Auto Dial
A Signal button and an Auto Dial button cannot be programmed for the
same extension. If a user tries to program one of these buttons while the
other is already programmed, the feature being programmed erases the
previously programmed feature.
Conference
Signal and Notify can be used during a conference call.
Digital Data Calls
Signaling can be activated by video systems that have the ability to dial
strings and feature codes beginning with #.
A Notify signal can be received at a passive-bus MLX telephone, even
when a 2B data or voice call is active.
Direct Station
Selector
If a user presses a Signal button programmed with a system operator’s
extension while making a call to the system operator, the LED next to the
operator’s DSS (Direct Station Selector) button changes from flashing to
steady while the Signal button is held down.
Do Not Disturb
Signal cannot be used when the destination telephone user activates Do
Not Disturb.
Group Calling
A Signal button cannot be programmed for a calling group.
Messaging
If a display telephone user presses a Signal button only to send an
audible signal with a posted message to a telephone, the posted
message is not shown on the display at the destination. However, if a
display telephone user selects an SA or ICOM button, lifts the handset,
and
then
uses the Signal button to dial the extension, the posted
message is shown at the destination telephone.
Multi-Function
Module
When set for supplemental alert adapter operation, a Multi-Function
Module (MFM) can receive a signal but cannot send one. An MFM cannot
receive a signal when set for tip/ring operation.
Privacy
Users can program and use the Signal and Notify features to signal
co-workers who have activated Privacy.
Transfer
A Signal button can be used to dial the extension during a transfer after
the Transfer button and either an SA or ICOM button is pressed. Signal
buttons cannot be used to initiate one-touch Transfer.
