The GROUP System Value
Issue 1 April 2007 51
To do so, first identify which telephones are associated with which group, and designate a
number for each group. The number can be any integer from 0 to 999, with 0 as the default,
meaning your largest group would be assigned as Group 0.
Then, at each non-default telephone, instruct the installer or end-user to invoke the GROUP
Local (dialpad) Administrative procedure as specified in Chapter 3:
Local Administrative
Options and specify which GROUP number to use. Once the GROUP assignments are in place,
edit the configuration file to allow each telephone of the appropriate group to download its
proper settings.
Here is an illustration of a possible settings file for the example of a Call Center with hot-desking
associates at the same location:
IF $GROUP SEQ 1 goto CALLCENTER
IF $GROUP SEQ 2 goto HOTDESK
{specify settings unique to Group 0}
goto END
# CALLCENTER
{specify settings unique to Group 1}
goto END
# HOTDESK
{specify settings unique to Group 2}
# END
{specify settings common to all Groups}
