Switchboard compatibility

Generally this telephone may be connected to switchboards which support tone signalling and timed break recall. In the event of any difficulties please consult your switchboard service provider.

Switchboard External Line Access Code

When you connect your telephone to a switchboard, you can set the switchboard’s external line access code so that when you make an external call using the handset directory or redial list the code is automatically dialled before the number.

To set the external line access code

Press the UP button to select BASE.

C OK

Press OK.

Press the DOWN button to select

BASE SETTINGS.

C OK

Press OK.

Press the DOWN button to select Phone Line.

COK Press OK.

Press the DOWN button to select Prefix.

Press the DOWN button to select Min.length.

C OK

Press OK.

Enter the number of digits to make an internal call to other extensions on your switchboard.

C OK

Press OK to store.

Note

For the external line access code to be dialled for external calls only, it is important that all external numbers stored in your handset directory must contain more digits than the number of digits required to make an internal call to other extensions on your switchboard. This is most likely to occur when you have local external numbers stored in the handset directory without the area code. To overcome potential problems ensure that all numbers are stored complete with area code.
