Assigning Telephone Buttons
Behind Switch Mode
Use the following guidelines to assign buttons for a system in Behind Switch
mode.
NOTES:
For Behind Switch mode with multiline telephones:
The system software treats the ETR-6 and MLS-6 telephones as one type
of telephone. The default button assignments, however, are different.
Change the Prime button on the MLS-6 telephone to match the button's
assignment on the ETR-6 telephone.
You can assign additional lines and any outside lines connected directly to
the control unit, including special-purpose lines.
If a loudspeaker paging system is to be connected to the control unit,
include a programmed Loudspeaker Paging button to make
announcements over the loudspeaker system. To make an announcement,
users press the button and speak into the handset. They do not need to
dial the extension of the loudspeaker paging system.
For Behind Switch mode with single-line telephones, analog modems, fax
machines, or any other tip/ring device connected to an 012 (T/R), 016 (T/R), or
008 OPT module; or, for Release 7.0 and later systems, to a port programmed for
tip/ring operation on an 016 ETR or 412 LS-ID-ETR module; or to an MFM, you
can assign additional lines and any outside lines connected directly to the control
unit, including special-purpose lines.
