Directory Number [DN] Buttons

The [DN] buttons consist of: [PDNs], [SDNs], and [PhDNs]. They are used to initiate or answer a call and are known as your extension or intercom number(s). You can have multiple [DN] buttons on your telephone (see Figure 2), including [DNs] belonging to another telephone, [SDNs].

Incoming calls ring your telephone’s [PDNs] from the top down. For example, incoming calls to Station 210’s [PDNs] first ring the “210-1” button, then “210-2,” and finally “210-3.” Your [PDN] is considered busy only when all of the [PDNs] are being used by your telephone or other telephones, and/or when your telephone is on any type of Exchange Line or [DN] call.

If you have an LCD telephone, you can find out the actual Directory Number

of a [DN] button by pressing the [DN] you want to display and dialling #407. The number (210) displays.
