3.7.3Direct Station Select (DSS)

>This feature is available only on OpenStage 40/60/80, and requires HiPath V 3.0.

A DSS key is a special variant of a line key. It enables a direct connection to a target phone, allowing the user to pick up or forward a call alerting the DSS target and make/complete a call to the DSS target.

3.7.3.1General DSS Settings

These parameters define the behaviour of all DSS keys.

>Generally, it is advisable to restrict the user’s possibilities to modify line keys, includ- ing DSS keys. This can be achieved solely by the DLS. For further instructions, see the DLS Administration Guide.

If the user picks up an incoming call for the DSS target by pressing the associated DSS key, the call is forwarded to the user’s primary line. Thereafter, the user’s phone rings, and the user can accept the call.

>To enable the immediate answering of a call via the DSS key, Allow auto-answerin the user menu must be activated. The complete path on the WBM is:

User Pages > Configuration > Incoming calls > CTI calls > Allow auto-answer.

The value of Call pickup detect timer (seconds) determines the time interval, within which the call must be present at the primary line. If the interval is exceeded, forwarding will not be tried any longer. The default is 3.

If Deflecting call enabled is checked, the user can forward an alerting call to the DSS target by pressing the DSS key. The default is "No".

If Allow pickup to be refused is checked, the user is enabled to reject a call alerting on the line associated with the DSS key. The default is "No".
