BusinessPhone Communication Platform 5.1
Dialogs

## Dialog Descriptions General

The following chapters describe all dialogs that are available within BMS.

## Basic principles

To login to BMS server, the MS Internet Explorer, Version 5.0 (Service Pack 2) or higher must be installed on your computer. You will need the Internet Explorer, because all dialogs are displayed in a browser window. There is no difference between the dialogs that will be displayed for a single or network installation. However, the single installation allows you to handle only the BusinessPhone systems that are connected directly to your computer. If you want to manage all BusinessPhone systems within your network, you need to install the BMS network version. Using BMS Remote v.24 Agent, the network installation allows the management of directly connected and remote BusinessPhone.

Note

When BMS is initially installed and no license has been applied, only a few programming and administrative functions can be executed.

See Start of Operation BP Management Suite (1537/ASB 150 02 Uen).

All dialogs are displayed in browser windows. To navigate and use BMS, please consider the following guidelines:

- The right mouse button is not available. To open a pop up menu - also called context menu -, just click on a field with the left mouse button.
- A fast clicking sequence will overwrite the previous action. This means that BMS will carry out the action that has been started with the last mouse click.
- BMS has an integrated command search function. You find the search feature below the directory tree. To look for a command, just enter the respective command and click on “Go”. Please note that although the search function is available in the Tools menu, you must return to the Configuration directory tree to use it.

- The browser windows do not have any standard navigation buttons. This means that there is no standard Back button as well, although some dialogs comprise a Back button within BMS.

- We decided not to use the standard navigation bar to avoid confusion. In general, the browser always stores the last picture in the cache, a process that may lead to wrong information displays after changing the BMS data. For example, if you could return to the previous page with the standard Back button after submitting some changes, the old unchanged data would be displayed again, regardless the fact that the data does not match with the actual settings. Additionally, there would not be any confirmation that you already changed the data.
- Therefore, each dialog will be loaded like a new dialog.

- No function keys are available in a browser window and you cannot use common shortcuts, i.e. control keys.

## Login Dialog

Enter the name and the complete address of your computer. If your entry is correct, the login dialog will appear.

In the Login dialog, enter your user ID and your password.

See Start of Operation BP Management Suite (1537/ASB 150 02 Uen).

Below the Password field, you find a language selection box with two options: “English” and “Deutsch”. Select the desired language of the context-sensitive help.

Note

You do not need to re-install BMS after you changed the language.
