Moving line buttons
You can move external lines, hunt group appearances, and 
target line appearances 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

speed dial code. Instead of programming from the each 
specific set, you can go into programming on the telephone 
nearest you to make the change.

Use the line pool code to select a particular line pool for use 
with Speed Dial. If you select Use routing tbl, a line or pool 
is chosen by the routing programming according to the initial 
digits in the number.
The route you choose for a User Speed Dial code must be one 
that the telephone can use. For example, if the telephone does 
not have access to Line Pool B and you use that pool code with 
the speed dial code, the code does not work.  Lines and line 
pools are assigned to the telephones by the system 
administrator. Refer to the Modular ICS 6.1 Installer Guide 
for details.

Programming Hunt Groups
The Hunt Groups feature allows a group of Norstar or BST 
telephones to be called by a single directory number ensuring 
that calls are easily routed to the appropriate group.
Hunt Groups are used in situations where a group of people 
performing the same task are required to answer a number of 
related phone queries. Some typical uses of Hunt Groups are:
a sales department answering questions on product prices 
or availability
a support department answering questions concerning the 
operation of a product
an emergency department answering calls for help.
Hunt Groups can be used to route calls to a support service 
such as a Help Line for a software company. Specialists 
dealing with Product A can be in one group, and specialists 
dealing with Product B can be in another group. Incoming 
calls hunt for the next available telephone in the group. If no 
telephone is available, the call can be placed in a queue or 
routed to telephone designated as the overflow set.
The Incoming Line Group (ILG) functionality is now 
accomplished through the Hunt Group feature. 
When upgrading from a pre-Modular ICS 4.0 system 
to a Modular ICS 6.1 system, any lines previously 
belonging to an ILG are not automatically converted 
to broadcast Hunt Groups. You must go in and 
program them to the new feature. Please refer to 
Assigning or unassigning lines to a group on page 
173. 
						

							170 / Programming Hunt Groups
Modular ICS 6.1 System Coordinator Guide P0603535  02
The Hunt Groups subheading in system programming is the 
area where programming changes are made to the following:
members of a group
member position in a group
what lines are assigned to a group
how incoming calls are distributed
how long the system looks for available members
where a call goes if all members are busy
Note:  Videophones should not be programmed as members of 
a Hunt Group. Hunt Groups allow one B channel 
connection at a time and videophones use two B 
channels.
Features affected by Hunt Groups include:
Call Forward All Calls
Call Forward No Answer
Call Forward on Busy
Group Pickup
Transfer via Hold
Priority Call
Line Redirection
Page Zones
Voice Call
