3.3 CONNECTING THE VPS WITH PANASONIC KX-T SERIES PBXs54 Installation Manual6. Set the hunting type for the VPS extension group to circular using System Program [09].7. 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-T123211D from sendingExecutive Override or Call Waiting tones to these extensions. We recommend that allVoice Mail port extensions have this feature enabled to avoid interruption of recording.8. At every user’s extension, go off-hook and dial 7192#. This sets the proper Follow-on IDsequences so that forwarded calls go directly to the extension’s mailbox. The KX-T123211D automatically sends the extension’s digits to the Voice Mail port beforeconnecting the caller.For Follow-on ID to work:• Ports connected to the VPS must be assigned as Voice Mail ports.• Extensions must be forwarded to the first port of the Voice Mail (using the Busy/No Answer mode or the All Calls mode).• The mailbox number should be the same as the extension number.Interaction with other features:• Call Forwarding—If the extension is forwarded to an extension that is alsoforwarded, the forwarding will not work.• Call Hunting—Hunting does not interfere with Follow-on ID.• Call Transfer—Calls transferred to an extension with Follow-on ID and callforwarding enabled will be forwarded directly to the mailbox.• Data Line Security—We recommend that all Voice Mail port extensions havethis feature enabled to avoid interruption of recording by Executive Override toneor Call Waiting tone.9.
