Other Multiline Telephones
The ALS sequence is assigned through extension programming, using
programming codes only, or through centralized telephone programming.
Single-Line Telephones
The ALS sequence for a single-line telephone can be changed only through
centralized telephone programming. It cannot be changed by the telephone
user.
The ALS sequence for single-line telephones and other tip/ring equipment
connected to an 012 module, an 008 OPT module, or an MFM is factory-set to
include only SA or ICOM buttons. As outside trunks or pools are assigned to
the telephone, they are automatically added to the ALS sequence.
In Key mode, if the ALS sequence for a single-line telephone is changed to
include only outside lines, the user cannot use system features except via
Recall or switchhook flash when off-hook.
In Behind Switch mode, the factory setting for ALS is the Prime Line. The
sequence can be changed to an ICOM button followed by the Prime Line or
outside lines. This allows the single-line telephone user to use system features
and to select the Prime Line and/or outside lines by dialing the Idle Line Access
code.

Account codes can be entered by a single-line telephone user only
when ALS is programmed to select an SA or ICOM button when the
user lifts the handset.
When Ringing/Idle Line Preference is on for an extension, the system
automatically selects a Primary Cover, Secondary Cover, or Group
Cover button with a ringing call. However, these buttons cannot be
programmed in an ALS sequence because they cannot be used to
make calls.
When an MLX telephone or console is in headset operation,
Ringing/Idle Line Preference is off automatically. The user must select a
line manually to make a call; if Headset Auto Answer is off, the user
must select a ringing line manually to answer the call.
When an MFM is installed in an MLX telephone, the ALS sequence for
the MFM should be set to select SA Ring or ICOM Ring, then
SA Originate Only or ICOM Originate Only, then outside lines (or the
Prime Line in Behind Switch mode) assigned to the MFM. Ringing/Idle
Line Preference should be on for an MFM.
