●Call Coverage

Third-Party Call Setup calls to the source terminal will not be directed to a coverage station. If the source terminal is not answered before coverage is invoked, the call is dropped and the NO ANSWER/DISCONNECTED messages are displayed at the third-partydata terminal.

●Call Following

If calls to a source terminal have been forwarded to another terminal (via Call Following), Third-Party Call Setup calls will be forwarded. Note, however, that the maximum of three ringing cycles (combined cycles at the home and away terminals) still applies before the system drops the call and displays the NO

ANSWER\DISCONNECTED messages at the third-partydata terminal.

● Expert Mode

Refer to the Expert Mode feature description for additional methods in dialing when using the Third-Party Call Setup feature.

●Station Message Detailed Recording (SMDR)

SMDR records will be generated for Third-Party Call Setup calls just as if they were placed by the source terminal.

Administration Requirements

●Data Port

The user’s data terminal may be administered to have a particular source terminal associated with it. This allows the abbreviated form of dialing when activating the Third-Party Call Setup feature.

A source terminal may be associated via administration with several third-partydata terminals. A third-partydata terminal, however, may be associated with only one source terminal (voice or data).

In addition, the third-partydata terminal can be administered so that calls may be established for:

—Any voice or data source terminal

—One associated source terminal only

—No source terminals (feature disabled; default).

●AT&T STARLAN NETWORK Access

Ports administered on the STARLAN INTERFACE circuit pack may not have a particular source terminal associated with them. Depending on the administration parameters enabled, third-partydata terminals on the STARLAN INTERFACE circuit pack may establish calls for:
