Storing a Pause

In some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (9, for example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. You can store the access code with the phone number. However, you should also store a pause after the access code to allow the outside line time to connect.

To add one or more 2-second pauses to a phone number you are storing in memory, press REDIAL at each point where a pause is needed.

When calling special services, dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEM and the number for the memory location where the additional information is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire depart- ment, ambulance) and you want to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Al- so, remain on the line to explain the rea- son for your call.

Note: Each pause entry counts as one digit in memory.

Dialing a Stored Number

To dial a stored number, when you hear the dial tone, press MEM then the de- sired memory location number (0120).

Chain Dialing Service Numbers

You can make a call using more than one of the ET-928’s memory locations. This is called chain dialing. Chain dialing is useful for dialing special services such as alternate long distance or bank-by- phone.

USING THE INTERCOM

You can use the ET-928 as a two-way pager and intercom between the base and the handset. This is useful if the handset is away from the base and you want to locate it, or if you want to have a conversation between someone with the handset and someone at the base.

Notes:

If the handset is in use when it receives a page, the handset beeps twice every 4 seconds.

If a call comes in during an intercom conversation, either of the intercom parties can answer the call, but the intercom call is disconnected.
