Multiple Station Button Changes

[jrichert]

I need to change one button on something close to 300 Callmasters. I am running a G3R V8.2, I need to change the 1-st Column button 5: to mct-act. Any Ideas on doing this as a mass change would be helpful.

Thanks
J

Hi jrchert,

What i suggest is to change the programming of the callmasters buttons to a speed-dial. To either a system speed dial list or group list. At the begginning will be hard and will have to work a lot. But at the end you will only have to change the speed dial list for the feature code or a number that you need to dial with the button. This way you only will have one place to change it instead of 300.

I hope this helps!

If all of the other button assignments are the same, then you could set up and use a station template. It's a bit of work, too, but not as bad as changing 300+ stations.

Do you have a copy of ASA or DSA? I believe you can export the sets into an excel spreadsheet, modify the entries & then re-import it. I've never tried it. I do have a powerpoint presentation on how to get the info into excel, Maybe I'll try it on a switch & see if will work. I don't have time this afternoon, but probably tomorrow.

beddows,

I have tried the import/export, but the buttons do not appear to be objects like everything else. If this were the case I would be using the find & replace functionality. I will be looking at the template solution.
