3. Press CHANGE and enter the number of target line 
appearances.
4. Press ¨ to exit or ‘ to continue programming.
Tips - Press SCAN to view the lines assigned to this 
telephone.
In general, auto-answer loop start trunks, auto-answer E&M 
trunks and DID trunks are not assigned to telephones. If 
assigned, they are used for monitoring incoming call usage, or 
for making outgoing calls (auto-answer loop start and E&M 
trunks).
In general, fixed data channel trunks are not assigned to 
telephones. If assigned, they are used for monitoring call 
usage.
You cannot assign a line that is private to another telephone.
Each line assigned to appear at a telephone must appear at a 
button with an indicator on that telephone. The m aximum 
number of line buttons are eight for the M7208 telephone and 
T7208 Business Series Terminal, 10 for the M7310 telephone 
and T7316 Business Series Terminal, and 24 for the M7324 
telephone.
If you set a line to Ring only, incoming calls appear on an 
intercom button.
A central answering position (CAP), with one or two CAP 
modules, can provide extra line buttons if more than 24 lines 
are assigned to the CAP. The remaining lines appear at 
buttons on the CAP module. This option is only available on 
the M7324 telephone
Tips - The M7100 and T700 sets have no line buttons and 
can be assigned any number of lines. Ensure that the lines 
assigned to these sets are assigned to ring; otherwise, you 
cannot detect incoming calls on the lines.

Line pool access
This setting allows a telephone to access one or more of the 15 
line pools available (A to O). When you assign a given line 
pool, the telephone being programmed can access any lines in 
that line pool.
Press  ≠, then press ‘ to scroll through the 
settings and display the line pool you want to program access 
to. Press CHANGE
 to select the setting: N (No) and Y (Yes).
Four exclusive line pools are available for PRI lines for 
profiles 1 and 4, which support two on-core DTI cards and one 
off-core DTI card (Off-core DTI card on page 201). There can 
be a maximum of two on-core DTI cards (PRI) on a Norstar 
system, regardless of profile. Th e four possible line pools are 
PRI-A, PRI-B, PRI-C, or PRI-D. 
Profiles 2 and 3 only support PRI line pool A and B.
Only PRI lines can belong to a PRI pool. PRI lines cannot 
belong to Line Pools A through O. 
All lines on a single DTI card (PRI) belong to the same 
pool. 
Lines from multiple DTI cards (PRI) can belong to the 
same pool if they are configured with the same protocol. 
PRI lines are assigned to pools with the Line type setting.

Prime line
This setting assigns a prime line to the telephone. A prime line 
is the first line that is automatically selected when the handset 
is lifted. 
Press CHANGE
 to select one of these settings: None, Pool (A to 
O), or I/C (intercom). Only assigned lines and line pools 
appear. 
PRI pools are not valid selections for a Prime line. 
Tips - An assigned prime line is not associated with the 
assignment of a prime telephone.
An external line must be assigned to the telephone in 
Line assignment before it can be assigned as the prime 
line to the telephone.
A line pool must be assigned to the telephone in line pool 
access before a line pool can be assigned as the prime 
line to the telephone.
A target line cannot be a prime line for a telephone 
because it is incoming-only.
A DID line should not be assigned as the prime line for 
a telephone. If assigned, it is treated as if no prime line 
has been assigned. The message
 Select a line 
appears when the receiver is lifted.
Remember that if you set prime line to I/C (intercom), you may 
wish to assign loop start lines to the first line pools. When the 
system searches for an outgoing line, it begins at line pool A 
and chooses the first available line.
By assigning a line pool as a prime line, a telephone can be 
made to search automatically for an idle line in a pool. This is 
described in the section on programming Line type (
Trk/
Line Data
).

Intercom keys
This setting assigns the number of intercom buttons to a 
telephone. Intercom buttons provide a telephone with access to 
internal lines and line pools. 
Press CHANGE
 to select the setting: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.
Answer DNs
Calls for other Norstar telephones or Business Series 
Terminals can appear and be answered at the telephone being 
programmed. The DNs of the other telephones are referred to 
as Answer DNs.
This is commonly used when twinning Companion cordless 
handsets to allow mobile users to have one phone number that 
reaches them either at their desk or elsewhere within radio 
range.
Tips - Each intercom button assigned during 
programming automatically appears on the telephone. The 
buttons start with the lower right-hand button, or one button 
above if the Handsfree/Mute feature is assigned to the 
telephone.
A telephone needs two intercom buttons to be able to establish 
a conference call with two other Norstar telephones.
Only one intercom button may be required if the button will 
only be used to make and receive internal calls, and to access 
line pools.
Two intercom buttons are required if a telephone has several 
lines assigned to ring only.
The M7100 and T7100 sets default assignment of two 
Intercom buttons be changed to up to eight buttons. These 
buttons do not appear on the telephone.

1. Press  ≠ and enter the Answer DN. 
2. Press CHANGE
 to change the setting for the Answer DN: 
Unassigned, Appr&Ring or Appr only.
3. To assign additional Answer DNs, press  ‘, then 
enter the next Answer DN.
OLI #
Some ISDN devices may require the network Called Number 
digits, called the outgoing line identification (OLI), to be able 
to accept a call. The OLI as called # parameter permits the 
OLI digits to replace the internal DN digits of the ISDN device 
during call setup. To enable this capability, set the OLI as 
called # parameter to Y for all DNs used by the device.
1. At Terminals&Sets, press ≠ and enter the 
ISDN set number.
The set displays 221:221.
2. Press ≠ twice to reach Line Assignment.
Tips - Press SCAN to view the Answer DNs assigned to 
this telephone.
Every Answer DN assigned to the telephone automatically 
assigns an Answer button with an indicator to the telephone. 
These buttons should be labeled accordingly, identifying the 
telephone with its name or DN.
The maximum number of Answer DNs that can be assigned to 
a particular set is eight.
More than one telephone can have an Answer button for the 
same DN. In this way, more than one telephone can provide 
call alerting and call answering for any calls directed to that 
DN.
When a call to a Norstar set is received via Call Forwarding, 
the Answer DN for that set will not alert.

3. Press ‘ until the display shows OLI as called 
#:N.
4. Pres CHANGE
 to select Y to allow for OLI substitution.
5. Press the ¨ button to exit programming.
For PRI, the OLI# is based on the set number. However, when 
you make an outgoing call on a BRI line, the Call Display 
information which appears on the telephone you are calling is 
usually based on the first Network DN associated with the 
service profile identifier (SPID) and line.
If the SPID and line have more than one Network DN, you can 
program a DN to use a Network DN other than the first one for 
the outgoing Call Display information. When you program the 
alternate Network DN as the 10-digit OLI number, and you 
make a call using the line associated with the Network DN, the 
OLI number appears on the telephone you are calling.
If an outgoing call is made using a SPID and line that are not 
associated with the Network DN number used as the OLI 
number, the network ignores the number and the default 
Call Display information is displayed. This is the first or only 
Network DN associated with the SPID and line.
1. Press CHANGE
 and enter the 10 digits used for the OLI.
2. Press CLR
 to choose None.
Note:  If your system is equipped with a mixture of digital line 
cards, program the sets to use line pools when making 
calls. If line pools are not properly configured, a set 
may use a line with a network range that does not 
include the set  CLI, causing the network to present an 
incorrect CLID to the called party .

ATA settings
Analog terminal adapters (ATA or ATA2) are used to connect 
analog equipment to a digital trunk line. This section describes 
the settings that are required for setting up the connection.
ATA ans timer
A timer can be used to administer a delay between the last digit 
you dial on a device connected to an ATA and when the 
system begins to send out DTMF or modem tones on the 
outgoing line without capturing and interpreting them. 
To change the delay time, press CHANGE
 to select the setting (in 
seconds): ATA ans timer: 3, 5, 7, or 10. 
Intrusion
Protect lvlDetermine the level of access this 
telephone will have to allow the user to 
break into calls on other telephones in the 
system (MCDN Break-in feature).
To be able to use Break-in, the Protect lvl 
must be the same or higher  than that of the 
target telephone.None, Low, 
Medium, 
High
Tip - To accommodate the device attached to the ATA, you 
may need to change the delay. If a modem or fax machine is 
attached to the ATA, you will want to keep the delay short. If a 
call to a fax machine or modem cannot be connected, try 
shortening the delay. If an individual is dialing the number for 
a fax machine or modem, you may want to make the delay a 
little longer.
