transfer a call, establish a conference call, answer a call-waiting call, or
pick up parked calls. You can program this button for either voice or ring
operation.
You can assign any combination of up to 10 ICOM Voice, ICOM Ring, and ICOM
Originate Only buttons to each telephone on line buttons 1 through 10. The
number of line buttons that you can assign to a telephone is limited only by the
number of lines/trunks in the system and the number of buttons available on the
telephone.
Line Buttons in Hybrid/PBX Mode 3
Because outside trunks are pooled in Hybrid/PBX mode, outside numbers are not
associated with individual telephones. SA buttons on multiline telephones allow
you to access a pool of lines and make different kinds of calls from the same
button. Other types of buttons may connect the user to pools of special-purpose
lines or to personal lines that are not pooled.
You can assign the following types of buttons to multiline telephones:
■ SA Ring. Use this button to make and receive inside and outside calls.
When you use an SA Ring button to make an inside call, the telephone at
the destination extension rings once per cycle to indicate an inside call.
■ SA Voice. Use this button to make and receive inside and outside calls.
When you use an SA Voice button to make an inside call, the user at the
destination extension hears your voice on the speakerphone after a single
beep, rather than ringing. (If you are using an SA Voice button to make a
voice-announced call and the user at the destination extension has a
telephone that does not have a speakerphone or has disabled voice
announcements, the telephone rings just as if the call was made on an SA
Ring button.)
■ SA Originate Only. Use this button to make inside and outside calls. You
cannot receive calls on SA Originate Only buttons. The purpose of this
type of button is to ensure that you always have a button available to make
or transfer a call, establish a conference call, answer a call-waiting call, or
pick up parked calls. For inside calls, you can program the button for either
voice or ring operation.
■ Shared SA (SSA). Use this button to allow two or more users to answer
each other’s calls, join conversations, or make or receive inside or outside
calls on each other’s SA Ring or SA Voice buttons. In a Shared System
Access arrangement, one extension is the
principal
(
or primary
) extension.
This extension is the telephone from which SA Ring, SA Voice, and/or SA
Originate Only buttons are assigned as Shared SA buttons.
