NiceCall Focus III Signal Flow

NiceCall Focus III Signal Flow

Recording Signal Flow

Referring to Figure 1-2, the recording signal flow operates as follows:

1. The audio enters NiceCall Focus III via its interface board, which extracts the selected audio channels and performs front-end DSP operations (such as, Energy Detection).

2. The audio is transmitted via the PCI bus to the CPU. The CPU board receives the audio, compresses and then saves the audio on the hard disk drive, and gives operating commands to the interface boards.

3. The CPU archives the audio from the hard disk drive to the archiving device.

NiceCall Focus III Installation and Configuration Guide (Rev. A2)

Preinstallation Considerations

Preinstallation Considerations Following are considerations prior to installing NiceCall Focus III:

• Networking Considerations

If NiceCall Focus III, workstations, and a stand-alone Ethernet-TCP/IP network segment are supplied by NICE Systems, network information does not need to be gathered. However, if the customer supplies workstations and/or networking, you must verify that all of the listed networking requirements are met.

• Materials Inspection

Verify that all required NICE and third-party components are present, in the correct quantity, and without signs of damage.

• Environmental Considerations

The location of NiceCall Focus III must be determined before the system is installed. For more information, see Environmental Considerations on page 21.

• Power Supply. NiceCall Focus III includes one of three optional power supplies.

• AC Single - 400W full range power supply with power factor correction, 100 ~ 240V ±10%, 60/50 Hz (± 3Hz) single phase.

• AC Hot-Swap Redundant - 400W, hot-swappable, 1+1 redundant power supply with power factor correction, 100~240 VAC ±10%, 60/50Hz (± 3Hz). We recommend supplying two power supply inputs from two independent sources.

• DC Hot-Swap Redundant - 350W hot-swappable, provides telephony power supply input for -48V DC (-36V to -72V), 1+1 redundancy. We recommend supplying two power supply inputs from two independent -48V DC sources. Important: Verify that the input current to this power supply is provided through a 70A circuit breaker.

• UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). We highly recommend that each power supply unit be connected to a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) system - 500VA minimum per unit, offline/online, not the interactive type (smart guard line interactive is acceptable).

For sites where PABX inputs will be recorded, it is recommended that the maximum UPS backup time equal that of the UPS system used for the site’s PABX.

IMPORTANT• If your site does not include a suitable UPS system, in the event of a power failure, vital

audio will not be recorded. In sites using a UPS system, the UPS system should be installed according to the instructions provided with the UPS components. A NiceLog reseller should install the UPS system only in sites where such an agreement is contractual. Otherwise, UPS systems should be installed only by qualified personnel contracted by the customer.

• Do not simultaneously power-up more than one machine at the same time. Power-up currents are significantly higher than steady-state currents!

• If other equipment is installed on the same rack, do not power up more than one machine simultaneously!

Preinstallation Considerations

Environmental Considerations

Location Considerations

This section describes optimal location conditions for NiceCall Focus III:

• Unit racks must be installed as near as possible to the PABX.

• Do not position NiceCall Focus III in locations prone to excesses of heat or humidity, such as near heaters or heating system outputs, or in direct sunlight. Avoid positioning NiceCall Focus III in excessively damp or dry environments, as extremes of humidity can damage the unit’s internal components.

Conditions for NiceCall Focus III should be maintained as follows:

• Operating Temperature: 5o - 35o C (41o - 95o F)

Optimal Range: 18o - 21o C (64o - 70o F)

• Operating Relative Humidity: 20% to 80%

Optimal Range: 45% to 50%

• NiceCall Focus III must be installed in a clean, well-ventilated, air conditioned, room. If adequate ventilation is not provided, the unit can overheat.

• Do not position NiceCall Focus III near strong magnetic fields, such as near transformers, or other electrical equipment.

• Due to the sensitivity of the data that is handled by NiceCall Focus III, place the unit in a locked room to which only authorized personnel have access. And if possible, lock the rack to which the unit is mounted.

• Do not position NiceCall Focus III where people are likely to eat or drink, as liquids can damage the unit’s internal components.

• Do not position NiceCall Focus III in an area where people smoke.

• Dirt (e.g., dust particles, smoke) near NiceCall Focus III can cause damage. Do not position NiceCall Focus III near doors or walkways that are used frequently, on or close to the floor, or near any surfaces that tend to collect dust. Do not position the unit near printers or paper products that create dust.

• The room where NiceCall Focus III is located should be cleaned regularly. If the general environment is dirty, consider installing an air cleaning system.

• Avoid carpets and furnishings with synthetic materials, if possible, in the area where the NiceCall Focus III will be positioned. If static is likely to be a problem, place anti-static mats around the working area. Be careful when bringing objects near the unit, which can hold a large static charge; avoid unnecessary plastic or paper products in the area.

NOTE: Working in the optimal range is necessary for long life expectancy. We do not recommend running NiceCall Focus III outside the optimal range for long periods of time.

NiceCall Focus III Installation and Configuration Guide (Rev. A2)

Preinstallation Considerations

Space Requirement Guidelines

Each NiceCall Focus III unit is a rack-mountable unit, with the following dimensions:

• Width = 19" (480 mm).

• Depth = 21.8" (553 mm) including the handles.

• Height = 7" (180 mm), 4U.

• Weight - Up to 55 lbs (25 kg) in full configuration.

Each NiceCall Focus III unit can be installed in a standard 19" ventilated rack.

• Verify that the units can be installed so that the front and rear vents will not be blocked: allow approximately 4" (100 mm) of clearance in the front and rear of each unit.

• If the rack has doors, make sure that the doors have holes enabling cool air to pass through to the unit. Without holes, warm air from the rear of the unit could circulate and cause it to overheat.

• If the units are going to be rack-mounted, verify that there is a fixed shelf or fixed L-shaped rails for each unit to rest on.

• Verify that there is enough space in each rack for patch panels, cabling and/or other optional components that will be installed.

Unpacking

Before you begin the installation process, unpack the shipment and check all parts against the packing list.

Verify that no parts were damaged in transit.

If NiceCall Focus III peripheral equipment is required, such as patch panels or signal coupling boxes, check that all their accessories are present.

Mounting NiceCall Focus III on a Rack

Before placing NiceCall Focus III in a permanent position, inspect it for physical signs of damage. If it appears that the chassis is damaged, contact your NICE Systems dealer. The unit’s permanent location must meet the requirements described in Environmental Considerations on page 21.

To install NiceCall Focus III on a 19" rack:

1. Carefully place the unit on a fixed shelf or fixed L-shaped rails in the 19" rack, supporting the box’s weight from the bottom of its chassis.

2. Verify that there is enough space in the rack for proper ventilation:

• In closed racks, leave at least 4” (100 mm) in the front and rear of the unit. In addition, verify that both front and rear doors have sufficient ventilation holes (distributed evenly on the surface of the doors).

• Leave at least 1U space between NiceCall Focus III and other machines in the rack.

3. Verify that there is enough space for patch panels, cables, and other rack-mounted units (for example, Ethernet hubs).

4. Screw the unit to the rack using the four mounting holes on the front panel of the chassis.

WARNINGAlways mount NiceCall Focus III using a fixed shelf or L-shaped rails. NiceCall Focus III must be supported from the bottom. The four screws used to fasten the unit to the front of the rack are not sufficient to bear the weight of the unit.

NOTE: Always use blank panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack. This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blank panels results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

NiceCall Focus III Installation and Configuration Guide (Rev. A2)

Connecting Analog Input

Referring to Figure 3-1, NiceCall Focus III interfaces 2-wire analog input using the ALI PCI board. The ALI PCI board can interface up to 24 2-wire analog lines. Each NiceCall Focus III unit can hold up to two (2) ALI PCI interface boards. Therefore, each unit can provide recording for up to 48 2-wire analog lines.

For a list of the pinouts for the 2-wire interface, see ALI PCI Interface Board Pinouts on page 34.

High Impedance 4-Wire Analog Telephone Interface

The 4-wire interface is used for interconnection with telephone lines where one pair of wires carries one direction of the conversation and the other pair carries the other direction of the conversation. The 4-wire interface implements analog summation of both TX and RX lines into a single channel.

Figure 3-2 provides a schematic illustration of NiceCall Focus III’s high-impedance 4-wire interface.

Figure 3-2 ALI PCI Interfacing 4-Wire Analog Input

Referring to Figure 3-2, the NiceCall Focus III interfaces 4-wire analog input using the ALI PCI board. Each ALI PCI board can interface up to 12 RX, TX pairs. The wires are interfaced sequentially, which means that the RX and TX pairs for line 1 are interfaced first, then the RX and TX pairs for line 2, etc. Each NiceCall Focus III unit can hold up to four (4) ALI PCI interface boards, and provide recording for up to 48 4-wire analog lines.

For a list of the pinouts for the 4-wire interface, see ALI PCI Interface Board Pinouts on page 34.

NOTE: When connecting certain digital extensions from a panel on the PABX or from telephone sets with proprietary digital protocols, you can use commercially available D/A converters (can be purchased from NICE Systems) to convert each digital extension to a 2-wire analog input. Continue installation for normal 2-wire analog inputs.

Connecting Analog Input

Non-Telephony Equipment Interface

The ALI PCI board can be used for recording non-telephony equipment such as microphones, radio receivers and other similar equipment. You need to configure the board for high impedance or as 600 ohm termination according to the non-telephony equipment specifications. To configure the ALI PCI board for 600 ohm, close jumpers JP5-JP28. To configure the ALI PCI board for high impedance, leave jumpers JP5-JP28 open.

Depending on your equipment, you then connect the input as you would connect the 2-wire or 4-wire analog input (described above).

Determining Cable Lengths for the Analog Interface

This section describes the required cable lengths for the analog interface.

Referring to Figure 3-3, for optimal performance, the combined distances between the PABX and the Punch Down Block (KRONE) and the Punch Down Block and NiceCall Focus III (x + z) should not exceed 300 meters (or 1000 ft).

In addition, the combined distances between each telephone and the Punch Down Block and the Punch Down Block and NiceCall Focus III (y + z) should not exceed 300 meters (or 1000 ft).

Connecting Digital Extension and ISDN Input

Connecting Digital Extension or ISDN Input to NiceCall Focus III

Passive digital recording is mainly used for total or all channel recording of digital extensions. High impedance tapping is implemented.

When implementing passive digital recording, a passive coupler is required. This ensures that the connection to NiceCall Focus III does not interfere with the digital phone set or switch. Recording is implemented either by energy detection or signaling.

Referring to Figure 3-6, installation cable connections are as follows:

• Cable A provides the connection between the Punch Down Block (KRONE) and the passive coupler. This is an open-leads cable terminated on one end by a 50-pin female connector. It can be used for up to 24 digital extension channels. NICE supplies a 2-meter long (maximum length allowed) cable for this purpose.

• Cable B provides the connection between the passive coupler and NiceCall Focus III. This customer-supplied cable must be terminated at both ends by 50-pin male connectors. This too can be used for up to 24 digital extension channels.

For guidelines in determining the maximum length of this cable, see Determining the Length of the Customer-Supplied Cable on page 42.

For cable type specifications, see NiceCall Focus III Hardware Guide.

Connecting Digital Extension and ISDN Input

Determining the Length of the Customer-Supplied Cable

Referring to Figure 3-7, the greater the length of L1 + L2, the shorter L3 must be. Or, the greater the combined distances between the telephone and the PABX, the closer NiceCall Focus III should be to the Punch Down Block (KRONE).

Figure 3-7 Cable Distances for the Digital Extension Interface

Maximum recommended distances are as follows:

For example, at a site using the Nortel switch, if the distance between the Punch Down Block (KRONE) and the PABX (L1) is 200m (650 ft), and the distance between the Punch Down Block and the telephone (L2) is 500m (1650 ft), then the distance between the Punch Down Block and NiceCall Focus III (L3) can be up to 100m (300 ft). However, if the distance between the Punch Down Block and the PABX (L1) is 100m (300 ft), and the distance between the Punch Down Block and the telephone (L2) is 400m (1300 ft), the distance between the Punch Down Block and NiceCall Focus III (L3) can be up to 200m (650 ft).

• Nortel, Avaya (Lucent), Siemens, Phillips, Tadiran, Telrad interfaces

L1 + L2 + L3 < 800m (2600 ft)

L3 < 200m (650 ft)

• Ericsson, Aspect, Alcatel, NEC, Matra, ISDN interfaces

Customizing Network Backup for NiceCLS

Customizing Network Backup for NiceCLS If the NiceCall Focus III unit at your site does not include a backup device for the NiceCLS database, you must define a shared folder on another station on the network to enable backup to this station. This configuration enables the two NiceCLS databases (nice_cls and nice_audit) to be backed up daily to a shared folder on a networked station.

Customizing your network backup for NiceCLS involves:

• Defining a Backup Folder

• Defining the Backup Devices in SQL Server Enterprise Manager

Defining a Backup Folder

Defining a backup folder involves:

• Creating the NiceDbBackup user (with password nicecti) on a networked station. The NiceDbBackup user does not have to be a member of the Administrators group.

• Creating a new folder called DbBackup. Then, you need to enable full sharing permissions for the NiceDbBackup user. This location must have at least 18 GB of free hard disk space.

To define a backup folder:

1. On the networked station, create a folder and name it DbBackup.

2. Enable full control for the NiceDbBackup user as shown here:

a. Right-click on the folder and choose Sharing and Security.

b. In the Sharing tab, mark the Share this folder radio button.

c. Click Permissions and allow Full Control permissions for the NiceDbBackup user.

d. Click the Security tab and assign Full Control permissions for the NiceDbBackup user.

e. Click OK.

NOTE: This procedure provides customization instructions only. If you need to configure network backup from scratch, see Configuring Network Backup for NiceCLS on page 126.

Setting Up a Workstation IP Address

Setting Up a Workstation IP Address

If a workstation is to be connected to the customer’s existing LAN, then the PC must be assigned a unique IP address that does not conflict with other devices on the customer’s LAN. In addition, the subnet mask must be set according to the customer’s network to which the PC is connected.

If the NiceCall Focus III and additional workstations are on separate networks connected via a router, then the router’s IP address must be set on each PC that is to be used as a workstation. Even if a PC is already network-connected, the dealer must set the router’s IP address in the TCP/IP configuration file.

To set the IP address:

1. From the Start menu, select Settings, Network and Dial-up Connections.

The Network and Dial-up Connections window appears.

Installing NiceCLS

Install NiceCLS Server as described in the NiceCLS Server Installation Guide Version 8.9.

Installing the NICE Inserter

NICE Inserter is a NICE Systems application used in conjunction with NiceCall Focus III, the NiceCLS Server, and NICE Storage Center. It ensures complete archiving and retrieval of all calls by NICE Storage Center.

NICE Inserter scans and compares the databases of the NiceCLS Server and NiceCall Focus III and detects instances in which archived calls are either incomplete or missing altogether. It then inserts the details of those calls in a special field in the NiceCLS Server database. When NICE Storage Center performs the next scheduled task, it automatically reads this field and thus detects and archives all the previously incomplete or missing calls.

NICE Inserter also writes to a Log file located at C:\NICECTI\Log.

The NICE Inserter installation program installs NICE Inserter on the NiceCLS Server and automatically updates the necessary configuration on the NICE Storage Center. See NICE Inserter Installation Guide 8.9 for instructions.

Installing the NICE Applications

This section provides instructions for installing the following NICE applications:

• NICE Administrator

• NICE Query

• NICE Monitor

To install the NICE applications:

1. Insert the NICE applications installation CD into the workstation’s CD drive and access the NICE applications files.

IMPORTANTThe NICE Scenario Replay application must be installed on a workstation, and not on the NiceCall Focus III unit.
