GCA70–226 Answering Calls Making A Call Pick-Up Often, the installer arranges several telephones together in a user group. If your telephone is so arranged, you can answer calls that are ringing at other stations within your particular group. Also, you can answer a call that is ringing at any telephone in the system if you know the telephone’s extension number.
Answering Calls GCA70–226 Responding To A Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announcement Your installer can set your LCD speakerphone to receive a Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announcement (SOHVA). This feature allows an intercom caller to break into your call by making an announcement through your handset receiver.
GCA70–226 Making Calls Making Calls Dialing Automatically This feature provides one- or two-button speed dialing using programmable buttons at which you have previously stored numbers. Two levels of number storage are available at each storage location, and you can use one or both levels as needed. Further, since you usually store a line choice as part of a speed dial number, line selection is automatic with speed dialing.
Making Calls GCA70–226 Dialing Manually You can manually dial a number over any telephone line you select. Or, if the installer assigned a prime line or the idle line preference feature to your LCD speakerphone, it will automatically select a line for use when you lift the handset.
Page 29
GCA70–226 Making Calls • To automatically redial the last dialed number once a minute for 10 minutes, 1. If you hear a busy tone or ring no answer, press ARDL. 2. When called party answers, lift the handset (you must do this to disengage the redial feature).
Making Calls GCA70–226 Using Line Groups Some systems have telephone lines arranged into line groups. These line groups are available at each telephone. Your attendant can tell you how your system is arranged. When line groups are available for your use, you may access them for outside calling instead of pressing a line button to select an individual line for use.
GCA70–226 Making Calls Waiting For A Line (Queuing) If all the lines in a line group are busy, you can place your telephone in a queue to await an idle line. When you share a line with another telephone and the line is busy, you can place your telephone in a queue to await the idle line.
Making Calls GCA70–226 Making Intercom Calls You can dial an intercom extension manually from the dial pad or automatically using a direct station select (DSS) button that you have previously programmed. There are two methods for making an intercom call. One causes the called telephone to ring. The other causes your voice to sound out at the called telephone.

Making Calls GCA70–226 3.10 Overriding A Call Or A Do Not Disturb Condition At Another Telephone (Executive Override) You can override a call in progress or a Do Not Disturb condition at another telephone if the system installer has enabled the executive override feature at your telephone.
GCA70–226 Making Calls 3.11 Making A Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announcement (SOHVA) You can make a subdued voice announcement to another station that is off-hook and busy on a call if the system is arranged to provide this feature. Your telephone provides a SOHVA interactive button for this purpose.
GCA70–226 Placing Calls On Hold Placing Calls On Hold Holding Calls You can place a call on hold and pick it back up a short time later. With a regular hold, you can either pick up the held call at your telephone or another user can pick the call up at another telephone that shares the held call line with your telephone.
Page 40
Placing Calls On Hold GCA70–226 • To place a call on hold, 1. While on the call, press HOLD. • To retrieve a held call, 1. Press line button of the held call (with flashing light), —OR— press TAP. NOTE: Unless you use your HOLD button to scroll through the calls on hold, TAP always retrieves the last number placed on hold, regardless of whether you have line appearance for the line on which the call is holding.
GCA70–226 Placing Calls On Hold Often, you will have more than one call on hold at your station. You know that you can retrieve the last call placed on hold simply by pressing TAP; however, if you do not have line appearance for a line on which another call is holding, the system provides a way for you to access that call before servicing the last call that you placed on hold.
Placing Calls On Hold GCA70–226 Parking Calls You can place a call on hold in the system so that it can be answered from any station that does not have a line appearance for the call. You accomplish this by placing the call in one of nine park orbits, where the call remains until it is answered.
GCA70–226 Placing Calls On Hold Handling Park Recalls When a parked call times out of the system, it will return to your telephone in the form of a park recall (you will hear four short tone bursts at 12-second intervals). Your LCD will indicate that the call is a park recall and will identify the orbit from which the recall originated.
GCA70–226 Transferring Calls Transferring Calls Transferring Calls—Screened You can answer a call at your LCD speakerphone and transfer it to another telephone. If you first identify the caller to the party receiving the transfer (giving that user the opportunity to prepare for the call), you have made a screened transfer.
Page 46
Transferring Calls GCA70–226 • If the intercom party is busy, take one of the following steps (if made available at your telephone by installer programming): 1. Press RECON to reconnect the call to your station. 2. Press SOHVA to interrupt the call and tell the intercom party that a call awaits.
GCA70–226 Transferring Calls Transferring Calls—Unscreened You can answer a call at your LCD speakerphone and transfer it to another telephone. If you transfer the call without first announcing it, you have made an unscreened transfer. If the telephone to which you are transferring the call is busy, you must recover the call yourself or choose one of several options that may be available at your station.
Transferring Calls GCA70–226 Making A Hot Transfer A hot transfer is a type of screened transfer. To perform a hot transfer, you voice announce the transfer over the speaker of the telephone that you want to receive the transfer, and release the call to that telephone. The system handles the release in a way that does not require the called party to retrieve the call (the call does not ring at the station).
GCA70–226 Transferring Calls Transferring Calls Using Quick Transfer When the quick transfer method has been programmed by the installer, it allows you to do an automatic screened or unscreened transfer of an incoming line call without pressing the Transfer/Conference button. The transfer occurs automatically whenever you answer a call and then dial the intercom number for the transfer location.
GCA70–226 Conferencing Calls Conferencing Calls Conferencing Telephones Together When you join your LCD speakerphone together with several other telephones on the same call, the result is called conferencing. When using the DXP system, you can make conference calls that involve up to five parties, including you as the originating party, in any combination of outside lines and intercom parties.

When a person in the group uses a line for which others have the same line appearance, the system keeps the call private (others cannot join the conversation by pressing the line button of the line being used).
GCA70–226 Using The Other Telephone Features 7.11 Monitoring A Conversation Between Two Telephones (Service Observing) If your LCD speakerphone provides the installer–programmed service observing feature, you can use it to monitor a conversation or activity at another telephone in an undetected manner.
