Recall/Timed Flash
Personal Lines
When two users have joined an outside call on a shared personal line
(loop-start only), Recall can be used by either inside party.
Pools
If a user presses the Recall button during or after dialing, a timed flash is
sent to the host switch, the accessed line is kept, the user hears dial tone,
and calling restrictions are reapplied.
Privacy
A single-line telephone user with a Recall or Flash button can use the
button to turn Privacy on or off during a call.
Reminder Service
Recall can be used to disconnect an answered reminder call.
Saved Number Dial
Recall can be used on a Saved Number Dial call on a personal line, Pool
button (loop-start only), an inside call, or, in Release 2.0 and later, an
outside call made on a loop-start line using an SA or ICOM button.
SMDR
Each time Recall/Timed Flash is used on a call, a new Station Message
Detail Recording record is generated. For example, if a user is active on a
call and uses Recall to initiate a conference call, SMDR timing is stopped
for the original call and a new record is begun. If the user then calls a
second party and uses Recall again to join the conference parties, a third
SMDR record is generated with an empty CALLED NUMBER field.
Speed Dial
The Conf button is used to enter the Flash special character, which
simulates pressing the Recall button in a Personal Speed Dial or System
Speed Dial telephone number.
System Access/
Intercom Buttons
Recall can be used on a ringing or answered inside call made on an SA
or ICOM button. The call is disconnected and the user hears dial tone.
When the user is listening to a busy signal, Recall has no effect.
Either the user with the principal SA button or the user with a Shared SA
button who has joined a call can use Recall. In Release 2.0 and later
systems, Recall is available on an outside call on a loop-start line when
the call is made or received on the SA or Shared SA button.
Transfer
A single-line telephone user with a Recall or Flash button can use it to
transfer a call.
In Release 2.0 and later systems, Recall is available on a transferred
outside call on a loop-start line (the transfer arrives on an SA or ICOM
button).
In Behind Switch mode, the fixed Transfer button on an MLX or analog
multiline telephone must be programmed through system programming to
send a timed flash plus the code expected by the host switch to activate
transfer on the host. To use communications system’s Transfer feature as
well, it must be programmed on an available line button on each multiline
telephone, using extension or centralized telephone programming.
