AEC Disconnect

Description

This feature allows the System to send a disconnect signal of 1 second to an analog device indicating that the calling party has hung up (terminated the call). This feature is useful with a Third-party Voice Mail or an Answering Machine. By default this feature is disabled.

Considerations

The 1 second time duration of the disconnect signal is fixed. (It cannot be changed.)

Attendant Groups

CPC-96, CPC-288, and CPC-576 Version 1.0

Description

An attendant phone is often used as a central answering point for other extensions. In addition, attendant phones frequently have special capabilities for monitoring and programming extensions.

You can reach the assigned attendant group by dialing the feature access code for Attendant Calls (usually 0). If an attendant phone is available but does not answer within a set time, the call will move to the next available attendant phone. If all members of the attendant group are busy for a specified time, the call can be forwarded to other extensions or another hunt group. The system allows up to 20 extensions to be included in an attendant group.

FF2: Ring Type

Considerations

The System allows one attendant group for each system mode (Day 1, Day 2, and Night).

An attendant group can contain both real extensions and virtual extensions. If virtual, several phones can be made to ring at the same time.

Attendant groups can use only Pilot Terminal Hunt Group or Pilot Distributed Hunt Group. For more information, see “Hunting Groups” on page 46.
