Guest Calls
When a guest calls you from the lobby phone panel, the telephones in your home will ring
with one long ring and then continue with two short rings (RING - RING) instead of the
standard long ring (R I I I I I I I N G). If you have a telephone with caller ID capability, the
number displayed will identify the call as from the lobby panel or the concierge.

Granting or Denying Access
To allow your guest access, press “9” on your touch-tone telephone. Some phones emit a
very short tone. In these cases, you may have to press 9 twice in rapid succession. To deny
a guest access, press the # key and hang-up.
Call Waiting
If you are on an outside call when a guest calls you from the lobby, you will hear a short tone
in your telephone handset. Press “3” to place your outside call on hold. The system will
automatically connect you with the lobby panel. If you wish to grant your guest access, press
“9” on your telephone. The system will unlock the lobby door and automatically switch you
back to your outside call. If you wish to deny your guest access, press the “3” key again and
the system will switch back to your outside call without unlocking the lobby door.
Do Not Disturb
The do-not-disturb feature will prevent calls from the lobby or concierge to your telephone
during certain hours of the day. For example, the default do-not-disturb schedule is 12:00
AM to 6:00 AM Sunday through Saturday. The system administrator may modify this
schedule to meet your specific needs. The do-not-disturb feature and all scheduling can only
be set up by the system administrator. Contact your system administrator for more
information.
Call Forwarding
The call forwarding feature can automatically forward calls from the lobby to another
telephone. The system administrator must be notified to turn call forwarding on or off. There
are certain restrictions to this feature and all call forwarding numbers and time schedules
must be set up by the system administrator. Contact your system administrator for more
information.
Access Code
Your system may be equipped with an access code that will allow you to open the door / gate
by entering this code on the system keypad. Your system administrator will advise you of
your access code if this option is available. To use the access code, first press the # key,
and then enter the four digit code.
