accessible via the Internet. This provides a more seamless
programmable experience that we call ESI Intelitouch™
.
• The Web programming tool used with ESI’s IP Server 900
or a third-party IP-based PBX, accessible from anywhere on
your organization’s local area network (LAN).
Each method is supported by the Internet Explorer, Chrome,
Firefox, and Safari Web browsers.
Connecting to the user dashboard
Remember, this is available only if your phone is connected
to ESI Cloud Services.
1. In your Web browser, open a new window or tab.
2. Go to my.esihs.net/portal in the window or tab you
opened in the previous step.
3. Enter your USERNAME and PASSWORD provided by
your System Administrator.
4. To access the user dashboard, click LOG IN.
Once inside the user dashboard, you can (and should)
change the PASSWORD attribute in programming. (The
USERNAME attribute is fixed.)
Connecting to the Web programming tool
1. Connect your phone to your organization’s LAN.
2. Obtain the phone’s IP address from either the phone
itself or your System Administrator.
Here’s how to obtain the IP address from the phone:
a. When your phone is idle (you’ll see the date and time
in the top row of the display), press MENU/EXIT.
b. Scroll to and select System.
c. Scroll to and select Network.
d. Scroll to LAN IP Address. This will display the
phone’s IP address.
3. Open a new window or tab in your Web browser.
4. In the Web browser’s address bar, type:
http://<IP address>:8000
. . . where <IP address> is the phone’s IP address that
you obtained in step 2. Then, press Enter on your
PC’s keyboard.
The browser will take you to your phone’s login page.
The default login information is:
User name — user
Password — 1234
You can (and should) change the user name and
password in programming.
