The following lines/trunks cannot be assigned to a button on a telephone:
■ Lines/trunks used for Music On Hold
■ Lines/trunks used for maintenance alarms
NOTE:NOTE:NOTE:
If you use equipment that rebroadcasts music or other copyrighted
materials, you may be required to obtain a copyright license from and pay
license fees to a third party (such as the American Society of Composers,
Artists, and Producers or Broadcast Music Incorporated). Magic on Hold
requires no such license and can be purchased from Lucent Technologies.
Pool buttons cannot be assigned to or removed from extensions unless the pool
has trunks assigned. If all trunks are to be removed from a pool, all Pool button
assignments must first be removed from extensions. Another way of handling this
situation is to program another trunk into the pool and then remove the Pool
button assignments from the extensions.
■ Hybrid/PBX only. Individual lines/trunks assigned to a pool can be
assigned to a button only on a DLC operator position. If one of the lines/
trunks in a pool is assigned to a button on a non-DLC telephone, the result
is a Pool button assignment.
■ Key only. The system assigns the first eight line numbers to buttons on
multiline telephones whether or not an outside line is physically connected.
If a line is not connected, the button assignment must be removed so the
user can assign a feature to the button.
■ For the MDC 9000 and MLC 5 cordless multiline telephones and the MDW
9000 wireless multiline telephone, the system assigns the first eight lines
connected to the control unit even though the telephone has fewer than
eight buttons available. Remove the extra lines in system programming so
that the appropriate number of lines are assigned to buttons on these
telephones.
Lines and trunks are assigned to buttons in the order in which you press each line
button on the system programming console or keyboard. Existing line assign-
ments can be rearranged by removing all current assignments and then pressing
the line buttons on the console or keyboard in the order in which they should
appear on the buttons. For information on the order of the programmed buttons,
refer to the button numbers on the applicable planning form for each telephone.
If you want to reserve some blank buttons for features between line buttons, you
must assign a line as a placeholder for each blank button. After all lines are
assigned, remove the lines used as placeholders for the buttons reserved for
features.
