DS1000/2000 Quick Setup Guide
Direct Station Selection (DSS) Console
DSS Consoles provide one-touch access to extensions, trunks and system features.
The DSS Console gives a 34-Button Display or 34-Button Super Display user a Busy Lamp Field (BLF) and
one-button access to extensions, trunks, and selected system features. This saves time for users that do a lot
of call processing (such as operators or dispatchers). There are two DSS Console types: the 24-Button (P/N
80556) and the 110-Button (P/N 80555). By default, there are no DSS Consoles programmed. Once pro-
grammed, DSS Consoles use the default key assignments shown in Figure 2-2
DSS Console Default Assign-
ments
on page 2-11.
The system allows you to install 4 DSS Consoles maximum. In addition, System Load Factor may further
reduce the number that you can install. Refer to
System Load Factor Calculations
in
your system’s
Hard-
ware Manual
for more. You cannot connect multiple DSS Consoles to the same keyset. DSS Consoles do not
use a station port and do not require their own power supply.
The system provides four unique DSS con
fi
gurations (called blocks). If you want your DSS Consoles to
have unique key con
fi
gurations, assign them to different blocks. If you want your consoles to share the same
con
fi
guration, assign them to the same block. Note that DSS Console Personal Speed Dial bins are the same
as the extension to which the console is attached. This means that DSS Consoles that share the same block
number still have unique Personal Speed Dial.
You can assign DSS Console keys to the following functions. If you have additional questions about the fea-
tures listed, refer to the
Software Manual
on your
System Document CD
