Centrex Operation

Setting a Telephone to Ring a Centrex Console

To set up a telephone to ring a Centrex console:

1Press PROGRAM.

- The display will read “Program...”

2Press the soft key under NEXT repeatedly, until “Ring Console” appears in the display, and then press ENTER.

The display will show the current ring console setting.

3Press the softkey under CHANGE until the desired ring console setting is displayed.

The choices are:

Ring Console: NO (factory setting)

Ring Console: YES

4If you have chosen “YES,” then you must decide how many seconds you want this station to delay before ringing the Centrex console. Press CHANGE repeatedly to choose a delay of between 2 and 30 seconds. Note that one ring cycle is approxi- mately 6 seconds.

Then you must press the soft key under CHANGE until the desired Centrex Line is displayed.

The choices are: Centrex Line: L2 Centrex Line: L3

Centrex Line: L4 (factory setting)

5Press PROGRAM to exit.

If you wish your telephone to notify any Centrex consoles that may have been set up that your Centrex line is ringing, you must choose how long you want your phone to delay before alert- ing the Centrex console.

Note that if you wish your telephone to alert a Centrex Console, you must set your ring con- sole setting to “YES.”

Then you must decide how many seconds you want your station to delay before alerting the Centrex Console. You may choose a delay between 2 and 30 seconds.

In addition, you must specify which one of your lines is your private Centrex line. This is impor- tant, because only when this line rings will the Centrex console be alerted. Calls ringing on the other lines will have no effect on the console.

Note that once you set up your telephone to ring a Centrex console, you are simply broad- casting an alert whenever your Centrex line is ringing. The alerts that you broadcast will be received by any other station that has been set up as a Centrex console for your station.
