Copy Settings
The recommended way to set up your system is to program one extension for each type of phone in the system, then use Copy Settings (#399) to program other phones of the same type. For example, you can program one
Changing Settings after Installation
As your business grows or changes, you will probably need to change the way your system was originally programmed. This section provides some examples and lists the procedures you would use to change settings after installation. For specific details on a procedure, refer to the procedure name in Chapter 5.
Changing the System Clock
You may need to change the system clock for daylight saving time, after a prolonged power failure, or after a system reset. Use System Date (#101), System Day (#102), and System Time (#103) to set the current date, day, and time.
Adding New Lines
Key Extensions
Use this section to add new lines to key extensions (all extensions in Key mode; in Hybrid mode, extension 10 and any extensions set to Key using Line Access Mode (#313)) or to add individual lines to pooled extensions.
If you add an outside line to your system, you may need to adjust some line settings. In particular, use Dial Mode (#201) if the new line is a rotary line, Line Assignment (#301) to assign the line to specific extensions, Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when the line will start ringing at each extension that has the line, and Line Access Restriction (#302) to limit an extension’s access to the line. Additionally, the system automatically assigns the new line as the last line in the Automatic Line Selection sequence. If you want to change the order, use Automatic Line Selection (Centralized Telephone Programming).
IMPORTANT:
Do not use Number of Lines (#104) if you add lines to the system after initial setup, because it changes Line Assignment (#301), Line Access Restriction (#302), Automatic Line Selection, and Line Ringing for existing lines back to factory settings. To change line assignments without affecting other settings, use Line Assignment (#301).
