Configuring your CIL output

CIL access over Ethernet

In addition to CIL access over V.24 ports, all Realitis DX and iSDX systems with firmware revision 6.0 and above can send their CIL information by Ethernet. The System/UPI card - ACI - only allows a maximum of three such connections; subsequent connection requests are rejected.

To set up and activate this feature, a request must be made to Product Management at Siemens, Beeston.

Connecting to the CIL server

To connect to the CIL server on the System/UPI cards, TIM Plus opens a TCP connection to the IP address of the phone system to the CIL port.

The IP address of the System/UPI card is specified by the variable  in the permanent database. Your local maintenance engineer would normally program this address.

The default listening port is .

Once a connection is established, the DX will begin sending packets to TIM Plus.
