Analog Telephones on the NBXâ System
Quick Reference Guide
NOTES: For additional NBX telephony features, see the
NBX Telephone Guide. However, the Feature Codes described
throughout that guide, including in Appendix A, are available
only from NBX telephones, not from an analog telephone.
Access the Automated Attendant
From any telephone on the system, dial 500.
Transfer a Call
1. Place or receive a call.
2. While on the call, press and release the switch hook
to put the call on hold.
3. Listen for the dial tone. Dial the number to which
you want to transfer the call.
4. As soon as you hear ringing, hang up the telephone
to complete a blind (unannounced) transfer, or wait
until the recipient answers, announce the call, and then
hang up. The call is transferred when you hang up.
Participate in a Conference Call
Although you cannot initiate a conference call from your
analog telephone, someone else can include you on a
conference call initiated on an NBX telephone.
Forward Incoming Calls to Voice Mail
If you do not answer your analog telephone, the system
transfers incoming calls to your voice mailbox or wherever
you have specified for your calls to go when you do not
answer (called the call coverage point).
See the NetSet™ User Help for how to set your coverage
point.
Call Park — Retrieve a Parked Call
Although you cannot park a call from your analog telephone,
you can retrieve a parked call. From your telephone or from
any telephone on the system, dial the Call Park extension to
which the call was parked.
Hunt Groups — Log In and Log Out
Analog telephones on an NBX system can be configured
to be members of hunt groups, but you cannot directly log
into or out of a hunt group from your analog telephone.
To log in or out of a hunt group, connect to the NetSet utility
from your computer. See the NBX Telephone Guide.
