3 Setting Up Your System
20 System Programming Basics
Quick Reference Guide
• Telephone Programming allows telephones to be customized to meet
individual users’ needs. There are two types of Telephone Programming,
depending from where you program.
– Centralized Telephone Programming–programming individual
telephones from extension 10 or 11.
– Extension Programming–programming an individual system
telephone from the extension to which it is connected.
You need a system display telephone for System and Centralized Telephone
Programming. If you have any 34-button telephones in the system, you must use
a 34-button display telephone to program since an 18-button telephone cannot
be used to program a 34-button telephone. Also, if your system has both
PARTNER and MLS telephones, you should use a PARTNER display telephone
at the programming extension.
Endeavor telephones are supported in PARTNER ACS Release 5.0 or later
when an Endeavor 362EC module is installed in the carrier. The Endeavor
telephones are programmed the same as PARTNER-34D, -18D, -18, and -6
telephones and have the same button layouts.
• The PARTNER ACS Release 3.0 or later includes a PCMCIA
Remote Access PC Card, which is used as follows:
– When you initially insert the PC Card into the PARTNER ACS
and the system is powered up, the PC Card upgrades the
existing software to the latest version.
– After you program the system, the card acts as a storage/backup
device for saving your system settings, which can be used to
restore the system in case these settings are lost for any reason.
– The card provides remote access to the PARTNER ACS via a
local or remote personal computer. This requires a modem and
additional software that must reside on your computer.
• If you are installing a voice messaging system with the PARTNER
ACS, you must assign the voicemail ports to Hunt Group 7 to avoid
having the voicemail ports answering all calls immediately.
