DX-120 Programming Manual BASIC SYSTEM PROGRAMMING TASKS
Assigning the DSS Port/Owner
The Attendant/Extension DSS console is a self-contained digital terminal that interacts with a predetermined DET. The
console has 64 programmable buttons that can be used for easy access to the DX-120 system’s many CO lines,
extensions, and features.
All sixty-four (64) buttons on the DSS console have dual colored LEDs that allow status monitoring of system resources
such as CO lines and extensions.
Although usually considered to be an attendant feature benefit, the DSS console can be assigned to any DX-120 DET.
You can add a maximum of 12 sixty-four-button Attendant/Extension consoles to the system. Each requires its own
dedicated digital port, and therefore reduces the number of DETs that you can connect to the system on a one-to-one
basis.
• The following conditions apply when assigning DSS port owners.
- Each DSS console has 64 dual-color LED buttons
- Each DSS console requires its own dedicated cable pair from the KSU.
- You can assign up to 12 DSS consoles in the DX-120 system.
- You can assign to any DET a maximum of four Attendant/extension DSS consoles.
NOTE
Each DSS is “mapped” with a default button arrangement.
