Enquiry, Toggling, Transfer and Conference Telephoning
Or if you do not wish to wait for the
called subscriber to answer: Press
A
and the other subscriber will be
called.
If the called subscriber accepts the
call, he/she will be connected to the
waiting call. If the call is not ac-
cepted within a certain period of
time (by default 45 seconds), you
get an automatic callback and are
connected to the original subscriber
when you press
A again.
The period of time after which a re-
call is made can be changed by your
system administrator. Ask your ad-
ministrator for the current time
value.
While a call is being transferred to
another internal subscriber, the
caller hears music on hold. The set-
ting “Music on hold upon transfer
on calling” in the Configurator of
the Web console specifies whether
callers continue to hear music on
hold on recall, or whether they hear
the ringing tone again.
If the called subscriber is busy, press
the
Menu softkey and confirm
Disconnect with
OK . Then enter
another internal number to transfer
the call or press the
R key to be
connected to the caller again.
Transferring an External
Call to an External
Subscriber
External calls can only be transferred
to an external subscriber via the
“Subscriber on hold” menu.
You have dialled an external number
for a consultation call (see Enquiry/
Toggling by Means of the R-Key start-
ing on page 43); the original (exter-
nal) caller is kept on hold.
Press the
Menu softkey briefly and
confirm the Transfer menu item
with
OK .
Depending on your communica-
tions system’s settings, the external
calls will be switched together in
your communications system or in
the exchange of you network opera-
tor.
Note: If you connect two directly
dialled calls, the charges will be
billed to your own account. You will
also have no control over the dura-
tion of the transferred call.
