Features subject to change without notice
V1
Automatic Hold
Automatic hold allows the user to jump from one CO Line directly to another CO Line,
placing each line on hold, without pressing the hold button. This allows busy extension
users, such as the attendant, to answer multiple calls very quickly.
Automatic Line Select
Users may select how their idle station functions when lifting the handset or press the speaker
button. An extension can be set to access a specific outside line, a trunk (CO Line) route or
intercom (ICM) automatically when going off hook or pressing the speaker button.
Automatic Privacy
All stations conversations are considered private. Therefore, no other stations can join in on a
conversation without special permission.
Automatic Redial
Automatic redial assists the user by redialing the last number dialed. This is helpful when the
called telephone number is busy or when there is no answer. When a programmable timer
expires, the system notifies the extension user and then redials the telephone number. This
process will continue until the maximum number of retries is reached.
Background Music
When this feature is enabled at an idle telephone, the user can hear the music, if supplied by an
ancillary music on hold source.
Battery Backup (Watchdog)
The watchdog battery is used to keep power applied to the RAM that stores customer databases.
If the power to the KSU is turned off, or the system loses power, the watchdog battery ensures
that the database is not lost.
Busy Lamp Field
A busy lamp is a programmable button, which is a visual indication showing the status of another
extension on the system.
Busy Ring Allow/Deny
Extension users may select to allow or deny additional calls to ring their extension when they are
busy. When busy ring is allowed, extension users will receive a muted ring when the second call
is presented to their extension. If denied, the call will follow the station forwarding parameter.
(Suite 64 only)
Call Announce Privacy
Each station can be set to answer intercom calls in one of three ways. Hands free with answer
back, call announce (hands free) with privacy or tone ringing. The hands free with answer back
will allow both parties to converse without pressing any buttons. Hands free with privacy will
allow the calling party to announce the call, but the called party connects with mute enabled,
which keeps the calling parties conversation private.
