Call Override--With Call Override “on”-when The Stick “answers” a call and you pick up an extension more than one second later, The Stick will recognize the lifting of the handset and stop transmitting ringback tone to the caller. You can immediately begin to talk or (within 15 seconds) transfer the call to another device. In some areas of the country, your local telephone company’s lines and switching equipment may cause this feature to not function properly. Just deactivate the feature. (See the “Call Grab” feature explanation in the Standard Features section for another option to Call Override.) Factory preset is “off.”
Maximum Rings--This feature allows you to program the number of rings transmitted to your phones/answering machine, fax and modem by The Stick. Maximum Rings can be programmed anywhere from 4 rings (minimum) to up to 30 rings. Factory preset is 8 rings to all equipment.
Unrestricted Manual Transfer--With the UMT feature “off,” The Stick will only allow a manual transfer to be done during the first 1 5 seconds of an inbound call when answered from an extension. The UMT feature, when activated, enables a transfer to be executed from an
extension phone and by either party at any time duri ng the call, no matter if the call is inbound or outbound. Of course, inbound calls answered by equipment through the VOICE 1 or 2 ports may be
transferred at any time using the appropriate SAC, reaardlessg of the setting for this feature. Factory preset is “on.”
1.2 STANDARD FEATURES - No Programming Needed!
Barge-InProtection-When installed on an incoming telephone line before ALL telephone equipment (extension wall jacks or multi-line phone systems), The Stick will protect any voice or data call from being accessed by other telephone equipment on the same line. Any phone device that goes “off-hook” during a conversation or data transmission will receive a silent line.
Note: The Barge-In Protection feature will control only those phone/data devices connected directly to The Stick. For optimum peformance and protection, it is recommended that all premise extension phones be wired into The Stick at either the Voice 1 or Voice 2 ports. Relax! This is not a difficult operation to perform. See the section titled "Installation Procedures” for the easiest way to get the job done.
