Considerations and Constraints 63
You can connect only one CAT to the system.
CAT Basic can store information about as many as 1,200 calls for 100 extensions
and 49 lines.
CAT Plus/Business can store information about as many as 6,500 calls made
from up to 200 telephones that share up to 49 lines. When 90 percent of this
capacity is reached and 5,850 of these calls have been processed, reports are
printed and memory is cleared. Any calls that come in during this process are held
until reports are printed again.
System Programming 63

â– Select Basic or ISDN call report format. Select ISDN if you want ANI or
Caller ID information reported.
â– Specify the minimum call length to be recorded (10 seconds is
recommended).
â– Specify whether information is to be recorded for both incoming and
outgoing calls or for only outgoing calls.
