Call Progress Displays

tion that is helpful and, in some cases, invaluable in keeping you in-
formed of what is happening and who is calling. In some cases you
are prompted to take an action and in others you receive information
on the call.

Directory Information

A directory name of up to 11 characters can be assigned to each ex-
tension. If assigned, you can view the name of a calling extension
before answering, and your name will be displayed on any display
keysets you call. See Setting Extension Names, below. For example:

[CALL FROM 203]

Smith


Similarly, outside lines can have a directory name of up to 11 charac-

appropriate greetings.

Outside and internal calls ringing to an extension group will display

[CALL FOR XXX]

XXX

is the extension group number (e.g.

501). This allows you to answer calls directed to your group in a dif-
ferent way to calls directed to your extension.
