Conditions
CAUTION
There is a risk that fraudulent telephone calls will be made if a third party discovers a personal
identification number (PIN) (verification code PIN or extension PIN) of the PBX.
The cost of such calls will be billed to the owner/renter of the PBX.
To protect the PBX from this kind of fraudulent use, we strongly recommend:
a.
Keeping PINs secret.
b.
Selecting complex, random PINs that cannot be easily guessed.
c.
Changing PINs regularly.
•
Extension PIN Lock
If the wrong PIN is entered three times, the line will be disconnected. If the wrong PIN is entered a
preprogrammed number of times successively, that extension will become locked, and even entering the
correct PIN will not unlock it. Only an extension assigned as the manager can unlock it. In this case, the
PIN will be unlocked and cleared. This feature is also known as Station Password Lock.
•
Remote Extension PIN Clear
If an extension user forgets his PIN, a manager can clear the PIN. Then the extension user can assign a
new PIN.
•
Extension PIN Display
It is possible to select whether to show the extension PIN on the display through system programming. By
default, it is shown as dots.
