Tone Or Voice Signaling On Internal Calls

Intercom number calls can be tone signaled or voice signaled as desired. Programming determines which
signaling method the system uses as the primary method when an intercom number call is made. Users
can choose the alternate method at the station by pressing the intercom key. Intercom number call
progress is marked by special tone signals.

Tracker Paging System

The Tracker Paging System interfaces a DXP system with individual Tracker pagers. The Tracker Paging
System informs users through their Tracker pagers that they have a call waiting for them. The Tracker
base station connects to any of the DXP system's serial ports or to the PC Attendant position. The DXP
can accept up to four Tracker base stations supporting up to 600 Tracker pagers. Many different types of
Tracker pagers are supported—from those with numeric displays to those that display a pre-programmed
message up to 32 alphanumeric characters long.
Creating Messages From The PC Attendant
Up to eight default messages can be programmed and delivered from the PC Attendant position only (see
the Digital Communications System PC Attendant's Console User's Guide, GCA 70-230 for instructions).
The PC attendant can be in either the local or the system mode of operation.
RNA Or Busy Tracking
If the called station fails to answer or is busy, the caller can activate the Tracker Paging System by
pressing the TRACK button on his or her telephone. The TRACK button is one of the telephone's
interactive buttons. On telephones not equipped with interactive buttons, the caller activates the Tracker
Paging System by dialing the Tracker access code (defaults to 8). When the call is accepted, the caller
will hear a confirmation tone, or if it is not accepted, a busy tone.
Direct Tracking
The caller can also do direct paging by pressing the TRACK programmed button or by dialing the
Tracker access code (defaults to
assigned extension number for the pager along with the display message Enter Ext:
Transfer Tracking
If the system attendant attempts to transfer a call to an extension that does not answer (or is busy) and
then activates the Tracker pager assigned to that extension, the incoming call is placed on a page orbit.
Once the system places the call on a page orbit, the user's Tracker pager displays the orbit number so that
he or she can retrieve the call by dialing the number of the orbit containing the call. If the user does not
retrieve the call within the pre-programmed time-out, the call returns to the attendant. The Tracker Paging
System supports up to 100 page orbits.
