6.1.1 Stations Netwide Data
The Stations tab consists of a table, which is divided into the columns described below. Values for call numbers, DID numbers, and names can be altered by selecting individual fields.
Node call number
If open numbering is set, the call number of the node is displayed here. A station is reached from an external telephone by dialing this node number, followed by the call number or the DID number.
As of HiPath 3000/5000 V5.0, the node number is no longer placed before the DID automati- cally, regardless of whether the recipient is a local CO or tie trunk. The node number must therefore be entered as the PABX number .
6.1.1.1 User-defined columns
The first three columns can be defined by the user. The system offers standard settings for the first two fields, but they can also be overwritten.
Call no. (Call number) column
The Call no. column contains the internal call number of the relevant station. This number may contain a maximum of six digits.
DID (direct inward dialing number) column
The DID number assigned to the corresponding extension is entered in this column. This num- ber may contain a maximum of 11 digits. This is the call number used for DID and CorNet.

You can also configure the stations via the new Station view.>
If a call number if modified in this table, the same modifications must be made in Call Management (Settings | Incoming calls). The tables under Settings | Incoming calls are updated immediately once changesName column
The name assigned to the station is entered here. The name can be a person’s name, the name of a department or any other suitable entry. The name can contain a maximum of 16 characters. The program does not check the characters entered. It is therefore the user or service techni- cian’s responsibility to ensure that only signs permitted are used.
The following ISO 8859-1 characters can be entered:
– Character 32 through 127 (the usual West-European characters, digits, letters) – German Umlauts (Ä, Ö, Ü, ä, ö, ü)
– the characters Å, Æ, Ñ, Ø, Õ, õ.
Characters that are not permitted will be replaced with a space in the display.
When setting language conversion “Greek” or “Cyrillic”, the letters of the Greek or Cyrillic al- phabet can be entered in capital letters.
6.1.1.2 System-specific columns
The system-specific data contained in the previous columns may only be modified by actually reconfiguring the communication system.
Type column (fourth column)
Can only be changed by physically reconfiguring the communication system.
You can specify here whether the call number relates to a station port or group port.
Inactive column
Can only be changed by physically reconfiguring the communication system.
The status of the relevant station port is displayed in the inactive column. If the * symbol ap- pears in this column, the port (station) is inactive. If the field is empty, the port is active.

Type column (sixth column)
Can only be changed by physically reconfiguring the communication system.
The type of telephone connected to the station port is automatically specified by the communi- cation system. If a telephone is not connected, No Port is displayed in the column. If an analog telephone is connected, the entry "P.O.T." appears in the column.
– No Port, i.e. no telephone connected – P.O.T., i.e. analog telephone connected – System telephone connected
– S0 station Access column
Can only be changed by physically reconfiguring the communication system.
The name, number and slot of the station system card is displayed here. This column also in- dicates whether the port is a master or a slave.
System column
Can only be changed by physically reconfiguring the communication system. This column indicates the network node where the station is located.
6.1.1.3 Network name field
The network name designates the name of the networked system. The configuration is saved under the network name with the suffix *.net. The network name has no significance for the op- eration of the networked system, but is only used for transparency.

LCR Support
LCR Support is intended only for Customer Service. Requirements for LCR Support:
>
This column is often not fully visible. In order to see all entries, use the horizontal scroll function or reduce the width of the other columns by moving the column sep- arators.LCR Support can be used to generate dial plan proposals in an Excel table for each individual node of the network with respect to the availability of the stations at the remaining nodes in the network. An Excel file is created in the process with as many tables as the nodes on the net- work. The names of the tables (= titles of the tabs visible in Excel at the bottom left of the screen) are identified by the names of the CDBs of the nodes.
The rest of the structure in the table depends on the type of numbering for nodes on the net- work. A distinction can be made here between closed and open numbering.
The generated proposal must be saved as an Excel file. A Save As dialog box appears after the generation for this purpose. This dialog box defaults to directory of the HiPath 3000 Man- ager and the name of the network. The file type filter is preset to .xls and can only be changed to All Files (*.*). If an existing file is to be overwritten, an appropriate dialog box with a prompt to this effect is displayed by Excel (which runs in the background).
The file generated by Excel using this method can then be opened, and the dial plan proposals can be transferred to the respective CDBs.
Closed numbering Every table consists of 3 columns (Excel columns A, B and C). The first column (A) lists all internal call numbers of the processed node (detectable from the table name), sorted in ascending order. The second column (B) lists all internal call numbers of the remain- ing nodes, sorted in ascending order.
The third column (C) lists the resulting proposals for the dial plan of the node, also sorted in ascending order. Note that only "-" and "x" are used here, since the dial plan proposals need to be transparent and easy to understand. If required, the full internal call numbers are listed.
Open numbering In this case, the tables consist of only one column (A) in which the node call numbers of the remaining nodes are listed with a leading "-" and a closing "z".

The default option enabled in this dialog box is Excel file will NOT be saved, and the older information in the Excel file named No, which means that the generated <network_name>.xls is retained. This also applies if the operation is aborted usingsettings01.fm

Check
Ensure that you have not assigned the same station number or DID number to two or more sta- tions by pressing the Check button to initiate a check. If duplicates are found, an error message is displayed together with a list of the duplicates. You can then make appropriate corrections. When assigning call numbers in the communication system to S0 stations, the closing digits of this number must be unique in relation to all internal call numbers of all other stations (for ex- ample: The S0 call number 9553193 conflicts with the station call number 193.).
