Station Administration

• I'm getting an error message, "Unable to create Meridian 1 file." How do I correct this?
• Can phantom phones be created with the OTM Station Administration module?
• Is there a way to create a Read-Only user logon to OTM so that certain users cannot have access to the PBX across the Web, but still can see how items are configured?

Q. I'm getting an error message, "Unable to create Meridian 1 file." How do I correct this?
A. Please refer to: OTM Fix: Unable to Create Meridian 1 File

Q. Can phantom phones be created with the OTM Station Administration module?
A. There are many uses for Phantom phones on a Meridian 1 or Succession Communication Server for Enterprise 1000 system. By creating Phantom Terminal Numbers, administrators are allowed to configure them in software only and with a phantom Directory Number. There is no actual physical hardware. Calls that are made to a phantom DN are redirected to an existing phone via a set feature.

For this to be operational, a Phantom Loop (Superloop) must be configured. This is processed manually via the PBX terminal in Loads 17 or 97. Note: The OTM Overlay Passthru, VT220 System Terminal, or the Web Navigator's Virtual Terminal Server can also be used for direct access to the PBX. In most cases a Superloop will be created in Load 97. Once the loop is created, and the virtual card is added in the OTM Hardware view, the TNs are available for assignment to Phantom phones in the OTM Station Administration module.
