Greetings. I'm looking at a Norstar 3x8 DR1 for a residence. Can't find a feature list. Does DR1 support disconnect supervision? Anyone know where I can find a feature list? Thanks! Mike

Used to work for MTS (multi-tenant systems). 3 Locations. Our switches were in the basement and we would re-sell dial-tone. I'm sitting on an Option81c/CS1000 that I picked up for free, just to get it out of the way for their new VoIP; and I don't know what the big draw is. New wiring, every...

Well I finally got it to work; and apparently the "D" is necesary. Initially after I programmed the darn thing I would hear the Menu that I set-up at the primary store. Not knowing the digits it was dialing, added to the mystery. If I programmed my cell phone into the string, it worked...

Thank you all for writing. Supervision is turned on. Link works fine when done manually from a phone. A successful Hook-Flash Transfer needs a termination after the digits are dialed. Where does the hang-up come from? After the digits are dialed, does CP automatically terminate the call? Maybe...

Call Pilot External Transfer Not Working. MICS and Call Pilot 150 - Don't know versions. It was working before the blackout, but that was 2 years ago and I programmed it through the phone. I have since added a network cable. After I set the IP and the Mask, I tried logging in through Firefox...

Nortel4Ever wasn't even part of the thread, but yet he came across as an extremely sensitive authoritarian eager to mix it up and admonish people he doesn't even know. I'm a naturally curious person and I always want to know why. I'm sorry if that offends you I've been a Nortel tech since the...

I wasn't arguing with anybody; in fact I was agreeing with @curlycord. Don't know why your panties are in a bunch... please explain.

I'm going to try MICS Centrex Software and see if i can get it to work. I really want to use the link feature instead of a line in and another line out... the Church only has 3 lines. Thanks all for your input!!!

Yes, but the MICS would not know the difference between a Centrex Trunk or a Loop Start Trunk. Centrex doesn't even show up in the XC 71. Software; is that the key/secret? So still the question persists... Why won't the Link (F71) command work on the MICS; it works on the phones to transfer a...

Note that this will take up 2 lines for the duration of the call therefore only somebody special should have the capability. That's just the point... I was hoping to use Dial Out: F71, but it will only accept F7 and no more digits can be added. Why couldn't Norstar make this easy like the...

Greetings! Norstar MICS 7.1. Client would like to call forward her extension (not line) to her cell. Familiar with F4 and F84, but neither works. Need a bump. Thanks! Mike

Thanks for that Phoneguy!!! Don't know how it got switched. I never use the Call Pilot Interface. Thanks! Mike

Solution Found!!! I've even tried "Outbound Transfer" to an extension and when I press 7, Voicemail says... you have started to enter a message command. Your choices are... 0 Message option 1 Reply 2 Play Envelope 3 Forward 4 Reply All 5 Compose 6 Delete 9 Send How can Voicemail use 7 as the...

Impossible or not, I've included the picture. I'm using an inside phone 7316e and I'm calling the AA from Line 3. When Line 1 answers, I dial my extension (314) and my 7316e display reads unassigned. I thought it was referring to the Attendant being Unassigned, but the Attendant has been...
