Initial System Setup
After the control unit is installed, you set up the system using a combination of
system
and
telephone programming procedures. In this guide, System
Programming procedures are identified by a code (# and three digits); Telephone
Programming procedures are identified by the feature name only.
Use the
System Planner
as a guide when programming. The following sections
provide an
overview
of the procedures you use for initial system setup. Chapter 5
explains how to use the specific procedures. Other programming procedures are
optional, but are strongly recommended to make the most of your investment.
(See ‘‘System Programming Options’’ on page 2-10 and ‘‘Telephone
Programming Options’’ on page 2-22 for details.)
Setting the System Clock
After supplying power to the control unit, use the following procedures:
■ System Date (#101) to set the month and day.
■ System Day (#102) to set the day of the week.
■ System Time (#103) to set the hour and minutes.
Assigning Lines
Key Extensions
Use the procedures described in this section to assign individual lines to pooled
extensions or assign lines to key extensions. (In Key mode, all extensions are Key
extensions; in Hybrid mode, extension 10 and any extensions set to Key using
Line Access Mode (#313) are key extensions.)
For initial setup
only
, use Number of Lines (#104) to specify the number of lines
that will be assigned to all system extensions. Then use the following procedures
as needed:
■ Dial Mode (#201) to identify any rotary lines (the default for all lines is
“touch-tone”).
■ Line Assignment (#301) to assign lines to specific extensions (if the line
was not assigned using the Number of Lines procedure), to remove lines
from some extensions, or to change the button used to pick up a line at a
specific extension.
■ Line Access Restriction (#302) to prevent an extension from receiving
and/or
making outside calls on specific lines.
