Attribute Value Description
Name <maximum of seven
alphanumeric characters> Identify the line in a way that is meaningful to your system, such as
by the type of line and line pool or the DN it is attached to in the
case of target line
s .
Control set DN <control telephone DN>
Default: 221 (default Start DN)
Enter a telephone DN for a telephone that you want to use to turn
service off or on for other telephones using this line.
The control telephone must have the line assigned, or must be
assigned to the line pool the line is in. Refer to
“Assigning line pool
access” on page 414
Tips: External lines and telephones must be programmed to use one of the Scheduled Services:
Ringing, Restriction, and Routing Services.
For maximum flexibility, Nortel Networks recommends that you create two different control
telephones, one for the lines and one for the telephones.
You can turn on a service manually or automatically for all external lines from an assigned control
telephone. However, you cannot combine schedules. A service can only be active as normal
service or one of the six schedules at any one time. Several schedules can be active at one time,
but they must use different services.
