TTI will enable you to easily create/install and move phones. With TTI you don't have to assign an address to an extension when you create a phone. You can assign an address from the phone itself.
When you have enabled TTI on the Sys Param Screen you also need to assign an Feature Access Code. Otherwise it will not work.
Do a change Feature-access-code and assign a value to the item Terminal Translation Initialization Merge Code and Terminal Translation Initialization Seperation Code (Page 3 on my PBX).
The first code will assign an address to the station, the second code will remove the address from the station.
This is what you do to create and place a phone with TTI:
1) Create the phone as you do on a daily basis but put the address to X.
2) patch a free connection to the desk were the phone will be used.
3) Walk to the desk and connect the phone. You have a dialtone but that is all. No extension is yet assigned to the phone. All standard featurs off the phone will not work (like transfer, hold,...)
4) Enter the first code, the security code (if used) and the extension you just created
5) You will hear short beeps and your job is done.
All features (transfer, hold,..) will now work.
Example:
TTI Merge Code: *98 Security code: 2580
TTI Seperation Code: *89
You just created extension 1234 and have patched a free
connection to the desk.
Connect the phone and dial *9825801234
Phone has now extension 1234.
Example 2 (move a phone):
Make sure that a new free connection is patched were
the phone has to be moved (the user's new desk)
Walk over to his phone and dial *8925801234.
The address from extension 1234 is now removed.
Walk to his new desk and connect the phone.
Dial *9825891234. New address is assigned to the phone
and extension 1234 works again. Move done.
Hope this helps.
Erik.
