Feature Reference

Number of Lines (#104)

Description

This feature should be used only for initial system setup.

This System Programming procedure determines in Key mode the number of outside lines that are automatically assigned to all system extensions; in Hybrid mode, it determines the number of lines assigned to the main pool. (This number does not have to match the actual number of lines connected at the control unit.) This feature should be used only for initial system setup.

Related Features

In Hybrid mode, do not use this procedure if you add lines to the system after initial setup, because it changes Pool Line Assignment (#207), Pool Extension Assignment (#314), Pool Access Restriction (#315), Automatic Line Selection, and Line Ringing for existing pools back to factory settings. Additionally, it changes Line Assignment (#301), Line Access Restriction (#302), Automatic Line Selection, and Line Ringing for individual lines back to factory settings. To change pool assignments without affecting other settings, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) and Pool Extension Assignment (#314).

In Key mode, do not use this procedure 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).

Considerations

You can use this feature to tell the system how many lines are actually connected at the control unit. For example, if some line jacks do not have lines connected, use this procedure to indicate the number of jacks that actually have lines connected; otherwise the line numbers associated with empty jacks would be assigned to phones as though there were actually lines connected.

You can use this procedure to limit the number of lines that are automatically assigned to all extensions. For example, if there are ten lines connected to the control unit, you can use this procedure to set the number of lines to eight, so that only the first eight lines are assigned to all system extensions. You can then use Line Assignment (#301) to assign lines 9 and 10 to specific extensions.
