AUTOMATIC LINE
SELECTION SEQUENCE
Review the responsibilities of the people in your business and the special
characteristics of your outside lines. Then decide which, if any, should have
customized line assignments. (Your System Configuration Form shows the
telephone number and line type for each of your outside telephone lines.)
In the "Intercom No." column . . .
Find the intercom numbers for the people for whom you want customized
line assignments.
Check the appropriate boxes to the right of the intercom numbers to
indicate which lines you want to assign to each person.
You can keep the original line assignments on the voice terminals of those
people who need access to every outside line in the system.
In the "Intercom No." column . . .
Find the intercom numbers for the people who should retain the original
line assignments.
Check the appropriate boxes to the right of the intercom numbers to
indicate that every line will appear at each of those voice terminals.
When you lift the voice terminal handset to make an outside call, the system
automatically scans the outside telephone lines in the order in which they
appear on your voice terminal's line buttons until it finds a free line for your
call. For example, if your voice terminal has the original line assignments, the
system gives you Line A, if it's free, when you lift the handset. If Line A is
busy, the system tries Line B, and so on in alphabetical order until it finds a
free line for your call. Likewise, if your voice terminal has customized line
assignments, the system will search for a free line following the customized
sequence.
In most cases, you probably want a voice terminal's automatic line selection
sequence to be the same as the sequence in which the lines appear on the
voice terminal's line buttons. If, however, you want a special automatic line
selection sequence for a voice terminal, you can program that sequence when
you administer the system's outside lines.
NOTE: A special automatic line selection sequence for a voice terminal
can contain any or all of the lines that appear on the voice terminal's
line buttons.
