Using templates to add phones
A quick way to add phones is to copy the information from an existing phone and
modify it for each new phone. For example, you can configure one phone as a
template for an entire work group. Then, you merely duplicate the template station
screen to add all the other extensions in the group.
Note that only phones of the same model can be duplicated. The duplicate
command copies all the feature settings from the template phone to the new
phones.
To duplicate an existing phone:
1. Type
display station
nnnn
and press RETURN.
nnnn is the extension of the station screen you want to duplicate to use as a
template. Verify that this extension is the one you want to duplicate.
2. Press
CANCEL to return to the command prompt.
3. Type
duplicate station
nnnn
and press RETURN, where nnnn is the
extension you want to duplicate.
The system displays a blank Duplicate Station screen.
