Personal programming, to change functions related to how the telephone works, is available to anyone through the Feature button on the telephone.

User access to the FEATURE**CONFIG interface

User identification and user passwords are required to access the telset configuration menus (FEATURE **CONFIG). Although there are a set of default user IDs and passwords, for security purposes it is recommended strongly that these be changed as part of the initial startup activities. Also, it is recommended that each user has a unique user ID and password. This allows for more accurate usage tracking.

User identification and passwords for the telset interface are defined either in the Element Manager or by using the FEATURE 9*8 telset administration menu, see “Using FEATURE 9*8 for initial configuration” on page 12, which is only accessible to users with administrator (Installer) privileges.

There are four levels of user access for the telset telephony configuration menus. These are described in the Table 1. Refer to the system administration information for the Element Manager for information about assigning these access privilege levels to users. Refer to “Activating user accounts and changing passwords” on page 15 through that interface.

A user with Installer or System coordinator+ privileges can also use the Password heading in this menu to change passwords for each privilege level.
