Toshiba DK PRI Programming Cheat Sheet

DK PRI Programming:

Remember, to get into programming mode you need to be using the program station on ‘port 005′ on a DK280/424.

To enter program mode on an idle phone, press the following combination on the dial pad:

* + # + * + # + 1 + * + 2 + * + 3 + Speaker + Program Number + Hold + Speaker + Program Values + Hold

Pressing Hold is how you store changes. 

To Exit a program, press the following combination on the dial pad:

Speaker + # + # + Hold then press Speaker + Next Program Number + Hold

To Exit programming altogether, just press Speaker + # + # + Hold again.

To begin, know your CO type. Most Northern Telecom DMS ISDN switches follow the ‘Custom’ protocol, sometimes referred to as National ISDN Standard 1 (NI1). However, some DMS ISDN switches are NI2. Most other CO switches follow the NI2 standard.

Since there are a few ways to program the DK, I’ve provided a pdf that can walk you through all the programs needed.  You can download it here:

  You need to be a registered user to download this file.

   

Next you need to decide how you want to program the trunks.

• Programming for ISDN DID Type Call – Page 1 & 2 (Uses program *09 for call routing)
• Programming for ISDN DNIS Type Call – Page 3 & 4 (Uses programs 71 for call routing)
• Programming for ISDN LDN Type Call – Page 4 (Not sure as I’ve never used this method)

I personally prefer to use DNIS (Program 71) as it allows for more flexibility on where my numbers ring to, i.e. phantom stations, ring groups, etc.

Also, make note that program *66-5 is normally wildcarded with a *.  I found on one particluar install that it would not take and even though my s/w for the CPU was 4.0, I needed to upgrade my CPU for this program to take.

Another major note is that the DK has a vulnerability/limitation where if the carrier sends calling party name, incoming calls will not route.  Make sure you have the carrier disable this function.

Good luck!
