Tools
The following tools are recommended for installing the system:
- A medium-width flatblade screwdriver
- A No. 2 Phillips screwdriver
- A small pair of needlenose pliers
- A small pair of wire cutters
- A sharp, pointed instrument such as a ballpoint pen

Do not use the point of a lead pencil. The graphite can damage a circuit card, and cause problems such as electrical shorts.

Test Equipment
Use the following test equipment when you install a system:
- A volt/ohm meter.
- Two telephones that are connected through the switch. These must be of the same type as the majority of telephones the customer will be using on the system. If the message waiting indicator (MWI) for the Avaya INTUITY system is a lamp, the test telephones must be equipped with a lamp. If the MWI is a stutter tone, they must be able to give the stutter notification.
The two test telephones must be placed so that you can easily see the monitor while you are using them.
- If the system includes Avaya INTUITY FAX Messaging, you must have access to a customer fax machine for testing.
Installation Worksheets
Your project manager or systems consultant will give you a series of worksheets prior to the installation. These worksheets have been completed with input from the customer.
Documentation
Use the following documentation during installation of a system:
- INTUITY AUDIX LX
documentation CD
Use this CD-ROM to familiarize
yourself with installation prerequisites and to perform hardware installation,
initial administration, acceptance testing, and troubleshooting.
- Switch book
There is a book for each
switch that is used with the Avaya INTUITY system. Be sure that you
have the book that corresponds to the switch you are using.
Initial Switch Administration
Before you begin the installation, the switch must be administered to support the following situations:
- Testing each channel connected to the Avaya INTUITY system before assigning the channels to INTUITY AUDIX or another application. During this testing, you must be able to call each channel individually using the ChanTran option.
- Testing the INTUITY AUDIX system with two test subscribers.
- Performing cut to service procedures that provide the subscribers with an active coverage path.
Before you arrive on site, all of the initial switch administration should be complete unless otherwise specified by contract. Verify that this initial administration is complete before you begin work on the Avaya INTUITY system.
