Station Lock (F21)

Description

This feature is available only on system and standard touch-tone phones.

This feature lets users enter a four-digit code on their telephone dial pad to “lock” their extension. Later, the user enters the identical code to unlock the extension. Station Lock helps to prevent unauthorized people from making outside calls from these extensions. You should recommend that users lock their extensions whenever they leave their desks for extended periods of time.

Related Features

All outside numbers except Marked System Speed Dial Numbers and numbers on the Emergency Phone Number List (#406) are restricted from locked extensions.

If a user forgets the code, use Station Unlock to unlock the extension.

Do not lock External Hotline extensions.

Considerations

You can program a Station Lock button on a system phone. A button with lights is recommended, so the user can quickly determine whether or not the extension is locked.

Users can enter a different code each time they lock their extension.

A user at a locked extension can make intercom calls and can receive intercom and outside calls.

Station Lock returns to the status (on/off) it was in before a power failure occurred or System Reset (#728) was used.
