ISDN port, not just 911 calls, to be recognized and processed by the 9145 as if they were

911 calls.
Place a test call from a PBX station that should route the call to the ISDN-PRI port. Observe

the front panel Call in Progress indicator to verify that it is Green, indicating the test call is

being processed. This proves that the PBX is routing/sending calls to the system. If the 911

Call in Progress indicator does not illuminate Green, the PBX configuration must be

modified for proper routing to the ISDN-PRI port.
After calls are routing to the 9145, verify correct call record information by retrieving the

Event Log file. Set the Number Dialed for Emergency: to either a test number (e.g. ‘711’)

or ‘911’. This will cause the system to process calls only from the test number or 911.

Repeat the above test call sequence to verify that the PBX is sending the expected called

number field on the ISDN-PRI port.
Verify that all 9145 front panel status indicators are indicating normal or idle operation

after the test call has been disconnected. The above steps have proven that:

The PBX is routing calls to the ISDN-PRI port.

The PBX ISDN-PRI connection is configured correctly and functional.

The 9145 is configured correctly and functional.

After calls have been verified from the PBX to the 9145, the Telco Network circuits that

connect to the 911 Network can be tested.
Place a test call from a PBX station that should route calls to the ISDN-PRI port. Observe

the front panel 911 Call in Progress indicator to verify that it is Green, indicating the test

call is being processed. This proves that the PBX is routing/sending calls to the system. The

call should be sent into the 911 Network and ringback tone should be heard from the PSAP.

Upon answer by the 911 Call Taker, indicate that this is a test call and ask for the display

ANI.

NOTE – Do not hang up on the 911 Call Taker without conversing.

Using the Administration PC and Event Log viewer, verify the correct call record

information including ANI by retrieving the Event Log file. If test calls from the PBX to the

9145 have been verified to be working, yet test calls do not process to the 911 call taker, the

Telco Network may not be functioning correctly.

Whenever live 911 calls are made to the 911 Call Taker, the displayed ANI should be

requested, recorded, and then verified against the station number and ANI in the Event

Log. The ANI sent to the 911 Call Taker from the 9145 comes out of the Station Table data

residing in the 9145.
If the ANI that is displayed to the Call Taker is not the expected or desired ANI, retrieve the

Station Table data and the Event Log from the 9145. There are four causes for incorrect

ANI:

1.

Incorrect or no station entry in the 9145 Station Table (database).

2.

Incorrect station number sent from the PBX to the 9145.
