5 Centralized Telephone Programming

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 Chapter 2, "Programming with SPM").
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" on page 5–13
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
5
and also refer to the planning forms.
"Idle States" on page 46.
