6.10.1

Automatic line seizure (menu 16 11) for optiset telephones only

Automatic line seizure only applies to optiset and optiset E terminals (not optiset E entry). Here,
all lines are automatically preassigned to an extension (possible only if a single route is
specified). When the numeric keys on a system telephone or an abbreviated dialling key is
pressed, the selected line is automatically seized.
Attention: when changing the initial setting of this parameter, keep in mind that it is possible to
dial the wrong number with the optiset memory if route numbers have been incorrectly
programmed!
6.10.2

Route assignment (menu 16 12)

This is where one of four routes (1–4) is assigned to an external line (analogue trunk or ISDN
B-channel). All ports can be assigned to the same route (route 1 is entered as default for all
external lines). A line cannot be assigned more than one route, however. The default codes for
routes 1–4 are 0, 84, 85, 86. The automatic line seizure feature must be deactivated.
6.10.3

Overflow route (menu 16 13)

Assigns a route an "overflow option" in the form of another route. If all the lines of a route are
busy, all additional requests for lines are diverted to the route defined here.
6.10.4

Trunk/PBX line type (menu 16 14)

This setting serves to determine the further processing of supplementary lines features (for
CorNet-N, also includes name and features transfer). Flash time for analogue trunk: PBX =
short, trunk = long.
6.10.5

Route names (menu 16 15)

Names can be entered for the 4 routes via the alphanumeric keypad. Once assigned, the name
appears in the display instead of the corresponding number ("route 1, 2, 3 or 4"). For example,
if the name assigned for route 2 = Office A, the words "Office A" appear in the display when
route 2 is dialled if no extension number is transferred.
6.10.6

Route codes (menu7 22 4)

Each route can be assigned up to 10 codes on the basis of the extension number plan (max.
3-digit).
