General
The elapsed call time is shown on the LCD when a Multiline Terminal
user is talking on an outside line.
The maximum display on the Elapsed Call Timer is 99 minutes and 59
seconds. When the timer reaches the maximum, it resets to 00
minutes and 00 seconds.
When a call is placed on hold (Exclusive or Non-Exclusive) or a
Transfer Recall, the Elapsed Call Timer continues timing.
When a transferred call is answered, the Elapsed Call Timer is reset
to 00:00.
For outgoing CO/PBX calls, the starting time is set at 20 seconds
(default) after the last digit is dialled. For incoming outside calls, the
starting time is immediate. However, there is a five second delay after
the call is answered.
The starting time for outgoing Tie line calls is when the called party
answers the call.
The Elapsed Call Timer display clears during dialling and returns five
seconds after the last digit is dialled.
The Elapsed Call Timer for each outside line operates independently.
When several outside calls have been made from a station, the LCD
displays the elapsed time when talking on each individual call.
During a 2-line conference call, the LCD displays the elapsed time of
the last individual line call.
Not applicable.
