Launching the Attendant Console Software
for the First Time
By default, the installation process created a desktop icon and start menu item. Perform the following
to launch the software.
Double click on the desktop icon to open the Login page. You should see a message on the page stating
that it’s obtaining application user devices (Figure 3). If you do not see this message (may have been too
quick) and are not able to sign in, there was an issue with:
• The TSP client, or
• A prerequisite install, or
• An incorrect application user configuration
If there was an authentication issue, this will display on the Login page.

After the startup process finishes, the Login page displays the word “Extension,” which indicates that
you need to enter an operator’s phone number (Figure 4).
Figure 4. Login page prompting for operator’s extension
As you begin to enter valid extensions (phones that the application user has control over), you will see
search results (Figure 5). Type in as much of the extension that is needed to find a match, then if
prompted, select the operator’s desk phone.
NOTE: If the operator’s extension is shared among devices, there will be a list of devices presented to
choose from (Figure 6).

Once the operator is logged in, the console will perform a direct synchronization with the contacts
available in the CUCM directory (Figure 7).

Directories
Attendant Console Standard can display one or more directories containing contact information. The
Corporate directory always displays. It is copied from one or more of the following sources:
• CUCM
• A Comma Separated Variable (CSV) file. CSV file names have the .csv extension.
CUCM is the default source of your corporate directory. Attendant Console Standard automatically
synchronizes with the CUCM directory when an operator logs in.
Directory Groups
Attendant Console Standard supports directory groups that allow you to quickly view and connect to
contacts that are not in your corporate directory. These directory groups can contain any combination
of the following:
• Imported contacts that can be obtained from either CSV files or Extensible Markup Language (XML)
files.
• Contacts you entered yourself
As well as importing contacts into directory groups, you can also export (copy) directory groups to CSV
files, so they can be used by other attendants or in other applications.
Directory Synchronization
The process of copying contacts from your source directories into Attendant Console Standard is known
as synchronization. When synchronization occurs, the contacts from both the CUCM and the CSV file (if
you specify one) are copied into Attendant Console Standard. The actual data that is displayed in your
corporate directory depends not only on what is in your sources but also on any directory filters,
directory field mappings, or Busy Lamp Fields (BLF) rules you have configured. These are described in
the paragraphs below.
Directory synchronization takes place at regular intervals that you define; and you can configure
Attendant Console Standard to synchronize with the source directory when you login (the default
setting).
Directory Filtering
A directory filter consists of a set of rules that are applied during synchronization to ensure that only
certain contacts are copied to the corporate directory. Each directory rule can compare one of the
following contact details to a text string:
• Department
• Telephone
• Location
©2015 AT&T Intellectual Property. All rights reserved. AT&T and Globe logo are registered trademarks of AT&T Intellectual Property.
All other marks are the property of their respective owners. 21
A rule makes the comparison according to one of the following conditions:
• Begins with
• Contains
• Is exactly
• Ends with
Directory Field Mappings
Directory field mappings define which contact data fields (source fields) to import from CUCM or a CSV
file and which destination fields in the directory to populate with data. You can use different directory
field mappings for CUCM and a CSV file. This can provide you with the flexibility to, for example, import
sales contacts from CUCM and marketing contacts from a CSV file.
When you install Attendant Console Standard, default directory field mappings are defined for you. You
can change these mappings or define your own.
BLF (Busy Lamp Field) Rules
BLF rules are applied during synchronization to convert directory numbers to a different format by
searching for and replacing specific number prefixes. You can define sets of multiple rules to be applied
during synchronization. Different rules can be defined for synchronizing from CUCM or CSV files.
NOTE:
• If using BLF rules, the converted numbers must match the directory numbers monitored in TAPI,
otherwise, the line state will not be displayed in the directories.
• Numbers converted by BLF rules are used by Attendant Console Standard when it dials. If you
set up BLF rules, you also need to set up translations in CUCM to convert the numbers in
Attendant Console Standard back to the originals, so that you can call those numbers.
Contact Notes
You can add notes to any contact record in the Corporate directory, the search results, or any directory
group. The notes are text containing additional information about the contact. Notes are available
whenever you login. If you delete a contact, the notes for that contact are also deleted. If you export
contacts, their notes are also exported. If you import a contact with notes, its notes are available to
you.

Additional Configuration Options
The following are some additional configuration options:
• Preventing access to the Options tabs
• Connecting to a different Presence server
• Connecting to a different CUCM
• Setting operator voicemail prefix
• Configuring alerts
• Keyboard shortcuts.

Use Example – Hunt Groups
Logging into Hunt Groups
A hunt group is a group of extensions configured so that an unanswered call to any extension is
forwarded to one of the other lines in the group. CUCM supports hunt groups, and Attendant Console
Standard enables you to sign in using a device that is part of one or more hunt groups, so that calls to
the groups can be received through your operator phone. If you are logged out from any hunt groups
you will not receive any calls through the groups (calls made to a pilot number). If you are not logged in
to the hunt groups of which your extension is part, you can either log into them when you sign into the
application (Figure 10), or you can click the extension number at the top right of the interface, and then
select Log in to hunt groups from the drop-down menu (Figure 11).

Figure 11. Logging into hunt group using the drop-down menu
Logging out of Hunt Groups
To log out do either of the following:
• Click the extension number at the top right of the interface, and then select Log out of hunt groups
from the drop-down menu (Figure 12)
• Use the Ctrl+I keyboard shortcut
Also, when you log out of the attendant console, you will be prompted to log out of any hunt groups you
are logged into (Figure 13). While you are logging out you cannot take calls, but current calls will
continue unaffected. You will be logged out at the end of the current call.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Tools
Logs
Attendant Console Standard keeps a log of all events that occur within the application. This information
can be used to gauge the application’s configuration and performance, and can help troubleshoot
errors. You can control which application subsystems are monitored, which events are logged, and the
size and number of the log files.
To configure logging, do the following:
1. In the main menu, choose File > Options. The Options window appears.
2. Select the Logging tab.
3. Set the following as required (see Figure 14):
a. The default logging location is:
\Users\<windows_user_name>\AppData\Roaming\CUACSLogging
b. Enter the Number of Files, which is the maximum number of log files to store before you re-use
(overwrite) the first one.
c. Enter the Maximum File Size (in MBs). When the file becomes this size it is closed and a new
log file is opened.
d. Select the Logging Level. This is the default amount of detail that will be written into the log
file.
e. Detail decreases in the following order:
i. DEBUG
ii. INFO
iii. WARN
iv. ERROR
v. FATAL
f. If you choose Custom, you can set the logging level for all the specific modules.
