Programming the Database Using a System Administrator Phone
Any System Administrator phone can perform database programming. However, programming
requires a display phone, such as an Executive Display, Professional Display or Model 8560
digital phone or the Model 8660 IP phone.
A System Administrator phone can be used to perform the following programming:
Phone Options:
• Create or delete Administrator stations
• Create or delete Attendant stations
• Create or delete House Phones
• Assign phones to Attendants
• Program usernames
• Program endpoint toll restriction
System Options:
• Program Do-Not-Disturb (DND) messages
• Program up to 10 passwords for the Database Programming feature
• Program phone extensions
• Swap extensions
Trunk Options:
• Individual trunk answer supervision type, caller information, hybrid balance, signaling
type (DTMF or pulse), and trunk group assignment
• Trunk group answer access, ring-in, toll restrictions, and trunk lists
A password can protect entry to the Database Programming feature at the Administrator phone.
A password prevents unauthorized users from altering the system database.
Depending on the database changes made, the system may require a reset after programming.
If so, the system will prompt you for a reset and ask if it should be done immediately or
delayed. Delaying the reset may prevent interruption in service. However, if a reset is required
it should be done as soon as possible to permit proper system operation.
Entering Alphanumeric Information:
When entering alphanumeric information, such as a username, reminder message, or Do-Not-
Disturb message, press or
USE ALPHA MODE/USE NUMERIC MODE menu button to
switch back and forth between alphanumeric and numeric mode.
• In numeric mode, the dialpad buttons are used to enter numbers 0-9, the pound ( )
button is used for entering a hyphen (-), and the asterisk ( ) button is used for entering
a colon (:). For example, 1 00 would enter “1:00” in numeric mode.
• In alphanumeric mode, dialpad buttons are used to enter the desired letters, numbers,
and punctuation. The number of times a button is pressed determines which character is
entered. For example, 533266 would enter “JEAN” in English. When adjoining charac-
ters are located under the same button, press to advance to the next character.
For example, 66
6667776 would enter “NORM.”
Refer to the table on the following page to program information in alphanumeric mode.
NOTE
Passwords are important to system security. Without sufficient password protec-
tion, the system database is vulnerable to unauthorized access.
NOTE A system reset will drop all calls in progress.
