While you must share the same Line 1 telephone number at all the stations, you may choose to leave some lines unconnected at particular sta- tions or to connect private or auxiliary lines to Lines 2, 3 or 4 at particular stations.
SHARED: This is the factory setting for all lines, and is the setting you use if the particular line is connected at this station to the same telephone number as the corresponding line at the other stations.
PRIVATE: Use this setting at any telephone that is connected to a different telephone number than the corresponding line at the other stations. For example, you may connect your private tele- phone number to Line 3 at your station instead of connecting your station to the shared Line 3. In this example, you would set Line 3 at your sta- tion as PRIVATE.
AUX: Use this setting if two or more stations are connected to a different telephone number than the corresponding line at the other stations, but they share the same number among them- selves. For example, you may connect a group of stations to a separate Line 3 telephone num- ber than the rest of the system, yet they share that same Line 3 telephone number among themselves. In this example, you would set Line 3 at these stations to “L3 AUX1.”
Note that you can have up to one auxiliary Line 2, one auxiliary Line 3, and up to two auxiliary Line 4’s.
UNCONNECTED: Use this feature at any tele- phone that is not physically connected to all of its lines. For example, you may install an EPIC 4- line telephone in a room that is currently wired for only lines 1, 2 and 3. In this example, you would set Line 4 at this station as UNCON-
NECTED.
