Toggle Calls
Toggle Calls cycles round each call that the user has On Hold to their extension locally within the system,
presenting them one at a time to the user.
Hold Call Waiting
Hold Call Waiting is a compound feature combining hold and answer and provides a convenient way to hold an
existing call and answer a waiting call through a single button press.
Hold Music (Music on Hold)
The IP Office system supports up to 4 sources of music on hold – system sources which may be external: one
system source plus 3 additional external sources using analog extensions. Internal (WAV) or tone plus up to 3
additional internal sources. The internal sources are .WAV files saved either in volatile memory, or on the
optional memory card in an IP500 and IP406 V2. The .WAV file must be 16bit PCM mono and sampled at 8Khz
with a maximum duration of 30 seconds.
Alternate sources for music on hold are selectable for use by Incoming Call Routes or Hunt Groups. On IP500,
and IP500 V2 systems, each source can be up to 90 seconds long.
External music on hold sources connect to the 3.5mm Audio socket on all IP Office control units, or configured
analog extensions.
Park
As an alternative to placing a call on hold, a call can be parked on the system to be picked by another user.
The call park facility is available through the user's telephone, Avaya one-X™ Portal for IP Office, Phone
Manager or SoftConsole. Calls are Parked against a 'park slot number' which can be announced over a paging
system so the person the call is for can go to any phone and collect the call by dialing the park slot number.
For convenience Phone Manager has 4 pre-defined park buttons. On digital telephones with DSS/BLF keys it is
possible to program Park keys that will indicate when there is a call in a particular park slot and allow calls to be
parked or retrieved.
There is a system configurable timeout that determines how long a call may remain parked before it is re-
presented to the extension that originally parked the call.

key. Callback when free can also be activated from Phone Manager.
