Button labeling
M-series telephones have paper labels that fit onto the keycaps, and printed keycaps.
T-series telephones have a paper strip of labels that can be customized and printed using the
Desktop Assistant or Desktop Assistant Pro application. These applications are located under the
Client Applications button on the first Unified Manager web page. Desktop Assistant Pro requires
a LAN CTE keycode before it can be used.
IP telephones also have soft display labels. These feature labels can be changed under Telephony
Services, General Settings, Nortel IP Terminals, Feature labels . The IP Telephony
Configuration Guide describes this process in detail.
Default button assignments
During startup, the installer chooses one of the available telephony template (PBX or DID). Each
profile has a default features set which assigns automatically to the programmable buttons on
telephones plugged into the system, unless you configure different settings in the DN record. The
default features are listed, by telephone model, in the following sections in this chapter.
• “7316E digital phone button defaults” on page 436
• “7316 button defaults” on page 437
• “7406 cordless digital phone button defaults” on page 439
• “7208 button defaults” on page 438
• “7100 button defaults” on page 438
• “7000 button defaults*” on page 439
• “IP telephone button defaults” on page 440
Rules of default button assignment
• Line and intercom buttons assigned by default templates can be changed in programming.
handsfree and answer DN buttons are not assigned by default. When these features are
programmed, however, they are automatically assigned to specific buttons.
• Telephones can have a maximum of eight intercom button s . When Answer DNs are assigned,
they appear above the handsfree button, if there is one, at the bottom right-hand corner on the
telephone. The 7000 and 7100 digital phones, analog telephones, and portable telephones are
automatically assigned two intercom buttons.
• Default line button assignment starts on or near the top of the left column and descends. Default
button programming does not necessarily provide default line assignments.
• Line assignments can be moved by the user to more convenient buttons. Refer to the Telephony
Features Handbook for details.
