Holding Calls

While  a  call  is  connected,  the  user  can  place  the  call  on  hold  using  one  of  the  following  methods:  

Pressing  the  Hold  soft  key;  this  holds  only  the  highlighted  call  on  the  screen  

Pressing  the  feature  key  that  has  been  assigned  the  Hold  function;  this  holds  all  calls  that  are  in  a  holdable  

state  

Resuming Calls

While  a  call  is  holding,  the  user  may  resume  the  call  using  one  of  the  following  methods:  

Pressing  the  “Resume”  soft  key;  this  resumes  only  the  highlighted  call  on  the  screen  

Pressing  the  call  key  that  hosts  the  call  to  resume;  this  resumes  the  call  only  if  it  is  in  the  Holding  State  as  

indicated  by  the  key's  LED  blinking  pattern  (slowly  in  red)  

 
Note  that  unlike  Hold,  there  is  no  Resume  function  that  can  be  assigned  to  a  feature  key.  Instead  a  "conference"  
function  is  available  for  resuming  calls  to  join  a  conversation,  which  is  discussed  when  we  describe  the  multi-­‐party  
conference  call  feature.  

Bringing a Call to the Foreground

Operations  that  bring  a  call  to  the  foreground  include:  

Resuming  a  call  using  the  Resume  soft  key  

Answering  a  call  

Making  a  new  call  by  on-­‐hook  dialing,  dialing  from  speed  dial,  phonebook,  call  history,  etc.  

Invoking  dial  tone  by  off-­‐hooking,  pressing  a  call  key  or  a  line  monitoring  feature  key  

 
Right  before  carrying  out  a  foregrounding  operation,  the  phone  automatically  applies  the  following  routine  
operation  on  all  other  calls  in  the  system  based  on  their  respective  call  states  at  that  moment:  

Calls  in  Connected  State:  hold  them  

Calls  in  Ringing  or  Holding  State:  leave  them  alone  

Calls  in  other  states:  end  them
