46xxsettings.txt

[scisystems]

I am new to Avaya and I am needing to know how to access the 46xxx=settings.txt

I have a TFTP service running on my laptop but how do I get to the 46xxsettings?

I ahve looked on the Embedded SD card files and do not see it.

Go ahead and tell me this is IPO 101.

this is IPO 101 but seeing that you are still on IPO 100
the file is either on your TFTP or HTTP server or you can also find it in the Manager folder on the server/PC you run the Manager program on.
you find it in C:/Program files (x86 for the 64 bit OS)/Avaya/Manager
If you use the Manager as TFTP server then the default directory is the correct folder (see files - change working directory)

hope it helps

Give a tech a solution and he will be back tomorrow to ask you the next question, teach a tech how to read the manual and he will be able to solve the problems for a life time.

Why do you need the 46xxsettings.txt?
The IP500v2 does send a default one to the phones when it is not on the SD card.
The same applies to all kind of other files like language files.


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

Thank you very much Westi.

I wanted to find where to set the screensaver timer as well as the image on the 9608 telephones.

If I modify the:
SET SCREENSAVERON 240

SET SCREENSAVER 96xxiposs.jpg

Create a image 320x160 and name it 96xxiposs.jpg

How does the 9608 phone know where to pull this data

When the 9608 first gets plugged into a network port it reaches out for a bunch of files.
It will grab an upgrade file first: 96x1Hupgrade.txt

*********************************************
* Application and Kernel file for 9608
*********************************************
# 9608SW
SET RFSNAME S96x1_UKR_V13r50_V13r50.tar
SET APPNAME S9608_11HALBR6_2_2_09U_V452.tar- The phone reaches out to grab this file
GOTO GETSET- the phone is then told to go to the next step which is GETSET


********************************************
* Get the settings file
********************************************
# GETSET
GET 46xxsettings.txt- The phone is told to reach out for the 46xxsettings.txt file

IF you are using something other than the IPO as a http/tftp server you need to make sure that all the files necessary are in the correct folder for the http/tftp server program to hand out.

If this is a small site or a test environment I would suggest using the IP Office itself. By default the IP Office hands out a 46xxsettings.txt file. You will not see this on the SD card. What you need to do is browse to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager

Locate the 46xxsettings.txt file, copy it, and paste it to your desktop. This will be the file you want to edit, leaving the original file in its location
C:\Program Files (x86)\Avaya\IP Office\Manager

You can name the .jpg anything you want say ScreenSaver.jpg
-Be sure to remove the hash marks to the right of the text.
SET SCREENSAVERON
SET SCREENSAVER


################ AVAYA SCREEN SAVER SETTINGS ###################
##
## Idle time before the Avaya Screen Saver is activated (minutes).
## Number of minutes without phone activity to wait
## before the screen saver is activated. A value of 0 means
## the screen saver is never activated. The default is 240 minutes.
## This parameter does not apply to 16cc SIP phones.
##
## Note:
## This setting activates the Avaya Screen Saver which is
## different than the "idle screen" accessed by WMLIDLEURI.
## While it is possible to use WMLIDLEURI as an "idle
## screen", it is recommended that the SCREENSAVERON
## timer and the Avaya Screen Saver display be used for
## screen saver purposes.
##
SET SCREENSAVERON 2
##
## The automatic default for Release 6 - applicable to 9600 phones
## This can be modified to add your companies own screen saver

Save the file.


Now open up your IP Office Manager Software. Login to the Control unit you need to add the file to. Select Embedded file management.
Under the primary folder dump the 46xxsettings.txt file in there as well as the .jpg file you wish to use as the screen saver.
Now the phones will read off of this 46xxsettings.txt file instead which includes the edited data to activate and download the screen saver.
