ESI Communications Servers Programming Manual
System programming: An introduction
You can program an ESI Communications Server either (a.) from a 24-Key or 48-Key Feature Phone
system or (b.) with the Windows
programming steps. This manual focuses on programming from a Feature Phone; the respective documentation
for ESI System Programmer details the differences in programming from that environment.
Read the User's Guide first. Programming features require a clear understanding of user interface
and application.
Once you've accessed programming mode on a 24-Key or 48-Key Digital Feature Phone, the system will prompt
for — and confirm — each keystroke action via voice commands and the display. You program both
configuration data and recordings in the same manner.
Important: During programming, the 24-Key Feature Phone's two-line display shares the same content as the top two
lines of the 48-Key Feature Phone's three-line display. As a result, to save space, the sample displays
shown herein will show only two lines.
If installing ESI Presence Management on this system, refer to the ESI Presence Management Installation
Manual (ESI # 0450-0792) for important information before you program the system.
Programming keys
During programming, the first line of the display will show the current item being programmed, and the second line
will be the entry line. You can enter values as directed by the combination of the voice prompts and display.
To enter multiple values, such as a list of extension numbers, separate each value by # (to exit the list, enter # #).
