Intercom Dial Tone Settings
. There are a host of
options available for guest stations as it relates to intercom dial tone and tones that are
offered when various features are activated like do not disturb, call forward and message
waiting.
It is suggested to set this option to a 2 which is steady dial tone for all conditions to
alleviate confusing the guest and having them call the console operator because they are
receiving an interrupted tone when placing a call.
If the room phones are not capable of receiving any normal system message waiting
methods then this parameter can be set to a 6 which will give an interrupted dial tone
ONLY when a message has been set to the extension which will revert to normal steady
dial tone once the message has been cleared.

Call Hold
. Disable this feature to alleviate the
potential of the guest performing a hook flash on a trunk as opposed to hanging up.
Program 78-ST-01
Set LCR level
to 5 even if you are only using a single
carrier for long distance. The LCR level MUST be turned on before calls can be routed
and costed in the system. If you are using internal call costing you
MUST
enable LCR for
all guest stations.
Generally
review ALL class of service options related to guest stations and disable any
and all features that are not required and may cause service calls for one reason or
another.
