waiting for them by using the CAMP ON button. To camp on a call, press

the TRANS button to transfer the call to the desired busy station, then

press the CAMP ON button. The busy party receives a muted ring over

the keyset speaker, and a visual flashing CAMP ON LED. By pressing the

CAMP ON button, the person called places their existing outside call on

hold and is connected to the person placing the Camp On. They can

then pick up the call on the appropriate line.
