rarrow.gif CO Line Mode—Day/Night/Lunch [414-416]
In this example:
If an outside (CO) line call is received on outside (CO) line 1:
a) In day mode: Direct In Line (DIL) distribution is assigned. The call is routed to its DIL destination, extension 101.
b) In lunch/night mode: DIL distribution is assigned. The call is routed to its DIL destination, extension 102.

Conditions

To use this feature, "DIL" must be selected as the distribution method for the desired outside (CO) line port. When "Normal" is selected, an incoming outside (CO) line call is received at the extensions assigned in Flexible Ringing—Day/Night/Lunch [408-410].
This outside (CO) line can be used by multiple extension users to make calls, but can only be used by a single extension to receive calls.
If a DIL destination is an extension within an extension group that has enabled the Idle Extension Hunting feature and it is busy, the Idle Extension Hunting feature becomes active (rarrow.gif 1.2.1 Idle Extension Hunting).

1.1.1.2 Intercept Routing

Description

Redirects incoming outside (CO) line calls via the Direct Inward System Access (DISA) or Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) feature to a preprogrammed destination when the original destination does not, or cannot, answer the call. There are 2 types of Intercept Routing, described below.

Type

Description

No Dial 
After hearing a dial tone (short beep) or a DISA outgoing message (OGM), if the caller does not dial anything or enters an unrecognised input, the call is redirected to preprogrammed intercept destinations in the following priority:
DISA IRNA to BV—Day/Night/Lunch [438-440] rarrow.gif Flexible Ringing—Day/Night/Lunch [408-410]
Intercept Routing—No Answer (IRNA)  
If a called party does not answer a call within a preprogrammed time period (rarrow.gif DISA Ring Time before Intercept [508], UCD Ring Time before Intercept [525]), the call is redirected to preprogrammed intercept destinations in the following priority:
DISA IRNA to BV—Day/Night/Lunch [438-440] rarrow.gif Flexible Ringing—Day/Night/Lunch [408-410]

1.1.3.2 Outside (CO) Line Ringing Selection

Description

An extension user can select whether the telephone will ring or not when receiving call(s) from assigned or all outside (CO) lines through personal programming.

Conditions

System programming determines which extension(s) will ring for incoming outside (CO) line calls in each time service mode (rarrow.gif Flexible Ringing—Day/Night/Lunch [408-410]).
If an outside (CO) line call reaches a user's extension, but the extension is set to not ring, the CO button will flash. The outside (CO) line call can be answered by pressing the flashing CO button.

1.1.3.3 Ring Tone Pattern Selection

Description

A different ring tone pattern can be assigned to each incoming call type, such as intercom calls (rarrow.gif Extension Ring Tone Pattern [115]), calls from each doorphone (rarrow.gif Doorphone Ring Tone Pattern [706]), and calls from each outside (CO) line (rarrow.gif CO Line Ring Tone Pattern [423]).
Available ring tone patterns are as follows:

[Ring Tone Patterns]
imf1010a.gif

Conditions

The ring tone pattern for incoming calls (intercom calls and outside (CO) line calls) to a single line telephone (SLT) can be fixed to "Single" or "Double" for each extension through system programming (rarrow.gif SLT Fixed Bell Pattern [629]). The length of the ring tone pattern depends on the preprogrammed length of the bell-on signal (rarrow.gif SLT Ring Bell-on Time [143]), combined with the ratio between the bell signals of the SLT (rarrow.gif SLT Ring/Silence Ratio [142]). Depending on the type of SLT being used, the SLT may not ring properly, if the ring tone pattern of the SLT is set differently from that used by the telephone company.

1.1.3.5 Call Waiting

Description

A busy extension user can be alerted to a new call by Call Waiting. The busy extension user can then answer the second call either by disconnecting the current call or placing it on hold.
If Call Waiting is enabled, a call waiting tone will be sent to the user under the following conditions:
a) When an outside (CO) line call or a doorphone call is received, or
b) When another extension executes the Busy Station Signalling (BSS) feature.
If disabled, a reorder tone will be sent to the extension that executed the BSS feature.

Call Waiting from the Telephone Company
Besides the Call Waiting feature provided by the PBX, you can also subscribe to your telephone company's Call Waiting service and receive call waiting tones through the telephone company's lines. This feature is available when an extension is in a conversation with an outside party, and a call is received from another outside party on the same outside (CO) line. The external call waiting tone will alert an extension user of the incoming outside (CO) line call that is waiting. The user can answer the second call by disconnecting the current call or placing it on hold. If a call waiting tone is heard but the corresponding CO button does not flash, this tone is an external call waiting tone from the telephone company. For details, consult your telephone company.

Conditions

Data Line Security
When an extension user activates Data Line Security, Call Waiting is turned off (rarrow.gif 1.10.5 Data Line Security).
Call Waiting Tone
A proprietary telephone (PT) user can select the preferred call waiting tone through personal programming (Call Waiting Tone Type Selection).
Caller ID Information
When an extension receives a call waiting tone, the caller's information will flash on the display for 5 seconds at 15-second intervals.
