Using dialing services __________________________________
When you place an outbound call, you must enter a number for a dialing service
before you dial the phone number. Your Strata CS system administrator typically
sets up dialing services with names like “Phone number” or “Chicago Centrex”
with access codes of 9 or 8 so that it is easy for you to remember the appropriate
dialing service to use when you place a call.
For example, to call an external phone number, you could do one of the following:
n
Select the dialing service “Phone number” on the Call using drop-down
list in the Place Call To dialog box in the Client, choose the phone number
that you want to dial on the list, and click
OK .
n
Dial the access code “9” on your telephone and then dial the phone
number.
The dialing services available to you depend on how your system is set up. Your
Strata CS system administrator can tell you how to choose the appropriate dialing
service for the following types of calls:
n
Local or long-distance calls over a T1 line
n
Calls to a PBX or Centrex extension
n
Calls to a user on another Strata CS system through an Internet connection
n
Calls to the Internet address of an H.323 terminal such as Microsoft
NetMeeting
