Call Barring / Call Restrictions The Orchid KS616 has a very flexible Call Restrictions package which should enable you reduce your phone Bill by eliminating unnecessary calls. For example you can restrict individual or all extensions from calling premium rate numbers, International numbers, mobile numbers or calls to the speaking clock or Directory Inquires.

Auto Attendant (DISA) All lines or individual lines can be programmed for Auto Attendant Mode (AA). In AA mode the KS616 answers incoming callers and they will hear your personalised Outgoing Message (OGM). This enables you to instruct your callers to Dial 201 for Sales, 202 for accounts etc, or 0 for the Operator.
Assign operator extension(s) for the Auto Attendant mode When the caller dials 0 for the operator, extension 202 will ring, if 202 is busy extension 203 will ring. You can program the extensions of your choice for Operator 1 or Operator 2, which will answer if Operator 1 is busy.
