System Programming Maintenance
Idle States 8
A few of the programming procedures can be started only when the entire
system or some part of it, such as a trunk or an extension, is idle (not in use).
Some procedures require that the trunk or extension be idle only at the instant
of programming. Other procedures, which take longer, require the system,
trunk, or extension to be forced to remain idle until programming is completed.
These procedures wait for the system, trunk, or extension to become idle and
then prevent the initiation of any new calls. This condition is called forced idle.
If a procedure requires that the system be in an idle state and the system is
busy when you begin, the screen shown below displays.
The screen changes to the appropriate programming screen when the system
is no longer busy.
If a procedure requires an idle condition, perform the programming
outside of normal business hours.
