Assigning Lines
3-14
Key Extensions 3
In Key mode, all extensions are Key extensions; in Hybrid mode, extension 10 and any extensions
set to Key by using Line Access Mode (#313) are key extensions.
After you program the Number of Lines, use the following features as needed:
■ Dial Mode (#201) to identify any rotary lines (the default for all lines is “touch-tone”).
■ Line Assignment (#301) to assign lines to specific extensions (if the line was not assigned
using the Number of Lines procedure), to remove lines from some extensions, or to change
the button used to pick up a line at a specific extension.
■ Line Access Restriction (#302) to prevent an extension from receiving and/or making
outside calls on specific lines.
■ Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when a line starts ringing at
each extension that has the line.
■ Automatic Line Selection (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify the order in
which the system selects an available line (intercom or outside) when a user at the extension
lifts the handset or presses
S to make a call without first selecting a specific line button.
For extensions with tip/ring telephones, set Automatic Line Selection to intercom first. This
enables tip/ring telephones to access system features, including intercom calling. When users
lift the handsets on tip/ring telephones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access an outside line,
they must dial
9.
Pooled Extensions 3
If your system will be configured for Hybrid mode, use the features described in this section to
change the assignment of lines in pools, to assign auxiliary pools to pooled extensions, or to
remove the main pool from pooled extensions. (See “Mode of Operation (#198)” on page 4-50 to
change the mode of operation of the system.) If a pooled extension also has an individual line, see
“Key Extensions” on page 3-14 to assign that individual line.
After you program the Number of Lines to assign lines to the main pool, use the following
features as needed:
■ Dial Mode (#201) to identify any rotary lines (the default for all lines is “touch-tone”).
■ Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove lines from the main pool and assign lines to auxiliary
pools.
■ Line Access Mode (#313) to change a specific extension’s operation from Pooled to Key.
Refer to “Key Extensions” to assign lines to those extensions.
■ Pool Extension Assignment (#314) to remove the main pool, assign auxiliary pools, or
change the location of the button used to select an auxiliary pool at specific extensions. (The
location of the two main pool buttons cannot be changed.)
■ Pool Access Restriction (#315) to prevent an extension from receiving and/or making
outside calls on all lines in specific pools.
