Adding Lines, Pools, and Extensions
As your business grows or changes, so do your needs for your PARTNER ACS.
As you upgrade to newer releases, you must program for new features. As you
expand, you can add lines, pools, and extensions to your system.
Adding New Lines
How you add new lines to the system depends upon the type of extension you
are adding them to.
Key Extensions
You can add individual lines to pooled extensions or add new lines to key
extensions (all extensions in Key mode; in Hybrid mode, extension 10 and any
extensions set to Key by using Line Access Mode (#301) are key extensions.)
If you add a line to your system, you may need to adjust some line settings:
• Dial Mode (#201) if the new line is a rotary line
• Line Assignment (#301) to assign the line to specific extensions
• Line Ringing (Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when the
line starts ringing at each extension that has the line
• Line Access Restriction (#302) to limit an extension’s access to the line
If you replace a module with a different type, be sure you check the
telephone and line connections and verify system and telephone
programming. In many cases, you may need to rearrange the
connections and/or change telephone or system programming.
