THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
USER ORIENTATION
Lifting the handset on your telephone will provide the iDCS system with dial
tone. This is also referred to as internal or intercom dial tone. To get an out-
side line from the telephone company, dial an access code, usually the digit
“9.” To call another station in your system, simply dial its extension number.
See your system directory list for other access codes and extension num-
bers.
HOOKFLASH
Throughout this guide, you will see references to “hookflash.” A hookflash is
a momentary operation of the hookswitch required for a feature operation.
Some telephones have a FLASH key. This key may be pressed instead of
the hookswitch.
C.O. LINES
Lines from the telephone company are “C.O. lines.” Calls on these lines are
referred to as “outside calls.” These C.O. lines are accessed by dialing an
access code. For example, dial 9 to get a local outside line or dial 800–8XX
for other line groups. Each line in the system is numbered beginning with
701, and then 702, 703, etc. To get a specific line, dial its three digit line num-
ber. If Least Cost Routing (LCR) is programmed into the system, you will only
be required to dial 9.
DISTINCTIVE RINGING
The iDCS system provides distinctive ring patterns to your phone:
• Outside calls have a single ring tone repeated.
• Intercom calls have a double ring tone repeated.
• Door phone calls and alarm/appointment reminders have a triple ring
tone repeated.
