Switch Features
Abbreviated Dialing Allows you to store selected telephone numbers for quick and
easy dialing. Each number can be a complete or partial telephone number, an
extension number, or a trunk or feature code. There are four possible types of
lists—personal, group, system, and enhanced—and you can have a total of three out
of the four possible lists (see your system manager for details). Numbers on a
personal list are programmable by you; numbers on all other lists are programmable
only by the system manager. Use as a timesaver for dialing frequently called,
lengthy, or emergency numbers.
Automatic Callback Sends you a special 3-burst ringing tone indicating that a
previously busy or unanswered extension is now available. Use to avoid constant
redialing when you wish to speak to someone who is frequently busy on the voice
terminal or in and out of the office. Note: This feature can be used only for
extensions, not outside numbers.
Call Forwarding All Calls Temporarily forwards all your calls to another extension
or to an outside number, depending on your system. Use when you will be away
from your voice/data terminal and you want your calls to be forwarded to a voice
terminal of your choice.
Call Park Puts a call on hold at your voice/data terminal for retrieval at any
extension. Use when you need to go elsewhere to get information during a call, or
whenever you wish to complete a call from a different location. Also, if the call
received is for someone else, use it to hold the call until the called party can answer
it from the nearest available voice terminal.
Call Pickup Lets you answer a call at your voice/data terminal for another
extension in your pickup group. Use when you wish to handle a call for a group
member who is absent or otherwise unable to answer. Note: You can only use this
feature if you and the called party have been assigned to the same pickup group by
your system manager.
Leave Word Calling Leaves a message for another extension to call you back. The
called party will be able to dial message service (for example, attendant, AUDIX,
covering user, etc.) to retrieve a short, standard message which gives your name and
extension, the date and time you called, and the number of times you called. Use
any time you wish to have someone call you back; it will help cut down on repeated
call attempts.
Priority Calling Allows you to call another extension with a distinctive 3-burst ring
to indicate that your call requires immediate attention. Use when you have
important or timely information for someone.
Send All Calls Temporarily sends all your calls to the extension of a person
designated to answer them when you cannot (perhaps a secretary or receptionist).
Use when you will be away from your desk for awhile, or when you do not wish to be
interrupted by voice terminal calls.
