To program multiple ESI 48-Key Feature Phones efficiently for changing extensions, follow these steps:
1. Enable Expansion Console Support: Ensure your System Administrator has enabled Expansion Console support if additional consoles are needed. 2. Use Programmable Feature Keys: Program each phone's programmable feature keys using either direct or traditional programming. 3. Direct Programming Method: Hold down a programmable feature key for at least two seconds, similar to programming a car radio button. 4. Avoid Duplicate Keys: Ensure each extension, feature, or operation is assigned to only one key, as programming a new key for the same function will erase the previous one. 5. Verify Settings: Press the PROG/HELP key to check current settings and confirm the changes. 6. Use Expansion Consoles If Needed: Connect up to two 60-Key Expansion Consoles per phone for additional programmable keys.
Following these steps will help efficiently manage extensions on multiple ESI 48-Key Feature Phones.

@Mr. Anderson I understand how to set extensions to each name on each phone but is there a way to do that from one phone specifically instead of having to go to each individual phone and set the extensions to match the buttons?

Yes, the ESI 48-Key Feature Phone can forward calls to another phone number. It allows programming a feature key to forward calls to a cordless phone, and includes an option (Option 4) for off-premises "reach-me" forwarding when a specific greeting is recorded.

We run a small business here in Houston and were wondering if there was a way to program the phone to automatically answer with a message.
ideally would like to have a call come in, phone answers said call with message playing for the customer in the meantime as we make our way to answer it.
We get multiple calls and often spam and some slip through the cracks due to not hearing an answer right away or just the dreaded ringer.
Hope is to deter many robo-calls and be able to still address customers as needed

The ESI 48-Key Feature Phone can be programmed to automatically answer calls with a message using its built-in voice mail features. To do this:
1. Press the VOICE MAIL key. 2. Access the user programming menu by following the prompts. 3. Set up a personal greeting under the Greetings section. 4. Enable the Integrated Answering Machine operation to handle incoming calls automatically.
The phone system will then answer calls and play the recorded message.
