Instruction manual

FEATURES AND SERVICES
If a line rings at a multiline terminal when the terminal is busy on another call, Ringing Line
Preference will not activate, even if the user goes on-hook during the ringing cycle.
However, Ringing Line Preference is not canceled at the Attendant Console while the
attendant is off-hook. If a line is ringing while the attendant is off-hook, the ringing line will
be selected as soon as the attendant goes on-hook.
Preselection:
Allows multiline voice terminal users to override the above line preference features.
Users may simply press a desired line access button before going off-hook. The user will be
connected to the facility selected unless the facility is busy and the party using it has invoked
Exclusion or is part of a conference call that is at maximum capacity.
When off-hook, a user can select a facility by pressing the associated button. (This will
terminate the call the user was on.)
A user may activate the busy-to-idle reminder on a busy AUTO ICOM, DSS, FLEX DSS, or
FACILITY button by pressing the button while on-hook.
A burst of ringing is provided when
the facility becomes idle.
Refer to the description of the Busy-to-Idle feature for additional
information.
Considerations
Prime Line Preference (on the topmost SYSTEM ACCESS or Loop button) and Ringing Line
Preference are assigned by default to all multiline voice terminals. While these assignments
may be changed, it is strongly recommended that Ringing Line Preference be retained.
It is recommended that Prime Line Preference not be assigned to a Direct Trunk Attendant
Console (DTAC).
Preselection allows users to override line preference features already administered for the
terminal and to activate the busy-to-idle reminder feature.
Interactions
The following features interact with Line Selection.
Attendant Console, Direct Trunk: If a line rings at a DTAC while the attendant is on another
call, Ringing Line Preference will be invoked when the attendant hangs up.
Bridging of System Access Buttons:
A Bridged Access button can be specified as the
preferred line for outgoing calls when the station goes off-hook.
If a station has Ringing Line Preference enabled and has a ringing bridged call appearance,
an on-hook user is connected to the bridged appearance if the set goes off-hook.
