Tie Lines

In DSX-80/160, link two systems together for inter-system Intercom calling and other features.
Tie lines directly link a local DSX-80/160 telephone system with one or more remote DSX-80/160 systems.
The link is independent of the telco's switched network. When a local system user seizes a tie line, they hear
Intercom dial tone from the remote system. The user can then use many of the features normally available to
the remote system's single line telephones, including:
Dialing Intercom extensions in the remote system.
Using the remote system's lines for outgoing calls.
Accessing System Speed Dial bins in the remote system.
Using the remote system's Paging.
Tie Lines require a T1 PCB and Tie Line service from the telco.

Time and Date

The Time and Date shows on telephone displays and prints on system reports.
The system Time and Date appears on display telephones and Station Message Detail Recording reports.
The system administrator can change the time and date from the system programming mode. In addition,
extension users can change the time and date from the User Programmable Features. Although the data is
entered in 24-hour format, it always displays in 12-hour format (e.g., 1300 = 1:00PM). The system can auto-
matically adjust the time for Daylight Savings Time.

Toll Restriction

Use Toll Restriction to help you control the costs of outgoing long distance calls.
Toll Restriction limits the numbers an extension user may dial. By allowing extensions to place only certain
types of calls, the system administrator can control long distance costs. The system applies Toll Restriction
according to an extension's Toll Restriction Level. For each of the 7 Toll Restriction Levels, the administra-
tor can enable or disable the following options.
Active Key Pad (Continuous Dialing)
Active Key Pad continuously enables the telephone key pad. This is important if co-workers typically
use dial-up services (such as automated banking) or frequently dial into voice mail systems. With Active
Key Pad disabled, the system disables the telephone key pad 6 seconds after the user has dialed their last
digit. Toll Restriction controls Active Key Pad for both incoming and outgoing calls.
N11 Dialing
N11 Dialing enables or disables an extension's ability to use N11 services such as directory assistance
(411) and repair (611). Consider enabling this option if the connected telco charges by the call (i.e.,
meters) these services. Note that the system never restricts a user from dialing 911 or 1 + 911.
0 + Dialing
0 + Dialing enables or disables an extension's ability to manually dial 0 + (operator assisted) calls. These
calls typically include collect calls and credit card calls. Be sure to disable this option if you don't want
co-workers making these types of calls. The setting of 0 + Dialing does not affect the operation of inter-
national dialing (see the option immediately following).
International (011) Dialing
Use the International Dialing option to restrict extension access to high-cost international (011) dialing.
You can, for example, enable international dialing for high priority users and executives while disabling
international dialing for all other co-workers.
Equal Access (1010 + XXX) Dialing
Equal Access allows users to select long distance carriers other than your primary carrier. Your primary
