Basic Features
The following features come standard with DEFINITY ECS.

Abbreviated Dialing

Provides lists of stored numbers you can use to:
■Place local, long-distance, and international calls
■Activate features
■Access remote computer equipment
You simply dial the list number and the one-, two-, or three-digit number ass oci-
ated with the phone number you want. The number is then auto matically dialed
by the system. A frequently called number can be stored on an abbreviated dial-
ing button that you need only press once to make the call .

Administered Connections

Automatically establishes an end-to-end connection between two access or data
endpoints based on administered attributes. This feature provides capabilities
such as alarm notification, including an administrabl e alarm type and threshold;
automatic restoration of connections established ove r a Software-Defined Data
Network; ISDN-PRI trunk group [service may be referred to as ISDN-PRI (AC/AE)
Service]; scheduled as well as continuous connections; and administr able-retry
interval for failed connection attempts.

Administrable Language Displays

Allows the messages that appear on telephone display unit s to be shown in the
language spoken by the user. These messages are availabl e in English (the
default), French, Italian, Spanish, or one other user-defined language. T he lan-
guage for display messages is selected by each user. Th e feature requires
40-character display telephones.

Administration Without Hardware

Allows you to administer telephones that are not yet ph ysically present on the
system. This feature works the same as administration with hardware: when sta-
tions are moved, user-activated features such as call fo rwarding and send all
calls are preserved and functional. This greatly facilitates th e speed of setting up
and making changes to the telephones on the system.

Alphanumeric Dialing

Allows you to place data calls by entering an alphanumeric name rather than a
long string of numbers.
