■ Industry-Standard Devices. Industry-standard devices (including
standard phones) require 1-pair mounting cords; Lucent Technologies D2R
mounting cords are recommended.
— Standard Phones. Connect standard touch-tone or rotary dial phones
to the system. You can connect a standard phone either alone or
combined with a system phone. For more information, see
‘‘Combination Extensions’’ on page 8. Standard phones can be used
to make calls when plugged into any port of the PARTNER ACS
processor module.
— Power Failure Operation. During a power failure, system phones will
not work because they require power to operate. If you connect
standard phones to the first two extensions on the PARTNER ACS
processor module, however, users can place and answer outside calls
on the first two lines. If you connect a standard phone to the first two
extensions on each 308EC module, or the first extension on each 206
module, users can place and answer outside calls on any of these
lines. You can connect a standard phone either alone or combined with
a system phone. For more information, see ‘‘Combination
Extensions’’ on page 8.
— Hotlines. A hotline extension should be connected to a standard
phone, rather than a system telephone, but it can ring any type of
phone. An internal hotline phone can also be set up to ring the paging
system, so announcements can be made over the loudspeaker. Do not
connect a hotline phone to extension 10, 11, or the first two extensions
of any 308EC or 206 module; keep these extensions available for
power failure use.
For the message-waiting capability, you must connect standard phones with
LED-compatible message-waiting lights to a PARTNER ACS processor module,
308EC modules, or Release 3.0 (R3.0) or later 206 modules. This
message-waiting capability does not work with standard phones with neon-type
message-waiting lights.
— Auxiliary Equipment. There are a variety of ways to set up fax
machines, modems, and answering machines to work with the system.
See Chapter 4 in the
PARTNER Advanced Communications System
Programming and Use
guide for advice on using this equipment. To
connect a telephone and a standard device on the same extension, see
‘‘Combination Extensions’’ on page 8.
— Caller ID Devices. A standard Caller ID device may be installed with
the PARTNER system. This arrangement will give a user Caller ID
information on a single outside line. If a user desires to use a standard
Caller ID device on another line, another Caller ID device must be
installed for that line.
Note: The Caller ID device must be connected to the network line
before the line is connected to the PARTNER processor module. The
PARTNER system does not pass Caller ID information through to a
