10.5 Assigning Extensions to Tenant Groups
You can completely isolate extension functions depending on how you assign the tenant groups; i.e., you can pro-
hibit calling from one tenant group to another. You do not have to isolate extensions to be able to isolate system
resources, however. (See Section 5.6,
Setting the CO Line Type , Section 5.9, Assigning Ring Type for the CO Line ,
and Section 5.10, Setting the Answer Position for Day and Evening for details on how to isolate system resources
without invoking full isolated tenant operations).
Tenant grouping allows you to independently allocate resource directory numbers. The directory numbers for
system resources then interact only with the resources within the tenant group. For example, you designate
attendant extensions for each tenant group; these attendant extensions act independently for the assigned tenant
group. When a caller dials 0 to reach the attendant, the system automatically calls the attendant extension you des-
ignated for that group (attendant extension 2 for tenant group 2, etc.).
The following conditions apply when setting up tenant groups.
• You can set up a maximum of three tenant groups in the DX-80 system.
• Extension directory numbers remain unique to system ports and are not duplicated for each tenant group
(although extension dialing may be restricted across tenant group barriers).
• When tenant calling is restricted from one tenant group to another tenant group, intercom calls, call transfers,
and recall operations will not operate across these designations. Note : If you want intercom calls, call
transfers, and recall operations to work across tenant group barriers, do not set up separate tenant groups.
Other features whose programming may affect your assignment of tenant groups to extensions include the fol-
lowing.
• CO Line - Tenant Group
• Call Handling - Tenant Group
10.5.1 PROGRAMMING USING THE DET
Note: chg , bksp , save , one , always , del , and ack are interactive LCD button operations. Use the three buttons
below the LCD display to actuate the associated operation.
1. Enter Database Administration using the feature code Feature # * and then enter the DB Admin password .
2. Press show . The system displays the DB Item Select screen.
3. Enter 01-101~156-02 and press save . This advances you to the Tenant Group selection for the extension
you specified.
4. Press chg until the tenant group you want to use for this extension displays. Valid options are tenant groups
1, 2, or 3. The default is 1. If your system is not divided into tenant groups, use group 1.
5. Press the Hold button to return to the previous menu level,
Or, press the Volume button (up or down) to return to the DB Item Selection screen,
Or, exit programming.
10.5.2 PROGRAMMING USING PC-DBA
1. Select Programming from the PC-DBA menu and press Enter . The system displays the Database Program-
ming menu.
