3.2.1 Overview
In the Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server system, a software key is
represented by an alphanumeric string of characters, which opens functions. Two software
keys correspond to each Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server system:
- the PRINC (PRINCIPAL) software key or MAIN for the system functions (voice, Internet,
etc.)
- the CTI Software key for the CTI functions
The software key corresponds to a text file where the name is the CPU hardware number with
the .MSL (MAIN key) or .CSL (CTI key) extension.
Example:
file 000068DA.msl and 000068DA.csl for main CPU no. 000068DA.
Each system needs the Main and CTI Software keys even if no CTI application is used on the
system.
The systems can be delivered with a key that is already personalized for the client. The
Distributor needs to load if necessary the personalized key on the non-factory-configured
systems.
On starting up the system, different cases are possible:
- The functions needed by the customer are open and work properly: the software key
present on the system is correct.
- The functions needed are not open
- The key is valid but some functions are not open (verification done by MMC).
• Verify that the order meets the client's needs. If not, contact the orders" department. A
new software key needs to be created including the new features.
• When loading the key via OMC a warning message is displayed. In this case the
functionalities may be limited due to insufficient memory (Hard disk or XMEM) or CPU
power.
- The software key present on the system is not correct:
• The software key syntax is correct but it does not match the CPU's serial number. The
system functions correctly with all its functionalities for 30 days. A message " Software
Key Error " is displayed on the Operator terminal. Press the Alarm key to show the
expiry date. When loading a correct key (valid CPU serial number) during this period,
the system state is normal. If no correct key is loaded after 30 days, the system will
restart in limited state with only sets belonging to the Operator group working, all other
sets being out of service; the "Software key error" is displayed on the operator station.
• The software key syntax is incorrect. The system starts in limited mode. When loading
the correct Software key (with the correct serial number), the system restarts with all
functions working.
• New control starting with R2.0:
• The software key syntax is correct, but the software key does not match the
system's software release. The system functions correctly with all its functionalities
for 30 days.
• The software key syntax is correct, the software release is correct but a more
recent key has already been entered on this system and it is not possible to revert
to a previous key. The system functions correctly with all its functionalities for 30
days.
Remark:
For a system in limited mode, when a valid software key is loaded, the system restarts with all its func-
tionalities.
If the hardware required to carry out the functions that have been opened by the software key
is not present, the functions available are automatically reduced to suit the available hardware;
and error message is displayed when the key is implemented.
The values of the various functions controlled by the key can be viewed at any moment:
- Using OMC, select Typical Modification -> System -> Software key
- Click on Details: the first column indicates the functions defined by the key, the second
column indicates the functions actually open (after any reductions).

4.1 Presentation
4.1.1 Overview
4.1.1.1 LOCATION OF UNIT
The Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server unit can be installed in three
ways:
1. Fixed directly to the wall: a kit is available for wall-mounting Rack1 and Rack2 models.
2. Mounted in a rack: the unit is mounted in the rack using the fixing brackets supplied by the
rack manufacturer, or using the optional 19" mounting kit (a kit is available for each module
type).
3. Placed on a table: no more than three units can be laid on top of each other.
Remark:
The OmniPCX Office Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Compact Edition CS unit is fixed either directly to
the wall, or to a wall support (US version). In both cases, use the hole drilling template supplied with the
unit.
Recommendations
Before installing the system in a 19" rack, you must verify that:
- The maximum static load (given by the manufacturer) of the 19" rack is greater than the
overall weight of the equipment mounted or to be mounted in the rack.
- Moreover, the weight of the equipment must be evenly distributed between the brackets.
- If mounting the Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server module results in
exceeding the load on the front supports (generally the total weight divided by two), the
module must be placed on a fixed tray attached to the four supports of the rack.
4.1.1.2 ENVIRONMENT
4.1.1.2.1 Climatic conditions
- Operation
• Temperature: for maximum reliability, it is recommended you comply with an ambient
temperature of between 5 and 40 degrees Celsius, with a maximum variation of 5
degrees Celsius per hour.
• Humidity: the humidity must be in the range 10% - 80% (no condensation) with a
maximum variation of 10% per hour.
- Storage
• Temperature: the temperature must be kept between -20 and +70 degrees Celsius.
• Humidity: the humidity must be kept in the range 10 - 95% (no condensation).
4.1.1.2.2 Vibration
No vibration, even intermittent, may be transmitted to the equipment when running.
4.1.1.2.3 Site
- Choose a dry, clean and well ventilated location.
- Maintain an ambient air flow to ensure normal ventilation. If the air flow is blocked or
restricted, of the incoming air is too hot, overheating is possible.
- When installing he equipment in an enclosed 19" rack, verify that the rack is provided with
a fan suited to the heat dissipation of the equipment installed. Maintain a minimum gap of 3
cm around the side ventilation holes (left and right sides), and of 10 cm minimum around
the ventilation holes at the rear of the equipment. Verify that the air flow is not impeded on
the sides of the rack.
- When fixing the system directly to the wall using the wall-mounting kit (Rack1 and Rack2
only), maintain a free space of at least 15 cm around the whole system. Ensure that no
objects are placed on the upper part of the system to restrict the extraction of hot air. When
installing several units, it is preferable to align then horizontally. When superposing them
vertically, they should be separated by at least 10 cm.
- Verify that the cables connecting the Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication
Server or other equipment, or the supports for the housing structure (19" rack for example)
do not obstruct the air flow through the unit.
- A switchable 230 V or 110 V mains socket (according to country) - 50Hz (LNE) is required
at less than 1 m from the unit unless it is installed in a rack in which case the integrated
circuit breaker is used.
- Adequate lighting must be provided.
Remark:
the CPU-2 and MIX boards used for Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server Alcatel-Lu-
cent OmniPCX Office Compact Edition CS have the same characteristics as those used by Alcatel-Lu-
cent OmniPCX Office Communication Server.

4.2.1.4 CONNECTING TERMINALS
4.2.1.4.1 Connection of Alcatel Reflexes terminals
The terminals are equipped with a cable and a self-acting switch that plugs into the wall
socket. Each terminal is connected up by a pair of 0.5 or 0.6 mm diameter wires.
Caution:
In T0 Point-to-Point installations, the Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server sys-
tem MUST BE the terminating element of the bus and any other terminating resistor MUST BE re-
moved.
Caution:
The AFU-1 board (daughter board of the CPU board) must obligatorily be fitted to detect the ab-
sence of power.
The ISDN-EFM box must be installed as close as possible to the system (3 m maximum). All
the box connections are made with straight RJ45-RJ45 cables.
Output connector functions:
- BRA: connection of T0 access to be forwarded.
- NT: Connection of ISDN network termination.
- S0: connection of forwarding S0 station.
- CPU: connection of the AUDOUT connector of the CPU board.
- AUX: connection of Audio out, Alarm, General bell and 12 V use auxiliaries; since AUX is a
copy of the CPU/CPUe board's AUX1, see sheet "CPU/CPUe boards" for connection
recommendations.
The PRA board is connected to a digital line termination (DLT) by 2 symmetrical twisted pairs.
Cable impedance: 120 Ohms +/- 20% between 200kHz and 1MHz; 120 Ohms +/- 10% at 1
MHz.
Remark:
We recommend using an L120-series cable (or the L204 equivalent).
The distance T1-DLT or T2-DLT is limited by the amount of loss between the DLT and T1/T2,
which must not exceed 6 dB at 1024 kHz.

4.7.1.5 INTERACTIONS
Interactions with other features
IBS DECT and IBS PWT (Personal Wireless Telecommunications) cannot run together on the
same system. The first IBS plugged determines the system type (DECT or PWT).
To switch from one system to another, unplug all IBSs, make a warm restart and plug in the
IBSs.
Interactions with other applications
IBSs are fully compatible with other wireless technologies such as VOWLAN.
Interactions with other software releases
OmniPCX Office release 5.1 requires 4 kinds of DECT initialization: Europe, Latin America,
United-States and China. See also: § IBS CONFIGURATION .
4.7.1.6 LIMITS
Number of IBSs: 20 IBSs per cabinet is recommended, however, the number of IBSs is only
restricted by the available power.
DECT link limit: 3 links on an IBS with one UA access, 6 links on an IBS with 2 UA accesses.
DECT handset limit: up to 120 handsets on a system.
4.7.1.7 PERFORMANCE AND QUALITY
IBSs are downloaded during the system start phase or when hot plugged. A system with many
IBSs plugged might take longer to complete the start phase.
Downloading 1 IBS takes about 30 seconds. It takes more time when several IBSs are
plugged on the same UA resource.
The end of restart is only possible after all the devices have been taken into account.
If an IBS downloading fails, the IBS restarts with the previously installed software.
4.7.1.8 IBS CONFIGURATION
There is no hardware configuration for IBS other than selecting between an external power
supply for each IBS and remote power by system.
Note 1:
The ARI Number is the only non plug and play device on the IBS.
The default configuration fits with the major systems. Modifications should answer to specific needs.
Line length
The Line length is the cable length used to plug the IBS to the system (distance between the
IBS and OmniPCX Office). It enables the system to add a delay in signal and to avoid a shift in
clock signal that creates a reset of the IBS.
- 1 In OMC, go to Users/Base stations List.
- 2 Select the IBS Master and click Details
There are 3 possibilities of configuration:
- Short line (0-400 meters)

Due to hardware, there is a limit in the number of channels that you can configure.
You can configure the following numbers of channels:
- DECT EUROPE, LATAM, CHINA: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10 channels
- DECT US: 1, 2, 4, 5 channels
- PWT: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 channels
4.7.1.9 Initialization
Once the IBS finishes the downloading, the system starts the initialization.
The system synchronizes the signals of the IBSs so that handovers are possible. The system
selects the T0, T2, or CPU main board clock as the source.
Then the system sends the following data:
- Fixed part capabilities (Full slot, frequency control, page repetition, setup on dummy, basic
A field setup): value sent = 0x007910
- Line length: Short line
- Frequency plan (2 bytes)
Some countries have shifted DECT frequencies. In order to be compatible with all frequency
bands in the different countries, 4 types of initialization of frequency plans are available:
Europe, Latin America, The United-States and China.

International recommendations include a safety margin for the public and take account of
possible measuring variations.
SAR values
- Set: as the average power emitted from a set is lower than 20mW, the set is considered to
comply without having to undergo any tests (see: EN 50371). The SAR value for DECT
sets (e.g.: Mobile Reflexes) is not significant.
- Base station: the local SAR (head and chest) on 10g of body tissue for DECT base
stations (e.g.: 4070) is lower than 0.5 W/kg (this is with an integrated omni-directional
antenna).
4.7.2.2.2 ANTENNAE CHARACTERISTICS
Integrated antennae
The following is a list of characteristics for integrated antennae:
- Bandwidth: 1.88 to 1.93 Ghz
- Impedance: 50 Ohms
- TOS: 1.5:1
- Gain: 3 dBi (maximum)
- Polarization: vertical (axis of the antenna)
- Width of the beam at 3 dB (vertical): 90º
- Radiation diagram: omni-directional in the horizontal plane.
External antennae
According to the ETSI EN 301 406 standard, DECT antenna gain is limited to 12 dB +/-3dB. In
the case of external directional antennae, if a minimum safety distance of 50 cm is respected,
the SAR value is the same as the value obtained in the case of an integrated omni-directional
antenna (and therefore, lower than: 0.5 W/kg).
4.7.2.2.3 CONFORMANCE PERIMETER FOR EXPOSURE OF THE PUBLIC
- Integrated omni-directional antennae: no limit for the conformance perimeter
- External antenna (directional): the installation must allow for a safety perimeter respecting
a minimum distance of 50 cm.
4.7.2.3 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
4.7.2.3.1 Standard Topology.
The various building infrastructures are grouped into three types of geometric shape.
The distances quoted below give an idea of typical range of a base station. It is clear that a
rectangular zone requires more base stations to provide full coverage.
4.7.2.3.2 Layout technique
For structures with a number of floors, different solutions can be envisaged as a function of:
- the coverage obtained at each level.
- the position of the Alcatel-Lucent 4070 IO/EO (higher or lower level).
Installation examples
2ndfloor 2ndfloor
The technique used is overlapping the location of base stations from one level to another. This
technique can be used for alternate floors if the coverage of a level can be achieved from an
adjacent level.
4.7.2.3.3 Coverage depending on the infrastructure
The solution proposed alternates two stations per floor with overlapping locations from one

7.1.1 Maintenance
This module provides maintenance advice on different hardware components of the
Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server system.
7.1.1.1 BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Office Communication Server systems (except the Alcatel-Lucent
OmniPCX Office Compact Edition CS) are supplied with internal batteries that provide back-up
power in the event of a mains power failure. Alternatively, all systems may be optionally
equipped with an external battery pack to provide back-up power.
To guarantee system shutdown without data loss in the event of a mains power failure or if the
mains plug is unplugged from the wall socket, replace the batteries every two years. This
maintenance operation is vital to guarantee sufficient power autonomy to allow the files to be
saved before the system shuts down.
Before replacing batteries, the system must be powered down and the power cable removed
from the mains supply.
- To replace internal batteries, the rear panel of the system cabinet must be removed and
the battery drawer pulled out.
- To replace external batteries, the external battery box must be opened.
To maintain a good balance, replace all the batteries at the same time with
batteries of the same type, from the same manufacturer and from the same batch.
Make sure you respect the correct polarities when replacing batteries. There is a
risk of explosion if the batteries are incorrectly replaced. Used batteries must be
disposed of according to the battery manufacturer's instructions.
The batteries are supplied uncharged. File saving in the event of a power failure can only be
guaranteed once the batteries have been charged; that is, about 12 hours after turning on the
system (CPU-1/CPU-2/CPU-3/CPUe-1/CPUe-2 switch in ON position).
7.1.1.1.1 Internal battery characteristics
- number: 1 (Rack 1), 2 in parallel (Rack 2) or 3 in series (Rack 3)
- sealed lead battery
- 1,2 Ah / 12 V
- fire resistance better than or equal to UL94-V2
7.1.1.1.2 External battery characteristics
- number: up to 2 for CE and Compact Edition 2nd Generation, up to 3 for S and M systems,
up to 6 for L systems
from your body. When holding a board, always wear a grounding device such as a grounded wrist
strap, and do not touch board components that are sensitive to static charge.
Before attempting board installation/exchange, note the following system rules concerning the
detection of boards:
- A detected board is considered to be PRESENT
- A PRESENT board can be ACCEPTED or REFUSED, depending on the system
dimensioning criteria
- On a cold reset, all PRESENT boards are taken into account (irrespective of whether they
are ACCEPTED or REFUSED)
- A board which is PRESENT on a cold reset can later be determined as ABSENT on a
warm reset if in the meantime the board has been unplugged or there has been a board
detection failure
- After a cold or warm reset, new boards are always taken into account and declared as
PRESENT (and then ACCEPTED or REFUSED)
The following table describes situations more specifically relevant to plugging/unplugging
boards.
Situation Description
A board is plugged into a slot never before The board is detected as PRESENT and then
occupied determined to be ACCEPTED or REFUSED
A board is replaced with another board of (according to configuration criteria, such as
the same type authorized positions and maximum hardware
capacity). If the board is accepted, its accesses
are taken into account depending on the system
dimensioning criteria.
A board is replaced with another board of a As above, except when the replacement board is
different type plugged in, configuration data for the previous
board is cleared.
A PRESENT and ACCEPTED board is The board's disappearance is detected and the
unplugged board is considered as out of order and then
ABSENT. However, configuration data
associated with the unplugged board remains
available.
A PRESENT and REFUSED board is The board's disappearance is detected and the
unplugged board is considered as ABSENT. However,
configuration data associated with the unplugged
board remains available.
2. Locate the required vacant slot in the cabinet and remove the metal plate for this slot.
3. Taking anti-static precautions (for example, by wearing a grounded wrist strap), pick up the
new board and plug it into the vacant slot.
4. Secure the end-plate of the board to the cabinet with the screw provided.
5. If you have stopped and powered down the system, reconnect it to the mains power supply
and restart it.
6. Perform any configuration and/or tests required for the new board.
Note 2:
Following configuration in the OMC tool, you may be required to perform a warm reset of the system for
the configuration changes to take effect. In this case, the software will prompt you to perform the warm
reset.
- Always wear a discharge device (bracelet, heel clip, etc.) to protect against electrostatic
discharges.
- Avoid any knocks to the hard disk
- Do not touch the connector
- Handle the disk by holding it by the sides
7.1.1.6.2 Storage
- All hard disks must be stored in an electrostatic protective bag
- Avoid contact between hard disks
- Do not pile them up (even when packed)
7.1.1.6.3 Transport.
- A hard disk can only be transported when packed in an electrostatic protective bag
- Avoid contact between hard disks
- Use standard packaging suited to transporting hard disks
