GUIDELINES FOR DPT INTEGRATION
4.1.1
Why DPT Integration is Important
The VPS works well with most PBXs because its connections are made through a standard 
single line (tip/ring) telephone interface. However, the communication between the PBX and 
VPS is best when DPT Integration is used; the VPS is already set up to communicate through 
DPT Integration. 
Once DPT Integration is established, the PBX sends information to the VPS through the data 
link. This information enables the VPS to identify the extension that is calling, know where from 
and why a call is forwarded, and recognise what the caller wants to do. This communication 
allows features that are only available with DPT Integration— several of which are described 
below:
Table 4-1 
DPT INTEGRATION FEATURES
Remote Call Forwarding Set
The subscribers and the Message Manager can 
program their extensions from a remote location to 
forward various types of calls to a desired extension or 
an outside telephone.
Auto Configuration
The VPS knows what extension numbers exist on the 
PBX and creates mailboxes for each extension 
automatically. Also sets the VPS clock with data from 
the PBX clock.
Live Call Screening
Extension users can monitor messages as they are 
being left in the mailbox or intercept if required.
Two-Way Recording
Extension users can record conversations into their 
own mailboxes by pressing one button.
Two-Way Transfer
Extension users can record conversations into 
another person’s mailbox by pressing a button and 
dialling an extension number.
Direct Mailbox Access
The subscriber can directly enter his mailbox when he 
calls the VPS. He does not have to dial his mailbox 
number. 
Trunk Service
(Universal Port)
Each PBX trunk (outside line) group can be assigned 
one of 4 incoming call services: Voice Mail Service, 
Automated Attendant Service, Interview Service and 
Custom Service.
Intercom Paging*
Callers can page subscribers through built-in 
speakers and external paging equipment. For a Caller 
ID Caller, if his name has been recorded for the Caller 
Name Announcement feature, the name will be 
announced at the end of the page.
