Programmable feature keys
and Esi-Link: An introduction
For only ESI Communications Servers, IVX X-Class,
and IVX E-Class.
If necessary, consult your System Administrator for more details.
With Esi-Link, you assign dialing information to your ESI Feature Phone’s programmable feature keys in the usual way — i.e., if a remote location station or mailbox is to be assigned to a programmable feature key, enter the location number followed by the station’s extension number or the mailbox number.
Note:
Programmable feature key lamp status of a remote location extension will appear only if the extension is included in the “published” extension list of the remote location. Contact your System Administrator if you need more information about published extensions.
Tip:
You can use direct programming to program Esi-Link locations and extensions.
Examples
