Answering a Ringing Line
: When one of the dial-up lines ring, the operator will hear the ring tones in the speaker
and the call indicator will flash. To answer an incoming call, momentarily press the line Select pushbutton on the
ringing line with the handset off hook.
Putting a Line on Hold:
To put an active dial-up line on hold, Select another line; either another dial-up line or a tone
line. When a dial-up line is put on hold, the line select indicator of that line will flash indicating the hold status. A
dial-up line can be placed on hold regardless if the call was initiated by dialing a number or by answering a ringing
line. To take the line off hold, simply Select that line. A paralleled console can pick up any line on hold or join in on
the conversation, by simply Selecting the line.
Terminating a Call:
The console operator can terminate the line by pressing the release pushbutton for
2 seconds
.
The release pushbutton will terminate the call regardless of the status of the line. This is useful when there are more
than one dial-up lines active simultaneously.
In the case of a DLM line, a double monitor burst will be sent up the line to reset the RP-250/ RP251 panel prior to
disconnect.
Answering a TLM while talking on the PLM/DLM Line:
Pressing the PTT switch during a telephone conversation
will cause the transmit audio to transfer to a Selected TLM module. You can answer a call on a TLM module simply
by pressing the PTT switch on the handset or headset if the line has been Selected. If the line has not been Selected,
all you have to do is Select the line and press the PTT switch. You can also use the TLM’s instant PTT switch with
the line Selected or Unselected. Upon completing the call on the TLM, you can easily revert back to the telephone
conversation by releasing the PTT switch.
Instant PTT:
This function is not applicable to the PLM line. A DLM Module will generate a PTT sequence to the
RP250/RP251 control station panel.
