Administering Pool Number and Other Digits Sections of ARS Tables

To administer the Pool Number and Other Digits sections of each table, follow the procedure below. Tables 0 through 9 contain specific pool numbers, plus any access numbers required for an alternate long distance company.

Your system automatically places 9, the number for the main pool, in the Pool Number section of the Special Numbers Table. You cannot change this entry. If you want a particular special number to be routed to some other pool, place that special number in the Area Code/Exchange section of one of your other tables. You can make an entry in the Other Digits section of the Special Numbers Table, if you need to dial an access number such as 9 before dialing 0 (Operator).

1.If you have not already done so, enter administration mode by follow- ing the boxed instructions on page 25.

2.Touch Adm Misc.

The lights next to the administration mode buttons stop flashing, and the green light next to Adm Misc remains on.

3.Dial the 2-character code #7.

4.Dial the table number (0 through 9).

NOTE: Each entry in the table may include up to 20 characters.

Characters permitted: 0 through 9, pause (Hold button), a timed switch- hook flash (Recall button), and Touch-Tone enable (Transfer button). #is not permitted. Make sure to enter the required number of pauses between the access code and the account code for an alternate long distance company. The average number of pauses required is four, but you may find that your system works best with more or fewer pauses. Be sure to add one pause after the account code as well.
