Vodavi Starplus, XTS and Vertical SBX SMDR formats

Advanced PBX Data Logger includes 3 parsers for Vodavi and Vertical 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 32 fields in total that these parsers extract for PBX Reports or a database. 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.

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.
