Analog stations

If your station has been installed as an analog station, it will be able to use only a standard-type
telephone. Because the phone isn't integrated to the phone system (like the ESI Feature Phones), its
operation and capabilities will be different.
Note: The following ESI system features are not available to analog stations:
• Call forwarding.
• Call-forwarding/no-answer.
• DND.
• Exclusive hold.
• Call recording.
• Overhead paging access (unless overhead paging is included in a paging zone).
Tip:
To use a non-ESI cordless phone in conjunction with an ESI Feature Phone, program a programmable
feature key (or use CFWD) to easily forward calls to the cordless phone when out of your office. Have
the Installer program the cordless phone's station programming to forward unanswered calls to your
ESI Feature Phone's mailbox.
Using FLASH
A flash-hook, or FLASH — a momentary break in the connection — is required to perform many of the
station operations below. You can generate a FLASH by momentarily depressing the hook switch (or, if
your phone is so equipped, press the special key on your phone).

Caller ID

If you subscribe to Caller ID from your telephone service provider, the Caller ID display will show an
outside caller's name and/or number.
caller status — such as UNAVAILABLE, PRIVATE, or NO DATA SENT.
On internal station-to-station calls, the Caller ID display will show the extension number as the calling
number, and the station name as the caller's name. On Esi-Link calls, the Caller ID display will show the
location number and extension as the calling number, and the remote location's station name and "short
3
name"
as the caller's name.
Note: Caller ID will not display with call-waiting.

Placing calls

When you first lift the handset you will hear internal dial tone. Dial 9 (or 8 or 71–76) to access an outside
line and dial the number. To place an internal call, simply dial the extension number, department
number, etc.

If you're not sure about the installation of your station, contact your administrator.

If you don't subscribe to Caller ID, the display will show (instead of the caller's name or number) which line is receiving the call.

For example, the Installer might have programmed "DAL" as the short name for a remote location in Dallas.
