Overview Features and Capabilities The following list provides an overview of the PARTNER Endeavor™ Communications System’s features. The features apply to all releases of PARTNER Endeavor unless specified otherwise. ■ Full line of system phones, some with displays showing date, time, and programming and feedback messages. All system phones provide access to multiple outside lines and system features.
Overview ■ Power failure operation with a standard phone, allowing you to make calls from extension 10 during a power failure while retaining programmed equipment settings for up to four days. (An optional Uninterruptible Power Supply, or UPS, is also available to allow full equipment operation during a power failure.) ■ Centrex or PBX operation support—including one-touch dialing of feature access codes on system phones.
System Components System Components Modular hardware design makes the system easy to install and expand. The basic system consists of a PARTNER Endeavor processor module, which supports three lines and eight extensions. Using these lines and extensions, you can add various optional devices and telephones to configure your system to meet your needs. To expand the system to include more lines and extensions, simply attach additional modules and a carrier to contain them.

System Components Configurations The system can have one of three basic configurations: ■ Stand-alone PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module. This configuration does not use a carrier. ■ 2-Slot Carrier, which can hold up to two modules. The PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module resides in the leftmost slot with either a 362EC expansion module or PARTNER Mail VS (PMVS) module in the right slot. ■ 5-Slot Carrier, which can hold up to five modules.
Overview with Caller ID to the line jacks. Any users with system display phones who receive calls on Caller ID lines will get Caller ID. For more information, see “Caller ID” in Chapter 5. If you want message-waiting capability on standard phones that are equipped with LED-compatible message-waiting lights, you must connect those phones to the bottom two extension jacks on a PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module or 362EC expansion module.
System Components ■ Automatic System Answer/Direct Extension Dial PC Card ■ PARTNER Voice Messaging PC Card For information on installing PC Cards, see PARTNER PC Card Installation Instructions. System Capacity The PARTNER Endeavor release that you have, the carrier you use, and the combination of modules installed determine the number of available lines and extensions. Table 1-2.
Overview System mode is determined by the configuration of the processor module. By default, the system is configured for Key mode. Changing to Hybrid mode requires modifying the processor module. Only Lucent Technologies Authorized Personnel or Authorized Dealers can modify the processor module to accommodate Hybrid mode. The mode for your system must be decided upon before installation; and in the continental U.S.
System Components System phone users can press any of the available pool buttons on their phones or they can enter the pool access code at intercom dial tone to make an outside call. (Standard phone users must dial 9 or enter the pool access code at intercom dial tone to access a pool since their phones do not have pool buttons.) After the user presses a pool button or enters a pool access code, the system selects a free line from the pool for the user to make the call.
Overview Telephones System Telephones This guide refers to Lucent Technologies telephones specifically designed to work with the system as system phones. These include the PARTNER Endeavor-34D, PARTNER Endeavor-18D, PARTNER Endeavor-18, and PARTNER Endeavor-6 telephones. You can also use the TransTalk© 9000-series wireless phones, including MDW 9000, MDW 9010, MDW 9030P and MDW 9031P Pocketphone, although they are not discussed in this guide.

Overview Intercom Autodialers PARTNER Endeavor-model system phones support the PARTNER-CA48 Call Assistant Intercom Autodialer at extensions 10 and 11. The autodialer provides Auto Dial buttons for all of the extensions in your system. The status lights next to each button also indicate calling activity at that extension. Users can program the Auto Dial buttons for either intercom ringing, voice signaling, or manual signaling.
Auxiliary Equipment Enhanced Tip Ring Ports There are eight Enhanced Tip Ring ports per processor module and 362EC expansion module. The top six station ports support only Enhanced Tip Ring devices and the bottom two ports support both Enhanced Tip Ring and Tip Ring devices. Connect headsets and other adjunct equipment that do not require incoming ringing to any port or through the AUX jack on a PARTNER Endeavor telephone.
Overview Connecting Standard Devices You can connect a standard device so that it is on an extension by itself, or so that it shares an extension with another piece of equipment (either another standard device or a system phone) as long as the REN of the two devices together does not exceed 2.0. (System phones have 0.0 REN.) For example, you can connect a standard phone and an answering machine to the same extension. An extension with two devices connected to it is called a combination extension.
Programming Overview After the system hardware is installed, you can customize the system and individual telephones. This chapter explains how to use programming to accomplish that. There are two types of programming: ■ System Programming allows you to customize the system to meet the needs of your business. When the system is first installed, it uses factory settings that reflect the most commonly used options. You can change system settings as needed.
Programming Hardware Considerations Programming procedures use line and extension numbers. The line number represents the line jack on a PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor or 362EC expansion module to which the outside line is connected. Similarly, the extension number represents the extension jack on a 362EC expansion module or a PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module to which the system phone or standard device is connected.
Initial System Setup Initial System Setup After the control unit is installed, you set up the system using a combination of system and telephone programming procedures. In this guide, System Programming procedures are identified by a code (# and three digits); Telephone Programming procedures are identified by the feature name only. Use the System Planner as a guide when programming. The following sections provide an overview of the procedures you use for initial system setup.
Programming ■ Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when a line will start ringing at each extension that has the line. For additional information about line ringing options, see ‘‘Programming a Receptionist’s Extension’’ on page 2-23.
Initial System Setup For extensions with standard phones, set Automatic Line Selection to intercom first. This enables standard phones to access equipment features, including intercom calling. When users lift the handsets on standard phones, they hear intercom dial tone. To access a pool, they can dial the pool access code 880, 881, 882, or 883 or dial 9 to access the first available line or pool in the sequence.
Programming ■ Fax Machine Extensions (#601), Doorphone Extension (#604 and #605), Doorphone Alert Extensions (#606), AA Extensions (#607), External Hotline (#311), or Hotline (#603) to identify the extension as one of these equipment types. NOTE: With the exception of headphones, auxiliary equipment works only on Tip Ring ports (the bottom two ports of the PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module or 362EC expansion module). Because headphones do not require a ring, they can be plugged into any port.
Changing Settings after Installation ■ Pool Extension Assignment (#314) ■ Pool Line Assignment (#207) ■ PARTNER Voice Messaging PC Card For more information about setting these features, see Chapter 5, ‘‘Feature Reference.’’ For more information on using the PARTNER Voice Messaging PC card, see PARTNER Voice Messaging PC Card Installation, Programming and Use.
Programming If you add an outside line to your system for use in an existing pool, use Dial Mode (#201) if the new line is a rotary line and Pool Line Assignment (#207) t o add the line to an existing pool. IMPORTANT: Do not use Number of Lines (#104) 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.
Changing Settings to Support PBX or Centrex Services Changing Settings to Support PBX or Centrex Services This section applies only if you use PBX or Centrex services with your system. If it does not apply, go to the next section, “System Programming Options.” ■ PBX services are provided by a private telephone switch. ■ Centrex services are provided by your local telephone company from a Central Office (CO) outside your premises.
Programming Speed Dial and Auto Dial Numbers When you program numbers outside the PBX or Centrex system as Speed Dial and Auto Dial numbers, include the PBX or Centrex system dial-out code “9” on most systems), followed by one or more pauses, in the stored number.
System Programming Options IMPORTANT: While procedures that restrict dialing are very effective, absolute protection against misuse cannot be guaranteed. System phones provide more protection than standard phones. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you install system phones where restricting phone use is important. Locking an Extension The system offers a Station Lock feature that lets users enter a four-digit code on their telephone dialpad to lock their extensions.
Programming Table 2-1.
System Programming Options Table 2-2 provides examples of settings that can be used to restrict an extension’s dialing once it gets an outside line or pool. Table 2-2.
Programming To override all dialing restrictions except Line Access Restriction (#302), pool Access Restriction, and Night Service with System Password (#403), use Allowed Phone Number Lists (#407) to create up to eight lists of outside numbers that otherwise-restricted extensions can dial. Then use Allowed List Assignments (#408) to assign one or more of the lists to an extension.
System Programming Options — Music-On-Hold Volume (#614) controls the volume at which the music plays when the Music-On-Hold jack is active. Changes to this setting affect the many features that use Music-On-Hold: Background Music, Call Park, Call Waiting, Conference, Exclusive Hold, Hold, Transfer, and Transfer Return.
Programming — VMS Hunt Schedule (#507) determines when outside calls should ring the VMS Hunt Group (always, day only, or night only) depending on the status of the Night Service Button (#503) at extension 10. — Automatic VMS Cover (#310) determines whether or not an extension’s unanswered intercom and transferred calls and outside calls on lines assigned ownership are automatically covered by the voice messaging system.
Using System Programming Backup Programming—Manual (#124) enables you to initiate a backup of your system and telephone programming settings whenever you feel that it is necessary. It is recommended that a backup be performed after any change to the system or telephone programming.
Programming You use the following special buttons while programming: ■ N and P cycle forward and backward through the programming procedures. You can use these buttons to select a procedure. (If a procedure instructs you to press N P, pressing these buttons one after the other enables you to repeat the current programming procedure.) ■ n and p cycle forward and backward through a procedure’s parameters. A parameter is typically an outside line, a pool, an extension, or a telephone list entry.

To change to Centralized Telephone Programming when you are in System Programming, press c. To move back to System Programming when you are in Centralized Telephone Programming, press c then s. Remote Programming The system permits programming from a remote location using an auxiliary device called the Remote Administration Unit (RAU).
Telephone Programming Options Personal Speed Dialing Personal Speed Dial numbers are outside phone numbers that a user dials by pressing f (or # on a standard phone) plus a two-digit code. Unlike System Speed Dial numbers, which are available to all users in the system, Personal Speed Dial numbers are available only at the extension for which they are programmed. Users can store up to 20 Personal Speed Dial numbers.
Programming Backup Answering Options To assist the receptionist in handling calls, consider the following features: ■ Automatic System Answer. Useful during peak calling periods to answer outside calls while the receptionist is busy on other calls. When activated, this feature answers incoming calls after a specified number of rings and plays a customized greeting. This requires an optional ASA/DXD PC card. For installation instructions, see PARTNER PC Card Installation Instructions.
Telephone Programming Options Button Programming The PARTNER Endeavor-34D phone shown in Figure 2-4 illustrates the following programmed buttons in addition to some other system features: ■ Extension Numbers. Auto Dial buttons are programmed for extensions 11 through 28. The receptionist can use these buttons to dial or transfer calls to the extensions with one touch.
Programming Line/ Programmable Buttons Any unused line button is programmable Figure 2-4. Ext. Intercom Message Intercom Button Programming for Receptionist’s Phone Alternatively, an Intercom Autodialer for the extensions the receptionist dials most frequently can be used. This leaves buttons on the phone free for more features and phone numbers.

Programming 34-button phones in the system, you must use a 34-button display phone to program since an 18-button phone cannot be used to program a 34-button phone. To program a phone from extension 10 or 11, use the following procedure: 1. Place the Programming Overlay over the dialpad of the system display phone at extension 10 or 11—see ‘‘Programming Overlays’’ on page 2-17 for more information. 2. To start programming: a. Press f 0 0.

Learning about Telephones This chapter explains how system and standard phones work with the system, as well as, combination extensions where more than one phone or standard device is installed. In addition, basic call-handling features and dial-code features are listed at the end of this chapter. See the feature name in Chapter 5 for details about a specific feature. System Telephones PARTNER Endeavor-model phones have several buttons and indicators.

Green wink means the call is either on hold or parked at your extension. (Anyone who has the line can retrieve the held call.
Learning about Telephones Ringing Patterns System phones have these ringing patterns: ■ An outside call will ring... ring... ring. ■ An intercom call will ring BEEP... ring BEEP... ring BEEP. If you have a system display phone, the caller’s extension number (and name if programmed) will show on the display. ■ A transferred call, or an unanswered transferred or parked call that is ringing back at your extension, will ring BEEP BEEP... ring BEEP BEEP... ring BEEP BEEP.
System Telephones ■ If you are already on a call, you can switch from the handset to the speaker and microphone by pressing S and hanging up the handset. Conversely, if you are using the speaker and microphone and want to switch to the handset, lift the handset and the speaker and microphone will turn off. ■ To turn off the microphone when you are using the speaker, press!. This will mute your voice so the other party cannot hear you.
Learning about Telephones Speakerphone Performance Tips The speaker on your system phone has a sensitive sound-activated switch. Room acoustics and background noise can affect the proper operation of the speakerphone.
Standard Telephones NOTE: Standard phones can be used to make calls when plugged into any port of the PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor or 362EC expansion module. However, standard phones will ring only when plugged into the Tip Ring ports, which are the bottom two ports. ■ To use a system feature, press # (in place of f used on system phones) followed by its two-digit code when you hear intercom dial tone.
Learning about Telephones Dial Tones Standard phones have two different dial tones: ■ Outside dial tone is generated by your local telephone company to indicate that you are connected with an outside line. ■ Intercom dial tone is generated by the system to indicate that you are connected with an inside line. You hear this dial tone when you are making an inside, or intercom, call. To hear the difference between the two dial tones, lift the handset.
Standard Telephones for instructions on using pool access codes). Otherwise, the system selects an idle line from a pool automatically when the user dials a 9 at intercom dial tone. ■ Unless Call Waiting (#316) is assigned to specific standard phone extensions, there is no indication of a second call and an inside caller will hear a busy tone if a standard phone is in use. If Call Waiting is assigned, the user hears a call-waiting tone (two beeps) when a second call comes in for the extension.
Learning about Telephones Feature Phones A feature phone is a standard telephone that has feature buttons in addition to the regular 12-key dial pad. For example, there are feature phones that have programmable auto dial buttons, last number redial buttons, hold buttons, and built-in speakers. You can use most of the system’s dial-code features from a feature phone, and program them onto a feature phone button. However, there are some limitations to what these phones can do.
Combination Extensions Combination Extensions A combination extension is an extension with two devices connected to it—either two standard devices, or a system phone and a standard device (but not two system phones). (For instructions on how to install a combination extension, see the PARTNER Endeavor Communications System Installation guide.) The following are examples of useful combination extensions: ■ System phone plus standard telephone, for power failure backup on extension 10.
Learning about Telephones ■ The lights on the system phone show what the standard telephone is doing as well as what the system phone is doing. For an explanation of light patterns, see ‘‘Lights’’ on page 3-3. ■ If Privacy is active at a combination extension, no other extension can join a call in progress at either a system phone or a standard device. (However, a phone can interrupt a call on a standard device at the same extension.
Using Telephones Dial-Code Features Dial-code features are features that you access by dialing a feature code at the telephone dialpad. From a system phone, you can dial f or i, followed by the two- or three-digit code (or press a programmed Auto Dial button); from a standard phone, you typically dial # followed by the two- or three-digit code when you have intercom dial tone. Some dial-code features are not available on standard phones, as noted by footnotes in the following list. 1. 2. 3.
Learning about Telephones 3-16
Using Auxiliary Equipment Overview There are many ways to set up auxiliary equipment—the setup you choose depends upon your needs and the number of devices you have. This chapter presents some common setups. (It does not cover how to physically connect the equipment, or how to program the features.
Using Auxiliary Equipment heard at that port. A doorphone is especially useful for providing access to offices or departments after hours. For example, you can install a doorphone outside your building entrance to allow visitors to ring telephones inside the building when the receptionist is not there and the front door is locked. The system supports up to two Lucent Technologies PARTNER Doorphones or any number of Lucent Technologies Universal Doorphones.
Overview ■ Headsets allow users to hold hands-free conversations. A headset is a combination earphone and microphone worn on the head, useful for receptionists, salespeople, or others who need to have their hands free while talking on the phone. Lucent Technologies offers several compatible headsets. Connect headsets and other adjunct equipment that do not require incoming ringing to any port or through the AUX jack on a PARTNER Endeavor Communications System telephone.
Using Auxiliary Equipment If a Device Has Trouble Two System Programming procedures can be used to adjust the system settings for auxiliary equipment installed at an extension, if a device has trouble answering calls or dialing out. If a device (such as an answering machine) does not pick up transferred or intercom calls, you can use Distinctive Ring (#308) to change the ringing, so that all calls ring like outside calls at that extension.
Answering Machines Single Answering Machine The single answering machine setup (Figure 4-1) serves the entire system. The answering machine is connected to its own extension, and can cover all the lines in the system, or as many lines as you assign to it. You can install the answering machine on an extension by itself, or combine it with a system phone or a standard phone on the same extension (see “Combination Extensions” in the PARTNER Endeavor Communications System Installation guide).
Using Auxiliary Equipment Multiple Answering Machines If a single answering machine cannot handle all your calls, you can set up two or more machines at different extensions (Figure 4-2) so that a call does not go unanswered. If one answering machine is busy, a second call will be answered by the second machine. A setup such as this might be used by a movie theater to announce movie times to people calling for information. Lines CONTROL UNIT Figure 4-2.
Answering Machines Personal Answering Machine A personal answering machine is used to answer all the calls that ring at a certain extension (Figure 4-3). It is useful for the following situations: ■ When you do not want to dedicate an extension to an answering machine ■ When the extension receives a lot of intercom calls ■ When outside calls come through a receptionist and are transferred to the extension ■ When an extension has a private line Lines Ext X ANS MACH CONTROL UNIT Ext.
Using Auxiliary Equipment If you intercept a call from the answering machine, you will hear a click to notify you that the answering machine has turned off. Auto Attendant An auto attendant answers calls and directs them to a specified extension, Calling Group, or Hunt Group (based on the digits a caller dials after listening to a list of choices in a recorded greeting). For example, the auto attendant could answer calls and tell callers to press 1 for Sales, 2 for Parts, 3 for Service, and so on.
Credit Card Scanners To Use: Follow the instructions packaged with the auto attendant. Make sure that the unit is in backup call-answering mode. When callers call the main number for your company, the receptionist normally picks up the call. If the receptionist is busy, the auto attendant answers and plays a recorded message, such as: “Please hold for the receptionist or dial an extension number now.” To Program: 1.
Using Auxiliary Equipment NOTE: Credit card scanners only work on Tip Ring ports, which are the bottom two ports of the PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor module or 362EC expansion module. Using Credit Card Scanners When you make a call on the credit card scanner, an outside line is automatically selected. If you combine the credit card scanner with a system phone or standard phone, you cannot use the phone while the credit card scanner is operating. You can use only one of the devices at a time.
Fax Machines Using the Fax Management Feature On any system phone, you can program a button with lights to serve as a Fax Management button. The lights next to this button tell you when the fax machine is in use, available, or not answering (for example, when it is out of paper). You can also use the button to transfer calls from your extension to the fax machine with a single touch.
Using Auxiliary Equipment Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine There are two situations in which you would want to transfer a call to your fax machine: ■ You answer an outside call and hear a fax machine signaling. (A fax signal is a single beep sequence— beep.... beep.... beep). If you hear this, you should transfer the call immediately to the fax machine extension. ■ You are on a call with a person who wants to send you a fax using the fax machine that is connected to his or her phone.
Fax Machines If you are using the PARTNER MAIL system’s Automated Attendant Service, you can program PARTNER MAIL to transfer fax calls to the fax extension or a group of fax extensions automatically. Use Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to identify fax extensions. If you have multiple fax machines, put all of the fax extensions into a single Hunt Group (any group 1–6) using Hunt Group Extensions (#505).
Using Auxiliary Equipment To Program: 1. If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X. If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove line A from all pools and then use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X. 2. Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select line A only.
Fax Machines To Use: When a person answers a call and hears a fax machine signaling on the other end, the person can transfer the call to extension X—the fax machine extension. To send a fax transmission, simply lift the handset on the fax machine—an outside line will be automatically selected. To Program: 1. If extension X is the key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign all lines to extension X.
Using Auxiliary Equipment Send and Receive Fax Machines If your business has high-volume fax traffic, you can set up two fax machines, one that only sends and the other that only receives. For example, in Figure 4-8, fax 1 is the send machine, fax 2 is the receive machine. Line A is the fax line, the number of which is published as the fax number. If fax 2 doesn’t answer line A, fax 1 will. The receive fax must be on one of the bottom two ports of the processor or 362EC expansion module.
Fax Machines 2. Set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select outside lines first (line A selected last). For pooled extensions, set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select pools and outside lines first (line A selected last). 3. Set Line Ringing for line A at extension X to Delayed Ring; set all other lines and pools to No Ring. 4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned. 5.
Using Auxiliary Equipment Modems There are several ways to use modems with your system, as described below. NOTE: Modems can connect directly to an extension jack without an adapter. However, if you connect a high-speed modem through the control unit, you may experience some degradation of efficiency and throughput, depending on the quality of the central office lines connected to the system.
Modems 2. If the modem will only dial outside the system, set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select outside lines first. If you also use the modem for calls within the system, set Automatic Line Selection to select intercom first, and include a 9 or a pool access code and a couple of pauses in the modem’s dialing sequence for outside calls. 3. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools assigned to extension X to No Ring. 4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned. 5.
Using Auxiliary Equipment To Program: 1. If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign one or more lines to extension X (including line A). If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove line A from all pools. Then use Pool Extension Assignment (#314) to assign pools to extension X. Also use Line Assignment (#301) to assign line A and any other individual lines to extension X. 2.
Night Service with Auxiliary Equipment Figure 4-11 shows a system with a fax machine and a modem connected to separate extensions. Line A is published as the fax line, and line B is published as the modem line. Lines Ext X A B CONTROL UNIT Ext Y FAX MODEM C Figure 4-11. Night Service with Fax Machine and Modem Using Night Service with Auxiliary Equipment During the day, lines A and B do not ring at extensions X and Y.
Using Auxiliary Equipment 2. Set Line Ringing for line A at extension X and for line B at extension Y to No Ring. 3. Make sure extensions X and Y are not assigned as Call Waiting (#316) extensions, Pickup Group Extensions (#501), Calling Group Extensions (#502), or Hunt Group Extensions (#505). 4. Assign a Night Service Button (#503) at extension 10. 5. Assign extensions X and Y to the Night Service Group (#504).
Voice Messaging Systems Delayed Call Handling Figure 4-12 shows a PARTNER MAIL VS system that provides delayed call handling. This setup allows the receptionist at extension 10 to provide personalized service by answering calls during normal business hours. The PARTNER MAIL VS system (connected to extensions Z1 and Z2) handles calls when the receptionist is busy or not available, so calls do not go unanswered.
Using Auxiliary Equipment To Program: The following list summarizes the PARTNER Endeavor Communications System programming procedures you use to implement the previous example: 1. Use Group Call Distribution (#206) to assign all outside lines to Hunt Group 7 (the VMS hunt group) to provide Automated Attendant Service on these lines. 2. Use Transfer Return Extension (#306) for extensions Z1 and Z2 to ensure that calls transferred by the PARTNER MAIL VS system return to extension 10 if they are not answered.

Group Call Distribution (#206) Group Call Distribution (#206) Description This System Programming procedure assigns outside lines to Hunt Groups. Doing so allows outside calls to ring directly into a Hunt Group instead of being answered and transferred by the receptionist. You can assign lines to Hunt Groups 1–7. (Hunt Group 7 is used exclusively for the voice messaging system.) Related Features ■ You must use Hunt Group Extensions (#505) to assign extensions to Hunt Groups.
Feature Reference Examples Here are some useful applications for Group Call Distribution: ■ Place the extensions of employees who work in a department in a Hunt Group and assign one or more outside lines to the group. Doing so lets outside callers ring the group directly without having to be transferred by the receptionist. For example, a mail-order company assigns the extensions of its sales representatives to a Hunt Group and assigns a line to the group.
Group Calling—Ring/Page (I7G/I*7G) Group Calling—Ring/Page (I7G/I*7G) Description This feature lets users ring, page, or transfer calls simultaneously to all of the extensions in any one of four Calling Groups (G is a Calling Group number from 1–4). When paging, the caller hears a beep and begins speaking; the caller’s voice is heard on the speakers of all idle system phones in the selected Calling Group.
Feature Reference ■ Put the extensions of people with similar responsibilities in a Calling Group, so when a caller needs to talk with anyone in the group, the receptionist can transfer the call to the group instead of making separate intercom calls. For example, a car dealership puts all extensions for the sales staff into Calling Group 1. To let a prospective customer talk to any salesperson, the receptionist simply transfers the call to the group by dialing & 7 1.
Group Calling—Ring/Page (I7G/I*7G) ■ To transfer a call to the Calling Group, while on a call, press the button programmed for ringing a Calling Group. You can hang up or stay on the line to announce the call. All available extensions in the Calling Group ring. To manually ring or page a Calling Group: 1. Lift the handset and press i.

The system supports up to seven Hunt Groups; however, Hunt Group 7 is used exclusively for the voice messaging system. Related Features for Hunt Groups 1–6 ■ For instructions on ringing or paging extensions in a Hunt Group or transferring calls to a Hunt Group, see Group Hunting.
Feature Reference line covered by the PARTNER MAIL’s Automated Attendant Service, the PARTNER MAIL system recognizes that it is a fax call and automatically transfers it to the first available fax machine in the group. Considerations for Hunt Group 7 This Hunt Group is used exclusively for the extensions associated with the voice messaging system hardware. Do not assign any other extensions to this group.
Intercom Dial Tone (#309) Intercom Dial Tone (#309) Description This System Programming procedure determines the type of dial tone that the system provides at an extension. It may be necessary to change this setting to Machine (outside line) dial tone for an autodialing device, such as a fax or modem, that has trouble making calls. For example, if you have a modem that checks for outside line dial tone before dialing, use this procedure to change from Regular to Machine dial tone.
Feature Reference Joining Calls Description Joining is adding yourself to a call in progress, the same way you do on a home telephone by picking up an extension. (This is different from conferencing, in which the originator “pulls you into” the call.) Up to three system extensions can join a call on an outside line (for a total of one outside and four inside parties). Related Features ■ You can use Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) to prevent other extensions from joining calls on a specific extension.
Joining Calls How to Join a Call System Phone A steady red light next to a line button indicates a call is in progress at another extension. To join a call: ■ Press the line button next to the steady red light and lift the handset, or ■ Lift the handset and press i 6 8and the two-digit line number.

Feature Reference Line Ringing Description This Telephone Programming procedure determines how each outside line or pool assigned to an extension rings. A line or pool can ring immediately, ring with a 20-second delay, or not ring at all. Delayed Ring is useful for backup coverage on shared lines or pools, such as for secretaries who cover each other’s lines.
Line Ringing Examples ■ Receptionist Call Routing. If you want calls to be answered by the receptionist first, set the lines at the receptionist’s extension to Immediate Ring and the lines at the users’ extensions to No Ring. ■ Receptionist Backup. If you want all calls on a line or in a pool to ring directly at users’ extensions—with the receptionist providing backup—set the line or pool at the users’ extensions to Immediate Ring. Then set the line on the receptionist’s extension to Delayed Ring.
Feature Reference Making Calls Description A user can make a call by dialing an outside phone number or an extension number. There are also several ways to speed dial a number—see “Related Features” below. Hybrid Mode Only ■ Making calls in Hybrid mode is the same as in Key mode except users can select a pool button rather than a line button to access an outside line. When a user presses a pool button, the system automatically selects an idle line belonging to the pool.
Making Calls ■ Users can ring any of the seven Hunt Groups or voice signal Hunt Groups 1–6. For more information, see Group Hunting—Ring/Voice Signal. ■ If Station Lock is used at an extension, users cannot dial outside numbers except marked System Speed Dial Numbers and numbers on the Emergency Phone Number List (#406). ■ If dialing restrictions are programmed for an extension, the system may prevent a user at that extension from placing certain calls.
