Central Answering Position (CAP/eCAP)
A Central Answering Position (CAP) provides additional auto dial positions or additional line
appearances.
The CAP consists of a T7316E telephone and from one to nine key indicator modules (KIMs).
Each module provides 24 programmable keys with indicators. You can configure a telephone as an
eCAP that supports line appearances on the KIM buttons. You can add a maximum of four KIMs
(eKIMs) for a telephone configured as an eCAP A T7316E/KIM configuration not configured as
an eCAP can support up to nine KIMs. This configuration supports only memory button
programming. Adding a fifth KIM requires that you add a supplementary power supply.
See the CAP user card for instructions about using a CAP. For more information, see the Device
Configuration Guide.
Installing an emergency telephone
You can use the emergency telephone to make calls when no power is available to the BCM50
system.
You cannot connect an emergency telephone to a main unit. An emergency telephone can be
connected only to an expansion unit with a caller ID trunk module (CTM) or a global analog trunk
module (GATM).
To install an emergency telephone on the BCM50 system, connect a single-line analog telephone
to the auxiliary port on the CTM/GATM. When you make a call from the emergency telephone,
the auxiliary port uses the telephone line connected to the line 1 port of the CTM or GATM.
You can connect an emergency telephone to every CTM installed on your BCM50 system.
To install the emergency telephone
1
Connect a single-line analog telephone to the auxiliary port on the CTM or GATM.
2
Connect an analog PSTN line cable to the line 1 port of the CTM or GATM.
Note: Programming
The T7316E+eKIM does not support auto dial keys programmed with Hunt group
DNs.
