DSS Console
The 60 button Direction Station
Selection (DSS) Console operates
operates alongside a digital
telephone to provide 60 (up to
180) additional buttons (shown
right).
The 60 programmable feature
buttons can be assigned as
Exchange (CO) line, extension,
DSS, One Touch Speed Dial or
any other flexible feature.
The DDM5060 console uses dual red and green LEDs to show call and feature status.
DSS Buttons
DSS buttons can appear on both the ADM and DSS Console. Each DSS button is
associated with a particular station in your telephone system. DSS buttons can transfer
an outside call to the associated station or make a direct call to the associated station.
The DSS LED lights steady red when the station associated with the DSS button is
ringing, busy on a call, or is idle, but all appearances of the station’s extensions are
busy or in-use by other stations. When the associated DSS button is in the Do Not
Disturb mode, the LED blinks red at a slow rate.
DSS buttons cannot directly call station Phantom extension numbers, Distributed
Hunt Group Directory Numbers, or ACD Groups. DSS buttons may be configured as
One Touch Buttons that may be programmed to call these destinations.
Calling a Station
³
To call a station’s extension from either a DSS console or a ADM, press the DSS
associated with the station.
A station call with a DSS button can be made on-hook or off-hook, and with Voice
First or Tone signalling. After pressing the button, treat the call like any other
station call made from a digital telephone.
