Selecting a Main Menu Item

To select an item from the Main Menu, just type the number of the item you want followed by (Return)

If you type (Return) by itself or if you type a number that is not between 1 and 12, you see the following message:

Must be a number from 1-12

Administration Commands

Once you select an item from the Main Menu, you can administer the features and parameters accessible in that command area by entering commands. You use commands to tell the system what feature or parameter you want to change and the value you want to change it to. The basic format of a system administration command consists of two items: an action number, and a data value. Some commands also require a third information number, a target. The functions of these command items are described below:

Action: An action number defines a specific system administration function. You choose an action (by number) to examine or change System 25 attributes.

Data: A data value controls a specific System 25 function. In general, a data value is the current value of the parameter specified by the associated action number. To change an administration parameter, you change its data value.

Target: The target can be a:

Personal Dial Code (PDC)

Data Dial Code (DDC)

Port number

Direct Group Calling (DGC) number

Toll Calls Allowed List number

RS232 Channel number.

Please note that the words “Action” and “Data” actually appear on command lines. The word “Target” does not appear on a command line—instead, the target type (e. g., Port, as shown below) is displayed.

The following example shows the format of a completed command line for the Port command area (Main Menu item 1):

Port=10401 Action=1 Data=201

In this command line, Port = 10401 tells the system to go to cabinet 1, slot 04, port 01–the physical location of the port. Action = 1 tells the system to administer the type of terminal. In this case, Data = 201 indicates a single-line voice terminal without a message waiting indicator. If you wanted to make this station a single-line voice terminal with a message waiting indicator, you would change the data value to 202. (Action numbers and data values for all command areas appear in tables in the Command Reference chapter.)
