modem (you need a programmed Auto Answer All button to allow the
device to answer calls automatically).

Station Message Detail Recording Printer 3
You can connect a Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR) printer to the
SMDR jack on the processor module. You need this printer so that you can use
system programming to get copies of reports about the system.
SMDR captures detailed usage information about incoming and outgoing voice
and data calls and sends the information to a printer. Two SMDR report formats
are available: the factory-set Basic format and the Integrated Services Digital
Network (ISDN) format. Use the ISDN format if you subscribe to an ISDN network
service (such as the AT&T INF02 Automatic Number Identification) or have an
800 GS/LS-ID module and caller identification service from the central office (CO).
If you select the ISDN format during system programming, the number
identification information prints in the CALLED NUMBER field of the call report.
The remainder of the fields are identical to the Basic format.
An SMDR record consists of the following fields:
■ CALL TYPE (Basic or ISDN)
