Centrex Compatibility; Chaining Bins For Dialing Long Numbers; Split (Alternate) - NEC DSX PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Manual

If you enter a line number and the line is busy when the Speed Dial bin tries to dials out, the user hears
❥
busy tone. If their extension has Line Queuing, they can dial 2 to queue for a line to become free. If they
hang up, the system converts the queue to a Line Callback.
The capability to dial 90-98 to select a Line Group for a Speed Dial call is a permanent feature and not
❥
affected by programming.

Centrex Compatibility

Speed Dial offers unique compatibility with connected Centrex services. A Speed Dial number can accom-
modate both placing a new call and outdialing the stored Speed Dial number on an active Centrex line. This
enables features such as Centrex Transfer and Conference. Speed Dial adheres to the following rules.
1. When a user active on an outside call presses
method), the system examines the contents of the stored Speed Dial bin.
If the first entry in the bin is an
2.
the contents of the bin (ignoring the line selection associated with the bin).
Note that this unique Centrex integration also pertains to voice mail ports accessing stored Speed Dial numbers.

Chaining Bins for Dialing Long Numbers

A Speed Dial number can be up to 32 digits long. The system allows this by automatically using the next
adjacent bin for entries longer than 16 digits. For example, assume you want to store a Personal Speed Dial
number for a banking service (203-926 5400) followed by a pause and your 10 digit customer code
(9876543210). If you store the entries in bin 701, the following occurs:
The system stores the first 16 digits (203 926 5400 Pause 98765) in bin 701.
❥
The system stores the remaining digits (43210) in bin 702.
❥
Chaining Notes:
In the above example, bin 702 is inaccessible for viewing, programming, or dialing. It only becomes
❥
available if you reprogram bin 701 to be 16 digits or less.
Since bin 720 is the last Personal Speed Dial bin, it can contain only 16 digits.

Split (Alternate)

Switch between active calls without Conferencing the calls together.
With Split, an extension user can split (alternate) between a current call and a new call. Split lets the exten-
sion user easily alternate between the calls without joining (Conferencing) the parties together.
