Handset Configuration

Note: This chapter describes settings in parameter definition files (.def). These files are
regularly updated and settings may change slightly. For example "On" to "Enable" or a
parameter can be moved to another directory.

Configure a Handset with a Template

It is possible to select a handset in the PDM and directly change one or more configuration
parameters. By using a template, the same configuration can easily be applied to many
handsets simultaneously. Templates are also an efficient way to give good control over
which changes that are applied to each handset.
Templates enables configuration of all aspects of a handset from sound volume to keypad
shortcuts.
Your supplier can provide example templates for different PBX:s. The handset will have full
functionality towards the PBX even without such a template. By using such a template,
though, the handset will be customized for that PBX with menu options for PBX specific
functions such as Callback.
5.1.1

Create a template

1 Open the PDM Windows version or the Device Manager in the IMS2.
2 Select the Templates tab and open the menu "Template > New...". The Create
Template window is opened.
3 Select the device d41 and parameter version that matches the software version
installed on the handset. Give the template a descriptive name.
The parameters that are not part of the template will be left unchanged on the
handset.
The parameter version of an installed handset is visible under the "Numbers" tab or
the "Devices" tab.
4 Select the checkbox of each parameter that you want to be part of this template
and enter the proper value.
5 Click "OK" to save your template.
5.1.2

Apply a template

1 Open the PDM Windows Version or the Device Manager in the IMS2
2 Open the Numbers tab and select the handsets you want to apply the template to.
3 Make a right-click and select "Run template...".
Only templates with a parameters version matching the selected handsets will be
shown. Select the template you want to apply and click "OK".
4 The template is applied. The number of parameters in the template will affect the
time it takes to apply the template to the selected handsets.
When looking at a handset under the Numbers tab, the column "Last run
template" will show the name of the most recently applied template.
Note: It is also possible to apply a template on several handsets of the same device type
(d41) simultaneously using the Baseline function in the IMS2. See Installation and
Operation Manual, IMS2, TD 92586GB.
