WHY CAN'T THEY INCLUDE THE FIELD TO ALLOW ME TO CHANGE THE GROUP ON PAGE 3 OF A STATION!!!!!!

If you really need to change 500, you should invest in learning scripting in procom. It's not super easy but probably easier than changing 500 phones manually. Plus you'll gain a new skill. 4410 emulation would be:

Function Command
Begin proc main
F1 CANCEL ^[OP
F2 ^[OQ
F3 ENTER ^[OR
F4 ^[OS
F5 ^[OT
F6 ^[OU
F7 NEXT PAGE ^[OV
F8 PREVIOUS PAGE ^[OW
<ENTER> ^M
transmit transmit ""
pause pause 1
Up Cursor ^[[A
Down Cursor ^[[B
Right Cursor ^[[C
Left Cursor ^[[D
End endproc



would look something like this:
proc main
transmit "ch stat 1234^M"
pause 1
transmit "^[OV ^[OV ^[[B ^[[B ^[[B"
pause 1
transmit "123 ^[OP"
endproc

You can build this all in excel relatively quickly, then copy and paste the whole thing into a procom script. The lengthy part is just tweaking the pauses and keystrokes.

shouldnt transmit "123 ^[OP" have OR for F3 instead of OP which is to cancel?

 

[lopes1211]

oops, yes you are correct.

well, here is what i did, in procomm, i went into the scripts menu & started a recording, did a change, then stopped recording. below is what was captured:

proc main
transmit "ch stat 8675309^M"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[OV"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[OV"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[[B"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[[B"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[[B"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "456^M"
waitfor "^[[4m"
transmit "^[OR"
endproc


i tried it again & changed the 456 to 123, ran the script & it worked just fine, i guess i have a lot of copy & pasting to do

The copy and paste can be done in less than a couple minutes using the concatonate formula in excel. I may not be able to describe well but most stuff repeats (in your case every 15 steps). For instance:

waitfor "^[[4m"

will repeat on line 2, 16, 31, etc. You can add a column in excel and just drag down and you'll get:

2
16
31
46

.......

Do the same for transmit "^[OV"
3
17
32
47

...........

for lines 1, 15, 30, etc. you will have 4 colunms. The 1st will be the row number, the 3rd will be your list of extensions. It will look like this:

1 transmit "ch stat 8675309 ^M"

By using the concatonate formula in excel in the 6th column, it will mesh it all together into [transmit "ch stat 8675309^M"] Now copy that 6th cell and hit "paste special" and paste as VALUES.


Sort the whole mess by the 1st column, then copy the whole mess into procom.
