Making Calls
Signalling on the Call Keys
"Call key" is the general term for all keys of your telephone which you use to make
calls and are called. These are feature keys or call keys with team functions (team keys
or direct call keys).
The LEDs and symbols on the call keys indicate the following states:
First call
Further call
Key seized
Call held
Team member's key seized
Calls in the Call-waiting Queue
The system administrator can configure and activate a call-waiting queue especially
for your telephone in the OpenCom 100 / Aastra 800 system. While you are making a
call, new calls can be queued. These callers first hear an announcement (if the system
administrator has preset an announcement) and then the ring tone. The number of
calls permitted in the call-waiting queue is set by the system administrator during
system configuration, 5 calls for example. When this number is reached, further
callers hear the busy tone. The calls in the queue are put through in order of priority
(baby calls, door calls, VIP calls, other internal and external calls), irrespective of the
order in which they came in.
Calls that have been in the queue for too long are removed, and the callers then hear
the busy tone. The period of time until an external call is released is set by the network
operator. In Germany this is usually two minutes and in other European countries
usually three minutes.
Your telephone can have a call-waiting queue even if it belongs to a subscriber group,
where it simultaneously affects call forwarding.
