Forced Authorization
With the Forced Authorization feature, the system 
will prompt you to enter a personal identification 
number (PIN) to temporarily authorize you to call an 
outside number from a telephone with limited calling 
capabilities. Forced Authorization remains in effect 
only until you hang up. When you make another 
external call, the system will prompt you for your PIN 
again.
Whether you are required (forced) to enter your PIN 
to make an external call depends on the class of 
service of the telephone you are using, the number 
you have dialed, and the route the CBX uses to con-
nect you with a trunk (outside line).
To call an 
outside number 
when a PIN is 
required
➩
Get a dial tone.
➩
Dial 9 and the outside number.
Listen for the confirmation tone, followed by 
the external dial tone.
➩
Dial your PIN.
You will hear the confirmation tone.
Note
You can also dial your PIN before you dial 9 and the 
outside number. It will then stay in effect as you dial 
outside numbers, until you deactivate it.
The steps required to do this are the same as those 
described for activating and deactivating your PIN in 
“Remote Authorization” on page 7–19.
