1.00 Answering by the ANSWER
Key
Description
The attendant can answer an incoming call
displayed on the answer field by pressing the
ANSWER key. An incoming call appears on the
answer field in preferential order, that is assigned
by the system programming in advance.
For instance, if CO calls are assigned for higher
preference than extension calls and if an
extension call arrives first and then a CO call
arrives, the answer field displays the extension
call first, then changes to show the CO call as
soon as it reaches.
