Managing Directories with the V500 Web Interface

The V500 web interface import/export directory feature allows you to
efficiently maintain consistency of V500 system directories. It is particularly
useful if you are managing multiple systems that call the same locations. You
can:
• Transfer existing directory entries between V500 systems
• Develop directory entries on one system, save them to your computer, and
then distribute them to other systems
• Create localized directory entries
Only local directories can be downloaded. The directory file is in .csv format.
To download a V500 system directory to your computer:
1. On a computer, open a web browser.
2. In the browser address line, enter the system's IP address (for example,
http://10.11.12.13) to go to the V500 web interface.
3. Go to System Setup > Utilities > Import Directory.
4. Click V500 -> PC to download the .csv file from the V500 system.
5. Save the file to a location on your computer.
To upload V500 system directory entries:
1. On a computer, open a web browser.
2. In the browser address line, enter the system's IP address (for example,

3. Go to System Setup > Utilities > Import Directory.
4. Click PC -> V500.
5. Click Browse and browse to the location of the .csv file on your computer.

To create a localized directory entry using the V500 web interface:
