Testing DID Trunks
To test DID trunks, follow the steps below:
!Have someone at the central office check all DID trunks, or have
someone call from the outside to check each DID trunk.
!When the first trunk rings, answer it.
!Instruct the caller to put the call on hold or put down the handset
while making the next call.
!When the next trunk rings, put the previous call on hold and repeat
this procedure until all eight DID trunks have been connected
successfully.
!When all trunks are connected with good communication,
disconnect each call and have the caller do the same.

are connected and properly programmed. Have someone at the far end
ready to place and receive calls throughout the testing procedures listed

■ Automatic-start two-way (both incoming and outgoing)
