Overview
In Chapter 4, you prepared to customize the premises equipment and individual
telephones to meet the needs of your business. This chapter explains how to
use programming to accomplish that.
There are two types of programming that you can perform:
System Programming lets you customize your premises equipment to ■
meet the needs of your business. You can program the premises
equipment from the MLS-model display phone at either extension jack 10
or 11, allowing you to program from extension jack 11 (the backup
programming extension) while the receptionist at extension jack 10 (the
primary programming extension) continues to handle calls. (An MLS-34D
phone is required for programming if your premises equipment includes
any MLS-34D phones; if not, you can use an MLS-12D phone.)
■
Preparation. See page 5-4, “System Programming Procedures,” to
find out how you get ready for System Programming.
■ Instructions. Detailed descriptions and step-by-step programming
instructions, with defaults, are on pages 5-10 through 5-14. These
tables are designed as a flowchart for initial System Programming; the
features are listed in the correct order for programming the system
after it is started up. (Troubleshooting features are indicated by a
broken phone symbol. For more troubleshooting information, see
page C-3.) System Speed Dial programming instructions are on page
5-14.
Telephone Programming lets users customize their telephones to meet ■
their individual needs; for example, users can program available phone
buttons for one-touch access to their most frequently used features and
telephone numbers. Telephone Programming is performed from the
phone at extension jack 10 or 11 using an MLS-34D or MLS-12D phone
(called Centralized Telephone Programming), or from a user’s extension
using an MLS- or MLC-model phone (called Extension Programming).
