Conditions
WARNING
There is a risk that fraudulent telephone calls will be made if a third party discovers a personal
identification number (PIN) (verified code PIN or extension PIN) of the PBX. The cost of such calls
will be billed to the owner/renter of the PBX. To protect the PBX from this kind of fraudulent use, we
strongly recommend:
a)
Keeping PINs secret.
b)
Selecting complex, random PINs that cannot be easily guessed.
c)
Changing PINs regularly.
• Extension PIN Lock
If the extension PIN is entered incorrectly three times, the line will be disconnected. If an incorrect PIN
is entered a preprogrammed number of times, the PIN will be locked. Only an extension assigned as a
manager can unlock a PIN, after which it will be reset.
This feature is also known as Station Password Lock.
• Remote Extension PIN Clear
If an extension user forgets his or her PIN, a manager can clear (reset) the PIN, and the extension user
can assign a new PIN.
• Extension PIN Display
It is possible to select whether to show the extension PIN on the display through system programming.
By default, it is shown as dots.
