Headset Cord Disconnect
•
Headset Cord Disconnect enables activating a selected preprogrammed key by disconnecting the
handset/headset cord. The feature enables you to automatically invoke a keyset function such as Do Not Disturb,
Login/Logout, Attended/Unattended, Call Forward, or any other preprogrammed key function, upon
disconnection of the headset cord.
•
One of the Headset Cord Disconnect purposes is to block a telephone from accepting calls when the headset
cord is disconnected. Any call forwarding to the keyset will be automatically cancelled when the feature is
activated.
•
This feature is generally combined with the Headset Only feature to allow calls to be conducted via the
headset/handset even if the cradle switch is on-hook.
NOTE:
The Headset Cord Disconnect feature does not work with all headset equipment. The feature is
operable only with headsets that do not use auxiliary equipment, such as splitters, volume amplifiers,
external headset/handset switches.
•
See your system administrator for the programmable button assigned for this feature.
•
The corresponding button should be programmed to perform the required function.
Operation
•
If a key is preprogrammed with a feature having ON/OFF states (e.g. Do Not Disturb), the system will toggle
the feature Off when the Cord is connected, and On when the Cord is disconnected. The Login/Logout function
is excluded from this rule, as it operates in the reverse mode.
•
If the key is programmed with a feature without ON/OFF states, the system will operate the same key contents
when connecting/disconnecting the cord (e.g. dialing an external number).
•
When enabled by disconnected the cord, the feature can be disabled also by pressing the button.
•
The feature activated by pressing a button when the cord is plugged in, will remain active when the cord is
disconnected.
•
Connecting the cord will cancel the feature that has been activated by pressing a programmable key or dialing a
feature code when the cord was disconnected.
