The numeric keypad and the Dial/Transfer button

The numeric keypad within NexDial can be used to enter a phone number, or you can type a number in from the PC keyboard. If you have dial tone, then the button below the Number to Dial box will say Dial, and can be clicked with the left mouse button to dial that number. You can enter extension numbers or 7 or more digit offsite numbers in the Number to Dial box. It is not necessary to enter a 9, but you must enter a 1 if it is required by your telco. You can seize a particular outside line by entering the extension number of the outside line, followed by a comma for a short delay.

If you are on a call, the button below the Number to Dial box will say Transfer, and can be clicked to trans- fer your call to the number entered. This is equivalent to the Direct (Blind) Transfer as described in the chapter Telephone Operations starting on page 44. You can only transfer to three digit extension numbers, such as inside extensions, park orbits, voice mail boxes, automated attendant extensions, and speed dial extensions. To transfer to offsite numbers, you must use either a speed dial extension, or a Setup/Complete transfer as described below.

You can retrieve a call from a Park Orbit by entering the park orbit extension number in the Number to Dial box, and clicking Dial. You must be receiving inside dial tone to retrieve a call from a Park Orbit.
