Private Branch Exchanges / Supplementary Services
The A button on the handset or the O button on the base station can be
used in private branch exchanges and to take advantage of the
supplementary services offered by your telephone network provider.
8.1
R button on private branch exchanges
If your telephone is integrated in a private branch exchange, all the functions
associated with the A button on the handset or O button on the base
station, such as transferring calls, automatic callback, etc., can be used. A
private branch exchange requires a Flash time of 100 ms (refer to Chapters
9.4 and 10.3). The dealer where you purchased the exchange can provide
information as to whether the telephone will work properly with the exchange.
8.2
R button and supplementary services offered by your
telephone network provider
Your SWITEL telephone supports the most important supplementary services
offered by your telephone network provider (e.g. brokering, call waiting,
three-way conferencing, etc.). Please contact your telephone network
provider regarding which recall (Flash) time must be set to use the
supplementary services (refer to Chapters 9.4 and 10.3). Please contact your
telephone network provider with regard to enabling the supplementary
services.
8.3
Dialling pause
In the case of private branch exchanges, it is necessary to dial a specific
number (e.g. 9" or 0") in order to obtain the dialling tone for an outside line.
When using some older private branch exchanges, it takes a little time before
the dialling tone becomes audible. Particularly in the case of such private
branch exchanges, it is possible to insert an automatic pause after the
number for the outside line so that the number can be dialled in a continuous
process without having to wait for the dialling tone.
To enter dialling pauses using the handset, refer to Chapter 4.11, and using
the base station telephoning function, to Chapter 5.7.
After dialling the number for the outside line, the telephone then waits 3
seconds before dialling the actual phone number.
The pause can also be entered with the phone numbers in the
phone number memory.
