Authorization Codes*
To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 20.
This feature is useful at companies where there
are telephones in public areas that are restricted
from making some calls.
If your system manager has given you an
authorization code, you can pick up someone
else’s telephone, enter your authorization code,
and make an outside call with your own calling
privileges. You must activate the feature and enter
your code for each call you make, even when you
are adding people to a conference. It is not
necessary to use your authorization code for
inside calls. Using an authorization code does
not affect the button assignments on your own
phone or the phone where you enter the code.
Security Alert
Compromise of authorization codes
could lead to toll fraud or unauthorized
charges.
Memorize your authorization code, and do not
share it with anyone.
The way you activate the Authorization Code
feature depends upon the type of telephone you
are using to make the call.
