Lucent Technologies 518-456-10 PARTNER ACS Programming

26
When the PARTNER ACS is installed, it uses factory settings that reflect the
most common usage of the equipment. You can change these settings as
required to customize them for the business.
You can program the communications system from extension 10 or extension
11. You may find it more convenient to program from extension 11. This
capability allows the receptionist to continue handling calls at extension 10
while you program.
System Programming changes settings for the system as a whole, or for
individual lines or extensions. (Refer to the
Programming and Use guide for
the PARTNER ACS system for more information about System Programming
options.)
You must perform the following two procedures for every installation :
■Assign the PARTNE R Voice Messaging PC Card’s virtual extensions 78 and
79 to PARTNER ACS Hunt Group 7 (#505) used for voice mail systems.
■Assign an extension as the destination extension for Transfer Return (#306)
calls from Hunt Group 7 (#505). This ensures that when a caller chooses to
transfer to another extension while listening to a personal greeting or when
a subscriber’s mailbox is full and the call is unanswered, the transferred
call will return to the designated system extension where it rings until it is
answered. If you want calls retur ned to the receptio nist’s extension, assign
extension 10 or 11 as the Transfer Return extension.
