Using the Task Descriptions
Programming instructions that contain summary programming
procedures for programming from the console and from a PC with SPM
The task descriptions fall loosely into the following categories:
System tasks (setting system date and time; backing up the system)
Extensions (adding, moving, or removing an extension; changing calling
restrictions)
Lines (adding and removing)
Operator consoles (adding a DLC or QCC operator position and adding
operator features)
Auxiliary equipment connections
Group assignments (calling groups, Allowed Lists, Disallowed Lists,
Group Coverage, and Night Service with Group Assignment)
Labels (changing displays for Extension Directory, trunks, Posted
Messages, and calling groups)
To perform a task, follow these general steps:
1. Review the entire task description.
2. Obtain the system planning form(s) noted in the task description.
3. Using the planning guidelines in the task description, plan the changes
and record them on the planning form(s). You may want to refer to the
feature description in the Feature Reference or the appropriate section in
System Programming for more information.
NOTE:
You should become familiar with the detailed instructions in System
Programming before you use the summary programming instructions
provided in the task descriptions.
4. Program the changes using either the detailed, step-by-step
programming procedure in System Programming or the summary
programming instructions that follow the task list. You can photocopy the
task list and use it to check off tasks as you complete them.
