Swapping Phone Extension Numbers
A phone extension number can be reassigned to (swapped with) another phone. To swap
extensions, the two affected phones must meet the following criteria:
Both phones (and the administrator phone) must reside on the same node.
Both phones must be the same type. For example, if you are swapping a Mitel 8662 ITP
Mode phone extension number with another system extension number, the other extension
number must be assigned to another ITP Mode Mitel 8662. This applies to all device types.
Neither device can be the administrator phone performing the swap.
Neither device can be in an active Hot Desk session.
To swap phone extension numbers:
1. Dial 9932 (9132 in Europe). If a passcode is required (see page25), ENTER PASSCODE
appears (otherwise, go to step 3).
2. Enter the passcode, and then press #. ENTER DATABASE OPTION (1 - 3) appears.
3. Press 2 or the SYSTEM menu button. ENTER SYSTEM OPTION (1 - 4) appears.
4. Press 4 or the STN EXTENSION menu button.
5. Press 2 or SWAP EXTS. ENTER STATION EXTENSION appears.
6. Enter the extension number, or enter a partial extension number, and then press # or the
ACCEPT menu button. The extension information that best matches the partial number
appears. You can use the Volume buttons or the NEXT and PREVIOUS menu buttons to
scroll through entries.
7. Press # or the ACCEPT menu button to accept the entry. SWAP <extension> WITH EXTEN-
SION appears.
8. Enter the second extension number to be swapped. DATABASE UPDATED appears.
9. After ENTER SYSTEM OPTION (1 - 4) appears, press # again to exit to the ENTER DATABASE
OPTION menu.
10. When you have finished programming the administrator telephone set, press the Speaker
button or # repeatedly to exit the programming session.
Note: At any time, you can press * to return to the previous menu, or press the Speaker button
to exit the programming session and cancel any unsaved changes
Note: CONFLICTING EXTENSION appears if the entered extension is the administrator phone
performing the swap, the same extension number as the target phone, or the wrong device type.
