Demand Download Actions
1. Busyout/Release Command
A maintenance demand busyout/release request for a station will cause the
terminal to be downloaded regardless of its previous download status.
2. Feature Access Code
A Refresh Terminal Parameters Feature Access Code can be used to
request a terminal download action. When this code is followed by a “#”,
the programmable parameters for the current terminal are downloaded
when the terminal goes on-hook. When this code is followed by an
extension, the programmable parameters for the specified station are
downloaded.
This Refresh Terminal Parameters Feature Access Code is assigned on
the second page of the feature-access-codes screen.
A confirmation is returned if the download request is accepted. A busy tone
is returned if the request is made from a different station when the target
station is off-hook.
As a result of an entry of a Refresh Terminal Parameters Facility Access
Code, the first three green call appearance LEDs on the 84xx 603x
terminal are turned on for three seconds, if the station was successfully
downloaded. This is not true for the 302B1 terminal.
There is no visible display on a station for the other background or demand
download actions. As described below, the status station and status
attendant screens can be used to check the download status of a specified
terminal.
Status of Parameter Downloads
The status station and status attendant screens display the current download
status of individual 84xx, 603, and 301B1 terminals in the
Download Status

Possible reasons for no terminal download include:
■

Pending
The system is waiting to download the terminal. This may require the

hour. A demand download as described above may also be used to
initiate an immediate download.
