Norstar NAM - FAQ

(or cursor keys)
How do I access set programming

Enter the Administration access code:

Feature * * 2 3 6 4 6 which also is:
Feature * * A D M I N

If asked for a password enter the same: 2 3 6 4 6

To exit programming, just press the release button: Rls

Note: Programming is much easier using the M7310 set.

How do I access Voicemail System Administration

With Feature 983.

The password consists of two parts: the system co-ordinators mailbox number (which depends on the DN length) and the personal password. Use the following table to determin your default password:

DN lengthDefault password
2120000
31020000
410020000

How to determin the NAM’s serial number...

The serial number is checked as follows:

  1. Feature 915 (If F915 does not give a Password prompt, try feature codes from F910 to F949)
  2. Password - enter 2223772# (ACCESS2)
  3. ACCESS Server – press ADMIN
  4. A. Prt queue mgr – press NEXT 8 times
  5. I. Serial Number – press SHOW
  6. S#: XXXXXXXX – record the serial number and press OK
Feature code 915 doesn't work!

Every time a voicemail cabinet is added or changed, the F915 number increments. For example, if your voicemail cabinet goes bad and you replace it, the feature code for the replacement unit becomes 916.

So, if F915 does not give a "Password" prompt, try feature codes from F910 to F949 until you do get a "Password" prompt!

One way to check to see what the feature code might be: Feature ** xftest, Password: 266344

Shutting down the NAM

IMPORTANT!
The NAM (Norstar Applications Module) is a PC and uses the OS2/Warp operating system, which is similar to Windows. When it is necessary to power off the NAM, DO NOT just pull the power cord. You must perform a shutdown procedure as follows:

  1. Feature 915 (If F915 does not give a Password prompt, try feature codes from F910 to F949)
  2. Password - enter 2223772# (ACCESS2)
  3. ACCESS Server - press NEXT
  4. System shutdown - press SHOW
  5. Shutdown type - press GRACE
  6. Shutdown graceful - press YES

Wait about 30 seconds until you hear a series of tones with descending pitch. It's now OK to pull the NAM's power cord.
