5 Serial Interface
The serial interface included in UPAC makes it possible to receive pagings from external
equipment and send them to handsets in the system. Note that the handset must be
defined as a messaging user, see 4.1 Add Users on page 12.
The serial interface supports the ESPA 4.4.4 protocol and two ESPA dialects; the Ascom
dialect (teleCOURIER) and Ericsson dialect with some limitations, refer to Appendix F. The
serial interface also supports a simplified protocol called the Ascom Line protocol. A
detailed description of the two ESPA dialects and the Ascom Line protocol can be found in
the document; Protocol, Serial Data Interface S942SI, TD 92088GB.
Cables for the connections are found in Appendix B: RJ45 Connections on page 84.
