Dial Mode (#201)
Use this feature to identify individual lines as touch-tone or rotary. Check with your local telephone 
company if you are not sure which type of line is being provided to you.
Considerations

If you are having difficulty using touch-tone telephones on rotary lines, you may need to adjust 
the Rotary Dialing Timeout (#108).

If the system has rotary lines, you can use Touch-Tone Enable (F08) to send touch-tone 
signals over a rotary line...

account code before they can dial outside calls. Setting up forced account codes involves two 
features: Forced Account Code Entry and, optionally, Forced Account Code List.

Considerations

Extensions can be in more than one Calling Group. In addition, you can assign all extensions 
in the system to one group–this helps in making paging announcements to all employees.

Do not assign extensions that connect auxiliary equipment (auto attendants, voice messaging 
systems, fax machines, answering machines, hotline telephones, or doorphones) or

If a ringing call to the Hunt Group is not answered within three rings, the call moves to the 
next available extension in the Hunt Group. If users in the Hunt Group leave their desks, they 
should turn on Do Not Disturb at their extensions so calls hunt immediately to the next 
available extension.

Hunt Group calls are not eligible for Call Coverage or VMS Cover.

For instructions on making outside calls ring directly in a Hunt Group, see “Group...

Group Call Distribution (#206)

directly into a Hunt Group instead of being answered and transferred by the receptionist. You can 
assign lines to Hunt Groups 1—7. (Hunt Group 7 is used exclusively for the voice messaging 
system, and Hunt Group 8 is used for fax transfer and detection.)
