HOLDING HCXTD830, Rev. A01, July 2001 1-31 Holding Hold options Depending on how your 400A is programmed, you can hold calls in up to three different ways. In most cases, you should use the soft park key or a hold loop to hold calls because the key uses a CAP. A description of each of the different methods follows: Note: Soft park and hold loop keys can only be assigned by your system administrator. If you do not have these features programmed on your phone, contact your system administrator. Hold Option Description Soft park You can use the soft park key to place up to 10 calls on hold. The held calls do not occupy a CAP. Calls are automatically retrieved in first-in/first-out order, so the first call placed in soft park hold is the first call retrieved. Although soft park is often used to hold single calls, hold loops are preferred. Hold loops (from one to eight) Hold loops are used to hold a single call. The held call does not occupy a CAP. A single hold loop key represents a single call. Your system administrator must assign this feature to an autodial key for you. Hold key Can be used to place a single call on hold. This is not recommended because the held call occupies a CAP. However, you can only hold a conference using the key.

SWITCHHOOK FLASH HCXTD830, Rev. A01, July 2001 1-37 Switchhook Flash Transferring calls using switch hook- flash The switch hook flash (SHF)-to-a-trunk feature lets you use business/telephone features provided by your central office. These services supplement the features provided by your HCX5000 system. Using the central office features prevents tying up two HCX5000 trunks. Operation To use this feature you must be talking on an incoming call from a central office phone, and the trunk over which this call is received must be set up to use the SHF-to-a trunk feature. (Ask you system administrator if your system is set up for this feature). Example You receive a call over a trunk that is set up for the switch hook-flash-to-a-trunk feature. The call is from Mr. Smith, whose phone is a central office station and who wants to make a reservation. You must transfer the call to the centralized reservation service for your hotel.

Controlling cover busy/no answer You can control the cover busy/no answer setting for calls from outside the facility through your attendant console. However, the covering point registered from the attendant can only be an inside number. All other types of coverage (including cover busy/no answer for outside calls going to an outside number) can only be programmed at the user's station. Registering CBNA for outside calls to an inside number Cover busy/no answer for outside calls going to an inside number can be registered either from a station or from your SelecSet 400A. Neither station nor attendant registration has priority. Therefore, the most recently registered cover busy/no answer setting for outside calls to inside numbers is the active one.

CREDIT LIMIT HCXTD830, Rev. A01, July 2001 2-11 Credit Limit Controlling credit limit As the attendant you can control credit limit on a per-station basis to regulate calling privileges for cash-paying customers. Your facility can choose from three versions of the credit limit feature. See Table 2-2 for a summary of each type. The credit limit feature is only appropriate when it is appropriate to disconnect or disallow calls as a result of a user’s account balance. Ask your system administrator what type of credit limit your facility uses. Table 2-2 Credit limit feature This feature... Does this... Trunk disconnect limits all calls from a credit-limit station to a certain duration. Any call that exceeds that duration is automatically disconnected. This method is appropriate in highly restrictive environments such as prisons or businesses that want to limit usage on certain phones. Lookahead credit pre-calculates a charge and maximum call duration for each call type. Calls are automatically disconnected when the current credit value is exhausted. A warning tone is sent to the caller 60 seconds before a call is disconnected. Positive value prohibits the station from beginning a call if the credit value is below zero, but never disconnects a call.

A01, July 2001 2-23 Wakeup/Reminder Calls About wakeup/ reminder calls Wakeup/reminder calls let you register calls (like an alarm clock in your phone system) to alert users at a certain time. When a wakeup/reminder call is registered, the telephone system automatically calls the station user at the designated time. Terminology Wakeup and reminder are different terms for the same feature. The term wakeup is used for WelCOMM (hotel/motel) systems, while reminder is used for COMMerce (business) systems. In the displays and instructions in this section, wakeup is used for example only. If you have a COMMerce system, you see reminder in the display instead of wakeup. Second wakeups In WelCOMM systems, you can register two wakeup calls for each station. A second wakeup may be required when there are two guests in one room, or when one guest wants a second wakeup just in case he or she falls back asleep after the first. For instructions on registering a second wakeup call, see “To register a second wakeup call:” on page 2-26. Note: You can control wakeup/reminder calls while your console is idle or while you are talking.
