A Quick Look at the Features

Here are brief descriptions of some features, including what each one does and how
you might want to use it. You will have the Conference, Drop, Hold, Message, Select
Button, Select Ring, Self-Test, and Transfer features. In addition, you may have
many of the other features listed here; your System Manager can advise you.

Abbreviated Dialing (AD) Allows you to store selected telephone numbers as three
or fewer digits for quick and easy dialing. Each number can be a complete or partial
telephone number, an extension number, or a trunk or feature code. There are three
possible types of lists — personal, group, and system — and you can have a total of
three lists. Numbers on a personal list are programmable by you; numbers on group
lists are programmable by the controller of the list; system lists are programmable
only by the System Manager. Use this feature as a timesaver for dialing frequently
called, lengthy, or emergency numbers. Note: Check with your System Manager
concerning what types of lists you have and how many of each.

Automatic Callback Sends you a special 3-burst ring tone indicating that a
previously busy extension is now available. Use to avoid constant redialing when you
want to speak to someone who is frequently busy on the telephone. Note: You can
use this feature only for extensions, not outside numbers.

Bridging Permits you to answer or join calls to someone else’s extension by
pressing a bridged appearance button on your voice terminal. This button can be
any call appearance labeled with another user’s primary extension number, as
assigned to you by your System Manager. Use to assist in handling calls for a

b b

designated coworker.
Call Coverage Provides automatic redirection of certain calls to your voice

terminal for answering. (Your System Manager determines which calls will be sent
to you.) Use to answer calls for other extensions for whom you provide coverage.
Call Coverage can also automatically redirect your calls when your voice terminal is
busy, you are out of the office, or you have pressed Send All Calls.

Call Forwarding — Busy/Don´t Answer Temporarily forwards all your calls to
another extension or to the attendant if your voice terminal is busy or you do not
answer your calls within a preset number of rings. Use when you want your calls to
be forwarded to a telephone number of your choice.

Call Forwarding — Follow Me Temporarily forwards all your calls to another
extension or to an outside number, depending on your system. Use when you want
your calls to be automatically forwarded to a telephone number of your choice.

Call Park Puts a call on hold at your voice terminal, for retrieval at any extension.
Use when you need to go elsewhere to get information during a call, or whenever you
want to complete a call from a different location. Also, if the call received is for
someone else, use it to hold the call until the called party can answer from the
nearest available voice terminal.

Call Pickup Lets you answer a call at your voice terminal for another extension in
your pickup group. Use when you want to handle a call for a group member who is
absent or otherwise unable to answer. Note: You can use this feature only if you
and the called party have been assigned to the same pickup group by your System
Manager.

3

Conference Allows you to add another party to a call. Use to set up time-saving
conferences, or to spontaneously include a party important to a conversation.

Drop Disconnects from a call without requiring you to hang up the handset or
press the switchhook. Can also be used with the Conference feature to disconnect
the last party added. Use whenever you want to continue using the handset after
ending a call.

Hold Puts a call on hold until you can return to it. While a call is on hold, you can
place another call, activate another feature, answer a waiting call, or leave your
voice terminal to do another task. Use when you have a call that you do not want to
drop, but have to interrupt briefly to do something else.

Intercom (Automatic/Dial) Gives you quick access to specified voice terminals.
With Automatic Intercom, you can call predetermined persons by pressing a single
feature button. With Dial Intercom, you can call any member of a predetermined
group by pressing a feature button and then dialing the group member’s 2- or
3-digit code.

Last Number Dialed Automatically redials the last number you dialed; an
extension or an outside number. Use to save time in redialing a busy or unanswered
number. Available with DEFINITY Generic 2 and System 85 R2V4 and some R2V3
systems. Check with your System Manager to see if the feature is available in your
system.

Leave Word Calling (LWC) Leaves a message for another extension to call you
back. The called party will be able to dial the message center, AUDIX, or a covering
user to retrieve a short, standard message which gives your name and extension, the
date and time you called, and the number of times you called. Use any time you
want to have someone call you back; it will help cut down on repeated call attempts.

b b

Message Lets you know that a caller has left a message for you when the message
light goes on. You can then follow your System Manager’s local message retrieval
procedures to get your message.

Priority Calling Allows you to call another extension with a distinctive 3-burst ring
to indicate that your call requires immediate attention. Use when you have
important or timely information for someone.

terminal’s lights and ringer. When used with

Ring

you can select your own
personalized ring from among 8 available patterns. Use to distinguish your ring

Self-Test Allows you to test the operation of the lights and ringer of your voice
terminal.

Send All Calls Temporarily sends all your calls to the extension of a person
designated to answer them when you cannot (perhaps a secretary, receptionist, or
AUDIX). Use when you will be away from your desk for awhile or when you do not
want to be interrupted by calls.

Speaker Allows you to place calls or access other voice features without lifting the
handset when speaker is on. However, in order to speak to the other party, you
must lift the handset. Use with features that require listening only, such as on-hook
dialing, monitoring calls on hold, and retrieving messages.

Transfer Transfers a call from your voice terminal to another extension or outside
number. Use when your caller needs to speak further with someone else.
Note: Calls from an outside number to your voice terminal can be transferred only
to an extension, not to another outside number.

How to Use the Features

Many features are available for use with your 7402 Plus voice terminal. Because no
organization can use all of the available features, each organization must choose
those that best suit its needs. After the choices have been made, the person within
your organization who manages your telecommunication system must do any
necessary administration and label the feature buttons on individual voice terminals.
The System Manager can tell you how to use the features that have been
administered for your particular voice terminal. The following procedures give
instructions for using some of the more frequently used features. Features are listed
alphabetically.

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Special Instructions

The first time you use these procedures, you will need to customize them for
yourself. Your System Manager can supply the information required.

d

To the right of each feature name is a box. For each of the features you have,
mark a

cbbbbbc

bbbbb

in the blank box as a reminder. (Conference, Drop, Hold, Message,

Select Button, Select Ring, Self-Test, and Transfer are already marked for you.)

d

To use a voice feature you must have the handset off-hook (that is, you must pick
up the handset or turn on the speaker) unless you are instructed to remain
on-hook in the procedures. You can activate or cancel most of the voice features
by dialing 2- or 3-digit codes (if they are not already assigned to a button). Write
the feature code numbers in the blanks provided within the procedures. These

b b

codes are unique to your system; see your System Manager for the codes or to
obtain more information.

d

System 85 exists in several versions. In some cases, a feature operates
differently with one version than it does with another; where this occurs, the
procedures include a release (R) and version (V) notation. Be sure to follow the
directions corresponding to the release and version you are using. Ask your
System Manager if you do not know the release and version you have.

d

If you receive an intercept tone (high-pitched, alternating high and low tone)
while attempting to use any feature, you have taken too much time to complete a
step, have made a dialing error, or do not have the feature available to you. If
appropriate, hang up or press
