Simplified Message Desk Interface (SMDI) ShoreTel Voice Mail
ShoreTel Voice Mail If this application server is to function as a voice mail server
for a legacy PBX, check this box.
Trunk Group Select the trunk group to be used by the legacy PBX for
voice mail traffic.
COM Port (1-10) This is the COM port used by SMDI.
Message Desk Number
(1-999)
The Message Desk default is 1. Valid values are 1 through
999. Set the number that the voice mail system expects.
This parameter is most often set to one, since only one
system will be using the SMDI link. In some configurations,
however, a number of SMDI links can be daisy-chained
together and the Message Desk Number value is used to
allow each system to know which data belongs to it.
Number of Digits
(2-32)
This field sets the number of digits the ShoreTel system
sends in the SMDI extension fields. Set this number to the
value the voice mail system expects, most commonly 7 or
10. If the number of digits and the ShoreTel system
extension value differ, the extension number is padded. For
example, if ShoreTel needs to send extension 456 and the
Number of Digits field is equal to 7, extension 0000456 is
sent. If no padding is desired, the Number of Digits field
would be set to 2 in this example. Then, only 456 is sent.
Translation Table Select a translation table from the drop-down list. For
information on creating translation tables, see “Digit
Translation Tables” on page 2-6.
Use for Call Data This check box indicates that the digit translation table is to
be used for call data, when checked. Both Translation Table
boxes may be checked at the same time.
Use for MWI Data This check box indicates that the digit translation table is to
be used for Message Waiting Indicator data, when checked.
Both Translation Table boxes may be checked at the same
time.
