Administration Without Hardware can be used to streamline system initializations,
major additions, and rearrangement/changes by allowing telephone translations
to be entered before the actual ports are assigned.

Terminal Translation Initialization
DEFINITY ECS provides terminal translation initialization, a feature that works with
Administration Without Hardware. Terminal translation initialization associates the
terminal translation data with a specific port location through the entry of a spe-
cial feature-access code, a terminal translation initialization security code, and
an extension number from at a terminal that is connected to a wired

terminal translation data with a specific port location through the entry of a spe-
cial feature-access code, a terminal translation initialization security code, and
an extension number from at a terminal that is connected to a wired

jack.
Once a terminal is connected to an appropriate jack, the terminal user can dial
the appropriate codes followed by a pre-translated extension number of an
Administration Without Hardware terminal. The system will complete the adminis-
tration of the terminal by associating the translation data with the port location
and performing appropriate checks.

tration of the terminal by associating the translation data with the port location
and performing appropriate checks.
Terminal translation initialization reduces the labor associated with system initial-
izations, major additions, rearrangement and changes, and building wiring.
Translation data entry can be performed without knowledge of the physical layout
of circuit packs. End-users can move their own station equipment if a building is
wired to support it, reducing costs for station moves. Individual lines need only
be wired to the correct type of port, rather than a specific port.
