Toshiba Strata CS Sending a Flash command to Centrex or another PBX, Placing calls with * options

Ending a call without losing calls on hold

You can hang up the phone to end a call without losing your calls on hold.

1.Hang up the phone to end the current call.

2.Pick up the phone.

3.Press Flash 4. You are connected to the call on hold.

You can also end a call by pressing Flash 3 instead of hanging up. You can then connect to a call on hold.

Sending a Flash command to Centrex or another PBX _______

Press Flash 8 when you want to send a Flash command to your Centrex or other PBX system instead of to Strata CS.

Use this command if you are using Strata CS with Centrex phone lines or with a remote PBX. For example, on a Centrex system you must press Flash 8 before you can access Centrex features such as transferring within the Centrex group.

You can also use the Flash 8 command to respond to a call waiting tone from your telephone company. This tone is different than a call waiting tone sent by Strata CS, to which you respond by pressing Flash only.

Placing calls with * options ______________________________

When you press * at a dial tone, the system offers you a menu of quick call commands. See page A-2 for a table that lists all available commands.

Redialing the last call

To redial the last call you placed, press *66.

Returning the last call

To return a call to your last identified caller, press *69. You cannot return unidentified calls.

Disabling call waiting for a call

Disabling call waiting is useful if you are using your extension to send faxes or to connect to the Internet. In both cases, a call waiting tone disrupts the data flow.

To disable call waiting for a call, press *70 and dial the number. You do not hear the call waiting tone during that call. Incoming calls while you are on that call are sent directly to your voice mail. After the call ends, call waiting is enabled again.
