Assigning Lines
For initial setup only, use Number of Lines (#104) to specify the number of lines
that will be assigned to all system extensions. Then use the following
procedures as needed:
Dial Mode (#201) to identify any rotary lines (the default for all lines is
“touch-tone”).
Line Assignment (#301) to assign lines to specific extensions (if the line
was not assigned using the Number of Lines procedure), to remove lines
from some extensions, or to change the button used to pick up a line at a
specific extension.
Line Access Restriction (#302) to prevent an extension from receiving
and/or making outside calls on specific lines.
Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when a
line will start ringing at each extension that has the line. For additional
information about line ringing options, see “Programming a Receptionist’s
Extension” later in this chapter.
Automatic Line Selection (Centralized Telephone Programming) to
specify the order in which the system selects an available line (intercom
or outside), when a user at the extension lifts the handset or presses
S
to make a call without first selecting a specific line button.
For extensions with standard phones, set Automatic Line Selection
to intercom first. This enables standard phones to access system
features, including intercom calling. When users lift the handsets on
standard phones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access an outside
line, they must dial
9
.
Customizing Extensions
In addition to line assignments, the following procedures can be used to
customize an extension:
Display Language (#303) to specify the language (English, French, or
Spanish) for messages that appear on a system display phone.
Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) to prevent other extensions with
the same line from joining a call at the extension. This feature is also
useful for extensions connected to a modem, fax, or any device whose
function can be disrupted by someone trying to join it.
Forced Account Code Entry (#307) to prevent the extension from
making an outside call until a required account code is entered. You can
also use
Forced Account Code List (#409) to create a list of valid
account codes; this ensures that only authorized users with valid account
codes can make outside calls.
Call Waiting (#316) to identify standard phone extensions that can
receive the system (not the local telephone company) call-waiting tone for
a second incoming call when active on a call.
Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) to prevent the extension from making
certain types of outgoing calls (on all system lines).
