meridian group hunt

[beefcrisps]

I've been asked to set up a group hunt and a group pickup on a meridain option 11/c but for the life of me cant find the correct overlays. If anyone out there can give me a step by step guide on how to do it, that would be great.
Cheers

First you need to set up a Hunt list where you put the extensions that will be in the group.

1. Find a spare list number.
LD 20
PRT
TYPE scl

Any list number not printed can be used as spare.

2. Create the new group hunt list in LD 18

REQ new
TYPE gpht
TYPE ght
LSNO xxx
dnsz (how long is DN)
SIZE (how many DN's in the list)
STORE 0 (DN number)
STORE 1 (next number)
etc etc until complete.

3. Create the pilot DN that is used to point call to the hunt group.

LD 57
CHG
TYPE FFC
CODE PLDN
PLDN xxxx (new unused DN)
USE GPHT
LSNO (the list number you already created)
HTYP (either LIN for linear, calls will hunt from the top of the list always, or RRB the next call in the list is always the first to ring)

CFWI (NO = skips a DN if call forward is active, YES = rings on station even though call forward active.
MQUE (0 if you dont want calls queing to the hunt list with ring tone even though all phone in the list are busy)



3. Lastly program every set to hunt to the new hunt group PLDN number, & VERY IMPORTANT ensure you have FNA set on each set even if you have FNA set to its own DN. Failure to do this will result in calls not tripping around the hunt list properly if a phone with FNA is not set.

In bluerigsby's reply step 1:

1. Find a spare list number.
LD 20
PRT
TYPE scl

From the output of this how do i determine a spare LSNO? Is SCL the correct type i am looking for or should it be something else?

Cheers

These are already created lists.
If you want to find out what TN's these are linked to try LD81 PRT Feat=scl.

Hope this helps

Sorry try lst (not Prt) feat=scl.
