INTRODUCTION
Attendant Monitor Operations Manual
What is Attendant Monitor?
Overview
Attendant Monitor is an application that will accumulate attendant statistics when
attendant consoles are used in a stand alone environment. Attendant Monitor serves
as the event collector for the Attendant Console Statistics application, detecting
events generated by the attendants and the PBX, and sending messages to the
Attendant Console Statistics Logger component. The Logger parses the messages
and saves the statistic data in an Informix Database. The data is then used to
generate attendant statistic reports.
Note: Attendant Monitor is not required if Attendant Console Statistics is used with the
Hospitality Center System (HCS) or the Medical Center System (MCS), since
these applications serve as event collectors.
The following diagram illustrates how Attendant Monitor interfaces with the
Attendant Console Statistics application.

INSTALLATION & CONFIGURATION
Chapter 2 INSTALLATION & CONFIGURATION
This chapter provides a step-by-step description of the installation, initial
configuration, and Main Menu functions for Attendant Monitor. Before proceeding
with the configuration, ensure that the SCO UNIX operating system and the
Applications Manager (APM) platform software are installed on the system.
The Applications Manager Operations Manual provides detailed instructions for
using the APM menus and for completing the data entry screens illustrated in this
manual. NEAX2400 IMS system manuals provide the procedures for making the
data assignments at the NEAX MAT.
Installation Procedure
This section describes the procedures to install the Attendant Monitor application
software. Follow the procedure below to install the software.
Note: Some keyboards use a marked Return key for the carriage return function. Other
keyboards mark this function key as Enter. The installation procedure will iden-
tify this function as Return (Enter). When the procedure indicates, use the appro-
priate marked key on your particular keyboard.
To begin the Attendant Monitor
software installation, type apmadm at
login: apmadm
password:
the UNIX login prompt and press
Enter.
(If your “apmadm” account requires a
password, enter the “apmadm”
password at the subsequent password
prompt.)

Database Support
Attendant Monitor requires two APM databases: the Attendant Monitor database
and the Tenant Number Database. These databases are created with default values
during initial software installation, but specific records must be added before
Attendant Monitor is enabled.
Attendant Monitor
Database
The Attendant Monitor database (attmon) consists of a Master Database file
component and an Application Database file component.
Master Database File - filename ’attmon’.
The attmon master database structure and example entries are shown in the table

Field Definitions

The Monitor Number field specifies the monitor number the attendant will
dial to log on and log off the system.
The Attendant Name field specifies the attendant name that will be used in
attendant reports.
The TTY field specifies the unique TTY device used by the attendant. Since
stand alone attendants do not use an actual TTY device, the monitored
number value may be entered again in this field to ensure that the TTY value
is unique.
-
The Supervisor Flag fields specifies if the attendant is a supervisor. It may
be set to ‘Y’ or ‘y’ to indicate the attendant is a supervisor, or to ‘N’ or ‘n’
to indicate the attendant is not a supervisor.
Application Database File - filename ’Attmon’.

Database (cont)
The database is initially blank. It must be configured before the Attendant Monitor
application can operate. The database values are set using the APM Applications
Manager Main Menu-- Selecting the Application Configuration option. The
general sequence is the following:
1. Build a Master Database File
Enter data into the master database fields to add the necessary Monitored
Number, Attendant Name, TTY, and Supervisor Flag values for Attendant
Monitor.
2. Process the Application Database
Use the Process Application Databases option on the APM Database
Administration menu to create the application database file.
(When the Process option is activated, data is drawn from the master database
and converted to the formats specified in the application definition file.)
3. Install the Application Database
Use the Install Application Databases option on the APM Database
Administration menu to enable Attendant Monitor to copy its database.
Note: Refer to the APM Operations Manual for more detailed instructions on adding a
database.
AMNO: PBX assignment of Monitored Number
Each monitored number that is specified in the Attendant Monitor database must
be created on the PBX using the AMNO command.
Note: Refer to the NEAX2400 IMS system manuals for detailed procedures for making
the data assignments at the NEAX MAT.

Tenant Number
Database
The Tenant Database is an APM database used by the Attendant Monitor
application and other OAI applications. It provides a mechanism for retrieving the
tenant number of an extension.
The Tenant Number database consists of a Master Database file component and an
Application Database file component:
Master Database File - filename ’tenant_m’.
The tenant_m master database structure and example entries are shown in the table

Field Definitions
-
The Tenant Number field contains the Tenant Number that is used by one
or more extensions. Tenant Numbers are associated with extensions using
the following methods:
-
A Tenant Number may be associated with a set of extensions defined by the
First and Last Extension fields. The First Extension field contains the
smallest extension number in the set, and the Last Extension field contains
the largest extension number in the set.
-
-
A Tenant Number may be associated with a single extension by setting the
First and Last Extension fields to the same extension value.
A Tenant Number may be associated with a single extension that contains a
non-numeric character such as ’*’ or ’#’. The First Extension field contains
the extension value, and the Last Extension field is left blank.
Application Database File - filename ’tenants’.

Component
The Attendant Monitor component must be initialized from the APM. Follow the
steps below to initialize the AttendantMonitor component:
-
-
On the APM System Operations Menu, select the Non-CRT Application
Control option.
Use the Initialize command to start up the “AttendantMonitor” component.
This completes the Atendant Monitor application installation and
configuration...

ADMINISTRATOR TASKS
Chapter 3 ADMINISTRATOR TASKS
A change of attendant personnel or changes to monitored numbers will require the
databases used by Attendant Monitor to be modified. Specific database records
must be modified to reflect these changes. The following must be changed:
•
Attendant Monitor Database to reflect changes to attendant names, num-
bers, or other values.
•
•
AMNO command to make changes on the PBX.
Tenant Number Database for any changes to numbers.
Perform the following procedures to make changes to the Attendant Monitor
databases:
Note: Refer to the procedural instructions in the APM Operations Manual. If you en-
counter messages during this process, refer to the “Process” and “Error Messag-
es” chapters of the APM Operations Manual.
Attendant Monitor Database Records
Perform the following steps to add, modify, or delete records:
1. Build a Master Database File
Enter data into the master database fields to change the Monitored Number,
Attendant Name, TTY, or Supervisor Flag values.
2. Process the Application Database
Use the Process Application Databases option on the APM Database
Administration menu to create the application database file.
(When the Process option is activated, data is drawn from the master database
and converted to the formats specified in the application definition file.)
3. Install the Application Database
Use the Install Application Databases option on the APM Database
Administration menu to enable Attendant Monitor to copy its database.
AMNO: PBX assignment of Monitored Number
Any monitored number that is added, changed, or deleted in the Attendant Monitor
database must be so modified on the PBX using the AMNO command.
Note: Refer to the NEAX2400 IMS system manuals for detailed procedures for making
the data assignments at the NEAX MAT.
