frees the system programming console for other uses and also provides the following additional
functions:

I
Restoring system programming information from a backup.
I
Printing, viewing, and storing reports.
I
Programming the system remotely.
I
Programming in surrogate mode.

WinSPM provides two modes for programming your MERLIN MAGIX Integrated System:
Quick Access Mode. A graphical interface (GUI) for those tasks most commonly performed
I
by the System Manager—for example, adding or deleting members of groups, performing
system inventories, creating reports, administering multiple systems, making station labels
shown on display telephones, and more.
Standard SPM Mode. Provides an emulation display of the system programming console. It
I
allows basic SPM programming of the MERLIN MAGIX system and supports SPM
programming for options not included in Quick Access mode.
WinSPM is available on CD-ROM. The WinSPM software can be used directly from the CD-ROM
on your PC. If your PC has a hard disk, however, you should install WinSPM from the CD-ROM
onto the hard disk.
This guide describes the use of WinSPM in Standard SPM Mode. If you are using Quick Access,
refer to the documentation and online help provided with the WinSPM application for additional
information.
