Automatic Line Selection | AT&T MLS-6TM, MLS-12DTM, MLS-12TM

Programming Procedures

Automatic Line

Selection

For example, lines 1 and 2 are assigned to an extension. If line 1 is free, the system connects the user to that line. If line 1 is busy but line 2 is free, the sys- tem connects the user to line 2. If both lines are busy the system connects tie user to an intercom line (if available).

For extensions with standard touch-tone and rotary phones, remember to press an intercom button first.

To copy the Automatic Line Selection (as well as other sys- tem settings) to other extensions, use Copy Settings (#399).

Description: When a user lifts the handset to make a call without first pressing a line button, the system connects him or her to a line, as determined by the Automatic Line Selection. The factory set order connects the user to the first available outside line assigned to the extension, in numerical order. This pro- cedure changes the factory setting.

Valid Entries: Any available lines (outside and intercom) for that extension, in any order

✓Line 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Intercom

(at an extension with all lines assigned)

Considerations:

■You must set the Automatic Line Selection before completing any other cen- tralized telephone programming. (Or skip it for the factory setting.)

■For extensions used mainly to call other extensions, program Intercom first.

■For standard touch-tone or rotary phones, program Intercom first.

■For hotline and doorphone extensions, program Intercom only.

Programming Notes: You do not need to include all available lines for an extension, only the ones you want the system to search through and connect automatically. If you include a line that is not assigned to the extension, the sys- tem skips it when connecting the user to a line.
