Operation
All conversations on the VoCALL network system are under the command of the network master
handset, if multiple network master handsets exist, the first operated one takes command of the system.
Pt9 envisages the majority of calls to be made by lifting the handset of an outstation (Type A) or pressing
the call button (Type B).
Receiving a Call
When a handset is lifted or the call button is pressed on the Type B units, the phone on the control
point(s) will ring and the name of the calling extension will appear on the LCD display (all exchange lines
can be given a unique 16 character name to identify themselves such as “Floor 1 Riser E”).
The operator can then lift the handset and connect to the calling extension by pressing the # key. If more
than one line is calling, all calling lines show in the display, and may be scrolled through with the
navigate buttons, connected using the # key, or if already connected placed on hold using the # key a
second time.
Making a Call
Lift the handset on the control phone, then either:
Dial the number of the line you require and press # to call, the line will connect automatically when the
remote handset is lifted or the call button is pressed.
Press the * key to scroll the display to the directory page. Once in the directory use the up and down
keys navigation to select the extension name you wish to call, and press # to call. The line will connect
when answered.
Ending or Holding a Call
Both call types can be ended by pressing the # key on the exchange line you no longer wish to call (if
the bell symbol is shown).
Pressing # while a remote outstation is speaking or is off hook will place the line on HOLD (the symbol of
an off hook phone is shown), you can talk to this line again by scrolling to it and pressing # again
Making a Call to Another Master (multi-master systems only):
Lift the handset on the control phone, then either:
Dial the number of the master you require (001 for master 1, 008 for master 8) and press # to call, the
line will connect automatically when the remote handset is lifted or the call button is pressed.
Press the * key to scroll the display to the directory page. Once in the directory use the up and down
keys navigation to select the master name you wish to call, and press # to call. The line will connect
when answered.
