Program 32 Automatic Preference

Program 32 Overview

This program defines whether, internal dial tone, or which Exchange line, a digital or
electronic telephone will automatically select when the telephone handset is taken off-hook,
or the 6SNU button is used.
The Intercom, lowest Exchange line, or Line Group is selected only if the telephone is not
ringing when it is taken off-hook (no 6SNU pressed). If a telephone is ringing, the [PDN]
Auto Preference, or outgoing Exchange line is cancelled. In this case, no selection is made if
Ring Line Preference is disabled; the ring line is selected if Ringing Line Preference is
enabled.
With Ringing Line Preference, a digital or electronic telephone user, by, going off-hook (or
by pressing the 6SNU button), may be automatically connected to the lowest line ringing in,
without having to press an Exchange /LQH button or dial an access code.
If no lines are ringing and an electronic or digital telephone goes off-hook, the station can be
automatically connected to Intercom or to a line. The line connected can be the lowest
numbered line available on the telephone or the highest idle line from a selected group.
Notes
Strata DK40 Programming Manual Spring 1999
Program 32 does not apply to standard telephones. To allow system features to be
accessed, standard telephones always receive system internal dial tone when
originating calls.
If ringing line preference is not selected, no auto preference selection will occur
when a station goes off hook during an incoming ring condition.
For DKT2001-F handsets, ensure DATA=101.
