Instruction manual
Bridging of System Access Buttons
If two bridged stations attempt to originate a call at the same time, and if the call is
completed, the PDC number of the station that dialed the first digit is placed in the SMDR
records under the STN column.
Transfer: A call can be transferred from a bridged call appearance using the usual transfer
operations. When a call is held for transfer by pressing the TRANSFER button, an idle
System Access 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 appearance
types is idle, the user can manually select a BA button or any other call button on which to
place the new call.
The transfer operation and status indications of the principal’s SA button (and its
corresponding BA buttons) are similar to Personal Line operation with the following
exceptions:
Calls can be from/to an inside station or from/to an outside location, and after
the transfer is completed (transferring station goes on-hook) the call will stay at the
principal’s SA button and its BA buttons only if one or more of these stations is bridged to
the call. Otherwise, the call will be removed. An on-hold bridging station or principal is not
considered to be bridged to the call.
