Auto Start and Don’t Split
Auto Start is an administrable feature that allows you to initiate a phone call by
pressing any button on the dial keypad. If you are on an active call and you dial
digits on the keypad, the console automatically splits the call and begins dialing
the next call. When the Auto Start feature is enabled, the
START button is disabled.
To disable the Auto Start feature, use the Don’t Split feature. This allows the
switch to send the digits you dial to the other end. Use the Don’t Split feature if
you need to send touch-tone digits to the far end to pick up answering machine
messages when Auto Start is administered.
