ESI Communications Servers Product Overview

Range reassignment
Flexible number range assignment is used to change
the numbers of a block, or range, of extensions, speed-
dial numbers, guest mailboxes, or departments.
The flexible numbering plan is very useful in matching
station extension numbers with blocks of DID numbers
assigned by the telephone company. If a customer
already has an extension number directory assigned
and does not want to change it, the flexible dialing plan
will also accommodate this request.
Number reassignment
The number reassignment function will let the Installer
assign new — or reassign existing — numbers for
individual extensions, speed-dial numbers,
departments, and mailboxes.
Station move
Station move is used by the Installer or System
Administrator to move, or exchange, extension
numbers and other station information between
extensions of the same station type.

Programmable
feature keys, personal greetings, voice mail messages,
and other station information are automatically and
instantly exchanged between the two stations when
station move is done.
The Installer can use a separate programming function
for flexible reassignment of station and department
numbers through ESI System Programmer.
Esi-Link and selectable numbering
In an Esi-Link network, certain ESI Communications
Server selectable numbering templates can be
incompatible with some ESI systems. For additional
details about these compatibility issues, refer to the

Such stations must be like types — e.g., Digital Feature Phone to
Digital Feature Phone, IP Feature Phone to IP Feature Phone, or
analog extension to analog extension.
Optional ESI
Presence Management
ESI Presence Management — RFID scanning
technology combines with an ESI Communications
Server to offer an innovation in presence status, call
control, entrance security, and documented tracking of
users’ work hours and attendance history. Highlighted
benefits of ESI Presence Management include:
Remote entry control with built-in doorphone.
Access control through the use of authorized
electronic keys (key fobs or scan cards).
Presence indication to show “in” and “out” status
of employees on programmed DSS keys.
Personal Call Routing to modify the behavior of a
station when the user is scanned in or out.
Optional third-party software

to track, sort, and
prepare employees’ attendance data for easy entry
into common business payroll software applications.

Management, consult the ESI Presence Management
Product Overview (ESI # 0450-0794).
Optional ESI
Bluetooth Voice Integration
Optional ESI Bluetooth Voice Integration products
allow businesses to simplify and enhance
communications, using Bluetooth-enabled cell phones
and headsets with ESI Communications Servers.
Available products include ESI Cellular Management
and the ESI Bluetooth Headset Integration.
ESI Cellular Management is a Bluetooth access
device which interfaces directly with an ESI
Communications Server and lets busy professionals
make and receive cell phone calls on their ESI 48-Key
Feature Phone.

When a cell phone is connected via Bluetooth in range
of the access device, the cell phone’s calls are routed
to the destination programmed at installation: any 48-
Key Feature Phone extension, department, or mailbox.
The inbound cellular call is then managed by the ESI
Communications Server just like any other CO trunk
call and may access standard ESI features, such as
call forwarding, transferring, conferencing, call
recording, department call coverage, and routing to
mailboxes.

WaspTime software is not sold by ESI but, rather, is available for
