Installation and configuration 27

The Signaling Server for a CS 1000M Small System is installed separately. Refer to Signaling Server: Installation and Configuration (NN43001-312) for more information.

The Software Installation Program is automatically invoked during first-time installation of the system. This menu-driven program installs the software and makes the system operational.

Preprogrammed data

When you first install the system, you must enter customer data into the overlay programs. For example, you must assign features to telephone keys in order for those features to function correctly. Data can be preprogrammed. If you load preprogrammed data during the installation process, the system automatically configures some overlay entries on the telephones.

If the preprogrammed data does not apply to users at one site, you can revise the data on-site with a TTY. You can also revise the preprogrammed data remotely over a modem connection. You can start with a basic configuration, which is the least possible amount of data required for initial software programming. You must perform this step while you are working in the Software Installation Program.

Model telephones

Small Systems offer a variety of preprogrammed model telephone layouts. By using these telephone layouts (which serve as templates), technicians can perform a few simple steps at installation to activate multiple telephones.

Administration telephone

If you use the default model layouts for telephones and trunk routes, you can use an administrative telephone to make adjustments to items such as the numbering plan and access codes. You do not need a TTY input terminal to program a Small System unless a custom layout is used.

You can use a digital telephone for administrative functions. The administrative telephone can double as a user’s working telephone.

Changing or removing preprogrammed data

If preprogrammed data does not apply to users at a particular site, data can be revised on-site with a TTY or remotely over a modem connection. If desired, the user can start with the minimal amount of data required for initial software programming, which is the configuration record. This step must be performed while the user is in the Software Installation Program.
