Description

Conference allows conference calls that include people on inside lines, outside
lines, or both.
Group Calling
Calls to calling groups in a system set up in Behind Switch mode follow
the communications system ring pattern, not the central office ring
pattern.
Recall/Timed Flash
In Behind Switch mode, a Recall button should be programmed to send
switchhook flash to activate Centrex features. The system supports the
use of a Recall button only on loop-start lines.
Speed Dial
During periods of high traffic, users may experience a delay in obtaining
dial tone from the Centrex service. This could cause misdialing when
using System Speed Dial or Personal Speed Dial. Pause characters can
be programmed as part of the Speed Dial number after entering the
access code.
Transfer
In Behind Switch mode, the fixed-function Transfer button applies to
Centrex transfers and is not recognized by the communications system. A
button can be programmed for communications system Transfer.
