Siemens NI-1200 specifications ConferencelTransfer Call Appearance, Hold, Intercom

Issue 5, June 1999

If the Automatic Privacy on Retrieve from Hold feature is enabled on your Optiset terminal, the Privacy feature is invoked automatically when you retrieve a held EKTS call. Because Privacy is a switch-based rather than terminal-based feature, the interval between retrieval of the call and invoking of the Privacy feature could allow another user to bridge into your call. If that occurs, a Bridged-User Attention Tone (three short beeps) is sounded by your Optiset terminal when the retrieved call appearance becomes active.

ConferencelTransfer Call Appearance

The Conferencerrransfer Call Appearance (Confrrransfer CA) is programmed as a fixed CA to be used as the consultation call of a Conference or Transfer. This CA should be assigned only in a CACH EKTS phone.

When you initiate a Transfer or a Conference call, Ihe Opliset terminal puts the active call on hold and checks for a Confffransfer CA. If one is defined, the terminal will use it to initiate the consultation call. If the Confffransfer CA does not appear on a line key and is bUsy (used by another consultation call), the terminal will beep and prompt you to select a line. If the Confffransfer CA appears on a line key and is busy, the terminal will search for another idle appearance of that line ON. If none is found, the terminal will beep and promt you to select a line. In either case, if you are prompted to select a line, you may select any idle line for the consultation cal/.

While setting up the conference or transfer call, you can toggle between the two calls. If the Confffransfer CA is defined on a feature/line key, you can toggle between the two parties by pressing the appropriate line keys or by using the "Retrieve line x?" menu option. If the ConffTransfer CA is not defined on a key, you can toggle only to the consultation call using the "Retrieve conf CA?" or "Retrieve transfer CA?" menu option. If the call on the Confffransfer CA is not part of a conference or transfer and is on hold, the "Retrieve conf/xfer CAT' menu option is displayed. This can happen when the first party in the conference or Iransfer hangs up or an incoming call is answered on the ConffTransfer CA.

Note: The Confffransfer CA is cleared when a download from the switching system is performed.

Hold

For EKTS calls, the line Status indicator will indicate the hold state against the EKTS group of the selected call. Hold against the EKTS group means that all EKTS group members have put their call legs on hold and nobody from the EKTS group is connected to the outside call at this time. The hold state against the EKTS group is recognized by the switch and indicated to the Optiset by the NI value "call on hold" or "call retrieved from hold." The Optiset terminal will change the line status to "pending". The Hold feature will not retrieve an associated CACH EKTS call unless this call is currently being previewed (by pressing the associated line in Preview mode).

Intercom

The Intercom feature, only supported on CACH lines, is used to generate and receive intercom calls. The intercom Status light indicates incoming intercom calls and the status of the intercom call. Intercom keys are not associated with any DNs.

If the Intercom key contains a destination number, pressing this key will autodial the intercom destination. If no destination number is programmed, pressing the Intercom key will return dial tone, and you can dial the number manually.
