SMDI (Simplified Msg Desk Interface)
The system may employ SMDI protocol to communicate with an adjunct AA/VM system. When
a call is routed to an AA/VM SLT port, the system will send SMDI messages over the assigned
SMDI RS-232 port, informing the AA/VM of the characteristics of the call.
SMDI Protocol - There are three types of SMDI messages (listed below). Within each message
is an "Action Code", which defines the function or required action of the AA/VM system. Fields
within the messages also define the called/calling station and station status. The various
message types and definition of the fields are shown in the chart below.
- Type I message: cr lf MD ggg mmmm a xxxxxxxxx sp yyyyyyyyy sp cr lf^Y
- Type II message: cr lf MD ggg mmmm a xxxxxxxxx sp sp cr lf^Y
- Type III message: cr lf MD ggg mmmm a sp yyyyyyyyy sp cr lf^Y
