You must configure the station definition, which normally represents the primary station that the user uses. Because the intent of Device Adapter is to migrate the CS 1000 endpoints and users to an Avaya Aura® environment, the CS 1000 station definition already exists. For more information, see Configuring the station definition for the MDA user extension.

The 96x1 may have fewer added button modules or modules with different number of buttons. If the user uses divergent station types, then to avoid loss of keys, Avaya recommends that you use an endpoint with the least number of keys as the primary station.

For more information, see Caveat for allowing two or more Device Adapter UNIStim endpoints to register.

The station data that is sent to Device Adapter is according to the template that is generated by the station definition. Device Adapter modifies the information to ensure maximum compatibility with the endpoint that is being registered, although, there might be some loss of keys. The 96x1 and other SIP endpoints use a similar data conversion for compatibility with the CS1K-IP SIP stations.
