DISA
Dial at auto answer.
The system can be set to answer incoming calls with a voice message, prompting the user to dial a
specific extension, or dial ‘00’ to be diverted to an external number. The external number is shared
with the External call diversion feature, on page 46. Depending on the digits entered, the caller is put
through to the correct extension directly, or to the external number. If no digits are dialled, the call
will revert to a general call. It is possible to program a PIN number with the DISA facility so that the
extensions or external number may only be dialled directly if a PIN is also entered with the DISA
code. Callers into the system will be treated according to the flowchart of Figure 3-5. Note also that
the access code is shared with the incoming call control feature above.
