Account codes may be from three to 16 digits in length as set by class of service programming. The
system will verify all digits. Also refer to the discussion titled Account Codes With Positive
Verification—Forced.
Account Codes with Positive Verification—Forced
Station users can assign account codes to specific calls. The system uses the account codes to
identify calls by category, or special grouping, for call accounting purposes. If the installer programs
the system to have forced account codes, the user must enter the account code before the call can be
placed. If the system does not find a match between a user entered account code and one that the
installer has set in the system, the call will not be allowed. Remember, verification alone does not
deny users’ calls, only forced verification denies. The installer can arrange for the system to verify
that the user entered an account code and to sound an error tone if an invalid account code is entered.
If the installer arranges it, attendants can use account codes as a basis for SMDA print-outs. He or
she may program the system to prompt station users to enter account codes for incoming calls and/or
out-going calls if desired. You can program the system to recognize emergency numbers that do not
require account codes.
Account Code Display and Display Time
For LCD speakerphone users, a message appears in the telephone’s display prompting the user to
enter an account code for incoming or outgoing calls. If the user does not require this prompt, the
installer should turn off the prompting message display.
Adjunct Feature Module Support
When the installer includes a 16-button adjunct feature module with certain model Comdial
proprietary telephones, that module extends the programmable buttons of the telephone by 16
buttons and status lights. The users can program these buttons for speed dialing and direct station
selection (DSS) with busy lamp field (BLF) status lights.
All-Call Paging
Refer to the discussion titled Zone Paging.
Allow Ringer Off (Ringer Volume Off)
On some proprietary telephones, the user selects the ringer volume level by pressing a rocker-type
volume control repeatedly to select one of four different volume levels. The lowest volume setting is
essentially an off condition as the telephone sounds only one low-volume ring burst when a call
rings the station. Sometimes users would rather not receive even one ring burst. For these cases,
installers can program the system so that it completely silences the ringer at a telephone when its
user selects the lowest volume setting.
Alpha-Numeric Calling Party and Line Display
An LCD speakerphone, when receiving an inside call, displays the caller’s name (up to seven
characters). For example, “John L”. The system uses the remaining nine characters on the display for
status messages (for example, “Fwd from”). The system also displays the logical line number of the
current line. Also see the discussion titled Liquid Crystal Display Support.
