Direct station selection
Programming some of the programmable feature keys (see p. C.2) as
station keys
will provide direct access to
those stations as well as providing lamp information as to their status. The station keys’ LEDs indicates the
status of the station assigned to each key:
If a station key’s LED is . . .
The station assigned to that key is . . .
Unlit
Available; currently unused
Red; steadily lit
In use
Red; blinking
Ringing from another call
Green; steadily lit
Connected to you (including via voice mail)
Green; blinking
Ringing from your call
Amber; steadily lit
In DND mode
Note:
Each ESI Cordless Handset has only red LEDs, and only on its four programmable feature keys.
The illumination activity (such as blinking) otherwise is similar to that described above.
To call another station programmed into one of your station keys:
1.
Press an available (unlit) station key.
2.
The called station will sound a short ring followed by a double connect tone.
3.
The phone system will activate the called station’s speakerphone (
or
the station will ring
if
that station’s
user has hands-free answer disabled).
4.
To disconnect when finished, do
one
of the following:
•
Replace the handset.
•
If in hands-free mode,
either
press the station key again
or
press
SPEAKER
.
•
Press
RELEASE
. (With a Cordless Handset, press
TALK
or put the Handset in its charging cradle.)
If you press a key for a station that’s in use (red; steadily lit), you will “camp onto” the station, where its Feature
Phone’s display will tell its user that you’re waiting (see “Call waiting,” page E.11).
If you press a key for a station that’s in DND (amber; steadily lit), you’ll be forwarded directly to the person’s mailbox.
