Mappings
Button Mappings allow you to place features, such as speed dial numbers
and shortcuts, on telephone buttons for individual telephones or for
telephone groups. In addition, you can use Button Mappings to map CO
telephone lines to buttons and set up your system in one of these modes:
■ Key Mode system — In Key Mode, all outside lines map to individual
buttons on users’ telephones. You can share lines by assigning one
line to multiple telephones. Incoming calls ring on all telephones that
have that line assigned. Any of those telephones can answer the call.
■ PBX (Private Branch eXchange) system — In a PBX system, outside
lines are pooled and arbitrated by the Call Processor. To call an outside
number, a user must dial the line pool access number, typically 9, and
the Call Processor assigns the next available line.
■ Hybrid Mode system — In hybrid mode, some lines are assigned as
keyed lines, while the rest are pooled.
You must use NBX Business Telephones to operate the system in key
mode or hybrid mode. NBX Basic Telephones operate in PBX mode only.

personal settings to it.
