Using GENBAND's Multiple Appearance Directory
Number - Single Call Appearance
When your phone is registered with the GENBAND server, you can use the Multiple Appearance Directory
Number – Single Call Appearance (MADN-SCA) feature to share a single line with other contacts as a
member of a Multiple Appearance Directory Number (MADN) group. System administrators assign
members to MADN groups, which can have a maximum of 32 members. Check with your system
administrator to find out if this feature is available on your phone.
Any MADN group member can place, answer, hold, resume, or barge in on a call on a shared line.
Additionally, all group members can view the status of a call on the shared line on their phones.
This section includes information and instructions on using the following MADN-SCA functions:

Placing a Call
Any MADN member can place a call on the shared line. When a member places a call on the shared line,
the other members are notified with a steady red LED light on the line key of the members' phones.
Only one call at a time can be active on the shared line. If a call is placed to the shared line with an active
call in place, the incoming call is sent to voicemail.
Answering Calls
Any incoming call to the shared line rings on all group members' phones simultaneously, the call is displayed
on all members' screens, and a green LED light flashes on the line's line key.
