Any Directory Number assigned
to one phone can also appear on
another phone, which can then
share the use of that line.
Figure 1-4 shows an SRS-1050
whose primary Directory Number
is 747-3456, with two additional
Call Appearance buttons
assigned that same number. The
telephone's secondary line is 747-
7890, which has two appearances.
In the illustration, this set also
has a button assigned to the
number 747-3482. This could, for
example, be a shared line using
someone else's primary Directory
Number.

Call Handling Example with
Multifunction Buttons
Suppose your Directory Number
is 747-3456, and the first three
multifunction buttons on your
SRS-1050 have been assigned
that number.
What does it mean to have three
Call Appearance buttons
assigned to one directory
number? It means you can have
up to three calls at the same time
using that single Directory
Number, though you can talk on
only one at a time.
For example, if you have no calls
in progress and someone dials
747-3456, your telephone rings
and the LED for the first Call
Appearance button associated
with 747-3456 flashes green. You
can answer the call by pressing
that Call Appearance button and
picking up the handset. (The LED
turns steady red.)
After answering the call, you can
press the second 747-3456 Call
Appearance button to originate
another call. The first call is
automatically put on hold. If
another call comes in, you can
press the third Call Appearance
button representing 474-3456 to
answer the third call. The second
call is also placed on hold.
You would then have three calls
on your 747-3456 Directory
Number. Only then is your 3456
number "busy", that is, when all
three assigned Call Appearance
buttons are in use.
