FEATURES AND SERVICES
Automatic Intercom: Calls on Automatic Intercom buttons on the principal station are not
accessible from bridged call appearances.
Automatic Route Selection (ARS): When a station user originates a call on a BA button and
dials the ARS access code. the call is completed according to the restrictions assigned to
that station. The restrictions of the principal and the other bridging stations have no effect.
Callback Queuing: Calls originated on Bridged Access (BA) buttons can be queued. On
callback attempts, only the originator will be rung; all other appearances will only flash. Any
appearance in the bridging arrangement can be used to drop a queued call, if no other
station is off-hook.
If both principal and bridging users are off-hook on a call to a busy facility, only the first one
off-hook can queue the call.
Calling Restrictions:
If a station goes off-hook on a BA button and dials a number, the call
is completed according to the bridging station’s restrictions and characteristics, not the
principal station’s.
Two bridging stations or a bridging station and its principal station can attempt to originate a
call on their corresponding SA and BA buttons at the same time. This call is completed
according to the calling restrictions of the station that went off-hook first.
Conference: A station user can make conference calls on BA buttons using the normal
conference feature operations.
When a call is held for conference by pressing the
CONFERENCE button, an idle System Access (SA) button or an idle System Access-
Originate Only button, if available, is automatically selected by the system for placing the new
call. If neither of these button types is idle, the user can manually select a BA button or any
other call appearance button on which to place the new call.
While a bridging station or principal is in the process of setting up a conference call, the
green status LED of the held call’s BA button or SA button has a broken flutter indication.
Other bridging or principal stations that are actively bridged to the call have steadily lighted
status LEDs; stations that are not active on the call have winking green status LEDs
(indicating that the appearance is on hold).
Coverage—Individual and Group: An incoming call is given individual and/or group coverage
according to the coverage specified for the principal.
Calls appearing on BA buttons at the
bridging stations are not extended to the coverage specified for those stations.
Display: Call descriptor “

”
appears in position 15 of Screen 1 for a call containing more
than two active parties; position 16 contains the actual number of bridgers. The number of
parties is displayed at each terminal in a bridged call and is updated as the status changes.
