You will hear dial tone.
The system reads call forwards and station hunting data, to see if they
are set, since those features take precedence over OCA.
The OCA LED will flash.
The called station will hear warning tone, and you will hear ringback tone.
The OCA call is established.
NOTES:
1. When the called station is having another OCA, your OCA will queue
until the OCA in progress terminates.
2. If the called station is on-hook upon termination, your OCA
automatically becomes an on-hook call.
3. If the called station is off-hook, your OCA becomes an off-hook call
upon termination of OCA in progress.
4. A four-second delay may occur in the operation of OCA when the
following instance takes place:
Station A is talking to station B. Station A needs to consult with
station C. Station A presses the
CONF/TRNS
button and dials station
C, only to find it busy. If station C is equipped for OCA, and station A's
COS allows for OCA to be performed (it is programmed for manual
mode in the DEKT Program) but does not have an
OCA
button, then
the four-second OCA timer is automatically initiated. The voice path
will then be opened for the announcement.
