●The PBX may restrict you from placing certain types of calls.
●If you use Automatic Route Selection, your telephone system may
automatically insert whatever codes the PBX requires. For exam-
ple, when you dial 9 926 5400 for an outside call, your system may
send 9 9 926 5400 to the PBX.
●You may be able to Transfer to and Conference with other systems
connected to the same PBX.
Ask your Communication's Manager if you are behind a PBX.
You May Have a Private Line
APrivate Line is simply a line on your phone that nobody else in the
system can use. Only you can place and answer calls on your Private
Line. Your Communications Manager can tell you if you have a
Private Line.
If You Hear a Warning Tone
While on an outside call, you may hear occasional beeps through your
speaker or handset. These tones remind you that you have been on the
call a long time.
How Prime Line Works
If you have Prime Line, you can place or answer a call on a specific
line just by lifting the handset. With Outgoing Prime Line Preference,
you get dial tone on your Prime Line when you lift the handset. This
happens even if another call is ringing in. If you usually need to place
calls, Outgoing Prime Line Preference may help you.
With Incoming Prime Line Preference, lifting the handset answers a
ringing call. If you want easy answering of incoming calls, Incoming
Prime Line Preference may be for you.
If Prime Line sounds helpful to you, your Communications Manager
may be able to set it up.
