Programming
To program a single fax machine:
1. Do one of the following:
■ If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to
extension X.
■ If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove line A
from all pools. Then use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X.
2. Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select line A only. Set Automatic Line
Selection to select line A last on all other extensions, or remove line A from all other
extensions if they should not use it to make outgoing calls.
3. Set Line Ringing for line A on extension X to Immediate Ring. On all other extensions, set line
A to Delayed Ring or No Ring.
4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
5. To monitor the fax machine, use Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to identify extension X as a
fax extension, and program a Fax Management button by programming the fax machine
extension number on an Auto Dial button.
Fax Line Saver 9
If you do not use your fax machine enough to justify paying for its own outside line, place the
machine on its own extension (see Figure 9-9). With this setup, you must transfer calls to it
manually. If you have programmed a Fax Management button, you can transfer a call to the fax
machine with a single touch, as well as monitor the status of the fax machine.
Make sure extension X is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension, Pickup
Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night Service Group
Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
