Station Message Detail Recording 6 (SMDR6)

The Station Message Detail Recording 6 (SMDR6) is a unit that connects to your Norstar Key System Unit (KSU) to record call activity. Each time a telephone call is made to or from your company, the information about the call is recorded. When the call is completed, information about the call is printed out in Call Records

Programming SMDR6

  • Printer: 38400 (press [CHANGE] to set new baudrate)
  • Format: SL-1 or SL-1 CLID (press [SHOW] then [CHANGE])
  • Report: All (output info about all calls)
  • Language: English
  • Access codes: leave unchanged
  • Feature: F999

  • [*] - NEXT
  • [O] - SHOW
  • [#] - CHANGE

Errors

When you use the FEATURE 9 * 2 code you may see some error messages:
INACTIVE FEATURE. That error message indicates that there is a problem with the connection between the phone system and the SMDR6 box. That connection is made using a standard RJ11 telephone cord (the same type of cord you would use to plug a telephone).
PRINTER PROBLEM. This error appears if connection between the SMDR6 unit and a computer is broken or our software is not active. Please, verify the following: cable (you need a straight serial cable, not a NULL cable), a COM port number, baud rate, launch our software on your computer.
