LS-ID Delay Option
The LS-ID Delay option is available through the 800 GS/LS-ID, 408 GS/LS-ID-
MLX, and 412 LS-ID-ETR modules and is programmed for each trunk. (Although
the 408 GS/LS-ID-MLX module has been used in releases prior to Release 7.0, its
Caller ID functionality is supported only in Release 7.0 and later systems. The 412
LS-ID-ETR module is available in Release 7.0 and later systems.) The LS-ID
Delay option prevents applications and adjuncts from answering before the Caller
ID information is processed.
Use the LS-ID Delay option only if the following conditions apply:
If the adjunct or application cannot be programmed to answer on the
second or later ring, see the documentation for the adjunct or application.
If the first option applies (as with headsets using Auto Answer All) and line
buttons receiving Caller ID cannot be programmed for Delay Ring—for
example, Auto Attendants.
NOTES:
It is recommended that trunks with the LS-ID Delay option be used as
incoming trunks only.
If no delay is programmed, the caller may hear one or two extra bursts of
ringback while the person receiving the call has not yet heard a ring.
If the option is programmed on a two-way trunk, the system will not
seize a trunk from the pool for an outgoing call when that trunk is
receiving an incoming call.
Use the LS-ID Delay option if the adjunct or application does not allow
line buttons to be set for Delay Ring.
If the option is programmed on a trunk programmed as a Group Calling
trunk, the system will not dispense the call to either the Group Calling
queue or to any calling group member until either the LS-ID Delay timer
expires or the system software is informed that ICLID information is
unavailable.
