Entering an Administrator Phone Passcode

Because several of the features described in this guide are accessed and configured in the system database, you should use a passcode to prevent unauthorized access.

You cannot use your administrator phone to assign passcodes to other administrator phones. Passcodes must be assigned at the administrator phone where the passcode is used.

To enter an administrator phone passcode:

Note: At any time, you can press * to return to the previous menu, or press the Speaker button to exit the programming session and cancel any unsaved changes.

1.Dial 9932 (9132 in Europe).

2.Press 2 or the SYSTEM menu button. ENTER SYSTEM OPTION (1 - 4) appears.

3.Press 2 or the PASSCODE menu button. CHANGE PASSCODE TO appears.

4.Do one of the following:

•Enter a passcode (1 to 8 digits), and then press #.

•Press # to erase the passcode and leave it blank.

VERIFY PASSCODE appears.

5.Enter the passcode exactly as you did in step 4 above followed by #. DATABASE UPDATED appears followed by the ENTER SYSTEM OPTION (1 - 4) menu. If you hear reorder/fast-busy tones and see an error message, the passcodes did not match and you must start over at the CHANGE PASSCODE prompt.

6.When you have finished programming the administrator telephone set, press the Speaker button or # repeatedly to exit the programming session.
