Call handling features
This section presents a number of separate call handling features
that help to make the Burnside units which have dual links (mobile
and landline) the most flexible and beneficial in their class.
Outgoing call routing (‘L’ models only)
This feature has the potential to
greatly reduce your call costs by
ensuring that outgoing calls are
made using the most efficient
method:
• Calls to fixed phones via the
landline connection,
• Calls to mobiles via the mo-
bile connection.
To use outgoing call routing you
merely need to enable the fea-
ture and, if necessary, redefine
the call prefix for mobile numbers (‘07’ as standard).

Manually routing a landline call via mobile connection
(‘L’ models only)
This feature allows you to transfer an existing landline call out to a
new number via the mobile connection. Think of this feature as your
own mini-PBX (Private Branch eXchange), allowing you to connect
two remote callers whenever required.
1 During a call (via the landline connection), press
9
on the phone.
The existing call will be placed on hold and you will hear a dial
tone.
2 Dial the complete phone number to which you wish to transfer the
existing call. Once the called number is ringing, you can either
hang up immediately (to directly connect the calls) or wait for an
answer in order to introduce the landline caller before hanging up.
• If necessary, press recall on the phone (or quickly tap the
hook switch) to display the options for rejecting the new call or
swapping to the existing call. Use the or
#
keys to choose the
required option and press
0
to accept.
Note: Once the call is transferred, you will continue to be charged
by your mobile service provider for the duration of the new call.
