND DO-NOT-DISTURB Hunt group members can temporarily stop hunt group calls from ringing at their stations by entering the Hunt Group Remove feature code as described below. (If a station is assigned to more than one hunt group, this halts calls from all hunt groups. Hunt group assignments cannot be removed individually.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 UCD HUNT GROUPS NOTE: The Uniform Call Distribution Hunt Groups premium feature license is required to use UCD features. Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) hunt groups provide additional features to improve hunt group efficiency. The features added when UCD is enabled are as follows: • Announcement and overflow stations pick up unanswered calls when the hunt group stations are busy.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Announcement Stations: When a call rings in or is transferred to a hunt group, the Announcement and Recall timers are started. The incoming call circulates through the hunt group until it is answered or the Announcement timer expires. When this timer expires, the unanswered call is picked up by the designated announcement station which is a playback device that answers the call and plays a message.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Voice Processing System Applications as Announcement/Overflow Stations When a voice processing system application is used as an announcement or overflow station, calls to the application automatically stop circulating through the hunt group if the caller selects a valid digit translation option (such as pressing a digit to select an extension from a Call Routing Announcement menu), and the call is transferred.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Station Monitor Feature for Supervisors The Station Monitor feature allows hunt group supervisors to monitor the calls of anyone in a specified hunt group. It can be useful in training or in evaluating the performance of hunt group members. NOTE: As a courtesy, hunt group members should be notified in advance that their calls may be monitored.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Supervisor Barge-In In previous system versions, the Station Monitor feature allowed hunt group supervisors to monitor the calls of anyone in a specified hunt group. The supervisor entered the Station Monitor feature code (default is 321) to connect to the call and hear both parties, without being heard by either one. With v9.0 or later systems, the Barge-In feature adds new functionality to the existing Station Monitor feature.

Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) can be programmed to distribute hunt group calls to equalize call time or call count among the available members.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 If an extension list is included in an ACD hunt group set for Longest Idle or Balanced Call Count distribution, it will treat each station in the extension list as a separate agent; it will not ring all of the stations on the list at the same time. If the hunt group is set for linear or distributed order, a call will ring all stations on an extension list at the same time when the call reaches that point in the hunt group list.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ACD Agent Login/Logout ACD hunt group members are referred to as “agents.” Agents can log in to and out of the ACD hunt group at any time. While logged in, the agent will receive calls through the ACD hunt group. When the agent is logged out, calls to that ACD hunt group will bypass the station.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 To log in to one or more hunt groups using the ACD agent login feature code: 1. While on- or off-hook (single-line users must lift the handset), enter the ACD Agent Login feature code (326). The display shows AGENT LOGIN ACD NUMBER. 2. Enter the pilot number of the desired ACD hunt group. (Or, you can press to several ACD hunt groups at once.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Restart ACD Idle Time Upon Login Flag The Restart ACD Idle Time Upon Login flag determines where an agent is placed in a longest idle queue when he or she logs back in to a hunt group. When enabled, the agent’s idle time is reset to zero whenever he or she logs in (i.e., that agent will be least likely to receive the next distributed call).
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Group Call Pick-Up When the Group Call Pick-Up feature is enabled, a call ringing in to a hunt group or one of its stations can be picked up at any other station. Users can enter the Reverse Transfer feature code (4) and dial a hunt group’s pilot number to pick up a call that is ringing in to the hunt group’s pilot number or to any station within that hunt group.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ACD HUNT GROUPS SPAN NODES There is a premium feature license called Remote Automatic Call Distribution Hunt Groups. It allows ACD hunt groups to span nodes. Node-spanning ACD hunt groups can have either members or ACD Agent IDs. • Members: ACD hunt group members may include off-node endpoints, off-node single lines, and Hunt Group Member extension lists. • ACD Agent IDs: Unlike members, there are no off-node Agent IDs.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Database Programming ACD hunt groups have options allowing the addition of endpoint off-node devices, single-line off-node devices, and hunt group member extension lists containing local or off-node stations or both. If the Remote Call Distribution Hunt Groups premium feature is not included in the node’s software license, the off-node options will not appear in the list when programming members for ACD hunt groups.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 Maintenance of Node-Spanning Hunt Groups Deletion of ACD Agents is different in version 5.3 or later because agents must be defined globally. In previous versions, deletion of an agent resulted in removal of the agent from any hunt groups in which the agent was a member and also logged the agent out.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 ENABLING THE SEND CAMP-ON NOTIFICATIONS TO MEMBERS IN DND FLAG The Send Camp-On Notifications to Members in DND flag is located under System\Devices and Feature Codes\Hunt Groups\Local\.

System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 If a principal station or a station forwarding point is a member of a hunt group, calls placed to the hunt group’s pilot number are unaffected by system forwarding. The hunt group calls will be received at the station as usual and will not enter the system forwarding path. A call follows only the forwarding path of the principal, even if a forwarding point has a forwarding path of its own.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 HANDSFREE ANNOUNCE SYSTEM FORWARD OPTION When a call is transferred to the principal station by another station user and the principal station's system forward is set for the “no answer” station status, a system-wide option determines what the caller hears, as shown in the table below. Table 26. Handsfree Announce/System Forward Options HANDSFREE ANN. OPTION SYS.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 If a forwarding point has the Call Forward feature enabled, a systemforwarded call will ring at the forward destination until it is answered or the System Forward Advance timer expires; then the call moves on to the next forwarding point.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator If an infinite forward loop results from the combination of manual forwards and system forwarding paths, the station that was originally intended to receive the call will ring, even if the station is in Do-Not-Disturb. System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 INFINITE LOOP CAUSED BY SYSTEM AND MANUAL CALL FORWARD Calls received by this station will not follow the manual forward if other two stations are unavailable.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 UNANSWERED SYSTEM FORWARD CALLS If a call that is following a system forwarding path is not answered or all forwarding points are in Do-Not-Disturb or busy, its final destination depends on the type of call as shown in the table below. Table 27. Unanswered System Forward Calls TYPE OF CALL ALL FWD POINTS ARE BUSY OR DO NOT ANSWER Intercom Rings at the last forwarding point until it is answered or the caller hangs up.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 CALL FORWARDING With call forwarding, a station user can route incoming intercom and outside calls (including direct ring-in calls) to another station, to a hunt group, or to an outside telephone number, if allowed by toll and trunk restrictions. In a network setting, the network allows the user to forward calls to stations or hunt groups on another node. (See also page 271.
System Features Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 If calls are forwarded to a voice processing system application, and the system is unable to communicate with the voice processing system PC, the call will not be forwarded. It will remain at your station. Call forwarding overrides system call forwarding at the principal station.
Inter-Tel® Axxess® Administrator System Features Guide — Issue 11.0, May 2008 FORWARD TO AN OUTSIDE NUMBER When programming a station for call forward to an outside telephone number, a trunk access code is programmed before the telephone number.
