Calling a Station
To call a station’s extension from either a DSS console or a DADM, press the DSS associated
with the station.
A station call with a DSS button can be made on-hook or off-hook, and with Voice First or Tone
signalling. After pressing the button, treat the call like any other station call made from a digital
telephone.
DSS LEDs indicate whether the associated station is idle or busy. The LED is steady red if the station
is busy or ringing, and is not lit if idle. If all the station’s PDN buttons are being used by other
stations, the DSS LED of the station is lit steady red, but the station may be idle. If the station is in the
Do Not Disturb mode, its DSS LED lights blinking red.
Transferring to an Idle Station
You can transfer internal or outside calls to an idle station from either a DSS console or a DADM.
To transfer a call to an idle station
1. Press the DSS button corresponding to the station to be called.
The call is placed automatically on hold. The Line or extension LED flashes green at double the on-
hold rate, and the DSS LED flashes green. You hear a single ring tone. (If using the Tone signalling
mode, you hear successive ring tones.)
2. Announce the call.
With Tone signalling, you would have to wait for the called station to answer before announcing the
call.
3. Hang up.
The call rings the called station when you hang up. While the called station is ringing, the DSS LED
is steady red, and the Line LED flashes green at the on-hold rate or if on a extension button, it goes
idle.
When the called station answers the call, the DSS LED stays steady red, and the Line LED becomes
steady red.
4. If the station does not answer before a period set in system programming, the call recalls your station.
