C.4.7 Locations
Location parameters configure the deployment location for the phones that are controlled by
your system. You can specify an identifier and a time zone location for each location in the
configuration file.
C.4.7.1 Specifying a Location
Each location requires two settings: the identifier and the time zone.
• Lx configures the text that identifies the location. For example:
L1=Sunnyvale
specifies a location in Sunnyvale
L2=Franklin Road
may indicate a location somewhere on Franklin Road
Each location must be identified by a unique tag that is constructed with the letter L followed
by an integer and an equals sign:
L1=Sunnyvale
L12=Chicago
L35=Manhattan
• Tx configures the time zone for the location. Numerical offsets from GMT or Linux time zone
constants can be used to specify time zone values. For example:
T1=America/Los_Angeles
specifies the Pacific Time Zone in the USA
T2= +720
specifies a time zone that is six hours (720 minutes) later than GMT
Each time zone setting is linked to a location identifier, which is constructed with the letter T
followed by the location’s integer and an equals sign:
T1=America/Los_Angeles
T12=CST+6:00
T35=EST+5:00
are all valid time zone indicators.
C.4.7.2 Default Location
After specifying the available locations, you can select one as a Default Location. Setting the
default location from the configuration file bypasses the location selection step when booting the
phone, as described in section 3.2.3. The command to select a default location is def_location:
def_location=Sunnyvale
