Emergency Calls

This feature raises an alarm at the console when an extension
user places an emergency call and identifies the extension that
placed the call. With this information, you can direct emergency
services (for example, police or ambulance personnel) to the
location from which the call was placed.

When an emergency call alarm is raised, the console rings and
displays EMERGENCY CALL. The emergency call goes directly to
emergency services; therefore, the attendant does not have an
opportunity to verbally communicate with the person who
initiated the emergency call.
