6 Maintaining Your System

 

 

 

Adding New Pools

You can create new pools if your system is operating in Hybrid mode. If you add outside lines for use in a new pool, you may need to use the following features:

Dial Mode (#201) if the new lines are rotary lines

Pool Line Assignment (#207) to assign lines to the new pool

Pool Extension Assignment (#314) to assign the new pool to specific extensions

Line Ringing to specify when the new pool starts ringing at each extension that has the pool

Pool Access Restriction (#315) to limit an extension’s access to all the lines in the new pool

Automatic Line Selection to add the new pool to the extension’s Automatic Line Selection sequence

Adding New Extensions

If you add an extension to your system, you can probably use Copy Settings (#399) to copy the settings of an existing extension.

Swapping Extensions

If a user changes location but wants to keep the same extension number, you can make the change easily by changing the connection at the control unit.

For example, if the users at extensions 29 and 32 switch offices, you can disconnect the modular plugs from those extension jacks in the control unit. Then reconnect the plug from 32 into extension jack 29 and the plug from 29 into extension jack 32. Now the users can take their respective telephones to their new locations, keep the same extension numbers, and retain the telephones’ programmed settings.

In some cases, some system parameters may also need to be changed, i.e., pool extension assignments, when swapping extensions.
