Answering calls during a PC or power failure

If the PC power fails, switch the PFT switch at the back of the PCCIU from 1 (On) to 0 (Off). This places the PCCIU in Position Busy status.

Note 1: Once the PCCIU is in Position Busy status, incoming calls are directed to other consoles in the customer group or to alternate answering positions, if configured.

When the PC regains power, switch the PFT to 1 (On) and exit the Night/Busy position through the PC-based Console software application.

Alternately, you can remove the console from service by unplugging the headset or handset

from the PCCIU. See “Night/Busy” on page 3.

If you experience other problems, contact your system administrator.
