Strata CT Standard Telephone User Guide November 2001
If a number is not dialled, the system automatically causes
the DISA Exchange line to ring at telephones as a normal
incoming call. Then, if the call is not answered within 15
seconds after the ringing starts it disconnects.
To call another station after completing a DISA station
call, the internal party must transfer you. Station Paging
and System Paging cannot be made on DISA calls.
If the call is not answered after 6 rings or 24 seconds,
whichever occurs first, you hear busy tone.
