In most cases, you will be at an intermediate step in the procedure you have just
completed. At that point, you can select one of the options shown on the screen
and continue programming, or you can press
( ) again. This usually takes
you back to the System Programming menu. If not, you again can continue
programming on the current screen or press
( ) again.
Idle States 2
A few of the programming procedures can be started only when the entire system
or some part of it, such as a trunk or an extension, is idle (not in use). Some
procedures require that the trunk or extension be idle only at the instant of
programming. Other procedures, which take longer, require the system, trunk, or
extension to be forced into remaining idle until programming is completed. These
procedures wait for the system, trunk, or extension to become idle and then
prevent the initiation of any new calls. This condition is called
forced idle.
NOTE:NOTE:NOTE:
If a procedure requires an idle condition, perform the programming outside
of normal business hours.
If a procedure requires that the system be in an idle state and the system is busy
when you begin, you see the screen shown below.
The screen changes to the appropriate programming screen when the system is
no longer busy.
System Forced Idle 2
When the entire system is forced idle, no calls can be made or received. The
procedures listed below can be performed only when the entire system (every line
and every extension) is idle:
Select system mode
Identify system operator positions
Renumber boards
