Maintaining security
To maintain the security of your system, the following
practices are recommended:
• Warn anyone to whom you give the remote access number,
to keep it confidential.
• Change Class of Service passwords often.
• Warn anyone to whom you give a Class of Service
password, to remember it and not to write it down.
• Remove the Class of Service password of anyone who
leaves your company.
Accessing Norstar remotely over the public network
1. Dial the Norstar system remote access number.
2. When you hear a stuttered dial tone, enter your COS
password.
3. Wait for the system dial tone.
To use the system remotely, you must use a telephone with
tone dialing to call the system.
Remote access is possible only on lines that your installer or
customer service representative programs to auto-answer
calls.
To use features on a remote Norstar system, press
¥
followed
by the feature code. Even if you are calling from a Norstar
system, press
¥ instead of ².
In certain situations, you may experience lower volume levels
when using Norstar remotely.
