Line/trunk keys
Line keys can be configured on the programmable function keys on a Open-
Scape Desk Phone CP200/CP205. Each key that is assigned the function "line"
is handled as a line. This means up to four lines can be configured.
A distinction is made between primary and secondary lines. Each of these line
types can be used on a private or shared basis
Line keys are configured by your administrator.
The following diagram shows how telephones with multiple line keys are con-
nected in a team.
3234 is Mr. Matthews' phone number, 3235 is Mr. Miller's phone number and
3236 is Mr. Saddler's phone number. On all three phones, calls can be made via
all three lines. The line for your own extension number is always the primary line
however.
Primary line
All multi-line telephones have a primary line. This line can be reached in the usu-
al manner via your public phone number. Incoming calls to your number are sig-
naled on this line.
Secondary line
The secondary line on your phone is used as a primary line by another subscrib-
er in the system. Your main line can be configured at the same time as a sec-
ondary line on another phone in the system.
To avoid conflict between the individual multi-line phones, the functions
"Do not disturb" and "Call forwarding" can only be used for the primary
line.
