MIRAN Card Installation

Locate MIRAN III card, security device (dongle), Audio Adapter, serial cable, and matching keycode.
Place the MIRAN card (with dongle in place) in any vacant IPE card slot, do not push home (seat) yet.
Remove the amphenol cable from the rear chassis card slot, and seat the MIRAN audio adapter in it's place.
Connect a serial cable from the audio adapter (9 pin D) or front panel TTY port (mini DIN) to a PC com port.
Launch PC terminal software (HyperTerminal, PuTTY, etc) and set to serial: 9600, 8-N-1.
Seat MIRAN card in slot. You should see some boot up messages on terminal.
When prompted, enter three (3) + signs: +++. The Log On Screen appears.
Log in with admin / admin000 (default). Shift ~ (tilde) refreshes the screen.
At Main Menu, enter 2, Pack administration. The dongle ID is shown top left - see note b.
At Pack administration, enter 2, keycode entry. Enter keycodes with a space between each set of numbers
Return to main log-on menu, verify that the keycode is validated (bottom of screen)
Log on again, enter 2, pack administration, then enter 6, Ethernet configuration.
Use the down arrow to IP Method, backspace and re-type disabled. Down arrow to set and press enter.
Exit and log out. Reset the MIRAN card (faceplate button) to insure that it reboots.
When booted/ready, the display should read MRN3, and the terminal be at the log-on screen.

Notes:

MIRAN uses pair's 23&24 on it's Amphenol for ELAN. This is the "TLAN" port of an (MC32) ITG Card Adapter if you can't find a MIRAN Audio Adapter. It would also be possible to punch the ELAN connection down on the BIX frame as a last resort.
In step 9 above, if the dongle ID is displayed as all zero's, remove the card, remove, clean and reseat the dongle 'button'.
In steps 12-13 above, the BOOTP option is disabled so the card doesn't hang waiting for a BOOTP server response when there isn't one! Select static to manually enter an ELAN IP address for the MIRAN GUI web browser interface, or to use Telnet/FTP.

The Media Card comes in two versions: MC8 (8-port), and MC32 (32-port). Different firmware is pre-installed (on compact flash), depending on the application being supported, MIRAN (Integrated Recorded Announcer) or VGMC (Voice Gateway Media card). You can use an MC8 compact flash on an MC32 card (and visa-versa) if necessary.

Display:

The front panel display indicates the following:

T:xx - status of internal self-test during boot-up.
F:xx - card faulty, failed self-test or comms problem.
MRN3 - the MIRAN III application is running on the card.
WAIT - initialization, do not remove the card when displayed.

See ITG HEX display Codes for T:est/F:ault code details.

PBX Programming:

Build a RAN route and a trunk for Music on Hold

1 Using hyper-terminal (or PuTTY), log into the PBX and goto LD 21:

REQ: ltm                       ⇐ list trunk members
CUST 0
ROUT 
ACOD

This list’s all routes and trunk members.
Note what each route is, and identify an available route number.

2 Determine what access code is available by going into LD 20:

REQ: prt
TYPE: ludn                     ⇐ list unused DN's
CUST 0
DN   
 
CUSTOMER 00  - UNUSED DNS:
10      11      120     121     122     1230    1231    1232    1233    12340
12341   12342   12343   12344   12346   12347   12348   12349   1235    1236

Note an available directory number, it can be a 4 digit number (eg. 1230), and is only used for testing.

3 Determine available conference loop. Go into LD 22:

REQ  prt
TYPE cequ                      ⇐ print common equipment
 
CEQU 
  MPED 8D
  SUPL  000  004  008  012 
        016  032  036  040 
        044  048  064  068 
        072 
  DDCS 
  DTCS 
  XCT   000 
  CONF  029  030  031  062    ⇐ here are the conference loops
        094  095

This will list all conference loops. Pick an EVEN numbered one

4 Go to LD 16, build a music route:

REQ  new
TYPE rdb
CUST 0
DMOD 
ROUT 3                        ⇐ use a vacant route number
DES  moh
TKTP mus                      ⇐ trunk type is MUSic
ICOG ogt
SRCH 
STEP 
BDCT  
ACOD 1230                     ⇐ direct access code for testing
TARG x1                       ⇐ allow TGAR 1 sets to dial access code

5 Go to LD 14, build a music trunk (trunk hardware is ON the MIRAN card):

REQ  new
TYPE mus
TN   9 0                      ⇐ card is in slot 9, this trunk is for channel zero *
DES  moh
XTRK exut
CUST 0
RTMB 3 1                      ⇐ route # and member 1
CFLP 30                       ⇐ conf loop chosen from CEQU above

* Note: The TN coincides with the "channel number" in the MIRAN Calendar Assignments. By default, 0 is assigned to MOH.
Optionally, repeat the above steps for other channels or services, such as RAN with TN 1, etc.

On each incoming trunk route where you want music on hold, in LD 16 for that RDB, set MUS=YES and MRT= music route number.
Also check the TARG assignment. Enter X plus the TARG number to remove if necessary.

With TARG removed, you should be able to dial the access code (ACOD) and hear music - the ACOD is used ONLY for TESTING. When an incoming call on a route with MUS=YES is put on hold, the caller will hear music.
