Live System Programming
The system can be programmed from any display keyset or PC without interrupting normal
system operation. There are three levels of programming: technician (or system), customer
and station. The technician (system) level has access to all programs and can allow the cus-
tomer access to system programs as needed. Technician and customer access are con-
trolled by different security passcodes. Programming from a PC requires the PCMMC pro-
gram.
Meet Me Page and Answer
After a user makes a Meet Me Page, the user may remain off-hook to allow the paged party
to meet the user for a private conversation.
Memory Protection
In the event that system power is lost, all customer data contained in memory is retained by
the use of a “super capacitor” for approximately 7 days. In addition, the PCMMC program
may be used to produce a backup copy of the customer database.
Message Waiting Indications
When calling a station and receiving a busy signal or no answer, the caller can leave an indi-
cation that a message is waiting. The message key will flash red at the messaged keyset. A
single line telephone will receive a distinctive message waiting dial tone. Five message
waiting indications can be left at a station at any one time.
Microphone On/Off Per Station
The microphone can be disabled at any keyset. When the microphone is disabled, the keyset
cannot use the speakerphone, although on-hook dialling and group listening are still possible.
Music-On-Hold (MOH)—Flexible
The iDCS100 allows its music sources to be used in a very flexible manner.
Each keyset can have a designated music source for playing as Background Music (BGM)
through the keyset speaker.
