xternal Feature Access
Description
Allows the extension user to have access to the features of a host
PBX, Centrex or Central Office, such as Call Waiting, etc. This is
performed by putting the current party on hold and sending a flash
signal.
Conditions
• This feature is effective only during an outside call. However if the
FLASH feature (Disconnection signal) is activated by System
Programming, this feature does not work.
• The flash time must be assigned as required by the Centrex, host PBX
or outside line.
• With a proprietary telephone, the FLASH or FLASH/RCL button or the
feature number is used to perform this function. With a standard
telephone, the feature number cannot be used when the user already has
a Consultation Hold.
• During outside calls, a FLASH stored in System Speed Dialing, Station
Speed Dialing or One-Touch Dialing functions as External Feature
Access, not as Flash.
