Line keys on a key telephone

This section explains the different options provided by your phone
when your system administrator has assigned one of more configu-
rable keys as KT line keys. KT line keys make your phone a key tele-
phone.
KT lines are the external line keys. A KT line is associated with a call distri-
bution element (CDE) number. External user can reach you on the KT line
using the Direct Dial In (DDI) number associated with the KT line. Contact
your system administrator for more information. One or usually multiple
phones can be connected to the KT line, for example, all employees in a
travel agency who work with Europe as a destination. The KT line key
belonging to the KT line shows the status of the KT line through the LCD
and allows you to accept calls which are made to this KT line. When there
is an incoming call on a KT line of a phone while the phone is engaged in
another call, an audio alert notifies you of the incoming call.
Your phone becomes a key telephone as soon as your system administra-
tor has assigned a KT line to a configurable key. With the configuration of a
KT line key, your system administrator can also set up a personal line on
which you can make your personal calls. All other function keys retain their
function.
You can make some changes in the KT line configurations through Self
Service Portal. You can activate the call list option and can give a name for
the KT line. You can also assign up to 15 ring melodies.
KT lines can only be configured on the top softkeys and the keys of the
expansion key module.
Note: You can assign up to nine priority levels to your line keys.
Answering a call on the KT line key
You are being called on one or more KT line keys. The KT line key(s) flash
quickly. You want to answer a call on a KT line key.
If you want to answer a call on another KT line key first, press this KT line
key in order to pick up the call. If you pick up the handset without pressing
a KT line key, you will be connected to the highest priority KT line.
Note: If an incoming call meets a busy KT line, the call is forwarded to the other
available KT line. Only if no more KT lines are free, your caller hears a
busy tone.
