Bridging of System Access Buttons
Direct Group Calling (OGC): DGC calls arriving on SA buttons at a principal station can
receive bridging treatment at a bridging station.
Direct Station Selection (DSS): Calls from DSS or Flex DSS buttons on the principal station
are not accessible from bridged appearances.
Exclusion: If a principal or bridging station presses the EXCLUSION button during a call, all
other internal stations on the call will be dropped.
In addition, Exclusion will prevent any
other internal station from bridging onto the call.
Following: Sign-in and sign-out procedures can be performed at the destination station on
either a SA button or a BA button.
However, since Following calls always arrive on SA
buttons, the destination station must have at least one SA button.
Following calls arriving at a principal SA button are accessible at bridged call appearances of
that button.
Forwarding: This feature is station-oriented.
It can be activated and deactivated for a
forwarding principal station only at a SA button on that station. If forwarding is activated at a
BA button on a bridging station, it affects calls to that station only.
Hands-Free Answer on Intercom (HFAI): If a station has HFAI activated, internal calls
arriving at this station on a SA button will auto-answer.
However, calls arriving at this station
on a BA button will ring according to the administered ring option and will not auto-answer.
Hold: A principal or bridging station user who is active on a bridged call can hold the call by
pressing the HOLD button.
If there is still a bridging or principal station active on the call,
the green status LEDs of all associated SA/BA buttons remain lighted steadily. If no other
bridging or principal station is active on the call, the green status LEDs of all associated
SA/BA buttons wink.
Any of the principal or bridging stations can enter the held call, unless Exclusion has been
activated or the maximum number of parties are already connected to the conversation.
Last Number Dialed: The Last Number Dialed feature saves numbers called from either SA
or BA buttons.
Line Status and I-Use Indications: The meanings of green line status and red I-use
indications on BA buttons are consistent with all other System 25 operation.
Message Waiting: Stations with bridged appearances can have Coverage Message Waiting
(COVER-MSG) buttons.
By using the COVER-MSG button, the bridging user can check
and/or change the status of the principal’s Message LED. If the bridging station also serves
as an Individual Coverage receiver, the same COVER-MSG button can be used for bridging
and coverage messaging needs. Use of the COVER-MSG button is identical to current
System 25 operation.
Night Service:
Directed Night Service calls ring immediately at an available SA button on the
Night Service station, regardless of the administered ring option. Bridged appearances of
this SA button will flash but not ring, regardless of the administered ring option.
