5.1.3 Save a Handset Configuration as a Template
It is possible to save all settings of a handset as template. Please note that this does not
include contacts and other personal data. The template only contains configuration data.
This template can be used as a backup if you want to restore the configuration of the
handset at a later stage or as a template that can be applied to a number of handsets.
1 Open WinPDM or the Device Manager.
2 Open the Numbers tab and select the handset you want to save as a template.
3 Make a right-click and select "Use as a template...". Enter a descriptive name for the
template.
4 The Edit template window is opened. By default, all parameters are selected and are
saved when clicking on "OK".
If one or more parameters should be excluded, remove them by clearing the checkbox
next to the parameter.
Some parameters are user specific. If it is decided to apply this type of template to
several handsets, it is recommended to exclude the following parameters:
• Owner ID - A text string displayed in idle mode. The parameter is located directly
under "Settings".
• Phone lock PIN code - The security code used to unlock the keypad. The parameter
is located under Settings > Locks.
5 Click "OK".
5.1.4 Synchronizing a Handset with WinPDM/Device Manager
After installing and saving a handset, the handset is synchronized each time it is connected
to the WinPDM/Device Manager. The synchronization transfers parameter changes between
the handset and the WinPDM/Device Manager and vice versa as follows:
• If a parameter has been changed in the handset, it is transferred to the WinPDM/Device
Manager.
• If a parameter has been changed in the WinPDM/Device Manager while the telephone
was disconnected, it is transferred to the handset.
If the same parameter has been changed in both the WinPDM/Device Manager and the
handset, the value in WinPDM/Device Manager is transferred to the handset.
5.2

Voice Mail

In some systems it is needed to assign the handset number of the Voice Mail service. The
parameter can be set specifically for each PBX subscription on the handset and is accessed
from Systems > System x > PBX Settings > Numbers. "System x" is replaced with the
subscription (System A - System H) that is configured.
5.2.1 Wildcard Characters in Voice Mail Number
When programming voice mail dial strings in WinPDM/Device Manager, a wildcard character,
N, can be used to represent the phone's extension number.
For example, a PBX uses voice mail numbers that are a combination of a base voice mail
number and the phone's extension number. If the base voice mail number is 2222 and the
extension number is 4455, the voice mail number is 22224455. Using the N wildcard
character this can be written as: 2222N.
