USER OPERATION
With ENBLOC dialing, you have the opportunity to correct any dialing mistakes by using the backspace soft key
and correcting the number before executing the call. The keypad works during an active call to generate DTMF
tones for use with voice mail, automated attendants, and being obnoxious on the air.
CURIOSITY NOTE:
We don’t know why the condition of picking up a line which was about to ring and getting an
incoming call instead of dial tone is called “Glare.” Perhaps it’s because of the looks air staff give
engineers when this happens too often! If you find out, be sure to let us know.
Take it Easy
We’ve built a lot of flexibility into the VX system to support all the sophisticated things you might want to do. But
you don’t have to use all the fancy-pants stuff when you don’t need it
and a simpler subset will do.
In the simplest case, when you are a talent supported by a producer, you could just use the NEXT and DROP
buttons. You press the NEXT button to take calls in the sequence determined by your producer and you press the
DROP button when you are finished with your last call and you want to stop taking more.
One step up would have you pressing the right column Line buttons to select the calls you want, one at a time.
Again, when you are finished taking calls, you would press DROP. You could use the left column Line buttons to talk
with callers on the handset.
At the next level, you would use either the Lock function or the fixed line capability to conference calls.
