■ Automatic Line Selection (Centralized Telephone Programming) to
specify the order in which the system selects an available line or pool,
when a user at the extension lifts the handset or presses
S to make a
call.
For extensions with standard phones, set Automatic Line Selection to
intercom first. This enables standard phones to access equipment features,
including intercom calling. When users lift the handsets on standard
phones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access a pool, they can dial the
pool access code 880, 881, 882, or 883 or dial 9 to access the first
available line or pool in the sequence.
Customizing Extensions
In addition to line or pool assignments, the following procedures can be used to
customize an extension:
■ Line Coverage Extension (#208) to identify an extension as the “owner”
of a specific outside line. A user at the extension can activate Call
Coverage or VMS Cover for the specified line. Use Call Coverage Rings
(#116) or (#320) to specify the number of times a call should ring at the
owner’s extension before it is sent to the covering extension or VMS Cover
Rings (#117) or (#321) to specify the number of times a call should ring at
the owner’s extension before it is sent to the owner’s voice mailbox.
■ Caller ID Call Log Line Association (#318) to select the lines to associate
with extensions for logging unanswered calls. Users can view the Caller ID
information for unanswered calls on the phone’s display panel and autodial
the numbers of the unanswered calls.
■ Display Language (#303) to specify the language (English, French, or
Spanish) for messages that appear on a system display phone.
■ Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) to prevent other extensions with the
same line from joining a call at the extension. This feature is also useful for
extensions connected to a modem, fax, or any device whose function can
be disrupted by someone trying to join it.
■ Forced Account Code Entry (#307) to prevent the extension from making
an outside call until a required account code is entered. You can also use
Forced Account Code List (#409) to create a list of valid account codes;
this ensures that only authorized users with valid account codes can make
outside calls.
■ Call Waiting (#316) to identify standard phone extensions that can receive
the system (not the local telephone company) call-waiting tone for a
second incoming call when active on a call.
■ Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) to prevent the extension from making
certain types of outgoing calls (on
all
system lines).
