The Siemens Realitis/Hipath DX sends CIL information via a serial connection. You will need to directly connect a serial cable from the Siemens Hipath DX v.24 wall box to the PC that NetPBX is installed and running on.

You will need to speak to your system maintainer to enable CIL output. They will need to set CIL output to Full or unrestricted CIL format.
