Step 9:
Connect the APSXMTR Power supply to a standard 110V AC outlet. The PWR/BAT LED on
the bottom of the APSXMTR unit should light.
Step 10:
Connect the two RJ-11 telephone cables to the ports labeled LINE1 and LINE2 on the bottom
of the APS120 or APS360 Controller unit. DO NOT connect the telephone cables to LINE3. LINE3 is
not available for use in the APS 120 system.
Step 11:
Connect the other end of each telephone cable to a standard analog station port on your PBX.
These ports shall be used to access the paging function of the APS120 or APS360 system. Note these
extension numbers. If possible they may be placed in a ‘hunt group’ or in a reciprocal rollover group.
This allows the use of a single ‘hunt’ number to access either of the two lines.
Step 12: Once all of the above connections have been made run a simple test. Call the analog
extension associated with LINE1 or LINE2. The APS120 or APS360 should answer and begin to play
the main greeting. Choose the paging option by pressing “1”. Then enter the pager id 103. Follow this
with a numeric message. Once the prompt is completed the pager numbered 103 should receive a
page containing the input digits. If this testis successful for each line then the unit is operating properly.
If there is any problem, first check and verify all of the connections. If the problem persists please
contact the SMDS 1(800) 242-2121.
Operation:
The operation of the APS120 or APS360 is very simple. The unit is pre-loaded with the APS Basic
Database. This database supports a maximum of 120 or 360 pagers. Each pager may have a user
name recorded in the Controller unit. The name is played as part of the confirmation process. In the
event that no name is recorded the pager number alone is played as part of the confirmation process.
Sending A Page:
A caller arriving at the APS120 or APS360 is greeted with a pre-recorded announcement. This
announcement is customizable.
●
Upon pressing 1 the caller is prompted to enter in the pager id number to be paged.
● Enter the pager number by pressing the proper DTMF keys - a ‘#’ key may be pressed to speed
up the process.
●
Enter your numeric message, up to a maximum of 20 digits - a '#' key may be pressed to speed up
the process.
