Basic administration should take no more than a few minutes. All the
information you need should be on your System Configuration Form.
Locate the column headed "Dial Signals" on the System Configuration Form.
Is the box next to "Touch-Tone" checked? If so, you don't have to do anything
here. Your system is factory set to generate Touch-Tones when you dial an
outside call on any of your outside telephone lines.
But if the box next to "Rotary (Pulse)" is checked, you have to set the system
to generate rotary (pulse) signals when you dial outside calls. Set system for
pulse dialing as follows:
1
Enter Administration Mode.
The red lights go on the steady next to Administer and Restrict.
2 Dial *39
3
Touch Administer.
The console beeps twice.
Continue with administration, or leave administration mode.
If you ever have to reset the system for Touch-Tone dialing, follow the above
procedure, but dial *38 instead of *39 in step 2.
Locate the column headed "Long Distance Dialing" on the System
Configuration Form. Is the box next to "Toll Prefix" checked? If so, you
don't have to do anything here. Your system is factory set for this type of long-
distance dialing: toll prefix (1 or 0) + area code + telephone number.
But if the box next to "Area Code Only" has a check, you have to set the
system for this type of long-distance dialing (area code + telephone number) as
follows:
1
Enter administration mode.
The red lights go on steady next to Administer and Restrict.
2
Dial *37.
3
Touch Administer.
The console beeps twice.
4
Continue to administer the system, or leave administration mode.
If you ever have to reset your system to toll-prefix dialing, follow the above
procedure but dial *36 instead of *37 in step 2.
This simple procedure tells the control unit how many outside telephone lines
your system has. But it works only if your outside lines are plugged into an
unbroken sequence of line jacks on the control unit beginning with line jack
A. The System Configuration Form shows the number of lines you have and
the control unit line jack for each line under the heading "Outside Telephone
Lines."
