Answer
mode Manual
Auto
Define whether a trunk is manual or automatic answer.
Auto answer mode allows the trunk to be a shared resource by the system
telephones.
For auto answer trunks being used to allow remote call-in from system users, the
trunk can be configured to answer with a straight dial tone, if DISA has not been
enabled. It can also be configured to answer with a stuttered dial tone if DISA is
enabled and the caller is expected to enter a COS password. The COS password
defines which system features the caller is permitted to access.
Manual answer trunks are assigned to one or more telephones. The assigned
telephones exclusively own the line.
Answer with
DISA Y or N Define whether the system prompts a caller for a six-digit class of service (COS)
password.
This setting appears for T1 loop start and T1 E&M lines that have
auto-answer mode. Set this option to No for T1 E&M lines on a private network that
have auto-answer mode.
Use auxiliary
ringer Y or N Turn the auxiliary ringer on or off for all telephones using this line.
When programmed on a line, the auxiliary ringer will ring every time a call is
received.
Note: When programmed only on a telephone, no ring occurs for a transferred call.
An auxiliary ringer can also be programmed in Services to ring for a line placed into
a scheduled Ringing service. Refer to
“Configuring ringing service” on page 496
Full autohold Y or N Enables or disables Full autohold.
When enabled, if a caller selects an idle line but does not dial any digits, that line is
automatically placed on hold if you then select another line.
The default setting should be changed only if Full autohold is required for a specific
application.
WARNING: Enable modules
If you disabled any trunk media bay modules prior to performing programming, enable them now to
ensure your system will function properly.
