I'm attempting to administer our voicemail via Uadmin 2.0 but haven't had much luck connecting. Here is a list of my equipment and software I'm using to connect. Can anyone tell me if I'm missing something?

- PPTC Serial to Ether adapter
- 6-wire x-over phone cable
- UAdmin 2.0
- Lava Ether Link Manager

Our installer said that all I really need is the 49.00 adapter and a 6-wire x-over phone cable from the ksu to the programming computer. Can anyone verify this?

You should use Uadmin 2.1 , then check your baud rate in Uadmin should be 57600

I was thinking the GVPH in the CIX 40 was 9600 baud like the CTX-28.

You are using a PPTC Serial to Ether adapter because you don't have a serial port on you PC, or because your PC is not in the same area as the phone system? I have never used one, or heard of anyone else using one for the Stratagy voicemails. I know people have had trouble with connecting with USB serial adaptors in the past.

You are connecting the 6 wire X-over cable to the GVPH Voicemail, not the KSU's ethernet adaptor. The voicemail sits behind the processor. Typically, from there you would plug into a PPTC-9 connector which plugs into your PC's 9 pin serial port. In your case it would be the serial-ethernet adaptor.

Run Udmin. Configure to use Com 1. Uadmin can only use com 1 or 2. Connect with your security code.

You may be right newtecky

I thought the 40 needed Xadmin.

Newtecky is right, the 40 is 9600 baud.

I'm right again.

:banana:

When do I get my next star? Ha.

I use Uadmin 2.1 for all Stratagy voicemails now. Been working good so far.

Well, the DOS base ones; the IVP8, GVMU, GVPH, LVMU. Not the Sratagy ES.

There is only Udmin 2.0 and 2.1 on Toshiba's website now. Ver 2.1 inclused the DST update.

Thanks for all the input!
I'll check out my setup and get back to you guys if I still can't get it going!

Thanks again!!

I also get the cryptic handshake rety and I am using Uadim21.

My setup:
serial port connection
9600 baud
server 2003 (same result on XP)

Did you try 57600?

Yes, the handshake retry message comes faster

I am also trying to connect to a CIX40

Does the message mean that the baud rate is wrong or could it be the password?

if you enter the wrong password it will tell you invalid password

What is that?

I think the installer meant a usb to serial adapter if you don't have any serial ports on your pc.

I finally gave up on the direct serial link approach and went with a modem. It seems like the interface for the GVPH1A is a left-over from another box.

PC UART speed was a factor. I ran at 9600, 19200, and 38400 without a problem. Did not try 57600.
