EDIAL
• The system continues redial attempts until:
• The call rings through and caller picks up, or
• The maximum number of attempts is reached, or
• Any other feature is used on the telephone.
• If all CO lines or CO line groups are busy when the system attempts the auto redial, that attempt counts as a
valid attempt and reduces the remaining number of attempts.
• You can program the feature code Feature # * as a flexible feature button on the DET. If you do, the
extension user can use that button to invoke the feature. While the feature is active the system lights the
button LED a steady red. When extension users are attempting a redial the system flashes the button red.
You set the number of redial attempts and the timed interval between attempts; these cannot be changed at the
extension level.
Other features whose programming may be affected by auto redial include the following.
• Voice Mail - Digital Integration
• Extension Application - Voice Mail Table, Record Digit, and Automatic Record Member
