Hot Line Mode
Hot line mode is normally used to ring one phone automatically the moment
you pick up another. To use this feature, program the off-hook mode for the
line from which you will make the call as “hot line” (see Chapter 6 for details).
Program the “revert/hotline” number to the first or second number of the line
you wish to ring. When you go off-hook on the originating line, ring back will
be heard, and the destination line will ring.
Silent Mode
This mode can be used to provide silence when you go off-hook. To use this
feature, program the off-hook mode for “silence”. Any or all of the lines can be
used in this way.
Uses for Hunt Mode
Hunt Mode, command 35, can be used to Simulate Trunk Groups/Telethons.
Please see Chapter 6 for a detailed explanation of this command.
Ring First/Ring Next/Ring All
When Hunt mode is set to “ring first available”, “ring all”, or “ring next” with
multiple lines set to the same phone number, it simulates a group of lines with
a single pilot number (like the trunks into a PBX system). “Ring first available”
will always ring the lowest non-busy line. This will cause the lowest line to
receive the most calls. “Ring next” will ring the next non-busy line in sequence
above the last one to have rung. “Ring all” will ring all the lines until one goes
off-hook.
Caller ID must be disabled (*50#0#) for all lines if you use “ring all”. If Caller
ID is active on any of the lines, the “ring all” command will be treated as the
“ring first available” command. The secondary ring cadence should be
programmed the same for all lines in the Hunt group when Caller ID is active.
TLS-5C & TLS-5D Features
SCWID or CIDCW
SCWID (Spontaneous Call Waiting with Caller ID) also known as CIDCW
(Caller ID in Call Waiting) is a function that supports Caller ID after a Call
Waiting Tone. This feature is invoked in the TLS-5C/D whenever a third party
places a call to an existing call, if Caller ID is enabled and Cancel Call Waiting
has not been enabled. The called party may then ignore the Call Waiting, or
generate a Flash to place the first caller on hold, and answer the Call Waiting.
If the called party ignores the first Call Waiting alerting sequence, it will be
repeated once, ten seconds later. If the called party answers the Call Waiting,
the party is allowed to alternate between callers using the Flash function. If
one party hangs up, the remaining parties are automatically connected.
