Customizing the Key Type List in the Aastra Web UI

An Administrator can configure which key types display in the Aastra Web UI list for a Softkey, Programmable Key, Expan-
sion Module Key, and/or Feature Key (CT Models). Currently, in the Aastra Web UI for a phone, you can select a type of key
from a list of more than 20 key types to assign to a softkey, programmable key, expansion module key, and/or feature
key.
Using the configuration files, you can specify key types to display in the key type list that apply to a User's environment.
Example of a List of
Configured Keys Types
(None, Line, XML, Empty)
In addition to being able to specify which key types display in the list, the Administrator can also determine in which
order the key types display.
You can use the following configuration file parameters to control which key types to display and specify in which order
to display them in:
• softkey selection list
• feature key selection list
If no value is specified for the "softkey selection list" and/or "feature key selection list" parameters, the key "Type" list dis-
plays all of the key types by default.
If an Administrator configures specific key types for a phone in the configuration file, and the phone for which he down-
loads the configuration to already has key types configured on it, those key types display in the key list for those keys, in
addition to the key types specified by the Administrator. For example, a phone has a Park key and a Pickup key already
configured on the phone, and the Administrator downloads a configuration file to the phone that has specific key types
of None, Line, Speeddial, and XML. After the configuration file is downloaded, the Park key list will show None, Line,
Speeddial, XML, and Park; the Pickup key list will show None, Line, Speeddial, XML, and Pickup; all other keys that were
configured as None before the download will show only None, Line, Speeddial, and XML.
Notes:
• Any key types configured that do not apply to the phone are ignored.
• The SAVE and DELETE keys appear by default as Keys 1 and 2 on the 6753i and 9143i, and as Keys 5 and 6 on the 6730i
and 6731i, unless your Administrator configured these keys as other functions.
• An Administrator must use the English value when configuring the key types in the configuration files.
• After configuring specific key types for a phone, the key types in the Aastra Web UI display the same for both the User
and Administrator Web interfaces for that phone.
