Motorola APS120 - Manual (Page 43)

The APS Custom requires global park resources or “orbits” to ensure the proper
operation of its Park and Meet-Me functionality. Some PBX systems allow “station park”
or the ability of a particular station to park a call on itself and then pick the call up from
a second station. However, as the number of calls that can be placed on station park is
limited to one, the use of station park is not acceptable for APS Custom operation. The
APS Custom must be able to free up the service port for subsequent incoming calls after
a particular call has been parked. Station park does not allow this to occur. For more
detailed information on park orbits, refer to section 2.1, Understanding System Require-
ments and section 3.2.3, Setting PBX Parameters. For more information on Park and
Meet-Me functionality, see section 5.5, Sending a Page. Park orbits are supervised.
When the orbit times out, the call is sent to the coverage extension (e.g., the operator).
