Administering Button Assignments

This section describes how to assign buttons to:

■Multiline sets

■Attendant consoles

■Selector consoles

Note Some button assignment features (e. g., Auto Intercom and Station-to-Station Message Waiting) require administering buttons on more than one voice terminal. Such features become fully operable (and available for testing) only after you administer both voice terminals.

Assigning Features to Buttons

Assigning buttons to multiline sets and the attendant console(s) is done through Main menu item 2 (PDC). Minimally, you need to complete two actions, Action = 100 and

Action = 101. At Action = 100, you select the button you’re assigning the feature to. At Action = 101, you identify the feature you’re assigning. In some cases, you need to enter additional Action/Data information to complete a button assignment.

Default Button Assignments

AT&T System 25 provides default button assignments. These assignments are identified on the button-assignment tables on the following pages.

DTAC

The default button assignments shown for the DTAC are for the first console. If you move the first attendant console to another port, the button assignments stay the same. When you assign a second DTAC or if you remove then readminister the first DTAC, the default button assignments are the same except that trunk terminations, pooled facilities, and night service do not have default button assignments (the buttons are blank).

SLAC

The default button assignments shown for the SLAC apply to both the first and second consoles.

MET Sets

For button assignment purposes, the MET set is treated as a 5-button MERLIN CS set. The top five buttons are numbered 7 through 11. Even though the MET set has ten buttons, only three of these buttons are assignable for System 25. The remaining buttons are fixed and cannot be assigned. See the table “MET Set Button Defaults” (on the following pages) for the button functions.
