Placing Calls
3.1
Internal Calls
You can place calls to other stations in the system over
the Intercom. The call will ring, or for an
ICM Voice
Announce
call, a splash tone will be heard. Ring or
Voice Announce is normally determined by settings at
the called station but you may change this by dialing ‘#’
after placing the call. By changing the mode, a Voice
Announce call will ring or a ringing ICM call will allow
Voice Announce (toggle).
You can assign a Flex button for
Direct Station
Selection/Busy Lamp Field (DSS/BLF)
. The
DSS
/
BLF
button allows you to call another station with a single
tuch of the button. The button LED will display the other
station’s status (ON=busy, OFF=idle).
When you go off-hook, you may connect to another
station or system resource automatically. This
Prime
Line Preference
may be immediate or delayed allowing
you to take other actions during the delay. Otherwise,
you may press another Flex button before going off-
hook to override Prime Line Preference.
If you go off-hook and take no action, Intercom dial-tone
will time-out, and after the
Howler tone
is received,
your phone will be placed out-of-service in
Intercom
Lock-Out
; you then must hang-up to return the phone
to an idle state.
3.1.1 Using Camp-On when calling a busy station
If the called party is busy, you may activate
Camp-On
,
Callback
or
Voice Over
at the station.
Camp-On
allows you to wait off-hook for the called station to
answer.
Callback
allows you to hang-up, and when the
busy station returns to an idle state, the system will call
your Station; after you answer the callback, the system
will call the previously busy station.
To place an Intercom call:
•
Lift the handset,
•
Dial the Intercom number of the desired station,
•
When the call is answered or the Splash tone is heard, speak
to the called party.
