6.3 - Extension Lines: Setting the dialled code

 

In systems where an exchange digit is 
used to get an extension line, the  
dialed digit(s) must be entered. This 
may be a simple digit, for example, ‘9’ 
or a more complicated code. 
 
Enter the digit using the  
numeric keypad. Sometimes there 
must a pause or wait period after the 
code has been entered to allow the 
telephone system to receive the dialing tone from the outside line. You 
can enter such a pause use the ‘P/W’ key. 

If you make a mistake, use the CE (bottom right key) to 
successively correct the last entries. 

 
That is all the information that is 
needed. You will be shown the  
confirmation screen (here) and  
PostBase will attempt to make a  
connection.

 

If all goes well, PostBase will now continue with the remainder of its  
configuration… 
 

If it can’t connect, the wizard will return to its starting point. In this case, you should 
first check the connections, then the settings you have entered. 

 
 
PLEASE NOTE, YOU WILL NEED TO ENTER YOUR MACHINE SPECIFIC 

R-PIN 

NUMBER INTO THE MACHINE WHEN PROMPTED, THIS CAN BE FOUND IN 
YOUR FP WELCOME PACK.
