Defining time zones by country and language
Time zones are based on the actual time zone where the Business Communications Manager is
located. The Time Zone drop down list on the initialization screen, allows you to be very specific
in choosing a compatible time zone. If your exact location is not on the list, choose the one with
the time zone closest to you. Note that some time zones are individualized because they do not
switch from Standard Time to Daylight Saving Time. For example, this is the case for
Saskatchewan.
The format of the time and date changes are based on the prime language of the region. Table 146
provides a list of formats based on language or country.
DPNSS (international term: Q.Sig or Q.931) a digital private network signaling system which allows
phone systems from different manufacturers to be tied together over E1 lines, offering
significant enhancements to Business Communications Manager 2.5 networking
capabilities.
DPNSS makes it easier to support centralized network functionality within private networks,
for operators and attendants dealing with large numbers of calls. Its routing capabilities
provide more of the larger-network capabilities without the expense of installing a new
system, re-configuring all the nodes and worrying about a lot of downtime. Most
functionality over DPNSS lines is transparent once the DPNSS is programmed into the
system.
DPNSS allows a local node, acting as a terminating node, to communicate with other PBXs
over the network using E1 lines. For example, corporate offices separated geographically
can be linked over DPNSS lines to other Business Communications Manager 2.5 systems,
bypassing the restrictions of the PSTNs to which they may be connected. This allows
connected Business Communications Manager 2.5 systems to function like a private
network.
