Considerations
• If a new code is programmed into a key, the previously programmed code is erased.
• FF keys assigned as CO lines must be cleared using system programming before new FF
assignments can be made.
• The System can be programmed so that MCO 1 Trunk Access calls automatically use Automatic
Route Selection (ARS).
• The ANSWER key functions as listed in the table below.
• The RELEASE key functions as listed in the table below.
