6-18 CO Line Configuration
CO Line Type Assignment
A CO Line Type is selected to identify specific CO lines. Type CO designates a typical CO
line connection. Type PBX designates a CO line position that is connected to a PBX line
(an extension off of another telephone system). This designation will cause system
software to search the PBX code entry of digits dialed on a line marked PBX so that toll
restriction may be applied following the PBX code. In addition, Last Number Redial, Auto
Busy Redial and the Saved Dialed Number features will reference the programmed PBX
code to insert a Pause between the PBX code and the remaining dialed digits.
A third CO Line Type OPN is made available so that the programmer can mark CO line
positions equipped in the system but not connected to any telephone company CO line
facility. This instructs the system software to bypass this CO line for any automatic or
pooled (group) access of CO lines.
Default
DHS/DHS-E CO Line Type Assignment is set for CO, and can be changed to type PBX/OPN/
CO.
Loud Bell Control
When set to Y the Loud Bell Contact will operate ring cadenced closure while this CO line
is ringing. The ring cadence of the Loud Bell contact follows the Ring Scheme
programmed in Resource.
Default
The DHS/DHS-E Loud Bell Contact is set to Y (YES), and can be toggled from Y/N.

Refer to “Ring Scheme” in the Resource Configuration section of this Chapter.
CO Line Group Assignment
There are four CO line group assignments that may be assigned to CO lines. Grouping is
usually done to segment CO lines into group types (i.e., CO, PBX, WATS, FX, etc.). CO line
grouping allows system users to dial access to a particular CO line type by group access
codes.
When CO line groups are accessed the higher number idle CO line is selected as the first
choice. For example, if CO lines (4-6) are in the group dialed for access the group is
searched for an idle CO line from CO line 6, then CO line 5, etc.
Default
The DHS/DHS-E CO Line Group Assignment is Group 1, and the available Group range is
from 1-4.
