Copying a set

The following describes the procedure for creating a new set by copying all the attributes from another, known good one. This is useful for ensuring that class of service (CLS), voice mail access, and network access rectrictions (NCOS) are correctly programmed in the new set. Remember:

• DN (Directory Number) is the telephone number
• TN (Terminal Number) is the physical station port

The Terminal Number (TN) defines the hardware location of the telephone:

• Large System TN's: <loop> <shelf> <card> <unit>
• Small System TN's: <card> <unit>

The following cannot be copied:

• ACD supervisory telephones.
• Mobile Extension (TYPE = UEXT).

Overlays:

The following overlays (loads) are required:

• LD 10: Analog (500/2500) Telephone Administration
• LD 11: Digital Telephone Administration

From Release 19, overlay programs 10, 11, 20 (Print Routine 1) are linked, thus eliminating the need to exit one overlay and enter another. Therefore, the following commands may all be issued in any of these overlay programs.

Copy a set to new TN, with new DN...

CPY 1: Copy 1 set - CFTN: copy from TN - TN: to new TN - DN: with new DN

REQ: CPY 1                   copy to 1 new instance
TYPE: 2008                   type may not change
CFTN 12 0 14 11              copy from TN
DES  C1B015

*** MAKE PRINTER READY ***
TN   08 0 13 01              to new TN
DN   3456                    with this new DN

NEW 2008    TN12 0 14 12     DN  3456

SCH5525
*** FINISHED ***

SCH5525 indicates that the new TN's are MARP's for the new prime DN's. It is an info, not an error.

The new set is an exact copy of the CFTN, except for its primary DN, so it may be necessary to edit some of the programming afterwards. This can be done with Easy change. Check the DES (description), feature KEYs, and message waiting key DN (MWK).

Multiple Copies:

Above we used CPY 1 to make one copy. We can also create more copies, eg, 3 with CPY 3, which is useful when adding a number of new sets. When doing muliple copies, a new prompt appears:

SFMT aaaa - Select format, where aaaa can be: AUTO, TNDN, TN, or DN.

These responses are described below:

AUTO	- Automatically provides new TN's and DN's. Note the TTY output using this command.
TNDN	- Manual selection of TN's and DN's. Both TN and DN are prompted for each copy.
TN	- New DN's are automatically provided, TN is prompted for each copy.
DN	- New TN's are automatically provided, DN is prompted for each copy.

Easy change:

'Easy change' is a way to target specific service changes, without having to enter through the whole data block.

Prompt	Response	Description
REQ:	CHG	Change request
TYPE:	aaaa	Telephone type, where: aaaa = 2016, 2616, etc.
TN	l s c u	Terminal Number (loop shelf card unit -or- card unit)
ECHG	YES	Easy Change? But of course!
ITEM	aaaa yyy	Item (aaaa = Program mnemonic ; yyy = its new value)

After changing the desired ITEMs, <enter> until you return to the REQ prompt.
You cannot easy change an ACD set, these must be OUTed and rebuilt.
