Idle States 6
You can begin some programming procedures only when all or part of the system
is not in use; this is called an
idle state. The idle state must remain in effect until
you finish programming.
NOTE:
If a procedure requires an idle state, do it outside normal business hours.
If a procedure requires an idle state and an extension on the system is busy when
you begin, you see a screen like the one shown in
Figure 6–6 . It changes to the
appropriate programming screen when the system is no longer busy.
Figure 6–6. Station Busy Screen
Table 6–4 explains the various idle states, including a description of each state
and the procedures that can be performed only during that idle state.
NOTES:
1. The table includes all the procedures that fall into each idle-state
category. Procedures that should be performed only by a Lucent
Technologies technician are noted.
2. When an extension is in programming mode, the system considers it
busy. Thus, to perform a backup, make sure that no telephone is in
programming mode.

Display/Key Function
Complete a procedure. In a few cases, you return to the System
Programming menu when you select
Exit . In most cases, you return
to an intermediate step within the procedure. You can then select one
of the options shown on the screen and continue programming, or you
can continue to use
Exit until you return to the System Programming
menu.
