The APS Custom has three communications ports for fast and

e fficient traffic handling. Each port supports a specific function.

P o rts 1 and 2 handle all inbound calls; Port 1 also handles all

voice re c o rding functions. Port 3, the outbound port, handles all

o v e rhead messages and wide area pages.

The programming mode enables you to re c o rd and delete user names and
announcements. The recordings are used for paging and user selection.

To enter the programming mode, follow the steps below.

1. Dial-in to the unit (extension number assigned to the APS Custom).
2. At the Main Menu, press # (pound).
3. The system prompts you to press 1 to program or 2 to play an announcement.

Press 1 to enter programming mode.

4. Enter the four-digit security code (see System Passwords, Appendix B, or

under Database Configuration, Figure 3-2) for programming mode and
press # (pound).

NOTE: If you dialed Port 2, the APS Custom will automatically transfer you to Port 1

for re c o rding. You will be prompted to re-enter the 4-digit security code.

5. The system prompts you to select the specific programming function you wish

to perform. Press 1 to record a name, press 2 to record an announcement,
press 3 to delete a name, press 4 to delete an announcement and press 5 to
exit programming.

To program the unit, all ports, including the outbound port, must be idle. The process
of clearing the ports for programming is called “busying out the system”. While in the
busy out mode, the unit can not handle calls and blocks calls in to the unit until you exit
the programming mode. If you are trying to enter programming mode while the APS
Custom is processing a call on another port, the APS Custom will ask you to please wait.
When the other ports are finished processing the current calls(s), the APS Custom will
let you enter programming mode.
