BusinessPhone Communication Platform 6.0
Dialogs

## Programmable Keys

In BMS, you can configure the programmable keys for each extension.

To access the dialog, click on the “Extensions” menu in the Configuration directory tree to view the submenu. Select “List extensions” and click on a directory number to open the Extension Parameter dialog is displayed. On top of the dialog, you will find a navigation bar. Click on the “Programmable Keys” item to open the dialog.

The dialog consists of the following sections:

- General
- Key Layout or Key Resources
- Key utility (only available if Key Resources is shown or if the phone has a DSS connected)

On top of the dialog, you will find a check box called “(Un)Select all commands”. This is a toggle box: If no command has been checked, you can select all commands with just one click. If all commands in the list are checked, click in the check box to deselect all commands.

To view and edit the programmable keys of an extension, select a number from the Directory Number drop-down list box. Alternatively, you can enter the directory number directly in the field aside and click on the “Go to extension” link.

For more information about a setting or a field, click on the command link in brackets to open the online help system.

### General

If you are in online mode, BMS tries to determine the terminal type of the selected extension. Depending on the result, BMS will provide a dialog with the appropriate key layout(s) for the programmable key configuration.

If you are in offline mode, you must enter the general extension data manually. If BMS cannot detect the terminal type, a default key layout with the maximum number of programmable keys is provided

The following commands are available:

5601 |  | Extension directory number

6501 |  | Directory Name

0168 |  | Use ACD key layout?

0201 |  | Allocate resources for programmable keys

### Key Layout or Key Resources

You can choose between key layout or key resources (selectable via button).

- Key Layout comprises all physically available keys of an instrument including keys on 1st DSS, 2nd DSS, 3rd DSS and 4th DSS.
- Key Resources is a default key layout with the maximum number of programmable keys.

If BMS cannot detect the terminal type, a default key layout with the maximum number of programmable keys is provided.

To add or change a programmable key, click on the button right to each field to open the Programmable Key Function Selection.

To copy the key data to another terminal, select the respective check box(es) on the left and click on the Copy button below.

For more information, click on the link of the following command:

0301 |  | Key function

### Warning indication:
(available only, if Key Layout is shown)

The terminal has currently more key resources allocated than required. (might happen e.g. if a DBC 222 + 1 DDS is changed against a DBC 223 + 1 DDS or vice versa - due to the different memory allocation)

### Key utility
(available only, if the phone has a DSS connected, or if Key Resources is shown)

The key utility makes it possible to move all keys on all DSSes 10 positions up or down. (might be necessary, in case that a DBC 222 + 1 DDS is changed against a DBC 223 + 1 DDS or vice versa - due to the different memory allocation)

#### Actions

Reload |  | To load the current system settings and to discard all entered data or changes. |
Copy |  | To copy the settings to another device. |
Back |  | To return to the previous dialog. |
