Signaling allows a user to signal another telephone without making a call to the
extension. The meaning of the signal can be prearranged between the sending
and receiving users. There are two types of Signaling:
Signaling (also called Manual Signaling)
Notify
With Signaling, a multiline telephone user can send an audible signal to another
telephone. To use the feature, the user presses a programmed Signaling button
without lifting the handset. An audible tone is heard at the destination telephone
for as long as the sender holds the button down.
In addition to sending an audible signal, the Signaling button can be used to
see the status of the destination telephone. When the destination telephone user
lifts the handset or uses Do Not Disturb, the green LED next to the Signaling
button goes on.
The user can also use a Signaling button to automatically dial the destination
telephone extension. However, the user must select a line and lift the handset or
press Speaker before dialing an extension by using a Signaling button. Auto Dial
automatically selects a line and activates the speakerphone.
With Notify, a multiline telephone user can send a visual signal to another
telephone. For the feature to be used, a Send button must be programmed at
the signal sender's telephone and a Receive button must be programmed at the
signal receiver's telephone.
