Keyset Mode Operation Using the Dial Plan
If you map any telephone buttons that have status lights to specific
Analog Line Card ports, you enable Keyset mode in the system. Instead
of dialing a single digit (typically 8, 9, or 0) before placing an outside call,
the telephone user presses a button to select an available Analog Line
Card port. The telephone user defines the routing (that is, the selection of
a destination device) by pressing the button to select the Analog Line
Card port; however the system controls the call using the dial plan.
You cannot map a digital line extension in Keyset mode.
The system applies any Class of Service (CoS) restrictions that are
associated with the user's telephone to determine whether to make a
call. The system also uses any pretranslator that a device uses and
performs any required digit manipulation operations before it transmits
the digits on the Analog Line Card or Digital Line Card port.
Hybrid Mode Operation Using the Dial Plan
If you map telephone buttons for some telephones but not others, you
enable Hybrid mode (a mixture of standard and Keyset behaviors). The
system provides a system-wide External Prefix setting, which allows you
to establish a prefix.
