Basic Features

PC/PBX Connection

PC/PBX Connection provides an integrated-voice and data-workstation interface from DEFINITY ECS to a 6300 or other compatible personal computer. The con- nection provides access to a variety of host computers, allowing the personal computer to act as a terminal for the host.

Personal Station Access

Allows you to transfer your telephone station preferences and permissions to any other compatible telephone. This includes the definition of terminal buttons, abbreviated dial lists, and Class of Service and Class of Restrictions permis- sions. It can be used on-site or off-site (with DEFINITY Extender). This has sev- eral telecommuting applications. For example, several telecommuting employees can share the same office on different days of the week. The employ- ees can easily and remotely make the shared telephone “theirs” for the day. Remote use requires DEFINITY Extender.

Personalized Ringing

Allows users of certain telephones to uniquely identify their own calls. Each user can choose one of a number of possible ringing patterns. The eight ringing pat- terns are tone sequences consisting of different combinations of three tones.

With this feature, users working closely in the same area can each specify a dif- ferent ringing pattern in order to better identify their own calls.

Power Failure Transfer

Provides service to and from the local telephone company central office, includ- ing Wide Area Telecommunications System, during a power failure. This allows you to make or answer important or emergency calls during a power failure. This feature is also called Emergency Transfer.

Priority Calling

Allows you to ring another telephone with a distinctive signal that tells the called party the incoming call requires immediate attention. The called party can then handle the call accordingly. You activate priority calling by Dialing a Priority Call- ing access code or pressing a feature button, followed by the extension number. You can use Priority Calling only if your telephone has been administered with the required class of service.

Privacy — Attendant Lockout

Prevents an attendant from reentering a multiple-party connection held on the console unless recalled by a telephone user. This feature is administered on a system-wide basis. It is either activated or not activated.
