PC with System Programming and Maintenance (SPM) Software. A PC directly connected through its serial port to the lower RS-232 port on the control unit’s processor module, or a PC dialing into the system through a modem either locally or remotely. SPM emulates a system programming console on your PC.

Extension Programming. Allows individual telephone users and system operators (except QCC operators) to change their telephone features to meet individual needs.

Centralized Telephone Programming. Allows you, as the system manager, to program any feature that can be programmed by individual telephone users or system operators. Certain features must be programmed in this manner. You can perform centralized telephone programming on the system programming console or on a PC with SPM.

This chapter describes system programming and centralized telephone programming (both on the system programming console and on a PC with SPM). For information about extension programming, see the appropriate user and operator guides.

Programming Screens

There are three types of system programming screens:

Information Screens. To view what is currently programmed on the system. You cannot make changes on an information screen.

Menu Selection Screens. To select features or options to program.

Data Entry Screens. To enter values or to identify a specific extension or line/trunk you want to program.

This section describes each screen type and the System Programming menu; it also provides information about saving entries and moving among screens.

Information screens display what is currently programmed on your system. You cannot make changes on an information screen. Figure 6–1 shows a sample information screen. When you select Sys Program from the main menu screen, the screen shown in Figure 6–1 appears with system setup information.
