PERMISSIONS
A local extension can be restricted. If so, it will require an access code before an outside phone
number can be dialed. For example, you can configure the lobby phone to require an access
code. The receptionist can provide an access code to visitors, as required. However an access
code is not required to answer a call, dial an emergency service number or place an intercom
call.
To use an access code, pick up a local extension and dial the hunt group. If an access code is
required, the TalkSwitch system will prompt you for the access code. Enter the access code,
followed by #. If the access code is accepted, the TalkSwitch unit makes a telephone
line available.
Enable password protection when access codes are used. Change the system password
frequently to prevent unauthorized users from making calls or changing the configuration.
See Administration on page 27.
The Permissions page allows you to set up access codes for up to 150 people. You can restrict
