Feature description
Permanent Hold holds an active call on a 2500 telephone without attendant
assistance. Calls cannot be originated or received while in the Permanent
Hold mode. Incoming calls receive a busy signal if Hunting is not defined for
the called telephone.
If the telephone user goes on-hook after activating Permanent Hold, the
telephone periodically receives a one-second ring burst as a reminder that
the call is on hold. This interval is defined at the customer level.
Operating parameters
Permanent Hold is allowed only when a call is active, and if the Class
of Service allows transfer.
If Busy Verify is attempted on a telephone with a call on Permanent Hold,
busy tone is received.
Override cannot be used on a telephone with a call on Permanent Hold.
Permanent Hold cannot be activated during a Conference call.
