Setting up CAP stations 447
Programming Operations Guide
You can configure a total of 12 CAP stations on a Business Communications Manager using the
CAP/KIM assignment setting. Modules that have been configured like this will be referred to as
eCAPs and eKIMs.
Note: If you do not use CAP/KIM assignment to designate a 7316E +KIM as a CAP station,
there is no set limit to the number of these combinations that you can have on your system,
resources permitting. However, you cannot assign lines or Hunt group indicators to the CAP or
KIM modules unless the CAP stations have been assigned under
CAP/KIM assignment .
If the 7316E + KIM is not configured under CAP/KIM assignment, the KIM module is known as
an OKIM. This combination allows you to add additional direct dial keys or features to a 7316E.
You can add up to nine KIM modules to a 7316E if they remain as OKIMs.
Use CAP stations to:
• monitor the busy/not busy and Do not disturb status of system telephones
• answer external calls on up to 120 lines on a CAP and 112 lines on a KIM, and extend calls to
other Business Communications Manager telephones
• send up to 30 messages to other Business Communications Manager telephones
• provide extra memory buttons for the 7316E telephones
