Line Preference Ð Incoming (No Line / Prime Line / Ringing Line)
DescriptionA PT user can select the method used to answer incoming calls
from the following three line preferences:

No line is selected when an extension user goes off-hook to
answer a call.  He or she must press a desired Line Access
button to answer an incoming call.
(2) Prime Line Preference 
An extension user can assign a prime line beforehand and
answer a call ringing on that line simply by lifting the hand-
set, even when multiple calls are ringing on his or her
extension simultaneously.
A Prime Line can be selected from the following line access
buttons.

ICM, S-CO, G-CO, L-CO

PDN, SDN, S-CO, G-CO, L-CO
(3)Ringing Line Preference(default) 
An extension user can answer the call ringing at his or her
extension simply by going off-hook.
Conditions¥ Setting a new line preference feature cancels the previous setting.
¥ If ÒPrime Line PreferenceÓ is selected, an incoming call coming from a
line other than the prime line cannot be answered just by going off-
hook. To answer the call, the extension user must press the flashing
button associated with the ringing line.

If ÒRinging Line PreferenceÓ is selected, going off-hook does not
answer a line programmed for Òno ringÓ even though there is an incom-
ing call.  Going off-hook during the delay time does not answer a line
programmed for Òdelayed ringing.Ó  
¥ 
An SLT is fixed to Ringing Line Preference mode.
