Using Chapter Three

Since Chapter 3 deals only with the programming of the system, each programming step
includes only a brief explanation of that feature. Therefore, before you begin programming the
system, familiarize yourself with all of the system's features that are discussed in Appendix A.
By doing so, you can be certain that you are programming what the customer wants.
NOTE: Prior to taking any programming action, determine all desired parameters and
requirements. Record this data on the programming reference tables provided in
Chapter 4.

Understanding System Programming

While the Digital Telephone System offers many functional possibilities, it is your programming
that determines the system's operation. You can program the system in two ways: using a
telephone, or using a Video Display Terminal (VDT).
3.2.1

Using A Telephone To Program The System

Perform Class of Service configuration programming from station port 10 or station port 12. The
system will not accept programming commands from any other station port in the system. For
best programming results, use an LCD speakerphone and a DSS/BLF console at station port 11
or 13 to see which features are assigned to individual stations. While you can install any
non-LCD digital telephone and use it for programming, visual feedback of the programming
operations will not be available. You must always keep the handset of the LCD speakerphone
on-hook while you use this telephone to program the system.
NOTE: Be sure the system is not in the night transfer (of ringing) mode of operation when
you perform the programming steps.
