Locally Controlled mode
Local-controlled mode means that the Remote Office 9150 unit at your site
controls the following:
n
calls to other stations at this site
n
calls that are made to or received from your community through your local
telephone service provider
Relationship between host-controlled and locally controlled modes
Both the host-controlled and locally controlled modes can be used at the same
time. When placing or receiving calls, the call modes are controlled by the
following telephone keys:
n
the host call appearance key (also known as the primary DN key)
n
the local call appearance key (can sometimes be referred to as the
secondary DN key)
Host call appearance key
The host call appearance key is the main key you use to place and receive calls.
For example, if someone from Finance at Head Office calls you, the call rings on
this key. Similarly, if you need to call someone in Payroll at Head Office, you
place the call on this key.
Local call appearance key
The local call appearance key is the key you use to place and receive local calls.
For example, if your office is working overtime and everyone wants pizza, you
call the pizza delivery place on the local call appearance key. Similarly, you use
this key if you want to call one of your customers or suppliers or someone else at
your site.
Your telephone can have up to two local call appearance keys. Your system
administrator can tell you where these keys are and how they are labeled.
