■Fixed Display Buttons. The top two buttons in each column have the same labels and functions regardless of the screen display:

—Home. Return to normal call-handling mode after you finish programming.

—Menu. Display the main menu shown in Figure 6–8.

—More. Display more items when a menu continues on a subsequent screen, indicated by an angle bracket (>) on the upper right of the screen.

—Inspct (Inspect). View a list of lines or extensions on which a feature is programmed, or view the settings for a feature.

■Unlabeled Display Buttons. Use the five unlabeled display buttons on each side of the screen to select commands, options, or items on the screen. The functions of these buttons vary, based on the option you select.

NOTE:

If you are using SPM for system programming, the simulated MLX-20L console screen on your PC screen shows the function keys that correspond to the console screen selections. For example, to save an entry, you select Enter on the console or press ￿on your PC. For more information about using function keys, see System Programming, Chapter 2.

Console Overlay 6

The programmable line buttons are on the main part of the console. There are actually 20 line buttons on the console, but you can use the console overlay to program up to 34 lines. Some of the unlabeled line buttons on the lower part of the console may also be used for programming features. You can also use the dialpad for entering feature and programming codes.

Figure 6–9 illustrates the system console overlay. For each of the programmable line buttons, the top numbers represent the lines on a telephone (up to the maximum of 34), and the bottom numbers represent the lines in the system (up to the maximum of 80).

Appendix E in System Programming shows the button diagrams for the telephones used in the communications system. Refer to this appendix when programming buttons for other telephones.
