following procedures can be performed only when the entire system (every line
and every extension) is idle:
Select system mode
Identify system operator positions
Renumber system
Renumber boards
Identify telephones with voice signal pairs for the Voice Announce to Busy
feature
Identify telephones that need voice and data features
Restore system programming information
Identify the Music On Hold jack
When the system is forced idle, the following occurs: multiline telephone users
hear a signal, indicating that the telephone cannot be used; display telephone
users see the message
hear a dial tone.
Line or Trunk Idle
Because these procedures require the line or trunk to be idle only at the instant of
programming, the line or trunk is not forced idle (as described in the previous
paragraph). The following procedures can be performed only when the line or
trunk being programmed is idle:
Identify loudspeaker paging extension jack
Assign trunks to pools
Specify incoming or outgoing DID or tie trunk type
