Direct Extension Selection (DXS) With Busy Lamp Field (BLF) console.
The models are identical except for the DXS/BLF option.
Basic Console
The basic console (Figure 2-1) is designed for "switched loop" operation; that is, the calls
are put in a queue and automatically switched to the first available idle loop. The basic
console includes the following:
Two handset/headset jacks— Located on the right and left sides of the console. To
move the handset cradle from one side to the other, unscrew the knurled knob, and
move the cradle to the opposite side. When the handset or headset is disconnected,
power is removed from the console, taking it out of service. If a continuous audible
tone occurs when the handset or headset is connected, operate the TEST switch
located in front of the console to turn off the tone.
Touch-tone dial
6 loop buttons and 30
BUSY, RING, and ANS
calls.
24 trunk group select
that provide direct trunk access by pressing a button.
Test-reminder tone switch—Used to test console lights and to turn off audible
signals.
Volume control wheel—Adjusts the level of audible signals on the console.
Receive level control wheel—Adjusts the volume in the earpiece as an aid for
hearing-impaired attendants.
Storage area—Contains a plastic card for you to write codes or other reference
information that might be needed quickly.
You can complete calls to extension numbers on the basic console by pressing an idle loop
button, pressing
[START]
status lights (five for each loop)— HOLD, ATND (attendant),
