LG GDK-162 SMDR setup and CDR format

This page shows how to get call records out of the LG GDK-162 into Advanced PBX Data Logger: the connection settings, the parser to select and the 12 fields the logger extracts for reports or a database. The settings apply to our logger; other call accounting software may expect a different configuration.

Quick facts

Pinout and wiring

If the switch #2 on the MPB board is OFF then you should use a cable with the CTS wiret. Default COM port parameters: 8-N-1
To outputs call records you need to use the PGM62 program.
PROG BUTTON 2 - output on/off.
PROG. BUTTON 4 - output of incoming calls on/off.
PROG. BUTTON 6 - COM port baud rate

Configuring a COM port

The COM port number should match the number in your system. You can check the correct port number in Devices Manager → Ports.

1. Add a new configuration with the RS232 data source (if you didn't it before).

2. Select the COM port and configure the communication settings for your PBX corresponding to your PBX settings.

Reports and a database

Once records arrive, the logger writes them to a text file or to any ODBC database in real time, or hands them to the PBX Reports utility for manual, scheduled and e-mailed reports with a built-in web server. See exporting call log data to a database for the database setup.
