Using Telephones - Lucent Technologies PARTNER Advanced Communications System Programming And Use Instructions

While on a call on a standard phone, you can use the system phone's
dialpad and fixed-feature buttons to handle calls. For example, you can use
the system phone to select a specific outside line or pool, and conduct the
call on the standard phone. Or, if someone is on a call using the standard
phone, someone else can put that call on hold by pressing
system phone. To do this, it is not necessary to lift the handset of the
system phone. Held calls do not ring back at a standard phone in a
combination extension. To retrieve a held call from the standard phone, use
Direct Line Pickup—Active Line.
A standard phone's message light will not light when Background Music is
playing through the system phone's speaker.
If you have Caller ID, only system display phones show the Caller ID
information.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) of a standard device or the
combined REN of two devices cannot be greater than 2.0. (The REN of a
system phone is 0.0.)
