Introduction - AT&T MERLIN LEGEND Release 3.0 Programming Summary Manual

Introduction

Introduction
Centralized telephone programming allows the system manager to program
any feature that can be programmed by individual telephone users, or by the
system operator, onto another telephone in the system. Any feature that can
be programmed at an individual telephone can be programmed using
centralized telephone programming.
The following features can be programmed only by using centralized
programming:
Barge-In
Headset Hang Up
Intercom buttons: all types (Key and Behind Switch mode only)
System Access buttons: all types (Hybrid/PBX only)
To perform centralized telephone programming, you can use the system
programming console (see Chapter 1, "Programming Basics") or a PC with
SPM software (see System Programming and Maintenance).
In Release 2.0 and higher, if you are programming several telephones of the
same type (that is, all analog or all MLX), program one extension and then use
the programmed extension as a template for programming additional
extensions. See "Copy Extension" and also refer to the planning forms.
NOTE:
Some programming can be performed only when the entire system or some
part of it (such as a trunk or an extension) is idle. See "Idle States" in
Chapter 1.
