Figure 3–10. Direct Station Selector

Ten fixed-feature buttons with green lights are at the bottom of the DSS. The first three (from left to right) on the top row are Page buttons, which you use to select the range of extension numbers represented by the DSS buttons. Each DSS button can represent up to 3 extension numbers, and each set of 50 extension numbers is called a page. The DSS can have up to 3 pages of numbers, for a total of 150 extensions handled by one DSS. If the console has two DSSs, only the Page buttons on the first DSS are used.

Page buttons act like the Shift key on a PC or typewriter. Each of the 3 Page buttons activates a set of 50 numbers. For example, the Page 1 button may access extensions 1 through 50, the Page 2 button may access extensions 51 through 100, and the Page 3 button may access extensions 101 through 150.

If two DSSs are connected together, the total extension capacity of the console increases to 300. Each Page button then handles a range of 100 extensions across both DSSs. If your system has more than 150 extensions and you want access to all system extensions through DSSs, you must have two DSSs.
