Programmable Keys (PKs)
Programmable
keys
are
feature
keys
that
can
be
assigned
an
array
of
functions
but
cannot
be
assigned
the
call
function.
The
OBi
has
8
programmable
keys
that
can
be
used
for
speed
dials,
assigned
to
the
busy
lamp
field
(BLF)
as
well
as
functions
such
as
do
not
disturb
and
switching
between
tabs.
Figure
10
shows
the
programmable
keys
mapped
to
functions
listed
on
the
printed
insert.
Printed
inserts
can
be
created
online
using
the
OBi
Printed
Insert
Generator.

Figure 11: Three examples of possible layouts for the programmable keys (PKs).
The
image
on
the
left
of
figure
10
shows
a
combination
of
functions
mapped
to
the
PKs.
In
this
case,
the
Next
Tab
function
is
placed
at
PK1,
putting
it
at
the
top
of
the
PK
list
and
nearest
to
the
screen.
Placement
of
the
next
tab
function
on
PK1
may
be
preferable
particularly
on
the
OBi1032
if
all
VLKs
are
in
use.
With
this
approach
to
PK
functionality
we
see
the
primary
voice
services
listed
on
PK2
–
PK5,
with
PK5
mapped
to
a
cellular
(mobile/GSM)
phone
via
Bluetooth.
The
middle
image
of
figure
10
shows
a
Key
Phone
approach
to
the
mapping
of
the
programmable
keys,
where
all
voice
services
have
been
mapped
to
a
“Line
Monitor”
feature
key.
In
this
example,
SP1
through
SP6
are
presented
as
Line
1
–
6
on
PK1
through
PK6,
with
the
OBITALK
service
mapped
to
PK7
and
a
cell
phone
attached
via
Bluetooth
mapped
to
PK8.
In
this
case,
as
many
VLKs
as
required
could
be
assigned
as
unbound
call
keys
to
support
each
call,
giving
the
flexibility
of
having
multiple
simultaneous
calls
without
having
the
VLKs
bound
to
a
specific
voice
service.
It’s
important
to
note
that
in
this
example
it
would
be
important
to
ensure
one
VLK
per
tab
is
assigned
to
the
Next
Tab
function.
The
rightmost
image
of
figure
10
shows
eight
people
within
an
organization
and
their
current
call
availability
status
based
on
the
Busy
Lamp
Field
(BLF)
information.
In
this
image,
Kate,
Steven
and
Lucy
are
all
on
calls
with
all
others
available.
Side Car Keys (SCKs)
The Side Car Keys (SCKs) behave just as programmable keys, with 16 keys available per side car. Up to two side cars
can
be
connected
to
the
OBi,
for
a
maximum
of
32
SCKs.
Side
car
keys
allow
for
quick
call
direction
to
individuals
and
groups,
providing
instant
visual
feedback
of
status
as
indicated
via
the
LED
color
of
the
SCK.
In
a
busy
call
handling
environment,
SCKs
can
be
used
to
map
out
all
possible
call
functions
to
place
them
in
easy
reach
of,
and
to
personalize
the
experience
for
the
user.
