42 Chapter 3 Make a call

Program a line pool feature code

When you program a button with the line pool feature code, you must enter a line pool access code after the feature code. The programmed line pool button accesses a specific line pool, not the line pool feature. See “Programming feature codes” on page 85 for more information.

If you program a button with an indicator to access a line pool, the indicator for the line pool button turns on when all the lines in a line pool are busy. The indicator turns off when a line becomes available.

Line buttons

There is one line button for each line assigned to your telephone. Press the line button to select the line you want to answer or use to make a call. As you have several line buttons, you can access more than one line.

The T7100 telephone has two intercom paths, instead of line buttons, to answer and make calls. A T7100 can have two lines. You can press to switch between two calls, one active and one on hold.

Standard dial

Standard dial allows you to make a call by selecting a line and dialing the number. If you have a prime line, it is selected automatically when you lift the handset or press the handsfree button.

You cannot use Standard dial on a T7100 telephone unless you pick up the handset first. If you have a T7100 telephone, use the Automatic dial or Pre-dial feature for on-hook dialing.

Automatic dial

Automatic dial allows you to dial a number without selecting a line. Your prime line is selected when you start dialing a number. Automatic dial does not work if your telephone has no prime line or when your prime line is in use.

Telephones connected to an Analog Terminal Adaptor (ATA2) or an Analog Station Module (ASM) cannot use Automatic dial.
