Acceptance Test and Cut-to-Service Administration

Overview

To run acceptance tests and cut the Intuity AUDIX system into service, you must perform the following two tasks:

• Administer the coverage path.
• Administer the subscriber stations.
   
  

  Do not administer subscribers on the switch until the Intuity AUDIX system is installed and you are ready to provide messaging services to system subscribers.

Purpose

This section explains how to administer the switch to perform acceptance tests for the Intuity AUDIX system and to cut the system over to service.

Administration Procedures

Whether carrying out the acceptance tests or cutting to service, the same two procedures must be completed:

• Administer the coverage path.
• Administer the subscriber stations.

For acceptance tests, you must:

• Administer two test stations.
• Assign Call Coverage paths to those stations.
• Run the acceptance tests.
• Remove the test stations when testing is complete.

See Performing Acceptance Testing for acceptance testing procedures.

For cut-to-service, you must:

• Administer all of the subscriber stations on the switch.
• Assign Call Coverage paths to those stations.
• Perform the following cut-to-service procedures:
• Setting up alarm origination
• Doing a backup
• Preparing the system for unattended backups

See Alarm Origination, Attended Backups, and Unattended Backups for procedures.

The sample screens used in this section show DEFINITY ECS screens. All of the supported switches use screens that appear similar to these screens. The text explains any differences between the switch screens.

Assign the Call Coverage Path

Define a call coverage path for the subscribers with the Intuity AUDIX hunt group as a coverage point. You might need to define several call coverage paths, depending on how the customer wants to handle call coverage for different groups of subscribers. If the Intuity AUDIX system has been integrated with an existing switch, you might need to add the Intuity AUDIX hunt group as another coverage point for existing coverage paths.

Use the following procedure to define a call coverage path:

1. Log in to the switch by entering the craft or inads user ID.
2. Enter your password.
3. Enter the correct terminal type.

The system displays the command prompt.

4. Enter add coverage path coverage path number at the enter command prompt. See Worksheet F: Call Coverage Path in Switch Integration Planning to find the call coverage path number.

The system displays the Coverage Path Screen.

5. Use Worksheet F: Call Coverage Path in Switch Integration Planning to enter the correct values in the fields on the Coverage Path screen.
6. Press ENTER to save your changes.
7. Continue with Modify the Station Screen for Each Subscriber.

Modify the Station Screen for Each Subscriber

After you administer the call coverage path, you must administer the subscriber stations (only two, if you are doing acceptance testing). Each subscriber station must contain the correct information for the Intuity AUDIX system to operate. Use the instructions in this section to administer the stations.

1. Enter change station test station extension at the enter command prompt.

See Adding Test Subscribers for more information about adding test subscribers.
 


Note: If you receive the message <station extension> Identifier not assigned, you entered a station extension that does not exist in the system. Use the add station command to add the subscriber station.

The system displays the Station Screen, Page 1.

2. Enter the coverage path you created for the Intuity AUDIX system in Assign the Call Coverage Path above. If you do not remember the coverage path number, see Worksheet F: Call Coverage Path, in Switch Integration Planning.
3. Press NEXTPAGE to move to Page 2.

The system displays the Station Screen, Page 2.

4. Enter AUDIX in the LWC Reception field.
5. Enter y in the LWC Activation field if the subscriber is assigned the Leave Word Calling feature.
6. Enter y in the Redirect Notification field.
7. Enter led, neon, or audible in the Message Waiting Indicator: field if the voice terminal has a message waiting indicator (MWI) lamp. This instruction applies to 500, 2500, and 7104A telephones only.
8. Press ENTER to save your changes.
9. Repeat this procedure for the two test stations or the subscriber stations.
