Analog Link

Two-step Transfer can also be done if the link between terminals B and C is analog (Group 3 on the PSTN).

The operator at terminal A makes a transfer request. However, it must dial using a group stored in terminal B, using the shorthand notation described for Transfer Request on page 88. For example, if the required group in terminal B is group 1, terminal A must dial # ∗∗01.

Note that the following programming must be done if Two-step Transfer is to work using an analog link.

The ID codes of terminals A, B, and C must be the same.

Terminals D, E, and F must be programmed in a group at terminal B (for example, Group 1). Terminal C must be programmed as the Group Transfer Station for that group (see page 41).

Caution

If terminal C is not programmed in terminal B as the transfer station for the group, the message will be sent out to D, E, and F using terminal B as the broadcaster. If the link between B and C is long-distance, this would not be much help in reducing your communication costs, as you can see from the diagram.
