15.1.26 PS—Feature Buttons
Description
Although a portable station (PS) does not feature as many buttons as a proprietary telephone (PT), a PS can
be customized to give a PS user access to PBX features, just as the flexible buttons on a PT can be customized.

15.1.27 PS—Ring Group
Description
A PS ring group is a way for several portable stations (PSs) to be notified of an incoming call simultaneously,
while using only one channel of a cell station (CS).
Normally when a PS receives a call, one channel of a CS is used to ring the PS (® 15.1.24 PS (Portable
Station)). If several PSs are members of an incoming call distribution (ICD) group, the available channels of a
CS will become busy just by ringing each PS. Assigning a group of PSs to a PS ring group alleviates this strain
on the CS because only one channel is needed to ring a PS ring group's members.
PS ring group members and related parameters are assigned through system programming, as explained
below.
a.
Floating Extension Number: When this number is called, all PSs in the group ring.
b.
Group Name: Can be displayed on a ringing PS to indicate that the incoming CO line call is a group call,
and not a call directed to the PS's extension number. This is only available when Incoming CO Line Call
Information Display is set to "Called Number".
c.
Incoming CO Line Call Information Display: Determines which information is shown on the PS display
when a group call is received. Select "Caller ID" to display the caller's telephone number or name, or
"Called Number" to display the name of the PS ring group which is receiving the call.
d.
Member PSs: Select each PS that will be a member of the corresponding PS ring group. Note that a PS
can belong to more than one PS ring group.
