Prime Line Selection
• Description
Prime Line Selection allows an extension user to place or answer a call over a specific
trunk by just lifting the handset. The user does not have to first press keys or dial
codes. This simplifies handling calls on a frequently used trunk.
A Prime Line is effectively a single exchange line placed into its own trunk group for
outgoing access and its own ring group for incoming ringing.
Prime Line Selection has the following two modes of operation:
•
Outgoing Prime Line Preference
Lifting the handset seizes the Prime Line. Outgoing Prime Line Preference
would help a telemarketer who always needs a free line to call prospective
clients. The telemarketer just lifts the handset and the Prime Line is always
available. (Outgoing Prime Line Preference may be affected by Incoming
Prime Line Preference.)
•
Incoming Prime Line Preference
When the Prime Line rings the extension, lifting the handset answers the
call. Incoming Prime Line Preference could benefit the Service Department
dispatcher who must quickly answer customer’s service calls and then dis-
patch repair technicians. The dispatcher would have the assurance than
whenever a customer calls in, the dispatcher just lifts the handset get their
call. (Incoming Prime Line Preference can optionally seize an idle line
appearance.)
Conditions

Default Setting
