Description
An extension user can call another extension user.
Conditions
• Extension Number/Name Assignment
Extension numbers ( Extension Number [009]) and names ( Extension Name [604], Extension
Name in Cyrillic [616]) can be assigned to all extensions. During intercom calls, the number and name
of the other extension are shown on the displays of proprietary telephones (PTs).
• DSS Button
It is possible to call another extension simply by pressing the corresponding Direct Station Selection
(DSS) button ( DSS Off-hook Mode [126]). A flexible CO/DSS/MESSAGE button can be customised
as a DSS button.
The DSS buttons on a DSS Console can also be used.
• Alternate Receiving—Ring/Voice
A PT user can select to receive intercom calls by ring tone or by voice, through personal programming
(Alternate Receiving—Ring/Voice). If a user selects voice-calling, the calling party can talk to the user
immediately after hearing a confirmation tone.
• Alternate Calling—Ring/Voice
A caller can change the called party's preset call receiving method (ring tone or voice). By doing so,
ring-calling is switched to voice-calling, or vice versa, at the called party. This setting is active for the
current call only, after which it reverts to the called party's previous setting.
• The extension ring tone pattern for incoming intercom calls can be selected through system
programming ( Extension Ring Tone Pattern [115]). The ringback tone pattern for outgoing intercom
calls and for incoming outside (CO) line calls can also be selected through system programming (
Ringback Tone Pattern [128]).
• Tone after Dialling
After dialling an extension number, a user will hear one of the following:
