NEC SV9300 SMDR setup and CDR format

This page shows how to get call records out of the NEC SV9300 into Advanced PBX Data Logger: the connection settings, the parser to select and the 27 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

NEC SV9300

This PBX can output SMDR data using the TCP/IP interface.

Our software acts as an SMDR terminal and communicates with the CPU blade in the main unit. Therefore, in the communication settings, set the IP address to connect to the address specified by system data (CM0B YYY=0XX/1XX>00), and the application port number shown in the above table. The PBX outputs data using the fixed TCP port #60010.

The SMDR settings should be adjusted on your PBX. Please, pay attention to the SMDR message format.

Additionally, it would help if you verified that the device number and parity type (CM08 > 827, CM08 > 828) in the PBX settings match the parser's corresponding.

Fine tuning: LAN Address Type

Configure SMDR Device Destination (Address Type). This setting designates where the system will deliver billing information. By default, our software uses the default address 0.

Command: CM08 > 01
0: SMDR terminal via LAN Port (Default/Most common)
1: SMDR terminal via RS-232C Port2.

Fine tuning: Parity type

Configure Parity Verification (Enable/Disable). This determines whether a parity bit check is active for text transmissions. By default, PBX Data Logger does not use parity checking.

Command: CM08 > 827
0: Not Provided (None/No parity).
1: Provided (Enables check and the parity type is determined by the next step).

If you enabled parity in the step above, use the following command to configure the parity type.

Command: CM08 > 828
0: Odd Parity
1: Even Parity

Go to "Modules → Query Parse Filter → Data query → Click "Setup" and configure the corresponding option in the parser settings.

Settings from the manufacturer's documentation

Taken from NEC SV9300-SMDR-MCI-PMS-InterfaceSpec-V3, NEC SV9300 UNIVERGE Programming Manual v8, NEC SV9300-SMDR-InterfaceSpec-V3, NEC SV9300-SMDR-InterfaceSpec-V3-Extended. Values are those stated in the documentation; confirm them against your firmware release.

Switching SMDR output on, as documented

1. Set the SMDR terminal destination to the PBX IP address from CM0B Y=0XX/1XX>00 and TCP port 60010
2. Select IP interface for SMDR via CM0B Y=001>92 (0=Maintenance Port, 1=VOIP Port)
3. Select message format for SMDR via CM04 Y=01 (RS-232C) or Y=01>08 (IP): values include Extended 2400 IMS Format variants and Former 2400 IMS Format
4. For RS-232C output, assign port function via CM40 Y=00 second data 14 (SMDR) or 11 (MCI and SMDR)
5. Billing data can be output from RS-232C Port1 or Port2, but only one RS-232C SMDR device may be connected

Record format notes

• Combined manual title is 'SMDR/MCI/PMS Interface Specifications'; Chapter 1 = SMDR, Chapter 2 = MCI, Chapters 3-4 = PMS (hotel front desk)
• Extended format record runs fields 001-176 (adds ANI info, Advice of Charge, and a Time-of-Start-Incoming-Calls sub-record); Former format record is shorter and lacks these
• Legend for record prefix characters: SA=Station Address ('0'), UA=Unit Address ('!'), K=Entry Index, type-of-record letter follows (A/E/B for Former format, H/I/J for Extended format)
• PMS chapters (3-4) are explicitly hospitality/front-desk features (guest room status, maid status, check-in, guest name, DID for guest stations), not generic call accounting
• SMDR-on-IP protocol frames are NEC-proprietary messages (Data Request/Sending Data/Server Response/Client Response/Status Monitoring) sent over the TCP 60010 socket
• PBX must respond to a Data Request within 10 seconds by default (adjustable 1-30s) or the client re-requests and eventually resets the connection

Configuring PBX Data Logger as a TCP client

Our software should work in the TCP client mode. It means that our software will initiate connection with the PBX and the PBX will work as a server. Add one or several PBX IP addresses here (the IP address of the NEC SV9300). The port number should match the port that you have defined within the PBX (60010 in the example below).

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

2. Configure the TCP settings as shown below.

60010

192.168.1.220:60010

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.
