5.HOW TO USE THE
PROGRAMMING WINDOWS
5.1The database is divided up into %indows” that
permit the programmer to view and change the systemprogramming one section at a time. Each of the 
pro-
grammin~ windows contains boxes and/or buttons for
selecting and entering specific information. These in-
clude: Text Boxes, List Boxes, Command Buttons, 
Option Buttons, and Check Boxes. Samples of each are
shown in the following paragraphs.
53To move among items in a window, you may use
the TAB or 
ALT key, as follows:
Using the ‘MB key: Press the TAB key repeatedlyuntil the desired area is highlighted by a gray box
and a dark outline or filler. To move in reverse, press
the SHIFT and TAB keys at the same time.
Using the ALT key: Pressing a combination of the
ALT key and the underlined character allows you to
move directly to the desired area. (For example, inthe following sample Text Box, you would use
ALT-D because the “D” in Description is under-
lined).
53
When using a stand-alone PC, a mouse can be used
for selecting items. To select an item, simply point the
mouse cursor at the desired item and click the left but-
ton.A. 
TEXTBOX
5.4A text box is used when the requested information
requires typing. The vertical line is the cursor that indi-
cates where text will be inserted. As you type, the line
moves to the 
right, pushing any existing text to the right.
The line can be moved right or left using the arrow keys
on the keyboard or by pointing the mouse cursor at the
desired place and clicking the left button once.5.5 To move the cursor to a text box, follow the
instructions in paragraph 5.2. When the cursor appears
in the box, you can begin typing.
5.6The system recognizes both upper- and lower-case
characters. When typing, you may use either case or a
combination.5.7To correct mistakes made while entering informa-
tion or to erase existing information, back up using the
backspace or delete key and retype the entry.
5.8To delete the entire contents of a text box, high-
light the box. Then, press the backspace or delete key.B. 
LISTBOX
ExAMPm
Least-Cost Routing
Trunk Programming...5.9 The list box is used for several purposes, as
follows:Main Menu selections: In the main menu list 
box
shown above, selecting a listed item that is followed
by an ellipsis 
(...) causes other selections to appear
below it. For example, selecting Station Program-
ming will expand the list to show additional items.
However, Least-Cost Routing does not have an el-
lipsis and selecting it will lead directly to a program-
ming window.
‘Qped information: When programming items
such as do-not-disturb and reminder messages, the
list box shows the current values. Selecting one line
of the list box causes a smaller window with a text
box (like the one shown above paragraph 5.4) to 
ap
pear. After the information is entered in the text boxand you exit from the small window, the list box
shows the new information.
Enable/Disable and Yes/No listsz Items such assys-
tern features have only two states: enabled or dis-
abled. When these appear in a list box, selecting the
item changes the state of that item. For example, if
the station feature “CO Reseize” is enabled and you
wish to disable it, you would select the line contain-ing “CO Reseize” to change the status to “DIS-
ABLED” by pressing the SPACE BAR (see page
5-30 for an illustration).
Include/Exclude lists: Some programs require you
to list the stations or trunks that are on 
“iuclude” or
“exclude” lists. To move an item 
from one list to theother, select the desired item. It is automatically
moved to the other list.

5.10There are 
several methods for selecting a line in a
list box. They are as follows:l
Arrow keys: Use the up or down arrow key to move
the highlight bar. Press the SPACE BAR to select an
item while it is highlighted.l HOME, END, PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN
keys: You can use the HOME key to move directly to
the top of the list, or the END key to move directly to
the bottom. The PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys
move up or down the list one screen at a time.l
First letter or digit of desired item: When a list ispresented in alphabetical or numerical order, you
can quickly move to the first item begimting with a
specific letter 
or number by entering that character.
For example, when in a list of stations by name, you
can move to names that begin with “C” by pressing
the C key.l
Scroll bar: Along the right edge of the list box is a
band with an arrow at each end and a white box (as
shown in the List Box sample on the previous page).
This is a scroll bar and it is used, with the mouse cur-
sor, to move through the list. Point the cursor at ei-
ther of the arrows and click the left button to move
one line at a time, or point the cursor at the white box
and hold down the left button. Moving the mouse
“drags” the box up or down and scrolls through the
list. When the desired item is highlighted, press the
SPACE BAR or click the left mouse button to select
it.5.12Frequently, a command button is highlighted by
a dark border while you are programming in a window.
If so, pressing the
RE$TURN key will execute that com-
mand automatically. You do not need to TAB to the but-
ton first.D. OPTION BUTTON

Serial 2.
5.13Option buttons are used when there are two or
more options for a feature and you must choose only
one. The options are listed in a box and the buttons arelocated along the left. Selecting the desired button
places a dot in it to show which option was chosen.
5.14Option buttons can be selected using one of the
following methods:
0TAB by: Use the TAB key to advance to the box
surrounding the buttons, and the- up or down arrow
key to move the dot to the desired button.
0ALT key: Press the ALT key plus the underlined
character (in the sample above, you would use
&T-l or ALT-2).E.

5.11 Selecting a commandbutton executes a single
command. To select a command button, do one of thefollowing:
l
TAB key: Use the TAB key to advance to the com-mand button and to highlight it. Then press the
SPACE BAR to select it.
0 AIJT key: Press the ACT key plus the underlined
character. (In the sample above, you would use
ALT-X to execute the Exit command).
5.15Check boxes are used when a single option is
available that has only two states (on/off, enabled/dis-abled, or yes/no). When the box is selected, an X is
placed inside it to indicate an affirmative state (on, en-
abled, or yes). Selecting a box that already contains an
X, removes the X (off, disabled, or no).
5.16Check boxes can be selected using one of the fol-
lowing methods:
0TAB key: Use the TAB key to advance to the check
box to 
highright it. Then press the SPACE BAR to
select it.
0 ALT key: Press the ALT key plus the underlined
character. (In the sample above, you would use
ALT-A).

F.ITEM!3 THAT CANNOT BE SELECTED -
GRAY JTEMS
5.17Ifan item in a window appears in a light gray col-or, it 
camtot be selected unless an associated item is
highlighted. For example, in the System Configuration
window, the command button for Configuration 
cannotbe selected unless a line in the list box with “KSC
Board,” “TlC,” or “lDC Board” is highlighted, because
only these cards require special configuration program-
ming. But, when the proper line is highlighted, the com-
mand button appears in black and selecting it displays
the configuration window.
G.HOURGLASS SYMBOL CURSOR
5.18
Occasionally, the system will change the cursor
to an “hourglass” shape. This indicates that the system is
performing an internal operation and cannot respond to
input. Wait for the cursor to return to normal before en-
tering more information.H.
UPDAm TO DATABASE -EXIT SCREEN‘.- >\i.
5.19The following screen appears when an Exit corn-
mand button is selected. It offers the options of saying
the changes that were made in the associated window
and exiting to the Applications Menu (select Yes), exit-ing to the Applications Menu without 
saving the
changes (select No), or returning to the programming
window.to continue making changes (select Cancel).

6.1The first window that is shown when you start aprogramming session contains a list box with the
Applications menu which introduces the eight major
programming sections: Station Programming, System-wide Features, Toll Restriction, Least Cost Routing,
Trunk Programming, Attendants, Station Message De-
tail, and Service The window appears as shown above.
NOTE: The header in this window indicates that the ac-
tive session is remote (direct connection or modem) as
shown above. If the active session is a stand-alone, the
word “Remote” does not appear in the header. Note that
during a stand-alone session, data is written to a data-
base in the PC and 
not directly to the 256 System. The
stand-alone database must be transferred to the 256 Sys-
tem using the Save/Restore function. Direct and modem
connections will write information dire&y to the 256
System database.
6.2When programming a KF-rated system, LCR willstill appear in the Applications Menu, but when se-
lected, an error message is presented to remind the pro-
grammer that it is not available.
6.3LIST BOX: Each item in the list box, except
Least-Cost Routing, is followed by an ellipsis (...) to in-dicate that it 
contains submenus. These submenus ap
pear when the main menu line is selected. Selecting a
submenu line leads to a 
programrniq window.
