Introduction
Dear customer!
In order to install your new PBX please contact an authorized dealer.
The case may only be opened by authorized personnel1
Installation work on the open case are only allowed to exe-
cute by authorized personnel1.
The COMmander Basic is a PBX that is designed for the connection to
the digital telecommunications network ISDN (Point-to-Point connec-
tion and/or Point-to-Multipoint connection). It enables the switching from
the public communication net to different internal devices. The so-called
terminals may be system telephones, ISDN devices as well as analog
devices.
The ISDN devices (e.g. ISDN telephones, ISDN PC-controllers) should
be certified Euro-ISDN devices in order to guarantee a proper function-
ality. The analog subscriber connections enable the connection of most
pulse dialling, dual-tone multifrequency dialling and also of CLIP com-
patible units (telephone, fax machine, answering machine, modems).
Devices with dual-tone multifrequency dialling must have a FLASH key
(also called signal key R).
The COMmander Basic has a modular design. Due to special modules
it can be extended step by step, if you are in need of more subscriber
connections and S0ports than are in the basic unit or if you like to oper-
ate your door terminal device from any internal telephone.
Thanks to functions like e.g. Short-Code Dialling, conference, splitting
and internal free of charge connections the COMmander Basic makes
the daily telephone communication simple, comfortable and time sav-
ing. Additional to the telephoning the COMmander Basic offers numer-
ous functions such as call charge recording.
In case of an extension with a COMmander 2TSM analog module the
connection to a door terminal device as well as different switching func-
tions will be available to you.
The COMmander Basic can be configured to your special personal
requirements with the configuration software COMset. Three further PC
programs allow to comfortable manage call charge data, Short-Code
Dialling, call allowances, wake-up calls, Music on Hold and the data for
the automatic Least Cost Routing.
The scope of functions described here is only completely usa-
ble with a professional installation and a correct configuration
of the PBX and the connected PC. We highly recommend to
consult your authorized dealer first.
Please ask your network operator about the availability of some ISDN
service attributes. Some of these functions may be available for an extra
fee.
There may be incompatibilities in combination with terminals and
devices of other vendors, that adversely influence the usability of func-
tions.
To fully utilize the scope of functions described here, the PBX system
must have the Software version 1.6A and the system telephone must
have the software version 2.0H or newer (you may receive information
about these versions via system telephone). If this is not the case,
please perform a firmware update of the respective device.

2. An S0port contains two voice/data channels. Therefore two connections are
possible on an S0port at the same time. If two internal ISDN subscribers talk
together on one internal S0port, there will be two connections.
