Lines
Basically every line in a multiline telephone functions as an individual tele-
phone (except lines on Direct Station Select key) so that all features on
"single-line" telephones can be transferred to each individual line. As soon
as a line is active, the relevant details are displayed.
Although a multiline telephone supports simultaneous use of several lines,
it functions in almost the same way as a single-line telephone. The differ-
ence with a multiline telephone is that the line is selected automatically.
With multiline telephones, however, you can also manually select the line
using the line key that has been assigned to it. For an explanation of the
line key status indication please see page
Line Seizure
A multiline telephone line is seized if the line key LED is lit, blinking or flick-
ering and information about the line appears in the display.
You can change the mode as follows:
•
Pressing a line key to seize the line.
•
A line is seized with an incoming call.
•
A line is free when it becomes idle or is put on hold manually.
•
The multiline telephone selects another suitable line for seizure. If a
suitable line is not available, a line is not seized.
•
A line remains seized even when a connection is released following
consultation.
All procedures that were initiated via the menu or the function keys refer
to the line that is seized. All audio functions (for example when toggling be-
tween handset and speakerphone mode) apply to the active line.
If you have seized a secondary line, this line remains reserved for
you to dial for a period of time programmed by administrator. Dur-
ing this time the line cannot be seized by another party whose
telephone is also programmed to use the secondary line.
