2. Line Settings
When you initially set your system up you can use the feature Number of Lines to determine the number of outside
lines that are automatically assigned to all system extensions.
· Number of Lines
Set the number of lines automatically assigned to line appearance buttons on all extensions with programmable
buttons. The lines are also used as the default automatic line selection list for those extensions.
· Line Assignment
Allows the individual setting of additional lines to line appearance buttons beyond those set by the Number of
Lines setting.
· Line Coverage Extension
When an incoming calls arrives on a line, it is presented to all extensions that have a line appearance button for
that line. However for call coverage, VMS coverage and call forwarding it can be set to follow the settings of the
extension set as the line's coverage extension.
· Group Call Distribution
Assign outside lines to hunt group. Doing this allows outside calls to ring directly into a hunt group instead of being
answered and transferred by the receptionist.
· CO Disconnect Time
Set the disconnect time setting for a line.
· Automatic Line Selection
Adjust the automatic line selection settings for an extension.
Other Options
· Line Ringing
The ringing applied to a particular line appearance on an extension can be switched between immediate, delayed
or no ring.
· VMS Hunt Schedule
Following alerting on line appearance buttons, a line can be configured to present its incoming calls to the VMS
auto attendant. The hunt schedule sets whether and when this option is used.
· VMS Hunt Delay
Set the delay before incoming calls are rerouted to the VMS auto attendant when scheduled to be used.
Incoming Calls
Incoming calls on a line are presented as follows:
· Calls are presented on extensions that have line buttons set to match the line number. This is configured using
Number of Lines and Line Assignment .
· In addition to the line buttons, calls can be presented to extensions using the following methods:
· Incoming calls on a T1 DID line are presented to the extension number that matches the DID digits.
· If a hunt group has been associated with the line, the call is presented to any available (idle) extensions in
that hunt group.
· Coverage for calls on a line can be configured using one of the following methods:
· An extension can be associated with the line using the Line Coverage Extension option. Unanswered calls
on that line will then follow the call coverage, VMS coverage and call forwarding settings of that user.
· The VMS Hunt Schedule and VMS Hunt Delay options can be used to configure when the line redirects
unanswered calls to the voicemail auto attendant.
Outgoing Calls
· An extension user can make outgoing calls on a particular line by pressing the button for that line is one is
assigned on their extension.
· If the user goes off-hook the first available line in the extension's automatic line selection list is used.
