Obtain Form 2a, System Numbering: Extension Jacks. Also obtain any other relevant forms, including group-assigned feature forms (for example, Form 7c, Group Coverage) and forms for the individual extension (for example, Form 4d, MLX Telephone). Appendix D of this guide includes a

olist of the planning forms.

On Form 2a, confirm that there is a spare jack that supports the type of extension you want to add. In the Jack Type column, A indicates an analog jack, D indicates a digital (MLX) jack, and B indicates a basic jack (for single-line telephones, adjuncts, and certain applications).

NOTE:

If there are no spare jacks, you must add a module to the control unit before you can add an extension. Contact your Lucent Technologies representative.

Make decisions about which features and buttons to assign to this extension as described in the planning guidelines above. Record your decisions on the appropriate planning forms.
