Answering An Exchange Line Call
An incoming call from the exchange line causes all extensions to ring, unless
call intercept (priority phone), do not disturb, or no incoming calls are set.
A double ring repeated every three seconds indicates an outside call.
If you can hear more than one extension, you will notice that the
sounds do not coincide. The sequence Is:
Extensions 1 and 3 ring together, then
Extensions 2 and 4 ring together.
However, each individual telephone gives a double ring every three seconds,
exactly as if it were connected directly to the exchange line.
The ringing sequence continues until the call is answered or the caller
abandons the call attempt.
Picking up any of the extension telephones which is ringing will answer the
call. If your extension is not ringing then you can answer the call by :
• Lifting the handset
• Listen for internal dial tone
• Dial 6
Remember to replace the handset at the end of the call.
Answering An Exchange Line Call -
When All Extensions Are Busy
When an incoming call arrives when all the extensions are busy on an internal
call, a warning tone will be heard on both extension 1 and the connected
extension. The tone will stop as soon as another extension answers the call.
If the call remains unanswered either extension 1 or its connected extension
should be used to answer it.
• Pressing hook switch once (to terminate internal call)
• Releasing hook switch
• Answer incoming call
