Set up your system by programming one extension for each type of telephone in the system. Then
use Copy Settings (#399) to program other telephones of the same type. For example, you can
program one PARTNER-18D telephone and then copy its settings to any other extensions that
have PARTNER-18D or PARTNER-18 telephones. See
“Copy Settings (#399)” on page 4-17 for
more information.

PBX or Centrex Services
3
Your system may work behind a PBX or Centrex system:
■
PBX services are provided by a private telephone switch.
■
Centrex services are provided by your local telephone company from a Central Office (CO)
outside your premises. These services include the Centrex lines connected to your control unit
modules and some set of features—such as hold, conference, or transfer—available on those
lines. Centrex services may be offered in your area under a different name. For specific
Centrex features to be available to you, your company must subscribe to those features. For
specific information about using Centrex features, see the Centrex documentation provided by
your local telephone company.
Consider the following when setting up your system to work effectively behind a PBX or Centrex
system:
■
Recall setting
■
Dialing restrictions
■
Speed Dial and Auto Dial numbers
Recall Setting
3
Set the Recall Timer Duration (#107) to match the setting used by your PBX or Centrex system
(usually 800 msec, or “32”). This setting affects the length of a Recall signal sent by the control unit
to access PBX or Centrex services.
