2. If the modem will only dial outside the system, set Automatic Line
Selection for extension X to select outside lines first. If you also use the
modem for calls within the system, set Automatic Line Selection to select
intercom first, and include a 9 or a pool access code and a couple of
pauses in the modem’s dialing sequence for outside calls.
3. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools assigned to extension X to No
Ring.
4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
5. Make sure extension Y is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night
Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
6. Set the auto answer feature of the modem to Off.
Send and Receive Modem
If you need to place and receive calls with the modem, use the setup shown in
Figure 4-10. This setup makes line A the primary modem line, but keeps the line
available for users at other extensions when all other lines are busy.
NOTE:
To receive information, modems rely on an incoming signal to ring. Modems
only work on Tip Ring ports, which are the bottom two ports of the
PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor or 362EC expansion module. Modems
that are used for sending only may be used at any port.
To Use:
Calls on the modem line (line A) ring only at extension X. Also, line A is the
last
line selected by other extensions, so the modem line is unavailable for the modem
only when all other lines in the system are being used
.
