SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway Administration Guide

Programming the ADMIN Feature

The ADMIN option allows the system administrator to add and delete handsets via another handset, rather than via the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway. Any function key sequence may be programmed to ADMIN by typing ADMIN next to the desired key. The ADMIN feature may be programmed on only one SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway (the one that contains the line used by the system administrator) in order to limit its accessibility system-wide.

When the ADMIN function is active, pressing the function key sequence on the handset will open the ADMIN function. The following steps allow the administrator to add or delete a handset:

1.Press FCN plus the assigned key. Once in the ADMIN function, pressing the FCN key will cancel the action and return to the previous menu level.

2.Enter the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway password using the handset keypad. Note that the password is case sensitive. The key steps through each letter and number as it is repetitively pressed.

3.Once the password is accepted, the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateways are listed. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the list. Press 0 (the zero key) to select the correct SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway.

4.The handsets assigned to the selected SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway are listed by the last three byte numbers in the MAC address. If a line is not assigned to a handset, not used will display. Use the arrow keys to scroll through the lines.

5.Display the line to add or delete a handset and follow the prompts displayed on the handset.

6.If a name or extension must be associated with an added handset for record keeping purposes, it must be entered on the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway Telephone Line Configuration screen.
