A unique 2- digit access code is assigned to each paging group, which allows voice paging exclusively to the telephones assigned to that group.
20-button telephones to provide access to the same number of CO lines. Pooled Line buttons also offer “hybrid” type system operation, even while configured for “key” operation. This will also enable the STRATA DK to compete more cost effectively against hybrids. 3-60...
On DK16 systems, a power failure transfer port is provided to switch one CO line directly to a standard single line telephone. On DK24/56/96 systems, the power failure transfer module (DPFT) will transfer up to 8 CO lines to dedicated, customer-provided conventional single line telephones.
Privacy (PRV) button can activate privacy on any call in progress at that station. STRATA DK24/56/96 Release 1 or 2 systems are always private. An EKT station which has a Privacy Release (PRV RLS) button and originates a CO line call can deactivate the privacy on that line by pressing the PRV RLS button.
Relay Services for External Page or Door Lock STRATA SYSTEM FEATURES SYSTEM AVAILABILITY On DK systems, an optional relay can be used either for external page or door lock control. Not available on the S DESCRIPTION If a system has background music on an external paging system, the external page relay makes it possible to suppress the background music when a voice announcement is made over the paging system.

In the event of a power failure, the system will automatically be switched to battery power. All functions of the STRATA system will continue to operate for several hours after a loss of normal electrical power. The exact time period depends on the type and size of batteries used and on system capacity and traffic.
On the STRATA S , programming is done via Station 13. On DK24/56/96 systems, programming is done from the electronic key telephone connected to PDKU/PEKU por t 05. On DK16 systems, programming can be done through any station port.
LCD telephone when the user scrolls through System Speed Dial numbers. (See STRATA DK Electronic Telephone User Guide.) On STRATA DK systems, the station assigned to port 00 (initialized as station 200) performs these functions. Access to System Speed Dial numbers can be assigned on a station-by station basis.
Page 120
System Speed Dial SYSTEM FEATURES STRATA BENEFITS Looking up telephone numbers can be time-consuming. Errors can be made in dialing which also waste time and can be costly. By using automatic dialing for numbers that are frequently called, those time- wasters can be eliminated.
