Example of Pulse Systems interconnected by Pulse Trunking

Pulse Trunking makes it possible to call between different Pulse systems. The routing between Pulse systems are easily configured in the Pulse Server Directory.

Prerequisites

Software requirements

The Pulse Server must be a station in the Turbine family with software version 4.2.3.9 or higher. Note that Pulse Trunking is not supported when an INCA Station is used as Pulse Server.

License requirements

When using a Pulse server with ver. 4.7:

When using a Pulse server with ver. 4.2:

Supported features

  • Point to point calls with Caller ID
  • Door opening
  • Call transfer
  • Call forwarding
  • Ringlist
  • Station profiles

Configuration

Pulse Trunk Routes must be configured to enable calls between different Pulse sites. A route consists of:

  1. Directory Number range (To - From) in the remote site
  2. Logical name for the route
  3. IP address and SIP port of the remote Pulse Server (Pulse Server SIP port is normally 5060)
  4. Profile to assign calls coming from/to the route. Profiles can be used to restrict access to/from a route

Note that transit calls are not possible. There must be a direct route from the calling Pulse site to the called Pulse site.


To add a route on a Pulse Server, select Server Management > Server Configuration > Directory Settings

Pulse route configuration


  • Directory Start: First number in the remote Pulse system.
  • Directory End: Last number in the remote Pulse system. The number range must have the same amount of digits. For example 200 - 299, not 50 - 150.
  • Name: Logical name for the route. Any text can be used.
  • Profile: Profile to assign calls coming from/to the route. Profiles can be used to restrict access to/from a route.
  • Host: IP-Address of remote Pulse Server
  • Port: The SIP port used. Normally 5060.

Configuration example

Pulse system 1
Name Saturn
Pulse server IP Address 192.168.1.10
Numberplan 40-80
Pulse system 2
Name Venus
Pulse server IP Address 192.168.5.10
Numberplan 120-160


Pulse Configuration Example



IMPORTANT INFO REGARDING MULTIPLE PULSE SYSTEMS ON ONE LAN IP SUBNET
Because of the Pulse auto-detect and configuration, it is NOT recommended to run multiple Pulse Systems on the same LAN IP-Subnet. 
If you still, despite our recommendations want to run multiple Pulse system on the same lan subnet, we strongly recommend that you 

 -Connect and set up Pulse system 1
 -Disconnect Pulse system 1 
 -Connect and set up Pulse system 2
 -When done with all separate configuration, connect both Pulse systems.

If you are going to do configuration changes, please remember to disconnect the other Pulse system from the network.

Limitations

  • Pulse Server can have maximum of 50 configured Pulse trunks.
  • Transit calls: A client may only call to sites to which there is a direct route. In the example in the top of this article, the satellite Pulse sites may only call to central site, while central site can call all sites.
  • Call Transfer/Forwarding can only be done to stations to which there is a direct route.
  • Group calls: It is not possible to do group calls from one Pulse system to another.
