Placing Calls - AT&T SYSTEM 25 User Manual

Placing Calls

You can place two general types of calls from the console:
• Inside calls - calls to stations inside your system.
• Outside calls - calls to parties on the outside;
sometimes referred to as trunk calls.
Outgoing calls use the loops terminated on the five
<LOOP> buttons on the upper left face of the console.
Several methods are available for placing calls.
