Programming Secondary Extension Buttons - Inter-Tel AXXESS 8560 User Manual

P
ROGRAMMING
With the Secondary Extension Appearances feature, you can program various buttons
on your phone (and on the Mini-DSS) to indicate the call activity at a different exten-
sion (primary phone). In addition to being able to see when a call is ringing,
answered, or on hold, you can use your secondary extension button to answer a call
that is ringing at the primary phone. Your phone may also be programmed to ring
automatically when a given number of calls are waiting at the primary phone (ask
your system administrator).
There are two possible types of secondary extension buttons: programmable and non-
programmable. If you have a non-programmable secondary extension button, only the
system administrator can change the associated extension. If you have a programma-
ble button, you can change the extension, as described below.
NOTE:
You can only assign the extension for a secondary extension button. You can-
not create or change the secondary extension button (e.g., make it a feature button).
