Station Shift Buttons

Each voice terminal in the system has a unique intercom number. These intercom numbers are automatically assigned to Auto Intercom buttons on the Display Console and on a BIS-34 Console used with a system configured as a small system. When a B1S-34 Console is used on a system configured as a large system, lines are automatically assigned to buttons above and to the right of the dial pad. If there are fewer lines than there are buttons, the remaining buttons can be programmed with features or as Auto Intercom, The lights next to each Auto Intercom button indicate the status of the voice terminal.

Auto Intercom buttons correspond to station jack connections on modules in the control unit. Usually, one station jack is used for each voice terminal, and the Auto Intercom button represents the voice terminal connected to that station jack. In some cases, however, two station jacks may be used for-a single voice terminal. The second jack is used to give the voice terminal access to the Voice Announcement to Busy Voice Terminal feature or the Simultaneous Voice and Data feature. The lower numbered jack provides the intercom number.

On the Display Console there are two types of shift buttons (station shift and line shift) used during administration.

The three station shift buttons allow you to administer up to 120 stations using just the 40 Auto Intercom buttons provided. When you press one of the station shift buttons, you change the intercom numbers assigned to the Auto Intercom buttons, as shown in Table 3-1:
