These instructions help you configure your Aastra BP phone system to work with TIM Plus. Contact your system maintainer if you are not familiar with the configuration of your PBX.

Configuring your SMDR

For your SMDR configuration, please note that Aastra Intelligate Series has multiple output formats. For TIM Plus, the output will need to be configured to  format.

Below are some screenshots examples of how the Aastra Intelligate should be configured.

Setting the SMDR format to PC5

Setting the SMDR format to TCP/IP

OIP Server and TIM Plus

The OIP server has a very basic 'call logging' module. If you are intending on installing TIM Plus along side the OAI server you need to uninstall the 'call logging' module from the OIP server suit. If you do not uninstall this, you will find that if you configure your Aastra to output to the TIM Plus PC, the OIP server will overwrite it with its required settings.
