ÊCallback & Line RequestÊ

Your system has two features that you can use when an outside line or extension is busy. These features give you access to the line or extension when it becomes available.

On phones with SA buttons, use Callback to reach:

•Busy outside lines on Pool or SA buttons, when you dial the dial-out code and hear the fast busy signal.

•Busy extensions, when you dial and hear the busy signal.

On phones with ICOM buttons, use:

•Line Request to reach a busy outside line when you lift the handset or press the Speaker button and do not hear the dial tone.

•Callback for busy extensions.

1.Press the button you have programmed,

OR

3.After you hear 5 short beeps, hang up. When the line or extension is free, you hear a long ring and 3 short rings.

4.Lift the handset or press the Speaker button. You hear dial tone, and the system dials the call.

To cancel a Callback request:
