Special Tools
In addition to the information described in
the information in the appendixes, the first pages of the Feature Reference
include tools to help you find the information you need:
"Index of Feature Names" shows where you can find information about
features and other system components that may have been renamed or
reorganized in this release of the communications system and related
products. This section is helpful both to people who have used early
releases of the system as well as to those who are accustomed to other
communications systems.
The "Index of Features by Activity" lists features according to tasks typically
performed with the system. It describes the task and then tells you which
Feature Reference entry explains it fully.
Using This Guide
Since the entries in the guide are in alphabetical order, you simply look up a
feature by name. If you are not sure of the feature name, you can use the "Index
to Feature Names" or "Index to Features by Activity" at the front of the guide
and/or examine the general index at the back of the guide.
System Programming
This reference guide provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for programming
all aspects of the system. You may use some of these programming procedures
frequently, for example, the labeling functions to change the names, phone
numbers, and extension numbers that display features use. Some you may use
only occasionally, depending on how your system is set up. Others may never
require your attention.
Since System Programming does not provide the full descriptions of features that
the Feature Reference does, you may need to refer to both guides when you are
programming a complex feature for the first time.
Contents and Organization
System Programming is organized into the following chapters:
Programming Basics (Chapter 1). Provides an introduction to
programming and idle states, and general information about using the
guide.
Programming with SPM (Chapter 2). Provides information about using
SPM (PC-based software) that enables you to program the system from a
PC rather than from a system programming console.
Programming Procedures (Chapter 3). Contains the programming
procedures that system managers use, including a programming summary,
whether an idle state is required during programming, the system planning
