Introduction
Your Business Communications Manager telephone system has many features that you can
customize to keep up with changes in your workplace.
Unified Manager
Unified Manager is the tool used to program settings for the system telephony features, and
settings for each telephon e and external li nes. Multiple levels of prog ramming are a ccessible
through Unified Manager. You access the Business Communications Manager Unified Manager
from your web browser. For more information about navigation and making selections using
Unified Manager, see the Business Communications Manager Programming Operations Guide.

Name a telephone or a line
Chapter 1 Introduction23
You can assign names to identify external lines, target lines, and your colleagues’ telephones.
During a call, the name (if programmed) appears on the telephone display instead of the external
line number or internal telephone number of the caller. You need to start a Unified Manager
session to progra m this f eatur e. F or mo re inf ormati on about progra mming u sing Uni f ied Mana ger,
see the Business Communications Manager Programming Operations Guide.
Telephone names and line names can contain both letters and numbers, but cannot be longer than
seven characters. You cannot use the # and * symbols.
Note: You can give the same name to a telephone and a line in your system. Use
initials, abbre v iati ons, or e ven nicknames to give each t elepho ne a un ique na me t o
avoid confusion.
Extension numbers
Each telephone in the system has an extension number. The length of extension numbers in your
system can range from two to seven digits. All numbers in your system are the same length. Your
installer assigns the length of extension numbers, called the extension length. The default
extension length is three.
To find out your internal number, use the Button Inquiry feature (≤•‚) from an intercom
button. On the T7100 telephone, Button Inquiry shows your internal number followed by the
function assigned to the memory button.
Telephone Features Programmi ng Guide
24Chapter 1 Introduction
Line assignment
You can assign any of the lines in your system to any of your telephones. Your installer assigns
lines to telephones. Assignments for lines are:
•appear only
•appear and ring
•ring only
Lines assigned to a telephone automatically have a line button on that telephone, when a button is
available. The T7100 telephone has no line buttons.
Prime line
You can program your telephone to select an internal, or external line, or a line pool automatica lly
when you lift the handset. This is your prime line.
Private line
A priv at e lin e is limit ed to a sele cted t eleph one. You can pick up calls put on hold, or not ans were d
on a private line, only at the prime telephone.
Target line
A target line routes a call directly to a selected telephone, or group of telephones. Target lines are
only for incoming calls. A single incoming li ne can provide connections to sev eral diff er ent target
lines. Target lines allow each person or department in the office to have their own number without
having a separate external line for each number.
Overflow call routing
If a call comes in to a target line that is busy, the system routes the call to the prime telephone for
that target line. If there is no prime telephone assigned to the target line, or if you cannot direct a
call to a target line, the call goes to the prime telephone for the external line.
Overflow routing for incomin g calls uses the r o uting servi ce programm ed by your instal ler.
Service must be active for overf low routing to operate. Overf low routing is no t available in normal
service.
P0937240 02
Note: When you make a call and the programmed route is busy, you hear the
expensive route warning tone and see a display indicating the use of an expensive
route. To avoid using the normal, expensive route, release your call.
Because overflow routing directs calls using different li n e pools, a call might be
affected by different line filters.
Telephone buttons

differen t types of Nortel Networks telep hones. See “Telephone buttons” on page 25.

Answer calls
There are three indications of an incoming call:
•ringing
•a line button flashing
•a message on the display
You do not always receive all three indications for any distinct call. For example, you can have a
line set up not to ring at your telephone. If so, you see only a flashing line button. There are many
possible combinations, depend ing on your system set up. For more informatio n abo ut the use of
lines, see “Line buttons” on page 42.
Ring types
There are several different types of ring.
29
A double beep e v ery t en seco ndsA call is camped to your telephone.
A long single ringThere is an external call on the li ne for you.
A shorter double ringThere is an internal call on the line for you, or a call
is being transferred to you.
A brief single ringA call arriving on an external line is redirected to a
telephone outside of your system. You cannot
answer this call.
Three beeps descending in toneYou are receiving a priority call.
Distinctive Line Ring
There are four Distinctive Ring patterns (DRP) for incoming calls.
When more than one call rings at a telephone, highest propr ity DR P rings through first.
