Initial System Programming
Assigning Lines
3-15
For extensions with tip/ring telephones, set Automatic Line Selection to intercom first. This
enables tip/ring telephones to access system features, including intercom calling. When users
lift the handsets on tip/ring telephones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access an outside line,
they must dial
9
.
Pooled Extensions (Release 2.0 or later)
3
If your system will be configured for Hybrid mode, use the features described in this section to
change the assignment of lines in pools, to assign auxiliary pools to pooled extensions, or to
remove the main pool from pooled extensions. (See
“Mode of Operation (#198)” on page 4-50 to
change the mode of operation of the system.) If a pooled extension also has an individual line, see
“Key Extensions” on page 3-14 to assign that individual line.
After you program the Number of Lines to assign lines to the main pool, use the following
features as needed:
■
Dial Mode (#201) to identify any rotary lines (the default for all lines is “touch-tone”).
■
Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove lines from the main pool and assign lines to auxiliary
pools.
■
Line Access Mode (#313) to change a specific extension’s operation from Pooled to Key.
Refer to
“Key Extensions” to assign lines to those extensions.
■
Pool Extension Assignment (#314) to remove the main pool, assign auxiliary pools, or
change the location of the button used to select an auxiliary pool at specific extensions. (The
location of the two main pool buttons cannot be changed.)
■
Pool Access Restriction (#315) to prevent an extension from receiving and/or making
outside calls on all lines in specific pools.
■
Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when a line or pool starts
ringing at each extension that has the line or pool. Lines are factory-set to Immediate Ring and
pools are factory-set to No Ring.
■
Automatic Line Selection (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify the order in
which the system selects an available line or pool when a user at the extension lifts the
handset or presses
S
to make a call.
For extensions with tip/ring telephones, set Automatic Line Selection to intercom first. This
enables tip/ring telephones to access equipment features, including intercom calling. When
users lift the handsets on tip/ring telephones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access a pool,
they can dial the pool access code 880, 881, 882, or 883 or dial 9 to access the first available
line or pool in the sequence.
