Loud Ringing Interface
Ring tone can be provided to the external page port connecting to a customer–
provided amplifying device. The output can then be assigned to ring with a
specific station to provide loud ringing capability.
Message Waiting Light/Indication
When a message indication is left at a keyset, the MESSAGE key will slowly flash
red. SLTs will receive a distinctive dial tone to notify them that a message is
waiting. Message waiting indications can be left for any station or group of
stations.
Mute Microphone/Handset
Any keyset user can mute the keyset's handset transmitter by pressing the MUTE
key. In addition, keyset users can also mute the keyset microphone while the
keyset is in speakerphone mode.
Off–Hook Ringing
When a keyset is in use, the system will provide an off–hook ring signal to
indicate that another call is waiting. The ring signal is a single ring repeated. The
interval is controlled by a system–wide timer. Single line stations will receive a
tone burst through the handset receiver instead of a ring.
Off–Hook Voice Announce (OHVA)
Keysets may receive a voice announcement while on another call. The calling
station must have an OHVA key. When transferring a call to a busy keyset or
while listening to busy signal, the station user can press the OHVA key to make
an OHVA call to the busy keyset. If the called keyset is in the DND mode, it
cannot receive OHVA calls.
One Time Do Not Disturb
The Do Not Disturb (One Time) feature is used to stop all calls to a station when
the user is on an outside line and does not want to be disturbed for the duration
of the call. Upon completion of the call, DND is cancelled and the station is
returned to normal service. This feature requires a programmed key.
One–Touch Dialling Keys
Frequently–used speed numbers can be assigned to one–touch dialling keys for
fast accurate dialling.
On–Hook Dialling
Any keyset user can originate calls without lifting the handset. When the called
party answers, the user may speak into the microphone or lift the handset for
more privacy.
Programmable Keys
LCD 24B and STD 24B keysets have 24 programmable keys; LCD 12B and
STD 12B keysets have 12; Enhanced 6B keysets have 6. Each key can be
programmed for different uses to personalise each phone. Examples of keys
