Part 3 Planning a PBX 601
Stage 1
Determining the size of the business and the nature of its activities, and ascertain-
ing the customer's knowledge and requirements. This procedure is used to deter-
mine the scope of the system to be supplied and to draw up a rough guideline
quotation.
Stage 2
Precision planning and defining detailed questions, expansion and option needs.
This process is used to specify the operative scope of functions such as authoriza-
tions, direct dialling, organizational structure, definition of terminals, etc.
4.2 Project Manager
The Project Manager (PM) uses the number of terminals and network interfaces
required to calculate and optimize the type of system, the expansion cards and
the cables for the planned system (see PM User’s Guide in the AIMS Information
Manager). In each case it ascertains the most cost-effective system.
The hardware is then correctly assembled, taking into account not only the com-
patibility between components but also memory restrictions, performance consid-
erations and the power supply load. The results are documented in the form of a
price and parts list, a block diagram and a system chart.
Finally the available information is used to generate the system's initial data:
• A subscriber directory, in which the terminals are allocated to the correspond-
ing user-network interfaces, a numbering plan is created, and a set of basic
authorizations is allocated to the subscribers based on the terminal types
• A list of network interfaces
• An abbreviated dialling directory
All three tables can be edited and then read in using AIMS and edited further.

information into the masks of the Project Manager.
