Link

Generate a Link signal to access a PBX or other host exchange.

FEATURE 71

If you connect the system to a private branch exchange (PBX), you can use a Link

LN

signal to access special features. On some telephones, Link is called FLASH. You

can include the Link signal as part of a longer stored sequence on an external

 

 

autodial button, or in a speed dial code. The Link symbol uses two of the 24 spaces

 

in a dialing sequence. (FEATURE 71)

 

Note: This feature must be enabled under the restrictions for the telephone.

 

 

Pause

Program within an external auto-dial sequence to insert a 1.5-second delay.

FEATURE 78

This feature enters a 1.5-second delay in a dialing sequence on an external line. The

P

use of this feature is required often for signaling remote devices, such as answering

machines, or when accessing PBX features or host systems. You can program more

 

 

than one pause in an external auto dial or speed dial sequence. (FEATURE 78)

 

Note: This feature is not supported on ISDN trunks.

 

 

Run/Stop

Insert a break point into a sequence of dialed numbers or characters used for

FEATURE *9

automatic dialing. This is necessary when you are connecting to a PBX or similar

host system. For example, if a company has an automated attendant that instructs

B

you to dial an internal number you need, you can program the company number, a

 

 

Run/Stop, then the internal number on one external autodial button.

 

The Run/Stop symbol uses one of the 24 spaces in an autodial or speed dial

 

sequence.

 

You can include up to three Run/Stop commands in a dialing string. The system

 

ignores a fourth Run/Stop, and any digits or commands that follow three Run/Stop

 

commands in a programmed dialing sequence.

 

Programming: There is no system programming for this feature.

 

 

Wait for dial tone

Program with an external auto-dial number to cause the system to wait to receive a

FEATURE 804

dial tone from another system before proceeding with the dialing sequence.

This feature (FEATURE 804) causes a sequence of numbers to pause until dial tone

DT

is present on the line before continuing to dial. You can use this feature if you must

 

 

dial a remote system, and then wait for dial tone from that system before dialing the

 

remainder of your number. The Wait for Dial Tone symbol uses two of the 24 spaces

 

in an autodial or speed dial sequence.

 

Programming: There is no system programming for this feature.
