3.3 CONNECTING THE VPS WITH PANASONIC KX-T SERIES PBXs74 Installation Manual5. Set the hunting type for the VPS extension groups to circular using System Program[101].6. At every VPS extension, temporarily connect an SLT or butt set, go off-hook and dial7301# to turn on Data Line Security. This prevents the KX-TA624 from sending ExecutiveOverride or Call Waiting tones to these extensions. We recommend that all Voice Mail portextensions have this feature enabled to avoid interruption of recording.7. Select the appropriate outside (CO) line feature settings depending on how yourcustomer plans to use the VPS: A) to answer all incoming calls, B) as an operator backup,or C) to only answer calls not answered by user extensions.Recommended outside (CO) line feature settings:a) If the VPS is answering all incoming calls:Outside (CO) Line Mode—Use System Programs [414] (Day Mode), [415](Night Mode), [416] (Lunch Mode) to set this parameter.
