Copy Settings

The recommended way to set up your system is to program one extension for

each type of phone in the system, then use Copy Settings (#399) to program

other phones of the same type. For example, you can program one

PARTNER-18D phone and then copy its settings to any other extensions that

have PARTNER-18D or PARTNER-18 phones. See “Copy Settings” in Chapter 5

for a list of the programmed settings that are copied.

Changing Settings after Installation

As your business grows or changes, you will probably need to change the way

your system was originally programmed. This section provides some examples

and lists the procedures you would use to change settings after installation. For

specific details on a procedure, refer to the procedure name in Chapter 5.

Changing the System Clock

You may need to change the system clock for daylight saving time, after a

prolonged power failure, or after a system reset. Use System Date (#101),

System Day (#102), and System Time (#103) to set the current date, day, and

time.

Adding New Lines

If you add an outside line to your system, you may need to adjust some line

settings. In particular, use Dial Mode (#201) if the new line is a rotary line, Line

Assignment (#301) to assign the line to specific extensions, Line Ringing

(Centralized Telephone Programming) to specify when the line will start ringing

at each extension that has the line, and Line Access Restriction (#302) to limit

an extension’s access to the line. Additionally, the system automatically assigns

the new line as the last line in the Automatic Line Selection sequence. If you

want to change the order, use Automatic Line Selection (Centralized

Telephone Programming).

IMPORTANT:

Do not use Number of Lines (#104) if you add lines to the system after initial

setup, because it changes Line Assignment (#301), Line Access Restriction

(#302), Automatic Line Selection, and Line Ringing for existing lines back to

factory settings. To change line assignments without affecting other settings,

use Line Assignment (#301).

Adding New Extensions

If you add an extension to your system, you can probably use Copy Settings

(#399) to copy the settings of an existing extension. If you wish to further adjust

a new extension’s settings, see “Customizing Extensions” earlier in this chapter.
