SET PHONE (S P)
Introduction
Use the SET PHONE, or S P command to configure the channel for the
characteristics of the telephone or telephones (in multiple-user environments)
used on that channel.
Note: All telephones on one channel share the same SET PHONE settings.
Telephone characteristics
You can use the SET PHONE command to configure the following
characteristics:
■
CORDLESS PHONE ATTACHED (YES OR NO)
This setting identifies whether a 2616CT cordless telephone is used as the
primary telephone at the remote site. A cordless telephone requires slightly
different programming to provide complete HomeOffice II functionality.
■
INDICATOR UPDATE MODE (ENABLE OR DISABLE)
This setting identifies the status of Indicator Update, an On-demand Mode
feature. Indicators on remote telephone sets require a data call every time
they change to reflect activity on the local switch.
When Indicator Update is disabled, indicators go blank when a data call
goes down. When Indicator Update is enabled, the HLC places a data call
to the RDB to update the remote telephone’s indicators whenever there is a
change in indicator status.
This feature allows users operating in the On-demand Mode to receive
changes in indicator status as they happen. It is also useful in ACD
situations where it is necessary to monitor call flow.
Note: If you answer “Yes” to the first query
, Cordless Phone
Attached (YES or NO),
Indicator Update is automatically enabled for
this channel.
