Toshiba VP 300, Installation Instructions Manual

Page: 51 / 614

•
Smaller companies having a single console and willing to direct all trunks to the VP 300.
•
Companies using the VP 300 only to answer after hours and on weekends.
Since the console cannot be used, callers who are toll restricted cannot get an outside line from the
operator.
■
Arrange for Trunks to Call Divert to the VP 300 Ports
When only some trunks are to be answered by the VP 300 (ruling out Console Night Mode), these
trunks can be removed from the PBX and terminated on call diverters that are connected to PBX
extensions. See Figure 2-5. These call diverters are programmed to call the VP 300 hunt group. The
call diverter answers the trunk and calls (through the PBX) the VP 300 hunt group number. The
appropriate number of VP 300 ports, as well as one additional extension per trunk to be diverted to the
VP 300, are required.
The call diverter that operates satisfactorily in this situation is the BUSCOM 2008-RD manufactured
by MetroTel. Because this diverter ordinarily allows remote turn-off by pressing a
#
key, it requires a
modification. When ordering from MetroTel, (408/988-5200) specify the “OPCOM/VMX inhibit
remote turn-off modification.”
