Siemens Hipath-3700 SMDR setup and CDR format
This page shows how to get call records out of the Siemens Hipath-3700 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.

Configure your PBX using the programming software, like HiPath 3000 Manager.
Go to: System status – Call charges – Output format (fig. 2)

Output format: LAN-TCP-Client
MRAT: none
Change LAN settings (fig. 3):
IP address: 192.168.1.1 (IP address of your computer with Advanced PBX Data Logger)
TCP port: 1080 (recommended)

Advanced PBX Data Logger
Configure our software to the TCP server mode (fig. 4). Please, note that you should specify the same IP address and port as in the LAN settings. 0.0.0.0 means that the program will listen on all available network interfaces.

Date format
Verify that the date format in the parser and in your PBX are identical.

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.

Siemens programming software
Siemens HiPath 3000 systems (3350, 3500, 3550, 3700, 3750, 3800) are programmed with HiPath 3000 Manager E, which comes from Siemens, Unify or your dealer, not from AGG Software. Call data recording is switched on there; PBX Data Logger receives the records.
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.
