- Larger Line and Station Capacity: The ACS R7 processor comes pre-equipped with
5 CO Lines and 9 ETR Station Ports.
- Flexible Paging Port: You may now use any available CO Line Port as a Loudspeaker
Paging Port. The "dedicated" Paging port is now used for CO Line 5. However, if your
customers paging system requires a dry contact relay, you must use CO Line port 5
on the processor module.
- Faster Processor: The ACS R7 has a dramatically improved processor (more MIPS per
second), setting the stage for future enhancements and applications.
- On-Board Backup and Restore Capability: With the new non-volatile memory, the
ACS R7 allows you to do manual and automatic programming backups to the
processor module, eliminating the need to have the Remote Access Card (which is
now no longer included with the ACS R7 processor module.) Additionally, every time
you enter the Programming Mode (FEATURE 00), the ACS R7 assumes you are making
changes and will do an Automatic Backup at 3AM the following morning.
- Dedicated Administration Port: To further simplify administration of the PARTNER ACS R7
system, we've now provided an Administration port on the processor. Simply
connect your desktop or laptop to this port via the PC's serial connection, and using
the free ACS R7 PC Administration software program, you can easily administer the ACS
R7 system. This eliminates the "dial-up" and connection issues you may have
experienced with older ACS releases. If remote administration is still required, then you
will need to order the optional Remote Access Card, or connect an external modem
to the Administration port.
- 10/100 Ethernet Port: An Ethernet port has also been added to the PARTNER ACS R7
processor, reserved for future use.
-Enhanced PC Administration Software: The PC Administration software has been
enhanced to reflect the new functionality.
