Default button assignments
Default features are assigned automatically to the programmable buttons 
on Norstar telephones and vary depending on the telephone. The default 
features are listed in the tables in this chapter.
Rules of default button assignment
Line and Intercom buttons are assigned by default templates and can 
be changed in programming. 
Handsfree/mute and answer DN buttons are not assigned by default. If 
these features are defined, however, they are automatically assigned to 
specific buttons, as described on this and the following page. 
None of these buttons can be assigned to M7100 or T7100 telephones.
The handsfree/mute feature appears on the bottom right-hand button 
on the M7310 telephone and the bottom button on the M7208 
telephone, moving the Intercom button(s) up one position. The 
Business Series Terminals have a separate mute button, which is 
located under the numeric dialpad, beneath the volume rocker button. 
The T7316E telephone also has a handsfree button beside the mute 
button, however, this button only works if the telephone is connected 
to a system that is version 6.1 or later.
Each telephone can have up to eight answer DN buttons. On the 
M7310 and T7316/T7316E telephones, they appear above Intercom 
buttons in the right column and continue up from the bottom in the left 
column, replacing the features on those buttons. On the M7208 and 
T7208 telephones, answer DN buttons appear above the Intercom 
buttons and below external line buttons in a single column.
External line buttons appear in ascending line order, starting at the top 
button in the left column of the M7310 Norstar and M7208 and T7208 
telephones. If more than five external lines are assigned to an M7310 
telephone, or more than 12 to an M7324 telephone, assignment 
continues down the buttons on the right column, erasing the features 
on those buttons. Line buttons have priority over feature access 
buttons but not handsfree/mute, intercom, or answer DN buttons.
The T7316 starts lines at button 01, which is the fourth button down, 
on the left side of the lower button set. 
The T7316E starts line numbering at button 09, which is the left top 
corner of the lower button set. Refer to the default charts for specific 
button placement for these telephones.

Moving line buttons
²¥¡Ú
You can move external lines to different buttons on your telephone to 
arrange your lines in the way that makes the most sense to you.   If you have 
a CAP, you cannot move intercom, answer keys or handsfree/mute buttons 
onto the module, but you can move your lines over to the modules. If you 
have a T7316E CAP with eKIMs you can move lines, target line 
appearances and hunt group appearances over to the KIM.

User Preferences
The User Preferences section of programming allows you to program 
memory buttons, speed dial codes and other settings for any Norstar  or 
BST telephone on the system.
For example, an employee may want to have the Do Not Disturb feature

code. Instead of programming from the employee’s telephone, you can go 
into programming on the telephone nearest you to make the change.
