We have taken over a couple of schools that have these systems in them. They are kinda neat looking even have Blaupunkt car stereos in them for music and time.

Anyone have any info/experience with these?

Thanks,

yeah i've been taking some older vodavi systems out and putting XTS in and connecting the roland borg systsems to them anything specific your looking for?

I was specifically trying to figure out how to change the time on the system and also how to adjust the volume level in the class room page zones.

Thanks,

We currently have about 40 Vodavi systems connected to the Rauland Borg Telecenter V system. Unfortunately, we don't handle any of that stuff for them; just the connectivity between the systems. I am pretty sure that most of the functions are touch-tone programmable, but I have seen their technicians with laptops connected for a lot of the programming. Aside from touch tone programming, that's about all that can be done through the Vodavi system; although the serial integration link handles some pretty impressive inter-system communication, there's no processor-to-processor relationship to speak of.

I have seen that all of the schools' principals were given a pretty fancy binder with the administration functions clearly laid out. Maybe you could get one of them to let you borrow and copy it?

Are there Raul-Borg techs coming on site separate from Vodavi techs? I was under the impression it was all done by the same. If it's the case of a Raul-Borg tech, I'll contact them directly and see what can be done on that end.

Suggestions please?

Thanks,

i know the ones that i have recently seen to change the time on it is
1. Hit the trunk that is connected to the system(whatever line you may have used)
2. Dial #55 9the display will read hh:mm
3. type new time in press A for am,P for pm
4. then the correct time is there hit #
5. enter new date and hit # when done.

hope this helps, but i am like ev607797 they are arleady in place we just assign new trunks to them.

Chris:

No, it is a completely separate company from Vodavi and from what I have heard, they have parted ways. I don't think it was a friendly parting either.

We are a Vodavi Gold dealer and nothing was mentioned at last month's dealer conference about furthering the relationship with Rauland-Borg. I have been told recently by a competitor that since their relationship is gone that other systems, like Norstar will soon have the same integration capability that Vodavi has but I don't know for sure.

How come there's always enough time to go back and fix it a second time?

Well I am at the point that I am just going to contact Raul Borg and see if I can get in on a training class to get certified. My employer wants that to happen and if I can find a class and a time that works for all we'll see.

MORE LATER
