Data Type Description/Recommended Settings
Network
Information You will need to know some basic information on the target network. Use this page to store all
pertinent information regarding the sites LAN and WAN connection.
• The type of data facilities you will be using for access to the Internet will dictate how much
bandwidth is available for phone calls.
• If you are going to use remote phones, SIP providers, or Branch Offices, you will need to
have a fixed IP address.
User Data Use this page to gather and store information for the extensions and stand alone mailboxes on
the PBX. This page allows you to export the extension information to another worksheet. Save
this worksheet as a .csv file and you can import it directly into the PBX, saving you time.
• Extension Numbers – required
• Name – required
• Email Address - required if the end user desires to use Unified Messaging
• Device – setting this in the worksheet will make your installation much easier when using
autoprovisioning and IP550/IP120 phones
• MAC Address – for the most part this field can be left blank. If using Aastra phones, it
may be more useful.
Voice mail only boxes may be created as well. You can print out a copy of this sheet and ask
your customer to fill it in or provide them the spreadsheet to fill out.
Groups Use this page to gather and store information about ring groups. This will allow you to build the
groups in the PBX much quicker at the time of install because everything has already been
decided upon in advance.
Menus Building menus in the PBX will be much easier once you have completed the sections pertaining
to Menus. In addition to the setting in the PBX, you will be able to have the end user write out the
prompt scripts, ensuring that the key press destinations match the dialogue the callers will hear.
Unified
Messaging Unified Messaging allows the PBX to send your voicemail messages directly to your email inbox.
Use this section to log the end users email server information.
Telephone
Lines If you know the telephone numbers for your telephone lines, it is good to have them all
documented ahead of time. You may want to route calls based on a particular number or specific
DID.
Music On
Hold When a caller is place on hold, park, or is in Queue for a group of extensions, music may be
played for them while they wait. The music on hold files can be uploaded to the system from your
browser. The music on hold files need to be in MP3 format for IP1100+ systems, and 8bit 8Khz
mono .wav file for the IP1000.
Licensing Most IPitomy systems come default with a license for 16 users/extensions. To activate the initial
license, you must have a connection to the internet and a license key will be uploaded to the
system. This is a security feature that protects the user for warranty coverage as well as against
unauthorized use. Filling out the User Data page will automatically tell you how many extensions
the system needs, at a minimum, to handle the desired users.
Branch Office This page will allow you to more accurately plan out an install that will have multiple sites
connected via Branch Office. Using unique numbering for each PBX will allow for easier calling
between sites.
The lightning bolt, found on the User Data section of the Setup Worksheet, accesses a macro
that allows you to export the User Data information pertaining to extension to another worksheet.
Once exported, you can save that worksheet as a .csv file, and then load it directly into the PBX.
