Greetings,
I tried to move two 1416's with BLF's direct 1 for 1 swap. I unplugged each patch cord at the frame and moved them the one set came up as it should and the other just blinked and never came up. I moved them back as they were and both came up the way they had been. I then moved the extensions in Manager and did a merge this was on Friday and they never moved. The one thing I noticed in Manager one of the extensions had a funky red icon next to it I had never seen before. What is that? I have seen that merge doesn't really work for this so I guess I need to do a reboot to make it happen?
TIA,
John 807

The red icon next to the user indicates that there is a Login code entered under Telephony > Supervisor Settings. This makes the user a HotDesk (The red icon, it is a desk. It is red because it is HOT! It is a HOT DESK!)
Anyway, here's how you move digital extensions on an IP Office through Manager. Leave the Users as is. Change the Base Extension Number for each port under Extensions. Merge. The phones won't look like anything happened, but if you look in System Status, you will see the Extension Number has changed, but not the Current User Number.
You can reboot, and the extensions will come back in the correct spots. If you can't reboot, go to EACH phone, and dial *36, the Log Out code. When you do the first one, it will show the correct Extension number, but No User or Not Logged In. Now go to the 2nd phone and dial *36, it will release the current user, which will pop back up on the 1st phone, and the 2nd phone will come back with the new, correct user.

Thanks Tommy. I appreciate it. All the tutorials I saw said reboot after changing the extension. Why did I have trouble just flipping the cross though? That's a question perplexing me.

You should have no trouble moving cross connects, or patch cords, The first one worked , the second one flashed . Probable cable or x connect problem.
