Call Block (Selective Call Rejection)
Call Block (also known as Selective Call Rejection) allows you to program your
phone to reject calls from a list of telephone numbers. All calls from phones on the
list receive a message which says you are not accepting calls.
To use this feature (
*60
), you create a list of telephone numbers (internal or
external) that receive the message when a call with that caller ID appears at your
telephone.
Call Block is managed through a menu of commands activated by pressing digits
on the keypad. The menu commands are:
•
1 - Enable/disable feature
•
2 - Add last caller to blocked list
•
3 - Add numbers to blocked list
•
4 - List numbers to blocked list
•
5 - Delete numbers from blocked list
The display on your telephone will show the options for each menu level. For
example, if you press 5 to delete a number, the display will show:
“1=Num, 2=List, 3=Del All, *=Main Menu”.
Enabling/Disabling Call Block
The T6000 system allows you to turn the Call Block feature on and off (i.e., decide
when calls from your list will be forwarded and when they will ring at your telephone
as usual). Disabling (turning off) the feature does not delete the list of callers who
are blocked and receive the message.
