10 - Call Delivery - Outside calls designated to ring at a QCC are sent to a single common QCC queue, where they wait to be sent to the first available QCC operator. When a QCC operator is available to receive a call, the system removes a call from the queue and sends it to an idle Call button.
11 - Conference - Use this feature to connect yourself, up to two other inside extensions, and up to two outside participants. All calls are joined on a single Call button. You can only drop yourself or the most recently added participant from the conference call.
12 - Returning Calls - Some of the calls you receive are returning calls. These are calls you or another operator directed to co-workers. If the co-worker you directed the call to is unavailable (away from the telephone or on another call, for example), the call may return to you for further handling, depending on how your system is set up.
13 Messaging Your phone system has the following features that allow you to leave messages for others in your office. • Leave Message. If you cannot reach a co-worker, you can use the Leave Message feature to let a co-worker with a display telephone know that you called, along with the date and time of your call.
14 Messaging - Send / Remove Message - Press the Send/Remove Message button on your console to turn the Message light on or off for any telephone in your system.
15 - Receiving Messages - When your Message light is on, you have a message from a co-worker. Messages are identified by the name or extension of the caller, along with the time and date the person called. Depending on how your system is set up, you may also have a voice mail message or a fax.
16 Messaging - Leaving Messages - If you cannot reach a co-worker, you can take a message from a caller and use the Leave Message feature to leave a message for the co-worker if the co-worker has a display telephone. To use Leave Message, you must be on the call and listening to ringing or a busy signal.
17 - Extension & System Directory - Check with your system manager to find out whether these directories have been programmed. The System Directory dials outside numbers that people in your company call often. The Extension Directory dials inside numbers.
18 Using Features There are two ways to select features: • Select the feature from the display. a) Press the Home or Menu button to display the Home or Menu screen or press the Feature button to display the Feature screen. b) Press the unlabeled display button next to the feature abbreviation.
19 - Alarm Clock & Timer - Alarm Clock causes your phone to beep at a certain time; you can set only one alarm. Until canceled, the display shows a bell reminding you that the alarm is on.
20 - Barge-In - If a co-worker is on the phone or using Do Not Disturb, use Barge-In to reach that person in an emergency or if you have special instructions to interrupt. When the extension is busy, you hear a tone and Barge-In connects you to the call; if your co-worker is using Do Not Disturb, his or her telephone rings.
21 - Follow Me - You can use the Follow Me feature when a co-worker is meeting with you or working at your desk, or to answer incoming calls to your co-worker's extension while he or she is away.
22 - Park - To use Park, you must have a DSS with extension numbers (881–888 range) programmed for park zones. Park allows you to hold a call when the recipient can’t be located. Use Park with Pickup (p. 23) and Paging features so that you can locate a co-worker who needs to take a call or pick up a parked call.
23 - Pickup - Use Pickup to pick up a call: • Parked by you or another operator in a park zone • Parked at an extension by a co-worker • Put on hold at an extension • Ringing at a line or extension • Ringing at an extension for a Pickup group of which you are a member (ask your syst e m manager whether you are in a Pickup group).
