PERATIONS

You can add and configure third-party telephones for use on an NBX 
system. The third-party vendor supplies the interface hardware and a 
software package to support the telephones.

The process of adding third-party telephones has these steps:

■

Install the device type license — Each third-party device type 
(typically a telephone) must be licensed for use on the NBX system. 
The license governs the type of device and the number of devices of 
that type that can be added to the NBX system.

■

Installing the software driver — This step places the third-party 
driver software on the NBX system disk.

■

Importing — This step activates the third-party driver software.

See the Help for instructions on these procedures.

When you upgrade the NBX system software, you do not need to reinstall 
and import the third-party drivers, provided that you continue to use the 
same NBX database after the upgrade.

If you upgrade the NBX system software and choose to start with a new 
database, or if you revert to a database that did not include the 
third-party driver, you must import the third-party driver again.

When you install and import a third-party driver, a new telephone group 
is created for the third-party telephone type. When you add third-party 
telephones to the NBX system, by default they are added to this group.

You cannot delete the default third-party telephone group.

A third-party telephone can belong to the default third-party telephone 
group, or to a telephone group that you create for that third-party 
telephone.
