Direct Station Selection Console, DSS (Portrait 824 only)

If you do a lot of call processing (like an operator or dispatcher), you may have a Direct Station Selection (DSS) Console. The DSS Console gives you a Busy Lamp Field (BLF) and one-button access to exten- sions and certain system features. Use the DSS Console to help you:

●Call Extensions and Door Boxes

●Transfer outside calls

●Make Internal or External Pages

Your DSS Console may also have keys stored with Programmable Feature Key operations. This gives your DSS Console many of the features available on One-Touch and function keys. Check with your Communications Manager to see if your console has these functions.

To call an extension from your DSS Console:

1.

2.Press one of the DSS keys.

●If your call voice-announces, you can make it ring by dialing 1. If you don't have Handsfree, you must lift the hand- set to speak.
