Extensions 116 to 125 are used for phantom mailboxes. Dialing any of these extensions
immediately transfers you to the corresponding mailbox.
Note that the first port is “port 00”; the second one is “port 01”; etc. The last port in
TeleCraft TC-308 is “port 07” while the last port in TeleCraft TC-616 is “port 15”. You
cannot change port numbers.
The extension assignment is very simple. Port 00 is extension 100; port 01 is extension
101; and so on. See “Hands Free” below for hands free extension numbers.
Hands free
When the Operator Console is connected you can converse with anyone in the office
without them having to use the telephone receiver.
The console connected to extension 100 is activated by dialing *100. Similarly, the
console connected to extension 101 is activated by dialing *101 and so on. TeleCraft
sends an alert signal to the console prior to activating it in order to notify the recipient that
a “hands free” call in coming in. The
VOLUME
lever must be
HIGH
to hear the signal. All
hands free conversations are limited in time. Note that when you are on the phone
nobody can activate your Operator Console.

Your 198 announcements engage all of the consoles connected to non-busy telephones.
