A button may be stuck on the dial pad. Check all buttons to ensure they are free and none of them are stuck.

SOURCE: Call forwarding to outside line

To send a call to another telephone within your system, or to an external
telephone. You may not be able to transfer a call on an external line
to an external telephone, depending on the capabilities of the lines.
1. Make or answer a call.
2. Press the feature button then press 70.
3. Call the person you want to transfer the call to.
4. Stay on the line if you wish to speak to the person first.
5. Press the Release button to complete the transfer.
If an external call is transferred to a busy internal or network
extension, or is not answered after a few rings, the call automatically
rings you back.

SOURCE: SCREEN NOT DISPLAYING NUMBERS

If you haven't already tried it, unplug the phone, press a couple of buttons, then plug it back in so it resets. If the boxes still appear, try adjusting the display contrast. Press Feature-*-7 to get to contrast setting and then press 6 or 7 to set mid-range contrast.

SOURCE: Nortel T7316E Call Forwarding - Outside Line

The Nortel call forwarding (feature 4) is for forwarding the ringing and intercom from one extension to another.ex. if you were going to be working in the conference rm. instead of at your desk,with the forward on to the conference rm. extension, the calls you get at your desk will transfer to the conference rm. phone. Call forwarding through your service provider is done by accessing the telephone line you wish to forward, dial *72 (you should get dialtone reordered)and dial the telephone number to where you want the calls to be forwarded to. the party on where your forwarding the line to has to answer the line for the forward to take place. to remove call forwarding , access the line you have the forward on and dial * 73, you should recieve a stuttered dialtone for confirmation that the service is off

SOURCE: nortel phone m3904 won't forward to an outside line

The DN may not be configured to allow forwarding to an outside line for security reasons. I think the default is 4 digits. You will need to talk to whomever programs your switch and ask them to allow this feature.

M7208 call display not working hot sure how to program it. when calls come in it does not show who is calling

So is the display not working or are you trying to set up caller ID?

M7208 phones were delivered with the very first Nortel systems and if you have one of those, you're not getting CID. The CICS cabinet or higher requries a CID trunk card and IIRC 5.0 or higher software. If all of those are in place, as a minimum you can press FEATURE 811 to display CID info.

I am trying to figure what my extension is? I have an M7208 Nortel

Do a button inquiry to find your prime line(intercom number). Press feature *0 then the button you want to identify. Your prime line will be either the bottom programmable button or the next one up.
The button defintion will appear in the LCD screen for each button inquiry you do.

No dial tone

try another M7208 phone using the same connection including the same line cord, if that phone works then the first phone is bad, if not then look for trouble at the outlet or line cord

Cannot get the pulse tone off the line and that prevents from voicemail access and call forwarding HELP!

In guessing that since your lines have defaulted to pulse dialing that you have an older Nortel system such as an 8x24 or a 6x16 system. That being said you'll need to program touch tone dialing on each line.

Programming is done on M7310, M7324 and T7316 sets.
To set up ringing you need to enter programming by pressing the feature key followed by **266344.When prompted to enter the password enter 266344.
the display says A. Configuration
4 top line/feature keys are now used for programming
Press the show key (top right arrow)
the display will say1. trunk/line data
Press the show key (top right arrow) .
the display will say line 001.
Press the show key (top right arrow)
the display trunk data
press the show key (top right arrow) Press the next key 7 times(bottom right arrow) .
The display should say Dial mode: pulse.
Press the Change soft key (below the display).
the display should now say tone. press the heading key (top left arrow) to get back to "trunk/line data" repeat the steps for the remainder of your active lines
press Rls when finished
