ADMINISTRATION

ADMINISTRATION

This section contains some of the information necessary to administer the different voice termi- nals on DEFINITY G1, G2, G3, System 75, or System 85. It also provides the caveats required when administering some of the newer voice terminals to the older systems. Other administra- tion information for DEFINITY G1 and G3 or System 75 is provided in the DEFINITY G1 and G3 and System 75 Implementation and Administration manuals. The administration information for DEFINITY G2 and System 85 is provided in the System 85 and DEFINITY G2 Translation Ser- vice Manual.

Important: The sections of this manual which describe the newer voice terminals provide detailed information on administering that voice terminal. In most cases, diagrams of the button numbering schemes are also provided. For example, if you want to administer a 7407 Plus voice terminal, see the section on the 7407 Voice Terminals under the tab labeled 7400 Series..

Aliasing

When some of the newer voice terminals are used with some older versions of the switches, the administration procedures of the switch does not allow for the use of the new terminals. These new terminals must be administered using the administration procedures of a similar older termi- nal. This is called ‘‘aliasing’’ a set.

When aliasing is used to administer a voice terminal, often the ‘‘old’’ screen used in administering buttons and features displays more buttons than can actually be assigned to the new terminal. These differences are provided in this section also.

The following tables list the aliases used in administering the terminals. If the terminal you are administering is not listed in the tables, then it is administered as itself in all versions of the switch.
