A DLC's SA calls can be controlled by a CTI application. When they are,
the DLC position functions like any other MLX or analog multiline
extension that is using a CTI application. An outside call to the position
initiates screen pop at the DLC extension.
Calls to DLCs not using a CTI application do not initiate screen pop at the
operator extension but when transferred or conferenced—even if they
arrive on the DLCs personal line button—do initiate screen pop at a
destination extension using a CTI application. However, calls transferred
from a DLC's programmed Cover button do not initiate screen pop, even
at screen-pop-capable destinations.
An operator with an MLX DLC can use all Directory features.
The green LED next to an Auto Dial or DSS button on a DLC turns on
when a user activates Do Not Disturb. In Release 2.0 and later systems,
an operator can inspect a DSS button with a red LED on to see whether
the local extension is busy or using Do Not Disturb. If the user at the
extension has turned on Do Not Disturb, the Do Not Disturb message is
posted and appears on the operator's display. The message may also
mean that the user has posted the message without turning on the
feature.
Extension Status capability can be assigned to DLCs only. In Hotel
configuration, only a DLC operator can change an extension to Status 0.
In the Group Calling/Call Management System configuration, a calling
group or CMS supervisor uses a DLC to monitor and change group
member status.
A DLC operator can forward calls to local and non-local extensions and, if
the capability is assigned in system programming, to outside telephone
numbers. In Key mode, because outside lines are assigned as personal
line buttons on the console, the ability to forward calls received on each
outside line (excluding loop-start lines with unreliable disconnect) to an
outside number must also be assigned by system programming; it can be
assigned to only one telephone for each individual line/trunk. In addition,
the DLC must be designated as the principal user. In Hybrid/PBX mode, it
can be assigned to multiple telephones for each pool.
A DLC can be a member of a calling group; it is used in the calling group
supervisor position.
