OVERVIEW
Once you have installed the system hardware, it is time to specify how you want the system to operate, using the
programmable DX-120 features. You need to set up the following:
system settings such as system date and time, day/evening modes, and the numbering plan needed to meet your
customers' needs (
“Section 4 - Programming System Resources” on page 39)
the interface to the CO lines coming into the system (“Section 5 - Programming C.O. Lines” on page 115)
how you want the system to handle and process calls (“Section 6 - Programming Call Handling” on page 187)
any restrictions you want in place for toll calls (see “Section 7 - Programming Toll Restrictions” on page 329)
Uniform Call Distribution - if applicable (see “Section 8 - Programming ucd groups” on page 341)
internal or external voice mail - if applicable (see “Section 9 - Programming Voice Mail” on page 361)
privileges for all extensions (see “Section 10 - Programming Extensions” on page 385)
feature buttons on individual DET phones and DSS consoles (see “Section 10 - Programming Extensions” on
page 385)
PROGRAMMING OPTIONS
There are three approaches you can take when programming a DX-120 system. Each approach has its advantages
and disadvantages.
You may prefer one approach and use it often, but you may occasionally need to use an
alternative approach.
You can:
Program the system on site using any Digital Extension Terminal (DET) phone.
Program the system on site using PC-DBA, this Windows-based software program.
Program the database using PC-DBA on a laptop prior to arriving at your customer’s site. Then when you arrive
on site, you can download the pre-programmed database into the DX-120 system in a minimal amount of time.
Advantages and Disadvantages of the Various Programming Methods
SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
PROGRAMMING METHODS
Programming Interface Advantages Disadvantages
DET phone
You do not need a laptop PC to
program the database.
The phone is a direct interface to the
CPU, so there is no chance of
database corruption during
transmission. If you are having a
unidentifiable or persistent problem,
use DET phone programming to
eliminate the possibility of a corrupt
database.
You have a limited visual interface
(the phone display) vs. a menu
screen.
You have to do all programming on
site.
DET phone programming can take
longer to perform than PC-DBA
programming.
You cannot save the current switch
database. If you lose this database
because of battery failure or
because you have to perform a
Master Clear, you will have to
completely reprogram the database.
