Extension Forced Idle
When an extension is forced idle, no calls can be made or received on that
extension. The following procedures can be performed only when the extension
being programmed is idle:
Assign call restrictions
Assign pool dial-out restrictions
Copy extension assignments
Assign lines, trunks, or pools to extensions
Assign labels to a personal directory
Use centralized telephone programming
When the extension is forced idle, the following occurs: multiline telephone users
hear a reminder tone that indicates the telephone cannot be used; display
telephone users see the message Wait: System Busy; single-line telephone
users do not hear a dial tone.
Forced Idle Reminder Tone
The forced idle reminder tone is a high-low "door-telephone" tone
667 Hz tone followed by 400 ms of 571 Hz tone. The tone is provided under the
following circumstances:
At the extension, to remind the user that the system or the extension is in
the forced idle state.
At the programming console or at a PC running SPM, to remind the system
manager that the system (or at least one extension) is in the forced idle
state because of administrative activity.
In Release 1.1 and higher of the communications system, forced idle reminder
tones occur every 20 seconds. You can adjust the volume of these tones with the
volume control on the system console.
