Send and Receive Modem
If you need to place and receive calls with the modem, use the setup shown in
Figure 4-8. This setup makes line A the primary modem line, but keeps the line
available for users at other extensions when all other lines are busy.

To Use
Calls on the modem line (line A) ring only at extension X. Likewise, line A is the
last line selected by other extensions in the system, so the modem line is
unavailable for the modem only when all other lines in the system are being
used.
To Program
1.
Use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to modem extension X.
2.
Set Line Ringing for line A on extension X to “immediate ring.”
3.
Set Automatic Line Selection for all other extensions so that line A is the last
line in the select sequence. That way, the modem line is used for outgoing
voice calls only when all other lines are busy.
4.
Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to “on.”
