Assigned Personal Lines
Description
A personal line, also called a direct facility termination , is an outside trunk
assigned to a button on one or more telephones. A personal line can provide
either the shared or exclusive use of a specific trunk. In Hybrid/PBX mode, a
personal line allows users to receive outside calls without operator involvement.
When a personal line is assigned to more than one telephone, a principal user
of the personal line can be assigned through system programming. Assigning
the telephone as the principal user has the following effects:
If remote call forwarding is enabled for the extension, only the principal
user can forward personal line calls to an outside telephone number.
Calls received on the personal line follow the principal user's Individual or
Group Coverage patterns unless the personal line is set to No Ring.
Select a personal line to make or receive outside calls by pressing the
associated personal line button on a multiline telephone; a dial-out code is not
needed. When the line is in use, the green LED is on at all multiline telephones
that share the personal line. Inside calls cannot be made or received on a
personal line.
When two or more users answer the same call on a Shared SA or personal line
button, the red and green LEDs next to the button go on, but only one person
