Answering a Call
Incoming calls are announced at the terminal in two ways.
1. If your terminal is idle, it will ring. If you are already on a call,
you will hear a camp-on tone.
2. The word "Ringing" appears on the Active Call Box. If a
trunk is ringing, the trunk number appears in the Pending Calls Box
and is indicated by 4 and the 3-digit line number. If your system is
equipped with Caller ID, the calling party's number will appear.
Incoming calls are automatically connected to the Operator when the
RLS key is pressed. Pressing the RLS key while you are on a call disconnects
that call and connects the call ringing in.
To answer a call, lift the handset and press "RLS". The call
will now appear in the Active Call Box.
To disconnect, press the RLS key. As noted above, if another call is
ringing, RLS will disconnect the first call and automatically connect
to the new one.

Paging
Used to broadcast an announcement, the page is heard through telephone
speakers and/or through an external paging system. The operator's extension

zones or can be used with the dial pad to select the zone (61-69 with

for configuration information.

with 9 zones) or the last 2 digits (for systems with 24 zones) of the
zone. After the brief tone, make the desired announcement and press
the RLS key again.

when you wish to page the call's intended recipient. When a call is

(50-59). The number of the chosen zone appears in the Calls in Progress
