For CT2Plus systems, use different system names. For outgoing calls, users
need to know where each system name is used. Portables in CT2Plus systems
must be set on "scan all systems" to receive incoming calls. This is set by the
installer.
If the PCI systems have different names the users must know the system names
to make or receive any calls. The systems may all use the same name if there
are no multi-system users.
Plan a multiple system for a single site with the following guidelines:
• Use the smallest number of systems required to serve the site.
