Nortel Networks Modular ICS 4.0 manual Using a line pool to make a call Ƒfl›

56 / Making calls

The Norstar Modular ICS system can have 15 line pools, and a telephone can be programmed to access any number of them.

A line pool access code is a number you dial to get a line pool. The access code can be up to four digits long. You can have several different line pools for your system, each one giving you access to a different set of external lines. It is one way of sharing lines across telephones in a system.

Your installer or customer service representative programs the line pool access codes and gives each telephone access to a line pool.

Everyone in the office should have a list of the line pool access codes for the line pools their telephones can use.
