What sort of telephone system are the people in your system
accustomed to using?
Key System (a system, such as COM-KEY
®
or 1A2 Key, where
each line appears on a separate button at each telephone)
Non-Key System (a system, such as Horizon
®
, with many lines
available through a few System Access or Trunk Access buttons
or with basic telephones that each have their own line)
Do you want Automatic Route Selection (ARS)? ARS allows you
to program your system to automatically select the least expen-
sive and best available route for each outside call. You provide
the system with the information it needs to make economical
routing decisions. Otherwise, you can have individuals select the
appropriate type of line.
