The system will map up to 100 extensions to the Attendant Console.
These extensions will always be the lowest 100 extensions even if
these extensions are already mapped to an existing Attendant
Console. To map other extensions to an Attendant Console, you must
map the extensions manually using the Attendant Console Button
Mappings screen in the NBX NetSet utility.
Typically, you want to associate an Attendant Console with the telephone
beside it. If the Auto Discover process associates an Attendant Console
with a telephone other than the one you want, see
“Associating an
Attendant Console with a Specific Telephone” on page 136 for
instructions on how to change the association.
Do not Auto Discover the Attendant Console before you have configured
all telephones and Analog Line Cards.
To Auto Discover an Attendant Console:
1 Login to the NBX NetSet utility as administrator and click System-wide
Settings > Auto Discovery.
2 Enable Auto Discover Attendant Consoles and click Apply .
3 Wait at least 2 minutes for the NBX system to Auto Discover the
Attendant Console and assign the extensions of all known telephones to
its buttons.
Attendant Console Notes
■
When automatically mapping extensions to an Attendant Console,
the system maps the first 100 extension to Attendant Console buttons
except for the extension associated with the Attendant Console. If you
add a second Attendant Console to the system, that Attendant
Console will also have the first 100 extensions mapped to its buttons.
To map extensions above the first 100, you must manually map the
extensions. For more about manually adding an Attendant Console
and mapping Attendant Console buttons, see Chapter 3, “Device
Configuration,” in the
NBX Administrator’s Guide.
■
When you are finished configuring the Attendant Console, you can
use the NBX LabelMaker utility to create printed labels.
Associating an
Attendant Console
with a Specific
Telephone
You can associate any 3Com telephone with an attendant console.
However, if you use a 3Com 3103 Manager’s Telephone, you cannot map
a CO line directly to a button on the Attendant Console and the
Attendant Console will not support Bridged Station Appearances.
