DXP Plus Programming InstructionslMi66-123 Reviewing General Programming ConsiderationsSince the programming procedure is menu driven, you should consider all of the following points. lThe menu presents a list of selections for your consideration. Each selection differs in content and requires a different response. lWhen you respond to each selection, it either causes the system to present a further breakdown of selections or causes a particular programming action to take place. lMenu lines prompt you for the required response and, where appropriate, will repeat prompts to allow programming of more than one device without you having to make another menu selection. lAll of the menus operate in a similar manner. They differ in only the required response that you must make. lSome menus contain more than one page. On these menus, you can press and hold the CONTROL key while you type the N key to display the next page (or type P to display the previous page). lEach prompt requires a response followed by a Carriage Return (RETURN). A more common label for this control on most PC keyboards is ENTER. lMost menu responses usually consists of a one-, two-, or three-digit number or a string of numbers (or alpha-numeric characters when programming names and messages). Successive entries are separated by a space or a comma (n n n or n,nn,nnn) while blocks of numbers are indicated by hyphen (n-nnn). lShould programmers introduce a numbering conflict while renumbering a feature dialing code, the system will prompt them to remove the conflict. They may have to renumber several features to completely clear any conflicting numbers. AtoZ KELLATRONICS, INC, a General Programming Considerations 2-1
3 Understanding Keyboard And Terminal Definrtions 3.1Reviewing The Keyboard DefinitionsThe following list describes the functional keys on the keyboard. l Number keys:Use keys O-9 for selecting menu items, lines of data to edit, or for editing numeric prompts. l Alphabetic keys:Use keys A-Z and a-z for entering string information such as names and messages. Always begin names of stations, lines, and so forth with a letter or a space. l ESCAPE key:This key will return you to the previous command prompt and cancel whatever input was in progress. This action may or may not cause the previous screen to be redrawn depending on the current mode. When you enter a change at most of the programming menus, you must press the ESCAPE key and type a y followed by the ENTER key to save the change. lPunctuation and Symbol keys:Except for comma (which is a field delimiter), use the punctuation and symbols on the keyboard just as you use the alphabetic keys. lRETURN or ENTER key:Use this key to terminate the response to a command prompt or to end the editing of a data field.The system ignores a RETURN without any preceding input except when you are editing database information. During this operation, the RETURN key moves the cursor to the next vertical editing position l SPACE BAR: l Tab Key: l Question mark (?):The space bar steps through the choices for program selections that provide multiple choices. Use this key during table editing to position the cursor to the next horizontal editing position. This key will display any help available concerning the currently displayed screen.

/M/66-123DXP Plus Programming Instructions 3.2Reviewing The Control Key DefinitionssThe following list describes the control key functions. Unless otherwise noted, control keys are valid input at any time during programming. 0Control C (C for Cancel): lControl E (E for Edit or Erase): 0Control I (I for Increment): lControl N (N for Next): 0Control P (P for Previous): lControl R (R for Redraw): 0Control X (X for exit): 0Control S (S for Stop): lControl T (T for Top): 0 Control V:This key will cancel the current mode or function and return you to the last command prompt. Use this key to edit a selected field or entry. On “smart” terminals, most fields will be automatically cleared when the first character is entered. Some fields allow the you to add to the current entry. On these types of fields, Control E will clear the entry and position the cursor at the beginning of the field. You can also use this key to erase a field that has blanks for valid input such as an autodial number. Use this key during table editing to position the cursor to the next horizontal editing position. Use this key to switch to the next page of data for those database items that fill more that one screen. There will always be an on screen note when this key is valid. This key is identical to the Control N key except that it displays the previous page of information. When you press this key the system will redraw the current screen display. Usually, you use this key when the terminal display is configured in brief mode. This key will return you to the previous command prompt and cancel whatever input was in progress. This action may or may not cause the previous screen to be redrawn depending on the current mode. When you enter a change at most of the programming menus, you must press the ESCAPE key and type a y followed by the ENTER key to save the change. Use this key to stop printouts. Use this key to cancel whatever input was in progress and return to the top level menu. The top level menu will always be redrawn Use this key to turn the entry field prompting on or off. 3.3Reviewing The Terminal Mode Definitionsl Control A: l Control D: l Control W:Use this key to cause the system to send and receive data to an ANSI style terminal Use this key to cause the system to send and receive data to a “dumb” terminal. Use this key to cause the system to send and receive data to a Wyse 50 compatible terminal. 3-2 Keyboard And Terminal Definitions
DXP Plus Programming Instructions/M/66-123 L-l Reviewing The Command 4 Prompts and Error Reporting 4.1Reviewing The Command PromptsThere are four different types of command prompts. lMenu Selection Prompt: Use this prompt to make a menu selection. The system requires a numeric input and displays the valid range of numbers in the prompt that corresponds to the number of menu items displayed. lEdit Line Prompt: Use this prompt on database editing screens to get to the desired line number to be edited. The system requires a numeric input and displays the valid range of numbers in the prompt that corresponds to the number of menu items displayed. A RETURN (ENTER) at this prompt will automatically select the first item. 0Station, Line or Class Of Service Prompt: Use this prompt to get to the particular item or items that are to be edited. This prompt is waiting for numbers, a range of numbers, or names. You may specify a single item or multiple items separated by commas,Select a range of items by entering two numbers separated by a dash. The prompt shows the valid range of numbers but the system will accept names. The system accepts an item as a name if the fast character is not a number. The system displays the database information of each item one at a time for viewing or editing. When you use the ESCAPE key to exit the database information screen, the system displays the next item in the list. When you use CONTROL C to exit the screen, all list processing stops and the prompt display returns. When you use CONTROL T to exit the screen, the system stops all list processing and displays the top level menu. lMultiple Choice Question Prompt: This type of prompt asks a specific question concerning the current screen or function and shows the valid responses. Enter these responses as a single character followed by a RETURN (ENTER). 4.2Reporting ErrorsPressing unexpected keys (such as letters when only numbers are allowed) or entering an out-of-range value at a prompt causes the keyboard alarm to sound. The system responds to other types of input errors by displaying an error message on the screen as soon as it detects the error. If the system detects a value-out-of-range error, and if the valid range is not currently shown in the display, the error message includes the valid range of values for reference. There is one circumstance for which the system does not report an entry error and this is when you are listing items at a station, line or COS prompt.In this case, the system processes valid items in the list up to the first invalid item that it encounters. It does not report the encountered invalid item as an error. Command Prompts and Error Reports 4-1

lM166-123DXP Plus Programming Instructions 6. IDefault Functional Programming 6.1.1Master Clear Description.= Programming: The master clear feature in an on-line procedure that returns the entire system to the default operating parameters, clears all stored speed dial numbers, and clears any other custom programming as well. The system takes 15 to 20 seconds to exercise a master clear command depending upon the system size. You can take one of three different master clear options. With master clear mode 1 option, the system assumes a set of parameters that reflect a key system arrangement. This means that multiline telephones, except logical station port 1 and 2, receive direct line appearances in their button maps but have no group intercoms assigned to their hunt lists. Logical station ports 1 and 2 have four group intercom numbers assigned to their hunt lists and are button mapped accordingly. With master clear mode 2 option, the system assumes a set of parameters that reflect a hybrid, or PBX-like, system arrangement. This means that multiline telephones have no direct line appearances in their button maps; however, they do have two unique group intercoms assigned to their button maps and to their hunt lists. With master clear mode 3 option, the system assumes a set of parameters, that does not map any station buttons, assigns no group intercom access or personal intercom numbers to the stations, and disables both zone and all-call paging features. 1. Press CONTROL T for main menu. 2. From main menu, select system and press ENTER. 3. From system menu, select defaults and press ENTER. 4. Select master clear and press ENTER. 5. Type y or n (yes or no) to confirm master clear; press ENTER. 6. Select system default mode (1 = mode 1 9 2 = mode 2,3 = mode 3) and press ENTER. You can only exercise the master clear when you enter the programming session with the installer password; however, in a defaulted system, the administrator password is the same as the installer password thus giving master clear privileges to the administrator as well. Refer to Section 6.11 to customize the passwords. 6-2 Sys tern Fea fores Programming
