Features
Direct Station Selector
A DSS button can represent one of the following:
Local extension number
Non-local extension number
Line/trunk number (801–880)
Pool dial-out code (Hybrid/PBX mode only)
Calling group extension number
Paging group extension number
Operator park zone extension number
Access code (usually 9) for ARS or Idle Line Preference
Remote access dial code
LDN (the extension for the QCC queue)
The use and definition of each DSS button's LED depend on the local extension
represented by the button and whether the operator position is used for normal
call handling, calling group or CMS supervisory operation, Extension Status in
Hotel configuration, or message status operation. See
page 317
Normal Call-Handling Operation
Normal call-handling operation is active when the position is not in Message
Status or Extension Status operation. The DSS buttons are used for one-touch
dialing of local or non-local extension numbers. When a button for a local or non-
local telephone extension, local or non-local calling group extension, or local
paging group extension is pressed, the extension number is dialed automatically.
In Hybrid/PBX mode, a specific pool can be selected by pressing the DSS button
for a local pool dial-out code or dialing the local ARS code by pressing the DSS
button for the ARS code. If, before lifting the handset, a DSS button is pressed for
any of the extensions or codes mentioned above, the speaker is turned on
automatically and an SA or ICOM button is selected.
A DSS button is also used to activate a feature that requires a local extension
number—for example, Barge-In, Conference, Send/Remove Message, Forward
(including Remote Call Forwarding), Follow Me, Leave Message, Reminder
service, and Transfer. To do this, the Feature button is pressed, the feature code
dialed, and the DSS button for the extension number selected.
