SECTION 1 Customizing
Following is a list and brief description of the features you can change. There are two kinds of
features,
SYSTEM FEATURES
and
TELEPHONE FEATURES.
When you customize a system
feature, you have made a change in the whole system that affects all the telephone extensions.
In this manual, information about system features is always printed with a grey background.
When you customize a telephone feature, the change is made for one telephone only.
In this
manual, information about telephone features is always printed with a green background.
Description of Features that May be Customized
System Features (instructions for customizing begin on page 15)
■
AUTOMATIC PRIVACY
— This feature prevents others from joining your call without your
permission. If Privacy is
On,
other people in the system can be added to a call only through
conferencing or a special release of Privacy. If Privacy is
Off,
another user can join a telephone
conversation by pressing the line button that the call is on or by dialing a dial code (see
User Manual).
(Possible settings are
On
and
Off.
Installed setting is
On.)
■
TOLL CALL CHECK
— If you are in an area that requires a "1" before every toll call, leave this
at the preset value of
1 Required.
If your local telephone service does not require a "1" before
dialing a toll call, change the setting to
1 Not Required.
If you must dial an access digit in
order to make an outside call, you have PBX or Centrex lines. If you have PBX or Centrex
lines, the
SPIRIT
system, will not check for a toll call until after the code is dialed,
if the
PBX/Centrex code and lines are correctly customized. Calls will be checked only for telephones
that have been customized as Toll Restricted. (Possible settings are
1 Required
and
1 Not Required.
Installed setting is
1 Required.)
■
HELD CALL REMINDER
— The system can remind a user that a call is on hold. You can set
the number of minutes it will wait before providing the reminder.
(Possible settings are
Zero
for no reminder,
One, Two, Three,
and
Four Minutes.
Installed setting is
One Minute.)
■
LINE TYPE
— All incoming lines are either
PBX/Centrex Lines
or direct
Outside Lines.
If your
system is not at incoming-line capacity you have
Unavailable Lines.
(For example, if you have 11
incoming lines on a system that has 12 incoming line jacks on the controller, line 12 is
Unavailable).
Find out how many incoming lines you have, and customize
Unavailable Lines
as
such for proper operation of AUTOMATIC LINE SELECTION.
(Possible settings are
Unavailable
Line, Outside Line,
and
PBX/Centrex Line.
Installed setting is
Outside Line.)
■
PBX/CENTREX LINE ACCESS CODES
— If you have PBX/Centrex lines, a code is necessary to
dial an outside call. By entering the code(s) required, you will allow the
SPIRIT
system to
check for toll calls and to automatically insert pauses in
SpeedCall
numbers on PBX/Centrex
lines. (Up to four one- or two-digit codes may be entered. One code, the digit 9, is already
installed for your convenience, but may be removed or changed.)
■
EXTERNAL ALERT
— If an optional external alerter (buzzer) is part of your system, you can
set when it will turn on for
each line. (Possible settings are
No Alert, Night Only, Day Only,
and
Always On.
Installed setting is
Night Only.)
NOTE: Night Only and Day Only are
determined by whether Night Service is on or off (see User Manual).
■
DIAL TYPE
— Set
each line
for the kind of service you have with your local telephone
company.
(Possible settings are
Touch Tone
and
Dial Pulse.
Installed setting is
Dial Pulse.)
