Programming the System. You can change your system’s settings
easily to accommodate new or expanding needs. Chapter 2 provides
general programming information, while Chapter 5 provides detailed
instructions for programming specific system features.
Training Co-Workers. Chapter 3 explains how system and standard
phones work with the system. To help train co-workers on telephone
basics, you can share this information with them. Also, give each
telephone user a Quick Reference card and a filled-in copy of the “Speed
Dial” form from the System Planner.
Using Auxiliary Equipment. The system supports a wide variety of
auxiliary equipment, including fax machines, modems, answering
machines, and call reporting devices. Chapter 4 provides advice on
setting up these devices to work effectively with the system.
Daily Operation. Depending on how your system is set up, you may
need to oversee some of the system’s daily operations. For example, you
may need to turn on Night Service at the end of each day before leaving
the office. Reference information on all features, including descriptions
and instructions for using each feature, is provided in Chapter 5.
