Plan the Interface

The system administrator programs the telephone system for use with the Wireless Telephone System using the normal administration terminal or procedures. Programming can be done after the handsets are registered.

Recommended programming includes assigning extension numbers to the handsets and programming features on the telephone system so they are easily accessible from the handsets.

For analog interfaces, macro codes are in the document relating to configuring the system. See SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Operator’s Console, SpectraLink 6100 MCU: Installation and Operation, or SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway: Administration Guide for SRP.

The following information will help the system administrator set up the SpectraLink handsets to operate in a way that feels familiar and comfortable to users.

Plan Programming

Digital Interface programming for the Wireless Telephone System will be faster if it is planned in advance by verifying the parameters and features on the current telephone system and wired phones. The system administrator must assign extension numbers to the handsets and plan the functions (trunk access, toll restrictions, system features, ringing options etc.) to be programmed for the handsets.

One of these scenarios concerning how the handsets are programmed should apply to this site:

All handsets are programmed alike: All handsets will be programmed exactly the same. Depending on the capabilities of the switch, the system administrator can often program one handset and use it as a model for all other handsets.

Groups of handsets are programmed alike: handsets are grouped into classes that are programmed alike. Depending on the capabilities of the switch, the system administrator can program
