Description

An extension user can call another extension user.

Conditions

•Extension Number/Name Assignment

Extension numbers ( Extension Number [009]) and names ( Extension Name [604], Extension Name in Cyrillic [616]) can be assigned to all extensions. During intercom calls, the number and name of the other extension are shown on the displays of proprietary telephones (PTs).

•DSS Button

It is possible to call another extension simply by pressing the corresponding Direct Station Selection (DSS) button ( DSS Off-hook Mode [126]). A flexible CO/DSS/MESSAGE button can be customised as a DSS button.

The DSS buttons on a DSS Console can also be used.

•Alternate Receiving—Ring/Voice

A PT user can select to receive intercom calls by ring tone or by voice, through personal programming (Alternate Receiving—Ring/Voice). If a user selects voice-calling, the calling party can talk to the user immediately after hearing a confirmation tone.

•Alternate Calling—Ring/Voice

A caller can change the called party's preset call receiving method (ring tone or voice). By doing so, ring-calling is switched to voice-calling, or vice versa, at the called party. This setting is active for the current call only, after which it reverts to the called party's previous setting.

•The extension ring tone pattern for incoming intercom calls can be selected through system programming ( Extension Ring Tone Pattern [115]). The ringback tone pattern for outgoing intercom calls and for incoming outside (CO) line calls can also be selected through system programming ( Ringback Tone Pattern [128]).

•Tone after Dialling

After dialling an extension number, a user will hear one of the following:

Type	Description
Ringback Tone	Indicates the call is being received at the called party's extension.
Confirmation Tone	Indicates the called party has set voice-calling.
Busy Tone	Indicates the called party's extension is busy.
DND Tone	Indicates the called party has set Do Not Disturb (DND).
