About Your Direct-Line Console

Line and DSS Buttons

Your console's line buttons and/or DSS buttons are
preprogrammed and labeled for specific functions,
depending on the way your system has been set up.
Line Buttons
The BIS-22D has 22 line buttons and the BIS-34, BIS-34D,
and MERLIN II System Display Console have 34 line buttons.
Two or more of your line buttons are programmed as either
Intercom (ICOM) or System Access (SA) buttons. You
cannot have both. ICOM and SA buttons provide two options
for call announcement, depending on how they are
programmed:
Ring button — when you call another extension on a
Ring button, the telephone at that extension rings.
Voice — when you call another extension on a Voice
button, the person at that extension hears a beep, and
then your voice on his or her speakerphone.
In order to assist in transfers, your telephone may have been
programmed with a line button labeled Orig Only. This
button is used only to make calls, and can be set to make
either Ring or Voice calls.
