About Your Direct-Line Console

Using Direct Station Selector Buttons

Your console can have one or two DSSs attached to it. The

DSS has 50 buttons arranged in 5 columns of 10 buttons. DSS
buttons have assigned numbers in consecutive order, starting
with the top left corner button. Each button can have three

numbers assigned to it. These numbers can be the following
numbers or codes:

■ 

Extension numbers of co-workers—for transferring or

making inside calls.

■ 

Extension numbers—for paging co-workers over

speakerphones or loudspeaker systems (Page feature)
or for parking calls. Park puts a call on hold so that it
can be picked up at another extension (Park feature).
See Chapter 4 for more details on these features.

■ 

DSS buttons for lines

If your DSS is not labeled, ask your system manager for the
numbers assigned to it and for instructions on using them.
