PROGRAMMING PROCEDURES
SECTION 200-255-307
FEBRUARY 1992
8. DSS Console Data Block (Table 7-8)
8.01
The DSS Console
Data Block
(DDSS Pro-
gram)
is used to assign both electronic
and digital
DSS consoles. A maximum
of eight electronic/digital
DSS consoles can be assigned.
Each DSS console
must be assigned to an electronic/digital
telephone
and up to two consoles
may be assigned
to each
electronic/digital
telephone.
Each console
has 60
programmable
buttons, which may be programmed
as either fixed or switched direct station select (DN)
buttons or as feature access buttons. Any electronic/
digital telephone
feature,
except those requiring
a
speech path, can be programmed
onto a DSS con-
sole button (see Table 7-8a). Data for this program is
entered
as follows:
REQ (Request)-Indicates
that the program
has
loaded. Three responses
are possible:
NEW-To
create a new Data Block.
CHG-To
alter an existing Data Block.
OUT-To
delete an existing Data Block.
NOTE:
If OUT is entered,
then only the port number
(POR) needs to be entered
below. No other
en try is necessary.
NBR
(DSS
NumberkDefines
the number
of the
DSS console in the system. There is a maximum
of eight consoles per system.
Enter: DSS number
(0 - 7).
POR (Port
Number)-Identifies
the hardware
loca-
tion of the DSS console circuit that is to be defined
(CNNX/LNNX).
The port number
has two parts,
which are each noted as follows:
1) NN designates
the location
of the PCB on
which the DSS console circuit is installed:
PERCEPTION,:
COO - CO1 or LOO - Lli/
L15 - L26.
CNNX:X=l-4;LNNX:Xz
1, 3, 5, 7.
PERCEPTION,:
LOO - L31.
LNNX:X=1,3,5,7.
2) X designates
the DSS console's associated
circuit number.
Enter: Port number
of the DSS console
(CNNWLNNX).
NOTE:

Electronic
DSS consoles
are assigned
to
the NDSU PCB at port locations
CNNX or
LNNX. Digital DSS consoles are assigned
to the NDKU PCBatportlocations
CNNXor
LNNX.
When using8 DDSSconsoles
on one NDKU
PCB, program
the first four DDSSs
on
circuits I, 3, 5 and 7 on fhe NDKU PCB.
Program the second four DDSSs on circuits
1,3,5and7on
theadjacentslotnextto
the
NDKU PCB.
DDSS (Digital
DSS)-Identifies
if the DSS Console
assigned
is a digital or non-digital
DSS.
Enter: Y (for digital) or N (for electronic).
SPT (Station
Port)-Designates
the electronic/
digital telephone
station that is to be associated
with the DSS console.
Enter: Port number of station (LNNX).
F/S (Fixed or Switched
Operation)-Defines
the
operation
of DSS button assignment
on the con-
sole. Fixed assignment
(F) means that each DSS
console button is permanently
associated
with a
singlestation
DN. Switchedassignment
(S) means
that each DSS console button is variably assigned
and can be changed by a Hundreds
Group button.
For example,
when a Hundreds
Group button ofi
is pressed,
switched
DN keys 00 - 09 become
buttons
200 - 209. When
a Hundreds
Group
button
of B is pressed,
these same buttons
be-
come
buttons
300 - 309. When an electronic/
digital telephone
has two associated
DSS con-
soles, one may be assigned
as switched
and one
may be assigned as fixed. However,
there can be
no mixture
of switched/fixed
functions
on the
same console.
Enter: F or S.
NOTE:

NEWis entered
in response to REQ. To change a programmed
DSS console from Fixed/Switched,
the console
must be deleted and then reprogrammed
KEY (DSS Console
Button)-Defines
the various
buttons
on the DSS console.
Each button
is
assigned
either
to a specific
DN (for fixed
operation),
to a two-digit
number
(for switched
