Group Listening
This feature allows users to turn on the speaker while using the handset. It allows a group of people
to listen to the distant party over the speaker without the microphone turned on.
Headset Operation
Every keyset can be programmed to allow the use of a headset. In the headset mode, the hookswitch
is disabled and the ANS/RLS key is used to answer and release calls. Keyset users may turn headset
operation ON/OFF by keyset programming or more easily by pressing the headset ON/OFF key.
The headset key lights steady red when the keyset is in headset mode. The ANS/RLS key lights if
headset mode is activated by keyset programming only.
Line Queuing with Callback
When the desired outside line is busy, the user can press the CALLBACK key or dial the access code
to place his/her station in a queue. The user will be called back when the line is available (a
maximum of 100 callbacks are allowed system-wide at one time including busy station and busy
trunk).
Line Skipping
When the user is talking on an outside line and the automatic hold feature is turned off, he/she may
press an idle line key and skip to that line without causing the previous call to go on hold.
Loud Ringing Interface
The MISC daughter board has 1 relay for control of a customer provided loud ringing device. This
relay can be programmed to operate with a specific station or station group.
Manual Signalling (iDCS-L version software only)
Keysets can signal each other via a programmable key. This allows one station to alert another
without establishing a voice conversation. Each press of the key results in a 500 milliseconds of ring
tone being set to the intended station. An individual manual signaling key must be programmed for
each station to be signaled.
Message Waiting Light/Indication
When a message indication is left at a keyset, the MESSAGE button will slowly flash red. Single line
telephones will receive a distinctive dial tone to notify them that a message is waiting. Message
waiting indications can be left for any station or group of stations.
Mute Microphone/Handset
Any keyset user can mute the keyset's handset transmitter by pressing the MUTE key. In addition,
keyset users can also mute the keyset microphone while the keyset is in speakerphone mode.
Off-Hook Ringing
When a keyset is in use, the system will provide an off-hook ring signal to indicate that another call is
waiting. The ring signal is a single ring repeated. The interval is controlled by a system-wide timer.
Single line stations will receive a tone burst through the handset receiver instead of a ring.
