Centrex Operation
Using Centrex With Your EPIC Telephone
To set up a private Centrex line at your telephone:
1Connect the desired private Centrex line to your telephone.
2Follow the instructions on page 19 for setting up private lines.
To assign a distinctive ring to your Centrex line:
1Follow the instructions for assigning distinctive rings, which are found on page 13.
To store a Centrex code into a memory location:
1Follow the instructions starting on page 45 for storing numbers into memory dial locations.
To pick up another station’s ringing line:
1Dial the Centrex pickup code, or press the memory button where you have stored the Centrex pickup code.
2Dial the Centrex phone number of the ringing station.
Your EPIC telephone is ideal for use in a Centrex environment.
You can easily connect a private Centrex tele- phone number to Line 2, 3 or 4 at your phone. The only telephone line that must be connected to the same telephone number on all phones in the system is Line 1.
If you wish, you may assign your Centrex line its own distinctive ringing tone, so that you can eas- ily differentiate calls ringing on your Centrex line from calls ringing on the other lines, or on other nearby phones.
You may store your Centrex codes into memory locations and access them at the touch of a but- ton. This is much more convenient than dialing the appropriate Centrex feature code every time you wish to use a Centrex feature.
You can pick up another station’s ringing line from any other telephone.
If you have set your phone as a Centrex console, and you are being alerted by another station that its Centrex line is ringing, you may pick up that line by dialing the Centrex pickup code, followed by the Centrex telephone number of the station sending the ring.
