4-32 System Features
Two types of inside dial tone are offered, which make it easy to distinguish an
inside line from an outside trunk—system internal dial tone (the factory setting)
and outside trunk dial tone.
Some software applications, such as voice messaging systems, or hardware,
such as modems, do not recognize the internal dial tone. In this case, change
the system so that inside dial tone is the same as the outside dial tone to allow
recognition by a third-party system.
Consult with AT&T or an authorized representative to help guide your decision.
Planning Form Instructions
Under the "Inside Dial Tone" heading on Form 6f, do one of the following:
Check "Inside" to keep the factory-set system internal dial tone.
Check "Outside" to change the dial tone to match the outside trunk dial
tone.
Through Reminder Service operators can have the system place reminder calls
to people at preset times. For example, a hotel operator can set the time for a
wake-up call to a room telephone. Reminder times can be set and canceled for
any telephone in the system.
Reminder Service also allows regular telephone users to use the telephone like
an alarm clock to remind them of an appointment or meeting. Users can set and
cancel their own reminder times on their telephones.
You can set a time so that all reminders are canceled at that time every day—for
example, at the end of the business day when all users have gone home and
are not available to receive reminders.
Planning Form Instructions
Under the "Reminder Service Cancel" heading on Form 6f, do one of the
following:
Check "No" if you do not want to set a Reminder Service cancel time.
Check the second box to set a time to cancel all reminders in the system.
Write the time of day in the space provided.
The factory setting for calls made to unassigned extension numbers by Remote
Access users or on Direct Inward Dial (DID) or dial-in tie trunks is that the calls
are redirected to the primary operator.
