Programming Secondary Extension Keys - Inter-Tel Axxess 8520 User Manual

P
ROGRAMMING
With the Secondary Extension Appearances feature, you can program various keys on
your phone (and on the Mini-DSS) to indicate the call activity at a different extension
(primary phone). In addition to being able to see when a call is ringing, answered, or
on hold, you can use your secondary extension key to answer a call that is ringing at
the primary phone. Your phone may also be programmed to automatically ring when a
given number of calls are waiting at the primary phone (ask your System Administra-
tor).
There are two possible types of secondary extension keys: programmable and non-
programmable. If you have a non-programmable secondary extension key, only the
System Administrator can change the associated extension. If you have a programma-
ble key, you can change the extension, as described below.
NOTE:
You can only assign the extension for a secondary extension key. You cannot
create or change the secondary extension key (e.g., make it a feature key).
To display the current secondary extension key assignment(s):
With the handset in the cradle, dial
1.
Press the secondary extension key(s) you want displayed.
2.
To assign a primary phone to a secondary extension key (if enabled):

number.
