Hi!
All phones that are plugged into the system are automatically assigned an extension. This is a good thing, and it keeps life simple. When you have a specific line assigned to a phone, all it means is that you have the phone programmed to appear and ring on that particular phone set.
In short, find out your extensions number by pressing feature * 0 intercom. That will be the extension that you put in to add the mailbox to that phone.
Now, I am assuming that you are using a voice mail system. If you are not, then you can have your phone service provider set you up with an external voice mail on a particular line.

Let me know if you have more questions.

SOURCE: Nortel 824 doesn't hold memory after a power outage

I though that the battery or capacitor to hold the memory was in the s/w cartridge but I wasn't sure. I reprog a couple of things then cut the power and the system reset to default values again so it looks like I need a new DR5 cartridge. Thanks for all the help. F.K.

What could cause norstar m7208 phone to not receive incoming calls

If you have lines appearing on your phone and they don't ring you need to program lines to ring. This type of programming is done from a M7310 phone. Page 323 of this manual shows how to program this on a NorthStar MICS Ver 6 phone system.
http://pdf.textfiles.com/manuals/TELECOM-F-R/Nortel%20MICS%20System%20Installer%20Guide%206.1.pdf

Enter the programming mode : Feature **266344
Password:266344
You will have 4 programming buttons on your phone, normally the 2 top left and 2 top right of the 2 vertical rows.
top left = move up one level
lower left = back
top right = select
lower right = next
once you enter the programming mode press next to "Terminals and Sets"
press select
enter your extension number
press select
press next to "Line Access"
press select
press next to "Line Assignment"
press select
use the next key to go to the line you want and use the soft-key below the display to change it from "Appear" to "Appear and Ring"

Nortel 7208, locked out of mailbox. Forgot password. tried 120000; says "locked out" can't get in. It is work phone need to get messages. Please help.

To reset the password on the mail box you need to go to a M7310 phone on your system. It has 3 buttons under the display. You need to press the "Feature" button and 983, then enter the password 120000 (this one is used if you have 2 digit extensions 1020000 is used if you have 3 digit extensions) . Next in the display you will see mbox-AA-othr above the soft keys. Press the button below mbox. Next enter your extension number. After that you should see the screen to reset your password. This will reset the password to 0000. When you go back to your own extension and log in to your mailbox it will prompt you to change your password. If you password120000 or 1020000 doesn't work try 121111 or 1021111, the last 4 digits are the password for the admin mailbox.

I'm locked out of the voicemail feature and I can't find a way of activating a new password to pick up messages. It's a Nortel T7208 system. Has anyone any ideas?

Feature 983 log in is 120000 (if 2 digit extension, 1020000 if 3 digit, 10020000 if 4 digit extensions)
Select Mbox, enter that locked extensions mail box number, You will see password RESET. Select RESET. Release out. This will reset that mail box password to 0000. Use feature 981 on that phone and enter the new default password of 0000. you will then be prompted to change the password.


Feature 985 will show you the extension of the phone you are using.

Hi there...

OK, the Nortel T7208 set works only on a Nortel system.
It has only one line cord plugged into it, cause the telephone system can be programmed for more telephone lines and features from the system.

If you want just a home (analog) telephone service; look at Aastra/ Telematrix/ there are others - 2 line sets.

ONLY buy this Nortel set is you have a Norstar system. Otherwise the set will not work for you. It needs a system to run off.

Good luck in your search!

Programing my nortel t7316e charcoal to access whole phone lines

If you are fmailiar with the programming of the system, you must set the lines (3-8) to appear and ring on the extensions.

Assuming you have a later release MICS or CICS:

Press Feature ** 266344, then the installer password.
Press Show at Terminals and Sets, enter ext #.
Press Show until you are asked for the line number, then scan through the line appearances, and change to "Appear Only" on the lines you don't want to ring at that set.

Repeat for each extension you want to change.


DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH PROGRAMMING.....
