THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Lifting the handset on your phone provides system dial tone. To get an outside line
from the telephone company, dial an ac
cess code (usually the digit 9 in the UK).
Check with your system administrator if you are not sure of this code. To call an-
other station in your system, simply dial its extension number. See also
System
Access Codes , below.
RECALL, FLASH & HOOKFLASH
Th roughout this guide, you will see references to the Recall key. This key is re-
quired for feature operation. Some telephones use FLASH instead of RECALL. The
same effect can be achieved by a “hookflash.” This is a momentary operation of the
hookswitch.
C.O. LINES
Lines from the Telephone Company are called “Central Office” (C.O.) lines. Calls on
these lines are referred to as outside or external calls. These C.O. lines are ac-
cessed by dialling an access code. For example, in the UK, dial 9 to get a local
outside line. To get a specific line, dial the 3- or 4-digit line number. Each line in the
system is numbered beginning with 701 (or 7001), then 702 (7002), 703 (7003) and
so on. If Least Cost Routing (LCR) is programmed into the system, you need only
dial 9.
Your system administrator can tell you what lines are available and how to access
them.
DISTINCTIVE RINGING
iDCS500 provides distinctive ring patterns to your phone:
l External calls have a double ring tone repeated
l Internal calls have a single ring tone repeated
l Doorphone calls and alarm/appointment reminders have a short triple ring
tone rapidly repeated.
