Searches

The Search menu item is similar to the lists described above. However, most types of searches require at least two steps:

■ Action = 1 Data = [data value] to identify the type of search you want.

■ Action = 2 Data = [data value] to narrow the range of the search.

■ A few search areas require a third step, Action = 3 Data = [data value] to further narrow the range of search—to just translated or untranslated ports, for example.

When you enter the type of search and the required qualifiers, you begin the actual search by typing C or c , “commence search.”

Removing Ports

When (under Port or PDC on the Main Menu) you try to remove a port from the system, there are several kinds of associations you may want to investigate before you remove that port from the system. These associations (for example, the appearance of a trunk on several station buttons or an external alert associated with a station) are called blocks. System 25 generates warning messages about these blocks so you do not perform an administration function that goes beyond your intent. For each type of association, you will see a warning message. To go on with the action, you respond to the system message

c for continue, any other key for abort. When there are no more associations with a station port you want to remove, you see the warning message,

W18: NO MORE BLOCKS.

The system displays this message to prevent you from accidentally removing a port from the system.

The next section describes system responses, such as warning messages, in more detail.
