Introduction to Norstar Voice Mail FAX
1
Norstar Voice Mail FAX provides Norstar Voice Mail with fax functionality. This
installation guide is intended for the installer of Norstar Voice Mail FAX and
describes how the FAX option should be installed and prepared for operation.
Norstar Voice Mail FAX can be installed on systems equipped with either a Media
Services Base Interface Card (BIC) or Digital Voice Cards (DVC)s. The procedures
for installing the Digital Fax Card (DFC) differs between the systems. Follow the
instruction on which system you have installed.
The installer is responsible for:
•
•
•
installing the DFC
connecting the DFC to the DVCs or BIC
enabling the FAX software
FAX overview
The Norstar Voice Mail FAX software is factory installed on the Norstar
Applications Module (NAM). The FAX software must be enabled after the DFC is
installed.
The FAX option provides Norstar Voice Mail with the following features:
•
•
•
•
•
Fax Mail – Faxes received from external fax machines are stored in personal
mailboxes
Fax Answering – Faxes received from external fax machines are automatically
sent to a predefined fax extension
Fax-on-demand – An external caller can request a fax to be sent to them from a
Fax-on-demand Mailbox
Fax Overflow – When the office fax machine is unavailable for use, faxes can
be temporarily stored in a fax Overflow Mailbox and printed later
Fax System Group Message (Fax Broadcast) – A Fax System Group Message
can be sent whenever you want to notify a special group, by way of a fax, of a
pending event or company notice
To print fax documents from a Fax Overflow Mailbox, the fax machine must be
connected to the same Norstar system as the NAM. To print a fax document from a
Personal Mailbox, the fax machine does not need to be connected to a Norstar
system. A fax machine may also be required for loading fax documents in a Fax-
on-demand Mailbox.

Introduction to Norstar Voice Mail FAX 3
DFC overview
The Digital Fax Card (DFC) is installed in an expansion bus slot on the Norstar
Application Module (NAM) and supports four Fax Channels.
There are no Time Compression Multiplexing (TCM) connections to the DFC. The
DFC uses the Voice Channels on the Digital Voice Cards (DVCs) or BIC to connect
the Fax Channels to fax machines or a call.
Note: When Norstar Voice Mail FAX is using a Voice Channel to connect to the
fax machine or a caller, that Voice Channel cannot be used by other users
until the FAX function is complete.
Specifications
The DFC is an AT bus compatible card that provides:
•
•
•
•
•
•
9600 baud with auto-step-down to 7200, 4800 and 2400 bps
DTMF generate and detect
error correction mode
fine and normal image resolution
V.21, V.27, V.29, T.4 (MH&MR), T.6 (MMR), T.30 protocols
four Group III analog Fax Channels
Special tools
Before you begin replacing or upgrading the components, ensure you have the
following equipment:
•
•
•
•
#2 Phillips head screwdriver with a 3.5 in. long blade
3/16 in. slot screwdriver
an antistatic grounding strap
3/16 in. nut driver (recommended)
You may also need the Norstar Applications Module Installation and Maintenance
Manual. The Norstar Applications Module Installation and Maintenance Manual
is included on the Norstar Voice Mail 4.0 Documentation and Client Software CD-
ROM. All the Norstar Voice Mail Installation Manuals on the CD-ROM are
protected by the password: Norstar99.
CAUTION
You must wear an antistatic grounding strap at all times when handling
electronic components. Failure to do so may result in damage to the equipment.

4 Introduction to Norstar Voice Mail FAX
Precautions
Before installing or upgrading a DFC, you must take the following precautions:
•
•
•
Shut down the Norstar Voice Mail system—A shutdown procedure allows
Norstar Voice Mail to perform all necessary shutdown activities before power
is removed. For more information, refer to "Shutting down the Norstar Voice
Unplug the NAM power cord—The NAM power supply contains high
voltage. If you do not unplug the power cord, you may severely injure yourself.
Also, if cards are installed or removed from the NAM before the power cord is
unplugged, the cards and/or the NAM may be damaged.
Wear an antistatic ground strap—Static electricity can damage the
components on the cards and the NAM. Always wear a properly grounded
antistatic strap while handling the DFC, DVC, BIC or any other Norstar Voice
Mail component. Ground yourself by attaching one end of the grounding strap
to your wrist and the other end to a grounded metal surface.
Enabling the FAX software
instructions on how to enable the FAX option.
After FAX capability is added to Norstar Voice Mail, you can add or customize Fax
Overflow and Fax-on-demand information. For more information about
customizing the FAX software, refer to the Norstar Voice Mail FAX Set Up and
Operation Guide.

Only one DFC can be installed in the Norstar Applications Module (NAM). The
DFC connects to the DVCs through the PCM Expansion Bus (PEB) cable. This
cable must be connected from the DFC to each DVC. The PEB cable connects the
DFC to the DVC to share the ports connected to Norstar.
The following section provides step-by-step instructions for the installation of the
FAX software, a DFC and the PEB cable in a Norstar Voice Mail system equipped
with Digital Voice Cards (DVC)s. For information on installing a DFC in a
