4.3.4 Comfortable Call Transfer
When you operate further TELES-ISDN devices on your ISDN point-to-
multipoint line besides the TELES.iPBX 8TR Box, you can profit from a special
patented procedure developed by TELES for call transfer: direct transfer of calls
to further TELES.ISDN terminal devices connected to the
same ISDN line
.
When using devices from other manufacturers, call transfer is only indirectly
possible by parking the call and retrieving it from another extension.
Prerequisite is that the devices are from TELES and each device has its own de-
vice ID (see section 5.14, page 48). In order to transfer connections to other
ports
of the
box
use the R key instead (section 4.3.1, page 14).
Transfer a call
from the box
to another TELES.ISDN terminal device
:
Γ
You conduct a call.
∗∗∗
Press the star key three times.
Ν
Enter the device ID of the device to which the connection
should be transferred.
#
Press the pound key.
Θ
You hear the OK-tone.
∆
Put the receiver down. The other TELES.ISDN terminal device
rings.
Note:
If there is no terminal device with the specified ID attached to
the ISDN line, your telephone rings again and you can retrieve
the call. If the called party does not accept the call, you cannot
retrieve the connection though.
Transfer call from a different TELES.ISDN terminal device
to the box
:
You can read how to activate the function in the device’s manual. A single key
is sufficient, for example, on the TELES.FON. This is how you can dial a port of
the box directly: for port 1 dial the box’s device ID. For the 2
nd
port enter the
device ID’s number plus 1, for the 3
rd
port add 2, etc.
Example:
Say the box’s device ID is set on 5. For port 11 you would sim-
ply dial 5, for port 12 dial 6, for port 13 dial 7, and so on.
Note:
Comfortable call transfers cannot be made by or to ports 17 +
18. Additionally device IDs are limited to the numbers 1
through 8. This means that other higher number ports of the box
may not be accessible if the device ID is set high as well.
For further details, read section 5.14 Change Device ID, page 48, concerning the
assignment and reservation of device IDs for the box’s ports.
