Stand-alone Modem for Placing Calls Only
A modem and a terminal allow you to dial out and connect to computer bulletin
boards and other data services. This setup, which lets you dial out but not receive
calls, is shown in Figure 4-11. Note that the telephone is optional and can be used
if you want the terminal to share an extension with a phone.
To Use
Follow the modem manufacturer’s instructions.
To Program
1. If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign
one or more lines to extension X.
If extension Y is a pooled extension, use Pool Extension Assignment
(#314) to assign the pools you want the modem to use to extension X. Also
use Line Assignment (#301) to assign any individual lines you want the
modem to use to extension X.
2. If the modem will only dial outside the system, set Automatic Line
Selection for extension X to select outside lines first. If you also use the
modem for calls within the system, set Automatic Line Selection to select
intercom first, and include a 9 or a pool access code and a couple of
pauses in the modem’s dialing sequence for outside calls.
3. Set Line Ringing for all lines and pools assigned to extension X to No
Ring.
4. Set Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to Assigned.
5. Make sure extension Y is not assigned as a Call Waiting (#316) extension,
Pickup Group Extension (#501), Calling Group Extension (#502), Night
Service Group Extension (#504), or Hunt Group Extension (#505).
6. Set the auto answer feature of the modem to Off.
