0501 - System Numbering; Description - NEC 28i System Manual

Description

Use Program 0501 - System Numbering to set the system's internal
(Intercom) numbering plan. The numbering plan includes the digits an
extension user must dial to access features and other extensions. If the
default numbering plan does not meet the site requirements (i.e., you
cannot make room numbers be the same as telephone extension num-
bers), use this program to tailor the system numbering.
Improperly programming this option can adversely affect
system operation. Make sure you thoroughly understand
the default numbering plan before proceeding. If you must
change the standard numbering, use the tables that follow
to keep careful and accurate records of your changes.
Before changing your numbering plan, make a backup
copy of your system's data. Use the extra disk shipped
with your system to make the backup copy.
Changing the numbering plan consists of three steps:
1. Enter the digits you want to change.
2. Specify the length of the code you select to change.
3. Assign a function to the code selected.
Step 1: Enter the digit(s) you want to change
You can make either single or two digit entries. In the Dialed
Number column in the table beginning on page 4-12, the nX rows
(e.g., 1X) are for single digit codes. The remaining rows (e.g., 11, 12,
etc.) are for two digit codes.
Entering a single digit affects all the Dialed Number entries begin-
ning with that digit. For example, entering 6 affects all number
plan entries beginning with 6. The entries you make in step 2 and
step 3 below affect the entire range of numbers beginning with 6.
(For example, if you enter 3 in step 2 the entries affected would be
600-699. If you enter 4 in step 2 below, the entries affected would
be 6000-6999.)
Entering two digits lets you define codes based on the first two
digits a user dials. For example, entering 60 allows you to define
the function of all codes beginning with 60. In the default pro-
gram, only * and # use two-digit codes. All the other codes are
single digit. If you enter a two digit code between 0 and 9, be sure
to make separate entries for all the other two digit codes within the
range as well. This is because in the default program all the two
digit codes between 0 and 9 are undefined.
In the PC Program, the nX entry is for single digit codes. For
example, 6X is for all codes between 600 and 699.
