Call Park Orbits
The Call Park feature enables you to hold a call temporarily in a location other than
your telephone. These areas are called orbits. You or another telephone user can
retrieve a parked call from its orbit by specifying the orbit number. You can specify
one of 20 General Park Orbits (7000~7019) or a valid extension number within the
system.
Once you have parked a call in an orbit, you can:
• Hang up and retrieve the parked call at a later time
• Originate another call
• Access a voice paging device to announce the parked call for pickup from another
station
If you park a call and it is not retrieved, it will recall to the parking station and one of
the following occurs:
• If your station is idle when the system Call Park recall timer expires, the parked
call automatically recalls to your station.
• If your station is busy, the parked call camps on.
If you have an LCD telephone, you can let the system automatically select an
available orbit number which displays on your LCD.
³To park a call
1. While on a call, press Park in Orbit or press Cnf/Trn + #33. The LED flashes
green (consultation-hold). If you were on an extension during the call, and you
have line button on your telephone, the line LED will flash until the call is picked
up (depending on programming).
2. Specify the Park Orbit using one of the following:
• Press * and the system automatically selects a General Park Orbit between
7000~7019. The chosen orbit appears on the LCD.
• Enter a valid extension.
• Press # and the system automatically selects your extension as the orbit.
3. Hang up. The caller’s extension or line number and the orbit number are shown. If
the parked call is not retrieved within a specified time, the call rings back to your
telephone. When a parked call recalls your telephone, the LCD shows the line or
extension that is recalling and the orbit number.
