NEC Electra Elite, Aspire, DS2000, XN120 SMDR formats

Advanced PBX Data Logger includes 13 parsers for NEC systems. This page gathers them in one place. For each system you will find how the call records reach the logger, the parser to select, and the 193 fields in total that these parsers extract for PBX Reports or a database. Of these, 3 over RS-232, 1 over TCP client; the rest are identified by their record layout and can arrive over a serial port or a LAN connection. The settings apply to our logger; other call accounting software may expect a different configuration.

Connecting the logger

Add a data source in PBX Data Logger that matches the interface named in each section: RS232 for a serial SMDR port, TCP client when the PBX accepts connections, TCP server when the PBX pushes records to the logger, or FTP for systems that write CDR files. Then open Modules → Query Parse Filter → Data query, click Setup and select the parser named in the section. The general steps are shown on the SMDR listener page; every other supported system is listed on the supported PBX index.

NEC 2000 IVS Series

Parser: NEC 2000 IVS Series
Connection: Serial. The SMDR or printer port of the PBX is connected to a COM port; speed, data bits, parity and flow control must match the PBX.
Fields extracted: 13

The Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) feature allows the system to send a raw data of the trunk outgoing/incoming call information. The SMDR data can be received by a personal computer (PC) which is running Advanced PBX Data Logger with the RS232 data source. The NEAX 2000 IVS provides two sources of SMDR output - one is via the Main Processor (MP) built-in SMDR, and the other is the SMDR via the Application Processor (AP00).

Call information is sent out from the MP or AP00 to the PBX Logger when each call is completed. If the PBX Logger is not connected to the system or if the logger is not ready for receiving information, the call information is temporarily stored in the MP or AP00. As soon as the PBX Data Logger becomes ready to receive information, the call information temporarily stored in the MP or AP00 is sent out to the PBX Data Logger.

MP Built-in SMDR

The Built-in SMDR consists of the MP and the external SMDR terminal.

The MP card stores various kinds of information on an event basis. When a call is completed, the MP sends out the call information for that specific call to the PBX Logger. If the PBX Logger is not ready to receive information (Busy Status), the MP temporarily stores the call information into its internal memory. When the number of the call records stored in the MP reaches the maximum, new call records will be lost. Note: the call record memory will be cleared by MP reset.

Nec DS1000/DS2000

When connecting SMDR in DS2000, use cable P/N 80893 and adaptor P/N 85980 to connect the 8-pin DIN connector on the CPU to the 9-pin COM port on the customer-provided laptop or data collection device. In DS1000, use adaptor P/N 85980 and a Mod-8 patch cord to connect the system's RS-232-C jack to the 9-pin COM port on a customer-provided laptop or data collection device. By default, the data rate is 19200 baud (9600 baud in Fixed Slot), 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity (typically referred to as 19200 8N1)

Program #0301 - Operator Options - CPU Baud Rate
- 1 (2400)
- 2 (4800)
- 3 (9600)
- 4 (19200)
- 5 (38400)

By pressing Ctr+Break you can see the available baud rates.
- SMDR Port
- set it to 1 to enable SMDR
- Print SMDR Header (optional)
- set it to N in order to skip not needed headers

Program #10001 - Print SMDR - set it to Y in order to enable reports for calls on trunks

We mention that by default our application is disabling the CPU debug information when it opens the communication with the PBX unit in order to reduce same the storage space needed for the calls.

In our application please select the same baud rate as the pbx, new line separator CR, 8 data bits, parity none, 1 stop bit and hardware flow control.

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.
