Introduction
How To Use This Chapter
This chapter provides detailed information on the system’s features. The features in this chapter are in alphabetical order, like a dictionary, and are subdivided into headings as follows:
❥Description
Read Description to get an overview of the feature. Along with the feature’s description is the Default
Setting, which outlines how the feature works with the default (factory installed) programming. When
initially installed, the system uses the default setting. For specific default settings on each programmable
option, follow the cross-reference to that option.
❥Programming
This heading provides a handy, easy to understand, step-by-step guide to the system programming
required to activate and/or customize the feature. If you need more detail about an option, follow the
cross-reference to that option.
❥Related Features
Read Related Features to learn how the feature interacts with other features.
❥Operation
Refer to this heading for convenient, compact, yet detailed operation charts for using each feature.

Account Codes
Account Codes
Description
Use Account codes to categorize and/or restrict outside calls.
Account Codes are user-dialed codes that help categorize and/or restrict outside calls. Account Codes are
from 2-10 digits long, using any combination of the digits 0-9. There are three types of Account Codes:
❥Optional (Unforced Account Codes)
❥Forced Account Codes
❥Verified Account Codes
Optional (Unforced) Account Codes
Optional Account Codes allow a keyset extension user to enter an Account Code while placing an outside
call or any time while on a call. This type of Account Code is optional: the system does not require the user
to enter it. If the keyset user is already talking on an outside call, their conversation continues uninterrupted
while they enter an Account Code.
Single line telephone users can only enter an Account Code while placing their outside call.
Forced Account Codes
Forced Account Codes require an extension user to enter an Account Code every time they place an outside
call. If the user doesn’t enter the code, the system prevents the call. The system can require Forced Account
Codes for all outside calls, or just for toll calls (as determined by Toll Restriction programming). Note that
Forced Account Codes do not pertain to incoming calls.
Verified Account Codes
With Verified Account Codes, the system compares the Account Code the user dials with a list of codes pro-
grammed into the Verified Account Code Table. If the Account Code is in the table, the call goes through
(provided it is not prevented by an extension’s Toll Restriction programming). If the code is not in the table,
the system prevents the call. Verified Account Codes, if enabled, apply only to Forced Account Codes.
Using Account Codes and Speed Dial
To simplify Account Code operation, Personal and System Speed Dial bins can contain Account Codes.
Keep the following in mind when using Speed Dial and Account Codes:
❥The Account Code can be either the first or last entry in the bin, and must be preceded and followed by
the # character. For example, the Account Code 1234 must be entered as #1234#.
❥1551-02: Allow Account Codes in Speed Dial Bins (page 667) must be enabled in system programming:
❥The Speed Dial bin can contain an Account Code followed by an outside number, or just the Account
Code. The Account Code must be preceded and followed by a # entry. If the bin contains just the
Account Code, the user must be sure to press the bin key before dialing the outside number.
❥If the system has Verified Account Codes enabled, the Account Code entered in the Speed Dial bin must
match an entry in the Verified Account Code Table.
❥If the Speed Dial bin does not contain an Account Code, the user must enter the Account Code manually.
If Forced Account Codes are enabled, the system requires
the user to enter the Account Code before it
outdials the stored Speed Dial number.
❥An extension user can preselect a line for a Speed Dial call.
Using Account Codes with Last Number Redial and Save
Last Number Redial and Save do not store Account Codes. This means that the user must manually enter an
Account Code to have it included with a call dialed using Last Number Redial and Save. If Forced Account
Codes are enabled, the system requires the user to enter the Account Code before it outdials the stored number saved by Last Number Redial or Save.
14◆FeaturesDSX Software Manual
An extension user can preselect a line for a Last Number Redial or Save call.
Account Codes and Emergency Calls
Account Codes are never enforced for emergency (911 and 1+911) calls.
DSS Console Account Code Key
A keyset user can have an Account Code key on their DSS Console. It works the same as a keyset Account
Code key.
Conditions
• Do not use Account Codes that begin with 911 or 1911.
Default Setting
• Account Codes disabled.

Attendant Call Queuing
Attendant Call Queuing
Description
Attendant Call Queuing helps minimize call congestion in systems that use the attendant as
the overflow destination for unanswered calls.
An unlimited number of callers can queue for the attendant. The callers hear ringback while they wait for the
attendant to answer — not busy tone. If you have the attendant as the overflow destination for Direct Inward
Lines, for example, unanswered DILs will “stack up” at the attendant until they are answered.
Operator Call Key
The last Feature Key on an attendant telephone is permanently assigned as an Operator Call key. When the
operator has Intercom calls waiting to be answered, the calls queue under this key. The key winks (on) when
calls are queued.
The Operator Call key is a permanent assignment for all extensions assigned as operators. You cannot
change this assignment. Attendant Call Queuing is a permanent, non-programmable feature.

The attendant is the focal point for call processing within the system. The system can have up to four attendants. In addition to the features of a standard keyset, the attendant also has the following unique capabilities
(refer to the respective feature for details):
❥Attendant Call Queuing (page 22)
Incoming Intercom calls from co-workers queue for the attendant. The callers never hear busy tone.
❥Barge In (Intrusion) (page 36)
The attendant can break into another extension user’s established call. This option is enabled in the attendant’s Class of Service (COS 1).
❥Direct Line Access (page 115)
Direct Line Access lets the attendant user dial a code to access an individual line. This option is enabled
in the attendant’s Class of Service (COS 1).
❥Forced Line Disconnect (page 182)
In an emergency, the attendant can release (disconnect) another user’s active outside call. This option is
enabled in the attendant’s Class of Service (COS 1).
❥Line Queuing / Line Callback (page 230)
The attendant can Camp-On (queue) for a busy line. This option is enabled in the attendant’s Class of
Service (COS 1).
❥Night Service / Night Ring (page 252)

attendant’s Class of Service (COS 1).
❥Removing Lines and Extensions from Service (page 287)
The attendant can remove problem lines from service —then return them to service once the problem is
corrected. This option is enabled because the attendant has Direct Line Access enabled in their Class of
Service (COS 1).
The attendant should use a 34-Button Display or 34-Button Super Display Telephone. In addition, most
attendants should find a DSS Console helpful when processing calls.

Automatic Slot Configuration
Description
Automatic Slot Configuration
The system automatically installs PCBs when you power up the system.
Automatic Slot Configuration automatically sets up station and line PCBs when you initially power up the
system. This simplifies installation because you don’t have to use system programming to activate station
and line PCBs after you plug them in.
Here’s how Automatic Slot Configuration works:
1. With power off, install your station and line PCBs.
2. With the system powered down, install the station and line PCBs from left to right in the order you want
your extension and line numbers set up.
• Be sure to install a 16ESIU PCB in the first slot (CN1).
• You don’t have to group your station and line PCBs together, although it may be more convenient to
do so.
3. Power up the system.
4. On power up, the system scans the PCBs from left to right and sets up the extension and line numbering
as follows.
• Extension numbers will begin with 300 in the first slot and increment from left to right.
• Line numbers will begin with 101 (starting from the first installed line PCB) and will also increment
from left to right.
System reset does not cause reconfiguration. Automatic Slot Configuration is temporarily disabled during a
system reset.
Programming
1.Optionally reconfigure station PCBs after the initial installation.
1. Use 120x-Stations (page 611) to reconfigure your station PCBs.

Background Music
Description
Broadcast music through the telephone speaker for a more pleasing work environment.
Background Music (BGM) sends music from a customer-provided music source to speakers in keysets. If an

external music source connected to one of two audio input minijacks.
❥In DSX-40, the audio input minijacks are located on the equipment cabinet.
❥In DSX-80/160, the audio input minijacks are located on the CPU PCB.
The external music source you connect to the audio input minijacks is typically a CD player or FM receiver.

Battery Backup
Battery Backup
Description
The system provides permanent backup of system memory.
In the event of commercial AC power failure, the NAND Flash memory on the CPU PCB permanently maintains the site database. Additionally, an internal battery on the CPU provides short-term backup of the system date and time (Real Time Clock) and certain station parameters (such as the Caller ID log). The battery
will hold the Real Time Clock and station parameters for up to 10-14 days. When commercial AC power is
restored, the system restarts with all programming and the time and date intact.
Additional Battery Backup capability can be provided by a customer-supplied Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). The length of time the UPS will power the system when power fails depends on the capacity of
the UPS unit. Consult with the UPS manufacturer for the specifics. Refer to the Hardware Manual for addi-
tional details.

Call Coverage Keys
Call Coverage Keys
Description
Call Coverage keys allow an extension user to cover a co-worker’s calls from their own telephone.
A keyset can have Call Coverage Keys for a co-worker’s extensions, Ring Group master numbers and UCD
Group master numbers. The Call Coverage Key lights when the co-worker’s extension is busy, flashes slowly
when the co-worker has an incoming call, and flashes fast when the co-worker is in Do Not Disturb. The Call
Coverage Key can ring immediately when a call comes into the covered extension, ring after a delay or not
ring at all. In addition, the keyset user can press the Call Coverage Key to intercept their co-worker’s incoming call. They can also go off hook and press the Call Coverage key to call the covered extension. An extension can have as many Call Coverage Keys as they have available Feature Keys on their telephone.

Call Forwarding
Call Forwarding
Description
Call Forwarding ensures that the user’s calls are covered when they are away from their work area.
Call Forwarding permits an extension user to redirect their call to another extension. The types of Call Forwarding are:
❥Call Forwarding when Not Answered
Calls ringing the extension forward when not answered.
❥Call Forwarding when Busy or Not Answered
Calls ringing the extension forward when not answered, and all calls forward while the extension is busy.
❥Call Forwarding Immediate
All calls to the extension forward immediately.
You can set up Call Forwarding to reroute all calls or just outside calls. If an extension with forwarding set
for outside calls only receives a screened Transfer, the initial voice-announcement broadcasts at the extension. When the caller hangs up to complete the transfer, the outside call forwards as programmed.
Call Forwarding Chaining
Extension user’s can chain Call Forwards. For example, extension 301 can forward all calls immediately to
304, which in turn can forward all calls immediately to extension 302. Any co-worker calling 301 or 304
goes to 302 instead. If extension 302 is Call Forwarded to voice mail, callers to 301 or 304 go directly to
302’s mailbox.
Call Forwarding Cancel
Call Forwarding cancel allows a keyset user to dial a code to simultaneously cancel all Call Forwarding system-wide. The extension must have access level 4 or 5 set up in 2102-04: User Programming Access Level
(page 725).
Call Forwarding Key
A keyset user can have a key on their telephone or DSS Console assigned as a Call Forwarding key.

Call Forwarding Off Premises
Description
Call Forwarding Off Premises
When a user is out of the office, they can send their calls to their home office or cell phone.
Off Premises Call Forwarding allows a keyset user to forward their calls to an off-site location (such as a cell
phone or remote office) if allowed by their Class of Service. Keyset users can stay in touch by having Off
Premises Call Forwarding automatically forward their calls while they are away from the office. To set up
Off Premises Call Forwarding, the user selects the line or Line Group over which the call should route, as
well as the number the system should dial. The number dialed can be from an extension’s Personal Speed
Dial bin containing an outside number, or the user can enter an outside number directly into their Personal
Speed Dial bin 720. When a call rings the forwarded extension, the system selects the specified line or group
and then outdials the stored number.
Off Premises Call Forwarding reroutes:
❥Intercom calls
❥Transferred calls
❥Direct Inward Lines
❥UTRF (unscreened transfer) calls routed from the voice mail Automated Attendant
❥Circular and Terminal Extension Hunting calls
Off Premises Call Forwarding does not reroute:
❥Key Ring calls
❥Calls to a UCD Group master number.
❥Group Ring calls (i.e., calls to a Ring Group master number)
❥UCD Group Calls (i.e., calls to a UCD Group master number)
❥Ringing Call Coverage key calls
Features
You can set up Off Premises Call Forwarding to reroute all calls or just outside calls. If an extension with
forwarding set for outside calls only receives a screened Transfer, the initial voice-announcement broadcasts
at the extension. When the caller hangs up to complete the transfer, the outside call forwards as programmed.
Call Forwarding Off Premises Example
Call Routes to Emergency Service Number After Hours
A service department dispatcher has Key Ring for lines 1-4 during the day. The dispatcher answers calls on
those lines and assigns dispatchers accordingly. At night, the calls on lines 1-4 must automatically route to
the technician on call for emergency service. To do this:
1. In 3112-01: Direct Termination in the Day (page 819), make sure lines 1-4 are assigned as Key Ring
lines (by pressing CLEAR).
2. In 3112-04: Direct Termination at Night (page 820), terminate lines 1-4 directly to the dispatcher’s
extension (e.g., extension 300).
3. At the dispatcher’s extension, program a Personal Speed Dial bin for each technician that is qualified to
take emergency calls.
4. At the end of the day, the dispatcher presses their System Night key to put the system in the night mode.
5. After enabling the night mode, the dispatcher implements Off Premises Call Forwarding to whichever
Speed Dial bin represents the technician on call for that evening.
6. Calls ringing lines 1-4 at night automatically route to the technician on call.
Conditions
• Telco must provide Loop Disconnect Supervision on the originating line (i.e., the line that Off Premises Call Forwarding will reroute).
• All other Speed Dial programming also applies to Off Premises Call Forwarding.

Call Forwarding Off Premises
• An extension Speed Dial number stored in bin 719 should not be longer than 16 digits. If it is, the system automatically clears bin 719 when it stores an Off Premises Call Forwarding number in bin 720.
• An extension user cannot off premise call forward to a Personal Speed Dial bin that contains an Intercom number. If the user selects a bin that contains an Intercom number, the system cancels Off Premises Call Forwarding.
• Off Premises Call Forwarding is cleared after a system reset or power down.
• If a line rings an off-premise forwarded extension and the specified outbound route is busy, the system reroutes the call to the programmed overflow destination (normally Key Ring). Intercom callers
will hear busy tone if the outbound route is busy, and have the option of dialing 2 for Line Queuing
or Line Callback.
• Tandem Calling must be enabled for the originating line (i.e., the line that Off Premises Call Forwarding will reroute).
- If a screened Transfer is made to an extension with Line Only forwarding, and Tandem Calling is
not enabled for the originating line, the transferred line immediately goes to Key Ring when the
transferring party hangs up.
- If a screened Transfer is made to an extension with All Calls forwarding, and Tandem Calling is not
enabled for the originating line, the transferred line will stay at the transferring extension when that
party hangs up.
• Off Premises Call Forwarding is not available at single line telephones.
Default Setting
• Call Forwarding Off Premises is disabled in an extension’s Class of Service.
• Tandem Calling is disabled for lines.

Call Timer
Description
Call Timer
Call Timer helps users that must keep track of their time on the phone.
Call Timer lets a keyset user with a Call Timer key time their outside calls on the telephone display. There
are two types of Call Timer keys:
❥Manual Call Timer
Any time while placing a call or while on a call, a display keyset user can press their Manual Call Timer
key to start the Call Timer. The Call Timer will continue until the user hangs up or presses their Manual
Call Timer key again.
❥
Automatic Call Timer
In addition to the features of the Manual Call Timer key, the Automatic Call Timer key provides automatic
timing for outside calls. When a display keyset with an Automatic Call Timer key places or answers an outside call, the Call Timer automatically starts when that outside call connects. The Automatic Call Timer
does not automatically start for Intercom calls. The Automatic Call Timer can also work like a Manual Call
Timer key. There is no need to have a Manual and Automatic Call Timer key on the same phone.
The Call Timer feature also provides:
❥Review of Previously Timed Call
Any time after hanging up from a timed call, a display keyset user can press their Manual or Automatic
Call Timer key to review the duration of that call.
❥Timer Reset for Current Call
While the display keyset user is timing their call, they can press CLEAR at any time to reset the Call
Timer to 00:00:00.
❥Automatic Timer Stop
The system assigns the Call Timer to the active call. When the user terminates the active call, the Call
Timer automatically shuts down.
❥
Wrap-up Timer Display
After hanging up a timed call, a display keyset will show the Call Timer data for 6 seconds before returning
the display to idle. This gives the extension user adequate time to make a record of the timed call, if desired.

Call Waiting / Camp-On
Call Waiting / Camp-On
Description
Call Waiting helps busy extension users know when they have additional waiting calls. It also
lets callers wait in line for a busy extension without being forgotten.
With Call Waiting, an extension user may call a busy extension and wait in line (Camp-On) without hanging
up. When the user Camps-On (by dialing 2), the system signals the busy extension with two beeps indicating
the first waiting call. (The busy extension can be on a handset or Handsfree call.) The call goes through when
the extension becomes free.
If an extension has more than one caller waiting, they queue on a first-in/first-out basis (FIFO). The extension will not hear Camp-On beeps for additional waiting calls.
Off-Hook Signaling also alerts the user when unanswered calls are waiting to get through. Turn to Off-Hook Signaling (page 255) for more.
The following chart shows when the two types of Off-Hook Signaling occur. Note that Camp-On tones occur
for an extension when they are the exclusive recipient of the call (such as a DIL).

Callback
Description
Callback
With Callback, a user does not have to repeatedly call a busy extension back, hoping to find it idle.
When an extension user calls a busy co-worker, they can leave a Callback request for a return call. The system services Callback requests as follows:
❥Caller at extension A leaves a Callback at extension B.
- Caller can place or answer additional calls in the mean time.
❥When extension B becomes idle, the system rings extension A. This is the Callback ring.
❥Once caller A answers the Callback ring, the system rings (formerly busy) extension B.
- If caller A doesn’t answer the Callback ring, the system cancels the Callback.
❥As soon as caller B answers, the system sets up an Intercom call between A and B.
An extension user can leave a Callback at many extensions simultaneously. The system processes the Callbacks as the extensions become free. In addition, many extensions can leave a Callback at the same extension. The system processes these Callbacks on a first-in/first-out (FIFO) basis.
If an extension user leaves a Callback request and then fails to answer within four rings, the system cancels
the Callback.
Conditions
• A system reset or power failure cancels all Callbacks system-wide.

Caller ID
Description
Single and Multiple Message Format Compatibility
Caller ID on the SMDR Report
Caller ID
Caller ID automatically displays the phone number and optional name for incoming outside calls.
Caller ID allows a display keyset to show an incoming caller’s telephone number (called Directory Number
or DN) and optional name as the call is ringing. Caller ID supports the telco’s Called Number Identification
(CNI) and Called Number Delivery (CND) service, when available. These services provide the Caller ID
information (i.e., messages) between the first and second ring burst of an incoming call.
Caller ID provides the following features:
There are two types of Caller ID message formats currently available: Single Data Message Format (SDMF)
and Multiple Data Message Format (MDMF). With Single Message Data Format, the telco sends only the
caller’s phone number (DN). The DN can be up to 10 digits long. In Multiple Data Message Format, the
telco sends the DN and the caller’s name. The DN for this format can be up to 15 digits long, and the name
provided can consist of up to 15 ASCII characters.
If no DN is received, no number or error message displays.
Caller ID data prints on the SMDR report. SDMF records print a single line which shows just the incoming
number. MDMF records print on two lines, with the first line showing the number and the second line showing the name. Unlike the telephone display, the SMDR report can show the entire 15 digits in the DN, if
required.
Features
Following is a sample SMDR report showing Caller ID data. The first two lines of the report show a complete MDMF record with both the caller’s number and name. The last two lines of the report show two Caller
ID error messages: Private Number and Out of Area. The “IN” in the type column indicates that the records
shown are for incoming calls.
If no DN is received, no number or error message displays.

Caller ID Integration with Voice Mail
Caller ID fully integrates with IntraMail, UltraMail, and the NVM-Series voice mail systems. This enables
voice mail features such as Make Call with Caller ID. Make Call allows the voice mail subscriber to return a
call to someone who left them a message without knowing the calling party’s phone number.
Second Call Caller ID (Extension Level Call Waiting Caller ID)
While a display keyset user is busy on a call, the system can show the Caller ID information for a waiting
call. If the busy extension is programmed to receive Camp-On tones or Off-Hook Ringing from the waiting
call, the system will send the Caller ID data to the busy telephone’s display. If the busy extension does not
receive Camp-On tones or Off-Hook Ringing, it will also not receive the waiting call’s Caller ID. (Note that
Caller ID data from a Camp-On is displayed only once, corresponding to the single Camp-On beep.) This is
an internal system feature and does not use the telco’s Call Waiting Caller ID.

Caller ID
Third Party Caller ID Check
Caller ID Display Separator
Caller ID to Single Line Telephones
Third Party Caller ID Check allows an idle or busy keyset user to display the Caller ID data for another line.
The line that the user checks can be ringing or busy.
An extension’s display can optionally show a calling party number separator. The separator is a dash after
the area code and after the local exchange on a 7 or 10 digit number. If disabled, the calling party number
displays without a separator.
The system provides Caller ID data to single line ports. This allows single line Caller ID telephones to
receive the Caller ID data also available at keysets. Up to 8 single line telephones can receive Caller ID data
simultaneously. (To conserve system resources, consider turning off Caller ID in 1404-01: Caller ID Display
(page 638) for extensions that do not require or support Caller ID.)
On Intercom calls, the single line telephone display will show the extension number and name (if programmed) of the internal caller.

• If an extension is set up to receive Off Hook Ringing, it will receive Second Call Caller ID for each
new outside call. The display returns to idle when the second call stops ringing.
• If an extension is set up to receive Call Wait beeps, it will receive Second Call Caller ID only for the first
call. This occurs, for example, for DILs and transferred outside calls. With transferred outside calls, the
Second Call Caller ID displays until the call recalls the transferring destination (if not picked up). With
DILs, the Second Call Caller ID displays remains until the extension activates another feature.

Caller ID Logging
Caller ID Logging
Description
An extension can store the caller’s name and phone number for easy review and redialing.
When caller ID is enabled, Caller ID Logging stores a record of the caller’s number and name (if provided
by the telco) for each outside call that rings an extension. This allows an extension user to easily review and
redial their calls. The system can log records directly to an extension or to one of 8 Caller ID Logging
Groups. All the extensions in the same Logging Group share the same Caller ID records. Each extension or
Logging Group can store up to 99 Caller ID records. The system stores up to 1000 Caller ID records, allocated among all extensions and Caller ID Logging Groups. All Caller ID records are retained when the system is powered down or reset. If a line rings more than one extension simultaneously, the system logs the
call at all ringing extensions.
Caller ID Logging also provides:
❥Programmable Caller ID Callback Routing
You can set up Caller ID Callbacks (return calls) to select either a line or Line Group to redial calls
allowed by the extension’s Toll Restriction. Caller ID Callback Routing can also optionally:
- Strip the area code from the number dialed.
- Strip the leading 1 from the number dialed.
- Add a leading 1 to the number dialed.
❥Soft Key Integration
Unique Caller ID soft keys provide the extension user with the capability to view all of their Caller ID
records or just records for unanswered calls. Super Display telephone users can additionally view
records of answered calls.
❥Save Number to Speed Dial
While reviewing a Caller ID record, the extension user can optionally store the number and optional
name directly in an Extension Speed Dial bin.
❥New Record for Calls on Hold and Parked Calls
The system creates a new Caller ID record for a call retrieved from Hold at an extension other than the
one that initially placed it on Hold. The same is also true for Parked calls.
- A new call rings the system and creates a CID record.
- Extension 301 answers the call and places it on Hold.
- Extension 302 retrieves the call from Hold.
- The system creates another record of the call at extension 302.
❥New Record for Transferred Call
A transferred call creates a new call record each time it is transferred. For example:
- A new call rings the system and creates a CID record.
- Extension 300 answers the call and transfers it to extension 301.
- The system creates a new (answered) record for the call at extension 301.
- Extension 301 transfers the call to extension 302.
- The system creates another new (answered) record for the call at extension 302.
❥Answered Status for Calls Answered at Analog Ports
Calls answered by keyset (digital) and single line (analog) extensions are marked as answered. Calls
answered by voice mail ports are not marked as answered.
❥Record Created for Voice Mail Park and Page
If a call is placed in Personal Park Orbit by voice mail, the system creates a record for the call on the
extension at which it is parked, and at the extension that picked up the call. (Note that there is no record
created at the voice mail port.)
68◆FeaturesDSX Software Manual
Types of Calls that are Logged
Call ID Logging will make a record of any outside call to an extension that can normally be answered using
Ringing Line Preference. These include:
❥Line key (Key Ring) and Loop Key calls
❥Transfers
❥Direct Inward Lines (DILs)
❥Group Ring calls
Caller ID Logging
Caller ID and Answering Machines
If voice mail is not installed, Caller ID Logging can provide unique handling of a customer-provided
answering machine. If an extension is designated as an answering machine in programming, any outside call
picked up by the answering machine will not be marked as answered in the Caller ID log. For example, if a
call rings into the system and is picked up by the answering machine, it will show as a new call in the Caller
ID log. In addition, it will flash green on the Ring/Message lamp indicating that there is a new call.
Conditions
• None
Default Setting
• There is no Caller ID outbound line/group specified.
• There is no home area code specified. In addition, all local calls are 7 digits long.
• In DSX-40, all keyset extensions (300-315) are in Caller ID Logging Group 1. Since all keysets share
a common group log, deleting a record at one keyset will automatically update the log for all others.
• In DSX-80/160, extensions 300-315 are set up for personal logging with 10 records each. There are no
records assigned to other extensions.
• Caller ID Logging Group 1 can store 99 records. All other groups are blank.
• All lines are assigned to Caller ID Logging Group 1.
• The Caller ID Alert Lamp is enabled.
