8.11 Direct Inward Station Dialing
(DISD)
The direct inward station dialing (DISD) feature allows an external
party to call an intercom station directly without assistance from the
attendant (over a line programmed for DISD). As the system
attendant, you may instruct callers to make DISD calls when nec-
essary.
You may give the caller a DISD line number and the extension
number associated with the station he or she is trying to reach. Future
calls from the caller to a specific party will not have to be serviced at
the attendant’s station, although a ring-no answer or busy condition at
the called party’s station will result in the system’s handling the call
in another manner (described below).
When a caller makes a DISD call from an outside line, he or she will
initially hear ringing. The system will answer the call with a DISD
continuous dial tone; the caller can then dial an extension number.
• If called station is idle, tone is sounded and called station rings.
• If the call is answered by another station user, the caller can ask
for transfer to desired station.
• If ringing stops and dial tone sounds again, the caller can dial
another extension number.
• If called station has call forward feature set, forward station
rings.
