Sharing the 8411 Telephone Line with the Analog
Adjunct
When your 8411 voice terminal has not been assigned a separate telephone
number for your analog adjunct, that is, the telephone line must be shared
between your voice terminal and the analog adjunct connected to the Analog
Adjunct jack, you CANNOT use your 8411 and the analog adjunct at the same
time. If you desire to use your 8411 (the handset, the built-in speakerphone, or
any adjunct equipment connected to the Speakerphone/Headset jack) while the
analog adjunct is using the line, you must first disconnect from the analog adjunct
call.
You may disconnect from the analog adjunct call manually using a button on the
analog adjunct or use a PC command if the analog adjunct is connected to the
PC. Button #10 can also be used to disconnect the call on the analog adjunct if
that button has been enabled for the disconnect function.
In addition to the manual and Button #10 methods for disconnecting from the
analog adjunct call, going off-hook and pressing the appropriate call appearance
button will also cause the line to be switched to the voice terminal (handset,
speakerphone, or any adjunct equipment connected to the
Speakerphone/Headset jack) and a disconnect signal will be sent to the analog
adjunct. This method allows you to automatically disconnect the analog adjunct
to:
1. Answer an incoming call on another call appearance
2. Originate a call on an idle call appearance
3. Interrupt the analog adjunct and use the active call appearance
NOTE:
This feature requires the 8411 to use the first three call appearance/feature
buttons (the top three buttons in the first column) as call appearance
buttons. If there are more than three call appearance buttons administered,
the feature will still work with these (top) three buttons, but NOT with the
additional call appearance buttons.
For incoming calls, the device that answers first (that is, the 8411 handset, 8411
built-in speakerphone, any adjunct equipment connected to the
Speakerphone/Headset jack on the 8411, or the analog adjunct connected to the
8411 Analog Adjunct jack) gets control of the call. Note that not all incoming calls
will cause a ringing signal to be sent to the analog adjunct. A ringing signal will be
sent only if all call appearances are idle and the incoming call is either an inside
call, a DID call, or a Priority call.
