Instruction manual

For extensions with standard phones, set Automatic Line Selection
(Centralized Telephone Programming) 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 an outside line, they must dial 9.
Customizing Extensions
In addition to line assignments, the following procedures can be used to
customize an extension:
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
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.
Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) to prevent the extension from making
certain types of outgoing calls (on all system lines).
Disallowed List Assignments (#405) to assign one or more Disallowed
Phone Number Lists
to the extension. Use Disallowed Phone Number
Lists (#404)
to create the lists of outside numbers that extensions cannot
dial.
Allowed List Assignments (#408) to assign an Allowed Phone Number
List to the extension. Use
Allowed Phone Number Lists (#407) to create
a list of outside numbers that otherwise restricted extensions can dial.
Pickup Groups (#501), Calling Groups (#502), Night Service Group
(#504),
and Hunt Groups (#505) to place the extension in any of these
groups.
Fax Machine Extension (#601), Doorphone 1/2 Extension (#604/#605),
Doorphone Alert Extension (#606),
or AA Extension (#607) to identify
the new extension as one of these equipment types.
“Setting Up Auxiliary Equipment” later in this chapter provides an overview of
the procedures you use for setting up devices, such as fax machines, hotline
phones, and call reporting devices. Also, Chapter 4 provides detailed
information and example applications for auxiliary equipment.
Copy Settings
The recommended way to set up your system is to program one extension for
each type of phone in the system, then use
Copy Settings (#399) to program
other phones of the same type. For example, you can program one MLS-12D
phone and then copy its settings to any other extensions that have MLS-12D or
MLS-12 phones. See “Copy Settings” in Chapter 5 for a list of the programmed
settings that are copied.)
