Pool Extension Assignment
(#314)—Release 2.0 or Later
Description
This feature applies only to pooled extensions in Hybrid mode.
This System Programming procedure identifies the pools that are assigned to
buttons at a pooled extension. The system uses two buttons to represent the main
pool (880) and one for each auxiliary pool (881, 882, 883). Up to five pool buttons
can be assigned per extension.

You should use Pool Line Assignment (#207) prior to this procedure to
assign lines to or remove lines from pools.
You can use Line Assignment (#301) to assign individual outside lines to
buttons on a pooled extension.
Users must have access to an outside line or pool in order to dial numbers
on the Emergency Phone Number List (#406).
You can use Automatic Line Selection to change the order in which the
system selects lines or pools when the user at that extension lifts the
handset or presses
S to make a call. Note that auxiliary pools (881, 882,
and 883) are not automatically added to an extension’s Automatic Line
Selection.
You can use Line Ringing to identify when each pool and individual line
assigned to an extension should start ringing (the factory setting for pools
is No Ring and for lines is Immediate Ring).
If you want to prevent a user at an extension from accessing all the lines in
a pool, you must restrict the extension using Pool Access Restriction
(#315).
If you want to prevent a user at an extension from accessing an individual
line, you must use Line Access Restriction (#302).
Remove pools from Hotline (#603) and Doorphone (#604/#605)
extensions, to prevent calls from being made or received on them.
You can use Line Access Mode (#313) to change an extension from a
pooled extension to a key extension.
When using Unique Line Ringing (#209), incoming calls that ring at a pool
button will ring with the pattern assigned to that line. Lines within a pool
may be assigned individual ring patterns.
