Attendant Busy Override
(CPC-AII and CPC-B Version 2.0 or higher)
Description
The Attendant Busy Override feature allows the attendant to break in on an
Intercom Call or a CO Call that is already in progress.
Attendant Busy Override can break into any extension, even if the extension
has “Busy Overridden” turned off. (The extension feature “Busy Override”
cannot break into an extension that has “Busy Overridden” turned off.)
System programming determines whether the override is preceded by an alert
tone. By default, Attendant Override does not sound an alert tone.

Using the Attendant Call Park feature, the Attendant may park an outside call
until the called party can be found. The attendant can then use the Paging
feature to inform the called party of the call’s Park Number. The parked call
can then be retrieved from any extension by dialing the Park Number.
The attendant phone is equipped with ten outside line Park Numbers (00-09).
Programming a Call Park key into an FF key on a telephone or a DSS console
makes one-touch Call Park possible.
Operation
