Conferencing Stations Together

Station users can set up conferences between their station and up to three other parties (either lines or stations as
needed) across the network nodes; however, the system does not support the display of the network extension
names during conferencing arrangements.
Dialing Intercom Numbers
Users accomplish intra-node and inter-node intercom dialing in the same manner. They pick up the intercom and
dial the number. The network system verifies the number as valid and returns an error tone to the caller if the
number is invalid. When the called station starts ringing, the distant node returns ring-back tone to the calling
station.
•
When encountering a ring, no-answer (RNA) condition, the caller can perform any of these actions:
•
terminate the call,
•
set a message waiting light on the called station by dialing the appropriate code or by pressing the
appropriate button,
•
set a call-back feature by dialing the appropriate code or by pressing the appropriate button,
•
leave a voice mail message if the system is configured for voice mail.
(If the calling station detects the presence of a voice mail port, its display provides an interactive button
for users to select the voice mail option. When pressed, the display directs users to the appropriate voice
mail box.)
•
When encountering a busy signal (the busy signal is generated at the local node), the caller can perform these
actions:
•
terminate the call,
•
set a message waiting light on the called station by dialing the appropriate code or by pressing the
appropriate button.
NOTE: Callers can neither camp-on at another station and remain off-hook waiting for an answer nor employ the
do not disturb override feature through the network feature.
Station users answer intercom calls in the same manner whether the calls are intra-network or inter-network.
Further, they can press the Do Not Disturb (DND) button to reject these calls if they wish.
Inter-node voice announce intercom calling is available if programmers have enabled the feature at both the
originating and receiving systems and if the receiving stations do not have the voice announce block feature
enabled.

Forwarding Calls

•
The inter-node call forwarding scheme can be of any type where the originator dials the call forwarding code
followed by the extension number of the destination station. The network system returns an error tone if the
remote extension does not exist, if more that three forwarding hops are set. The station user can set RNA call
forwarding by dialing the RNA forwarding code followed by the extension number. In the case of RNA call
forwarding, a looped forwarding scheme is acceptable.
•
The user at the station that sets a call forwarding configuration can clear it by dialing the appropriate code.
