7 Private
exchanges
If you have connected your telephone to a PBX, you can use all the special functions such as
call forwarding and automatic call-back. These can be accessed using the "R" button. Different
FLASH times are required when using on a private exchange. You can find out how to change
the FLASH time under 8.11. The factory setting is 100 ms. To check whether your telephone will
function correctly with your PBX, consult the supplier of the PBX.
7.1 Using
Pause
With private exchanges, it is necessary to dial a certain number (e.g. "9" or "0") in order to obtain
a dialling tone for an outside line on the extension. With some, older private exchanges, it takes
some time before the dialling tone can be heard. Especially for these private exchanges, an
automatic pause can be inserted after connecting to the outside line so that you can dial directly
without waiting for the dialling tone.
The length of the pause can be varied between 1 and 3 seconds. For more information, see
8.12.
Entering a pause when dialling manually
Press the redial button
for approximately 2 seconds between the number for the outside
line and the actual telephone number. The symbol
P
will appear in the display.
The pause can also be saved with numbers in the phone book.
