ICM for Intercom Prime Line.  (Software version 02.01.07 or higher is 
required to enter 2-digit key numbers.)Step-by-step guide for setting up Prime Line 
Preference 
Step 1: Should an extension have Prime LIne Preference?
• In Program 1807 - Prime Line Key (page 554), 
enter the line/loop key that will be the extension’s 
Prime Line. For Intercom Prime Line, press 
ICM 
instead of a line key.
• In Program 1807 - Prime Line Key (page 554), 
enter 0 (no assignment).
Step 2: Designate the function of the Prime Line Key (except for Intercom Prime Line).
• In Program 1701 - Switched Loop Key 
(page 517), assign the Prime Line Key as a 
Switched Loop Key (code 01).
     OR
• In Program 1701 - Fixed Loop Key (page 517), 
assign the Prime Line Key as a Fixed Loop Key 
(code 02 + Trunk Group 0-8).
     OR
• In Program 1701 - Line Key (page 518), assign 
the Prime Line Key as a Line Key (code 03 + 
Trunk number 1-48 in DS2000, 1-6 in DS1000).

Direct Inward Line (page 118)
If an extension’s Prime Line is another extension’s DIL, lifting the handset will answer the 
call even though it does not ring the phone.
Direct Station Selection (DSS) (page 125)
(U Slot) With Intercom Prime Line, an idle extension user hears Intercom dial tone whenever 
they lift the handset or press 
SPK. Since each extension’s Busy Lamp Field is disabled by 
default in U Slot, the Programmable Function Keys do not go into the DSS mode when the 
user lifts the handset.
Off-Premise Extensions / On-Premise SLT Extensions (page 274)
On- and off-premise extensions cannot use Prime Line Preference.
Ringing Line Preference (page 319)
Prime Line Preference overrides Ringing Line Preference. For example, if you lift the hand-
set while a call is ringing your phone, you seize your Prime Line instead of answering the 
ringing call.
Feature Operation
To place a call on your Prime Line:
To bypass your Prime Line, press another key (e.g., a line or loop key) before lifting the 
handset.
1. Lift the handset.
2. Dial call normally.

Privacy
Description
An extension with Privacy blocks incoming Barge In attempts, and Call Waiting (Camp-On) sig-
nals. Privacy helps extension users that don’t want their conversations interrupted.
Note that if an extension with Privacy enabled is on a call with an extension with Privacy disabled, 
they are still subject to Barge In attempts and Call Waiting signals to the non-private extension.
Conditions
None
Default Setting
Privacy disabled in an extension’s Class of Service.

							Privacy Release Groups
DS1000/2000 Software ManualChapter 1: Features297
Privacy Release Groups
Description
You can program extensions into Privacy Release Groups to simplify sharing trunk calls. Co-work-
ers in the same Privacy Release Group can easily join another group member’s trunk call just by 
pressing the busy line key. The co-worker immediately joins in unannounced and uninvited. Privacy 
Release Groups are a quick alternative to Conference where control over the Conference is not 
required. In a Customer Service group, for example, a supervisor could just press a busy line key to 
monitor any agent’s call.
If desired, an extension user can prevent other members of their Privacy Release Group from inter-
rupting their active call. This ensures that group members will not interrupt confidential calls.
Any number of extensions can be in the same Privacy Release Group. However, an extension can 
only be in a single group. Members of the Privacy Release Group must have line keys and access to 
the trunks they want to share.
Privacy Release Groups utilizes a Conference circuit. The following table shows the Conference 
capacities:
The system’s 32 Conference circuits are dynamically allocated as users request them.

							Private Line
300Chapter 1: FeaturesDS1000/2000 Software Manual
Private Line
Description
A Private Line is a trunk reserved for a keyset for placing and answering calls. A user with a Private 
Line knows when important calls are for them. Additionally, the user has their own trunk for plac-
ing calls that is not available to others in the system.
There are three types of Private Lines:
Incoming Only
The keyset has a Private Line only for incoming calls. The user cannot place a call on the Pri-
vate Line. A customer service representative may want an incoming only Private Line to be sure 
customers can always get through.
Outgoing Only
The keyset has a Private Line only for outgoing calls. The Private Line does not ring for incom-
ing calls. A service dispatcher may want an ougoing only Private Line so they can always get in 
touch with field technicians.
Both Ways
The keyset has a Private Line for both incoming and outgoing calls. An executive may want a 
both ways Private Line that is available only to them for placing and answering calls.
You can optionally set up shared Private Lines between a group of co-workers that work closely 
together.
Conditions

sure that only the extension with the Private Line 
has a line key for the trunk (code 03 followed by 
the trunk number 1-48 in DS2000, 1-6 in DS1000).

In 
Program 1704 - Line Key (page 528), option-
ally assign the Private Line to a key on the DSS 
Console (code 01 followed by the trunk number 
1-
48 in DS2000, 1-6 in DS1000
).
• In Program 1803 - Extension Line Access Assign-
ments (page 546), make sure that the extension 
with the Private Line is the only phone that has 
access to the trunk. See step 3 below for the spe-
cifics.
• In Program 1701 - Line Key (page 518), assign 
line keys (code 03 followed by the trunk number 
[1-48 in DS2000, 1-6 in DS1000]) for all exten-
sions that will share the Private Line.
