ESI Communications Servers Programming Manual
Entering alphanumeric characters
You enter names for extensions, departments, branch IDs, CO lines, guest mailboxes and DIDs by
pressing the dial pad key that corresponds to the character to be entered. The key's possible entries will change
each time the key is pressed, and the display will show this. When the desired character appears on the display,
press # to confirm; the cursor will move to the next character position. You may move the cursor left (to correct
an entry) by pressing the left scroll key ( ) or move right (to add a space) by pressing the right scroll key ( ).
Key Options
0 0, - (hyphen), _ (underline)
1 Q, Z, q, z, 1, "_" (space)
2 A, B, C, a, b, c, 2
3 D, E, F, d, e, f, 3
4 G, H, I, g, h, i, 4
5 J, K, L, j, k, l, 5
6 M, N, O, m, n, o, 6
Important: Lower-case letters are available only for programming Function 84 settings (page M.11).
Example: To enter a B, press 2 twice (the possible options to scroll through are A, B, C, a, b, c, and 2). When B appears,
press # to confirm; the cursor will move to the next character to be entered. To complete the name, press # #.
Note: On an incoming call, the name you assigned to the call's CO line or DID — rather than the Caller ID data —
will appear until the call is answered.
Selectable numbering plan
The ESI Communications Server's selectable numbering plan offers up to nine pre-configured ranges —
three three-digit plans and six four-digit plans. When an extension range is selected, department numbers and
guest mailbox numbers are also changed. However, regardless of which extension range is selected, feature key
codes, and CO line group access numbers will stay the same. The dial plan range is selected through Installer
programming Function 169 (see page E.10 for more information).
Notes: The ESI Presence Management RFID Reader
The IP Feature Phone II, the IP Cordless Handset (Local or Remote), VIP Softphone, and a SIP phone
each use one IP port, regardless of dial plan.
Important: Full capacity on the ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200 can be achieved only by using a four-digit plan.
(See "System capacities," page B.1.)
