Answering Calls
When a new call arrives at the console
•
the bell rings (if it is turned on),
•
the call appears in the

display, and
•

ID
digit.
Note:
You cannot answer a new call until the one you are engaged
in is transferred, disconnected, or put on hold.
Answering Calls on a “First-come, First-served” or Line-Priority
Basis
The
Answer
key has a “first-come, first-served” hierarchy: recalls are
answered first, then all other calls either in order of arrival or in order
of call-answering (line) priority.
If you have assigned call-answering priority, the
Answer
key answers
calls arriving on high-priority lines before calls arriving on low priority
lines.
Note:
To assign call-answering priorities to calls based on the
telephone number that the callers dial to reach the console, see
page 35.
To answer a call using the Answer key
1. Ensure both the
Source
and
Destination
areas are clear.
2. Press
Answer.
Information about the call, such as the trunk name and number
for an external call or the caller’s name and extension number
for an internal call, is displayed in the
Source
area.
