Attendant Features

Answering Calls

You can receive only one call at a time on your console; calls are held in a queue at the System 25 until you (or the other attendant) can handle them. Your console receives incoming calls only when you have no active calls, and at least one loop is idle.

You answer all incoming calls at one of the LOOP buttons on the upper left of the console. (The system automatically selects LOOP buttons in a rotating sequence for receiving calls.)

When an incoming call rings, the green light next to the appropriate LOOP blinks.
