Using Attendant Console
To sort and move columns:
Station information can be sorted in ascending order by column by selecting on that
column’s header. You may also rearrange the columns by simply dragging column
headers to the desired position.
To search:
You can search for a specific station by simply typing in text. The Attendant Console
Programmer attempts to match characters with the data in the “Description” column and
numeric characters with the data in the “Extension” column. It then selects the station with
the best match. For example, if the following descriptions and extensions are in the list:
If you type
Smith, Ja it will find “Smith, Jack.” You could continue typing to select the
station with description “Smith, Jamie” or you could begin editing the highlighted station.
If you type “130” it will find and select the station with extension “1300”. You could
continue typing to select the station with extension “1308” or you could start editing the
currently selected station.
