							7.5 Entering Authorization Codes
Authorization codes give you awalking class of serviceoption.
Walking class of serviceprovides you with the mobility to use
your class of service (COS) features, prime line assignments,
and exception numbers on any telephone in the system. This
means that you will not be limited by features that are available
to the particular telephone that you happen to be using.
Authorization codes are associated with your personal
intercom number and are assigned to you by your installer
when he or she programs the system. When you enter your
assigned authorization code at any system telephone, the code
alerts the system to make your normal features available to
you. This means that you can use the telephone for anything
allowed by your personal intercom number; however, you
cannot disturb the last number redial stored there by the normal
user. Once you access your telephone features, they remain in
effect until any idle time exceeds the authorization code
time-out period.
If your telephone includes an installer-programmedLOCK
button, you can press it and then dial your authorization code
to deny other users access to lines and features at your
speakerphone.
·To activate walking class of service,
1. Select system telephone to use.
2. PressINTERCOM.
3. Dial#08.
4. Dial your authorization code.

your telephone to another telephone. You can forward just your
