Serial Call Button
When a caller wishes to speak to more than one person or department, the attendant uses this button
to place the caller in a serial mode of multiple transfers to every desired party. In the serial mode, the
system automatically transfers the caller to another party as soon as a present party hangs up (up to
three stations can be part of a serial transfer). The system places the caller in the serial mode as soon
as the attendant hangs up.
Test/Busy Button
This button provides the attendant a means to test the status of specific lines. Attendants can use this
button to determine whether individual lines are idle, busy, on hold, or out of service.
Also refer to the discussions titled Answer Button, Lock Button, Release Button, Split Button, and
Silent Mode Button and to the discussion titled Programmable Button Flexibility.
Attendant Position, PC
The Total Control PC attendant position is a computerized attendant operating station that consists of
an IBM-compatible personal computer, a proprietary interface circuit board (factory-installed in one
of the computer’s expansion slots), a customized keyboard that includes a handset cradle, a
telephone handset, a program diskette, and all necessary cables for connecting the equipment to the
FX II. The FX II can handle a maximum of four PC Attendants.
Among the many features that are available to the PC attendant is a feature that allows him or her to
change the class of service of an individual station. This feature allows an attendant to control the
calling parameters of a station (such as how much or little toll restriction to allow) at any time.
The installer can program function keys F1–F12 on the PC attendant keyboard with features that are
in addition to the fixed features that these keys provide. To access the additional features, the
attendant must press and hold the Control key while pressing the desired function key on the
keyboard.
Authorization Code
Authorization codes have a “walking class of service” option. Walking class of service provides
system users the mobility to use their class of service (COS) features, prime line assignments, and
exception numbers on any telephone in the system instead of being limited by what is available to
the particular telephone they happen to be using. Authorization codes are associated with personal
intercom numbers as is COS, prime markings, and exception numbers. Therefore, when a user enters
his or her authorization code at any system telephone, the code alerts the system as to what features
to make available to the user. The user can use the telephone for anything allowed by his or her
personal intercom number; however, a user cannot disturb the last number redial stored there by the
normal user. Once a user accesses his or her telephone features, those features remain in effect until
any idle time exceeds the authorization code time-out period. A telephone user activates walking
class of service by pressing Itcm and then dialing #08 followed by an authorization code. Also refer
to the discussion titled Lock Button.
