Hello all,

I was puttering around in the programming of our 9751 the other day and came across a feature called padtrace. When I list it, it returns that no PADs or cards are being traced. There is no mention of this feature in the install manual, the cnfg manual, or the sysadmin manual. Anybody know what it is and how to use it? Dare I hope there is a trace feature code that can be keyed into a set to then find the PAD for that set? My predecessor had a tendency to square entire departments instead of teaching people how to transfer, so finding the equipment for a particular phone can be tedious. Thanks in advance!

The List Padtrace gives you what PADS are being traced from the command Activate Padtrace, here is a printout of the Activate Padtrace

as you can see it's more of a diagnostic tool

ahh ok. that's about what I figured, but a boy can hope

Thanks!
